Returning With A Thousand Favors

Chapter 201

Chapter 201

Gordon Campbell?

Why was he here?

Sophia Rodriguez stood rooted to the ground, trembling uncontrollably.

Was he not supposed to be in Solemwood?

Was he not supposed to be bankrupt?

Why was he here in such a high–end club with others?

“Gordon!” Sophia shouted as she prepared to give chase.

However, she had only taken two steps before she was stopped by the procuress who ran the club..

“What are you doing?” The procuress was a woman in her forties.

While her face was already marked by age, it still looked like she had retained her beauty.

“I just saw my friend.” Sophia looked at the door anxiously.

The procuress followed her gaze and immediately sneered.

“If you want to lie, you should do a better job than that.”

“I am telling the truth. That person is my friend. If you do not believe me, let me go there so I can prove it to you!” Sophia’s countenance was one of anxiety. Gordon would be out of her reach if she did not catch up with him soon..

The procuress folded her arms and regarded her scornfully. “You want me to let you pass? You may not value your life, but I do mine. Do you know who that person is?” Content © provided by NôvelDrama.Org.

“He…” Sophia was at a loss for words.

Gordon might still have some reputation in Solemwood.

However, it still had no ranking in Janeborough.

More importantly, the Campbell family was already bankrupt.

If she said it aloud, it would only make the procuress look down on her even more.

It would also cause the procuress to arrange for her to entertain more difficult and perverted guests.

“You have nothing more to say, right? Well, let me tell you, the leader of that group of people is called Mr. Yetts.”

“Do you know how difficult it is to be called Mister in a place like Janeborough, where wealthy families are everywhere?”

“He controls almost all the entertainment places of the Janeborough Underworld. He was also once known as the God of Gamblers, and even our club is

under his name.”

“He is our boss. You say that you are friends with our boss. Then how is it that you are working here then?” The procuress‘ amusement was increasingly evident with every word she spoke.

Sophia’s eyes widened at that. “He is the boss?”

“Hey, why are you so surprised? Did you not say that you were friends with him? Why is it then that you do not even know his true identity?

Chapter 201

“You little girl, I knew you were a schemer when you first came in, so I warned you that there is no lack of schemers like you here.

“Moreover, it is usually folks like you who have the shortest lifespans. So, put away all your thoughts.

“Receive and entertain the guests well. You still owe me a lot of money, you know. If you play any tricks on me again, I will teach you a lesson!” The procuress‘ tone was very cold.

It was then that Sophia jolted back to reality and went on.

“No, I am not talking about Mr. Yetts, I am talking about the person standing beside Mr. Yetts. He is my fiancé. We almost got married back then, but split up due to unforeseen circumstances.”

“He likes me very much and would willingly do anything for me. If you let me see him, he will help me pay the money I owe you.” Sophia’s countenance was one of pleading.

However, when the procuress heard this, not only was she unsurprised, but she also laughed louder.

“Fiancé? Almost married? You are getting more and more ridiculous.”

“I am not lying to you. That person’s name is Gordon Campbell. He is my fiancé!” Sophia grabbed the procuress‘ arm, her eyes filled with determination.

However, the procuress only calmly retracted her hand and glanced coldly at Sophia in front of her.

“All right. I will take it that what you said before is true, and that man is your fiancé.”

“However, he was standing by Mr. Yetts‘ side just now. You have to know that those who are so close to Mr. Yetts are all his trusted aides.”

“That is a second only to one position. Look at yourself now.”

“You are as pathetic as can be. Do you think someone who is already in such a position would still marry a wilted flower like you?”

The procuress‘ words made Sophia Rodriguez’s face turn pale.

The hands that hung by her sides also could not help but clench into fists.

Once upon a time, back in Solemwood, she had also been an illustrious personage.

When she was out, everyone had to address her as Mrs. Campbell.

But now, in Janeborough, she was described as a wilted flower.

And all of this was because of Marina Bailey!

However, if Gordon Campbell had made a comeback now, she had to return to his side.

He should hate Marina Bailey as much as she did.

Now that he was in Mr. Yetts favor, his crushing Marina Bailey was as easy as crushing an ant.

At the thought of fiat, Sophia quickly calmed himself down.

After a while, she looked up at the procuress in front of her.

“I know you would not believe anything I say now. Do not worry, for I will not do anything to affect the club.

“All you have to do is let me know when that man comes to the club again. Then, I will ensure you believe what I have said.”

The procuress was about to speak when Sophia beat her to it again.

“This is no loss to you at all. If what I said is true and you help me, I will remember your kindness, and when the time is right, I will put in a good word for you with Mr. Yetts. And when that happens, will you still have any worries about not striking it rich?”

“Besides, if what I said just now was a lie, it would not affect you at all even if you told me about it.”

“Even if I offend Mr. Yetts and the others, you can still absolve yourself of all responsibility by saying that I acted rashly without permission and that it has nothing to do with you.”

“This is definitely a profitable collaboration. What reason do you have to not agree?”

The procuress grew thoughtful at Sophia’s words.

Sophia Rodriguez was right.

She was no longer young, and her current position was only that of a procuress.

The previous guests had already found younger and prettier partners.

If her status were not elevated further, her state was bound to be one of misery when she became old.

“You had better not be lying to me. Otherwise, I will let you know what it means to live a life worse than death!” In the end, the procuress decided to give

it a try.

Besides, it was just as Sophia had said.

Even if she was lying to her, she would not suffer any losses.

Sophia’s eyes were blazing with intensity. “Do not worry! I am not lying to you!”

“You better not be.” The procuress snorted icily as she turned to leave.

Sophia, on the other hand, still stared in the direction Gordon Campbell had left.
