Love is the Sunshine

Chapter 593 Have Fun In a Casino

"Do you honestly believe that I've never dreamt of living a happy married life with you?

Taking in a deep breath, Rhys heaved a heavy sigh and said, "I wanted to be a good husband to you,

to treat you well. But you know that I've never been such an ambitious person. I just wanted to do my

part and, at the very least, be a decent second son of the An family, but you're always pushing me to

go head to head with the host in the An Family.

If you ask me, I don't really see what's so good about that. Am I not allowed to be contented with what

we have? Why do I have to keep wanting more? I'm lucky enough to be able to enjoy my life as the

second son of the An family. Why should I bother fighting for the right to be the heir?"

Since birth, Rhys had always been like this. His personality trait had been innate to him. Meaning to

say, he was nothing like Marcus.

"But you won't ever stop pushing me and forcing me to do things I never really wanted to do.

Home is meant to be a place where you could be at ease, but right now, it feels more like a battlefield

to me, because I am being forced to hear you run your mouth and complain about every little thing all

the damn time.

Do you think any man in his right mind would want to stay in a place like that every single day?" —

After keeping it all in his chest for such a long time, Rhys exploded and hurled in a low voice, "Eunice, I

seriously wanted to be a respectable husband. But have ever really given me a chance to do that?"

Then, he furiously loosened his collar and walked out the door.

"Don't bother waiting up for me. I won't be coming home for dinner!"

Feeling so helpless when she watched Rhys slam the door as he left, Eunice threw herself into the sofa

and burst into tears.

"Am I the one who's wrong?

Even if I didn't try to push him, could he have really been a better husband to me?

Was it really all my fault? Am I the one to blame?

Oh, dear God, why is it so unfair? What did I do to deserve this?

Why couldn't I marry Terence? Instead, I got tied up with a playboy like Rhys?" she whispered under

her breath.

By the time Carla and Violet were about to finally leave the shopping mall, it had already gotten late.

The mall was quite huge, so it took them quite a while to check every single shop. Carla were leisurely

chatting along as they walked around. Since they were already there, they got the kids some clothes as

well. When they were done having dinner and finally walked out of the mall, night had already fallen.

Carla was just planning to take Sally back to the Seaview Villa now that they were done.

Be that as it might, it looked like Violet wanted to have a bit more fun.

From out of nowhere, she took out a fancy invitation with golden letters on it and showed it to Carla.

"Look at this, Carla. I found it in William's car when he drove me back home yesterday.

We might be able to have some fun in this place,"

Violet suggested, giving her a cunning gaze. "It's been so long since we did something like this. Why

don't we just let others pick up the kids and bring them home? Then, we can have some time to relax

and enjoy ourselves a bit more."

Shooting Violet quite a suspicious glance, Carla took the invitation she was holding and looked at it

closely.

"A casino?" Carla blurted out, sounding so surprised.

"Bingo! I think we need to do something more exciting in order to relax. Going shopping all day long

would be a bit too bland."

A smile sprawled across Violet's face, with her eyes glistening in anticipation. "You know what? This

casino actually opened just recently, so it's going to hold a free grand opening event. Why don't we go

there and try our luck? Come on! What do you say?"

From the way it looked, Violet seemed to be waiting with baited breath to go to the casino with her. For

that reason, Carla couldn't hold back and let out a soft chuckle, "Violet, do you think it would be

appropriate for two women to enter that kind of place?"

It should be worth mentioning that the large casinos in JA City were nothing like the other usual casinos

some might be familiar with. Only the wealthiest of people or the most influential celebrities would walk

into the large casinos and they tend to be high rollers as well.

"Of course, it is. What's wrong with that? There's two of us. Or, do you mean to tell me that you don't

have the guts to go?"

Violet was deliberately trying to provoke Carla.

About an hour later, a car pulled over by the entrance of the newly opened luxury casino. Carla and

Violet had arrived.

They could see different kinds of fancy cars parked all over the parking lot even from a mile away, not

to mention those which were parked in the underground garage.

Violet successfully egged Carla into coming. And she had already asked someone to send the kids

back home.

It should go without saying that it would be impossible to bring a kid into a place like this.

"Carla, I guess we don't have to hang out a lot. But I think we seriously need to make ourselves

comfortable in this kind of place. Let's have a good time!

