Chapter 1561 Making Trouble
The other female prisoners left the canteen with mixed feelings of envy, jealousy, and gratitude.
On the way to the infirmary, Bonnie couldn't help but ask the police officer beside her some questions.
The policeman knew that Bonnie received special treatment in the prison, so he was happy to oblige.
“Sir, do you know who the woman numbered fifty-six is?“
The woman that Bonnie had mentioned was the one who had been sitting near her when the incident happened. After careful observation, Bonnie had noticed that when those female prisoners had been making trouble for her, all of them had glanced at the woman numbered fifty-six.
Hearing that, the officer was a little shocked. Then, he asked, “Why? Did she cause you any trouble?“
Quickly, she shook her head and denied it. “No, no. I was just curious. It seems that everyone is scared of her.“
Upon hearing that, the officer smiled and answered, “The woman numbered fifty-six is the leader of the women's prison. Naturally, all the female prisoners fear her. If she doesn't bully you, maybe you can try to befriend her and have a good relationship with her. We are capable of protecting you, but there will be times when we're not there to do so. It would be good for you to be friends with her.“
It was forbidden to develop any superior-inferior relationships inside the prison, but so far, the female prisoner numbered fifty-six hasn't done anything wrong. So, the police officers just let her continue to establish her dominance over other female prisoners inside the prison.
Deep in thought, Bonnie nodded. Even though the woman hadn't personally harmed her in any way, she still felt as if she was hostile towards her.
After receiving treatment at the infirmary, Bonnie walked back to her cell.
There was no privacy in the cell. Even though Bonnie stayed alone in a separate cell, there were still other female prisoners staying in the cells next to hers.
When she returned to her cell, she saw several female prisoners glaring at her.
It made Bonnie anxious. Their stares were intense. In a desperate attempt to calm herself down, she decided to lie down and cover her eyes with her arms.
She thought that she would be fine as long as she didn't look at them, but how could these envious female prisoners make it easy for her?
“Hey, whore. Did you go and sleep with that man again?“ a cold voice called out. Upon hearing this voice, all the other female prisoners stopped glaring at Bonnie right away.
Bonnie sat up curiously and looked at the direction in which the voice came from. She wasn't that surprised when she saw that it was the woman numbered fifty-six. This text is property of Nô/velD/rama.Org.
As soon as this woman spoke, all the other female prisoners around them shut their mouths at once. After all, none of them dared to interrupt the leader of the prison.
“What do you have against me?“ Bonnie asked, choosing to ignore her malicious words. She just didn't understand why this woman seemed to have a vendetta against her. Bonnie couldn't remember when and where she had offended her.
The woman sneered, “Do I need a reason to be against you? Each woman in this prison was bullied one way or another. If you kneel and beg for mercy now, then I will tell everyone to stop bullying you and even take you as my follower.“
Hearing this, Bonnie frowned. It seemed that this woman was unreasonable. Bonnie didn't see the point in talking to unreasonable people.
Besides, the police officers were standing guard just outside their cells. With the presence of the officers, Bonnie believed that the other female prisoners would not dare harm her. To minimize the chances of the other prisoners causing trouble to her, she could just stay inside her cell and only go out during mealtime.
With this thought in mind, Bonnie no longer responded to the woman. She just lay back down and went to sleep.
When the woman numbered fifty-six saw how Bonnie ignored without even showing an ounce of respect, she was livid, but her anger quickly disappeared. Instead, a strange smirk appeared on her face.
Bonnie thought that the prison was too complicated for her liking. Even if the guards were nearby, the other prisoners would still find ways to bully her.
Whenever she went to the toilet, a basin of ice-cold water would be poured down over her head. There were no guards or cameras inside the toilet, so it was impossible to find out the culprit.
On the days they were allowed outside for some fresh air, Bonnie would stay alone in a corner. Yet, the balls that the other prisoners would play with would somehow get accidentally thrown at her.
When the guards would come out to ask what had happened, Bonnie could never find proof that it was intentional.
After so much suffering inside the prison, Bonnie suddenly got sick and developed a high fever in her cell.
Meanwhile, at the company, Jacob stared at the documents in his hands. He realized that for the time being, he couldn't take any actions against the KING Group. So, he would have to deal with Darren and Bill in some other way.
It wasn't long ago that Darren had subdued Jacob with no power to fight back. Thankfully, Jacob was able to get his company back on track. This was how he came up with the plan to drain Darren of his money. He thought that if Darren didn't have any funds, then he could easily defeat him.
One of Jacob's friends in F Country sent him an email, which mentioned a casino. The casino didn't seem to have anything to do with Darren or Bill at first glance. Jacob's friend just needed help to complete some formalities to get the casino transferred to a new owner.
Upon review, Jacob found that the boss of this casino in F Country should be Darren, but its previous owner had been Bill. However, there were no signs that either of them were had been involved in this particular casino. Was it new?
Jacob called Sam in. The latter had just sorted out the documents he had collected. While he was walking into Jacob's office, Sam asked himself, 'Did the boss come up with a new idea?'
“Take a seat.“ As always, Jacob was a man of few words. Sam was used to this. He sat on the chair on the opposite side. He made sure that he didn't lean too much so that he could stand up at once when Jacob needed him to.
“Go and check out the casino in F Country. I want to know if it is still connected to Darren or Bill in any way,“ Jacob ordered.
“Okay, I will check it out as soon as I go back to my office. Please give me one day.“
With raised brows, Jacob looked at him and said, “Hmm. With your current skills, I think half a day should be enough.“
After Sam went out to complete his tasks, Jacob met with several clients according to the schedule arranged by his secretary. As expected from Jacob's most competent assistant, Sam arrived with the
information he had asked for in less than half a day.
While reporting to Jacob, Sam held several documents in his hands.
“Mr. Gu, according to the results of my investigation, the casino you mentioned this morning was transferred to Darren by Bill back when Darren fled to F Country. Apparently, he threatened Bill to transfer the casino to him. The person managing the casino over there is a loyal follower of Darren. The management staff was also carefully selected by Darren himself. Harlan goes there regularly to check on the situation of the casino. My sources say that the casino is very important to Darren.“
“Hmm…“ Jacob nodded as he listened attentively to Sam's report. After a few seconds, Jacob stated, “The casino is probably the only source of money for Darren. It's not a surprise though. He needs another source of income just to keep that company of his afloat. I need more information about this. Get someone to go to the casino and investigate the situation there.“
Sam understood what Jacob had meant, so he arranged a person to do it as soon as possible. It would be best if the person could sneak into the casino to get the information first hand.
On the other side, Darren was watching the operation of the casino through the surveillance footage inside his office on the floor of the highest office building in Jingshi City. In the past few days, he had contacted several gangsters in the area and the condition of the casino had improved a lot. No one dared to make trouble in his casino.
Harlan didn't go up to Darren's office until he finished his daily review of the situation of the casino below. He could tell that Darren was in a good mood. Harlan was also quite happy about the promising situation of the casino. He diligently reported to Darren, “Boss, the casino's profits this month have increased tremendously compared to last month. We have earned twice as much! Should we consider opening another casino?“
