The struggle that come with love

The house was particularly quiet in the still of the night. Lesley Ye's ring tone suddenly reverberated around the room. As she heard it, her heart tightened. She had a sinking feeling when she answered the call.

"Lesley, come to the casino now. You have to save me."

The familiar voice at the other end of the line made Lesley Ye frown. She clutched her phone tightly, took a deep breath, and said calmly, "I'll be there soon. Just text me the address."

After getting the address, Lesley Ye rushed to the casino. She trotted over to the hallway and turned at a corner. But all of a sudden, a tall and straight figure appeared in front of her. She was too shocked to even stop, so she bumped into the man. Lesley Ye felt like she hit a brick wall, but the man did not move at all. Taking two steps back, she stared at him in awe.

"Miss, are you okay?"

A cold and pleasant voice rang out in her ears that made her come back to her senses. She rubbed her nose and said, "I'm okay. I'm really sorry. I was in a hurry."

When Lesley Ye got a chance to see the man's face clearly, a trace of astonishment flashed through her eyes. At that moment, there was only a sentence that subconsciously formed in her mind, 'You never forget a pretty face.' Maybe it was even an understatement. But she couldn't think of any other suitable words to describe the man. He was more than just a pretty face. She could say that he was the most handsome man she had ever seen on earth.

He had perfect facial features. The pair of eyes below his delicate eyebrows were as deep and charming as the top-grade dark gem. His nose was tall and straight, and his thin lips were pursed into a beautiful arc. Even his expressionless face made him look more attractive.

The well-tailored black suit that he was wearing made him look taller and well proportioned. He looked noble and elegant. Even if he would just stand in a corner, he would definitely stand out, and people would be delighted to see him.

Derek Yun also stared at Lesley Ye in front of him. She was only wearing an ordinary business suit, and she had a delicate face. However, he thought that her facial features were well-matched, making her look so attractive to him.

He noticed that her nose had turned slightly red, and her eyes were misty. Perhaps she almost cried because of pain. But instead of crying, she politely apologized to him. She didn't even scold him. With this, he thought that the woman was cute.

"I'm really sorry again. I have something else to do, so I'll leave now." After apologizing again, Lesley Ye left in a hurry, without even giving Derek Yun a chance to say anything.

Feeling a little surprised, he just stared at her receding back and sighed. 'She is the first woman I've met who left me behind. Some women even try to bump into me intentionally just to catch my attention. She's interesting, ' he thought inwardly.

Griselda Ye's eyes lit up the moment she saw Lesley Ye approaching. Griselda Ye, who was wearing a low-cut red dress, was about to stand up. But she was pressed on the shoulder by the man beside her.

The bald man sitting opposite Griselda Ye had a ferocious look on his face. His fierce eyes scrutinized Lesley Ye's body. Fortunately, his voice was in sharp contrast with his appearance. "Little girl, are you Griselda's daughter?" he asked gently.

Instead of answering the man's question, Lesley Ye said, "How much does she owe you? I'll pay for her." She stood beside the gambling table calmly without showing any signs of fear.

"Okay," the bald man said. He then cast a glance at his subordinate and ordered, "Give her the bill." The subordinate walked up to Lesley Ye and handed her a piece of paper.