And besides, there's probably a lot of wealthy ladies hanging around here, so, you know, you have to

get used to this kind of environment. The guys may come here every now and then to have some fun

during festivals or holidays. That means they would probably need our company, so you shouldn't be

so apprehensive when that time comes, right?"

As Violet stepped out of the car, she still hadn't forgotten to give Carla a constant reminder.

Upon what Violet said, Carla pondered about it for a second and realized that she actually had a point,

so a grin appeared on her face. Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDrâ/ma.O(r)g!

"It's alright. I get it. We're already here anyway. No one's going to blame you for it."

It wasn't that hard to guess that Violet was just trying to address the elephant in the room—her

dragging Carla to a place like this.

"Ha-ha, I'm just a bit worried that Mr. Terence might think I'm being such a bad influence to you." Violet

suddenly wrapped her arms around Carla, looking ecstatic.

"Oh, I almost forgot. Here, go ahead and put your glasses on.

Violet lightly patted her head and remembered the pair of glasses which she picked out for Carla in the

shopping mall.

If she was wearing this, no one would be able to recognize Carla if they weren't really that familiar with

what she actually looked like.

As soon as they entered the casino, the two finally realized how hot it was inside.

At first, Carla and Violet were thinking that they should try their luck at the lower grade casino, only to

find that it was already brimming with people.

It shouldn't be surprising that people would want to play it safe.

Because of that, they had no choice but to head toward the second floor and the third floor where the

medium grade casino was located. Unfortunately for them, all of the seats on these floors were

occupied as well.

There was a free event in the casino, so everyone wanted to grab the opportunity to receive free chips.

A number of people were hoping to make a fortune without having to spend a cent out of their pockets.

Carla and Violet gave each other a glance.

Now that they had come this far, they were a bit hesitant to leave the place without even doing

anything.

In the end, the two women who were not really sure of their own strength, mustered up the courage

and headed for the higher-grade casino, which was located on the sixth floor.

As it turned out, there were significantly less people in this place compared to those on the lower floors.

Those who were brave enough to gamble here were well-off folks, including people from the richest

families, noble ladies and successful elites from all over JA City.

It was only appropriate that the service here was first-class as well.

The waiters up here who dealt cards were all quite good-looking.

All in all, the casino was divided into the lower grade, medium grade, and higher grade levels. That

meant each person would receive free chips that amounted to one hundred, five hundred and one

thousand.

That would mean every player in this fancy casino right now would be able to get one thousand chips.

One thousand might seem like quite a big amount of money.

However...

"Oh, my! I lost again?" Damn it! I suck at this!"

With her eyes glued to the roulette wheel, Violet was raring to move it herself.

"It's okay, Violet. Didn't you say that we're just here to try it out and have a bit of fun? Take it easy... "

Carla said as she patted Violet's shoulder and tried to comfort her.

"Well, do you still have some chips left, Carla?

Violet's eyes were sparkling with such expectation.

Taking out her chip box, Carla raised her eyebrows. "I've just won some chips from the slot machine.

Let's give that gambling table a shot."

Despite looking quite fearless, Violet was actually already feeling a bit reluctant to continue at this

point.

"What? You know what? Carla, I guess you're right. We just came here to have some fun. There's no

need for us to take that risk whatsoever."

This time, Violet was the one who was turning tail. After all, she had already lost all of her chips, so she

was afraid that she might end up losing her own money.

"You're the one who brought me here, remember? And now you're the one who wants to back out?

Come on, it's not that big of a deal. I can just ask Terence to come to help us out in case we lose. Let's

just go already."

Then, Carla had to drag Violet to look for an empty seat over the gambling area. She just watched

them for a while. The players didn't seem to be betting with a large amount, so she had the option to

spend a little money. Everything simply depended on luck. There was no way they'd keep losing all the

time, right?

Since she had already come all this way, she would never go back until she had enjoyed herself to the

fullest.

When she was younger, there was no way in hell she would've gone to a place like this.

However, things were much too different now. A lot had changed around her since then. With Terence

having her back, she was able to have some fun here.

"Here! Carla, I found a seat!"

Now that there was a seat freed up on the gambling table, Violet immediately gestured toward Carla for

her to come over quickly.
