Chapter 928
Keegan began looking into the people who introduced gambling to his college classmate. Each of them got arrested two months after the funeral. However, it did not bring his college classmate back from death. The maximum sentence for gambling was only two to three years at most. The main culprit was the one who owned the casino.
At the beginning of the year, Keegan had already discovered the location and requirements to enter Yoven’s two underground casinos. However, he did not immediately take action because of the extensive number of personnel involved. He knew he would be making enemies if he did anything. If it was not for the incident with Stella, Keegan would have waited for a better opportunity to lock Yoven up, but he could not.
Shortly after Aldor had left the office, Keegan received a text from Xenia. [ I’ve retrieved all the photos that are in Albert’s hands. He doesn’t have a backup, and I’ve deleted everything on his phone.]
[Thank you,] Keegan replied.
[Your lover asked me to fake a pregnancy to scare Hylda. Should I do it?]
Keegan laughed and replied, [I told you before. Just do as she says. You don’t have to keep asking for my permission. Text me if you need assistance. I assure you that you’ll receive what I promised, if not more.]
Xenia was calm. She faked a pregnancy test, threw it into the bathroom trash can, and came out with a pale face.
Albert was on the phone at that time. When he was done talking on the phone, he noticed Xenia’s face and asked, “What’s wrong? Are you not feeling well?’
Xenia nodded and said, “Just a little nauseous. Maybe it’s something I ate.” Albert did not question her further. Instead, he said, TH go to the bathroom for a bit, and then we can head out for dinner.”
Xenia’s expression changed slightly. “Why don’t you go to the bathroom outside? The nanny didn’t come over and clean it today.”
“That’s okay,” Albert replied, not noticing how strange she was acting. “You should go change.” After he said that, he went to the bathroom.
Albert had been overjoyed recently after knowing that he could transfer the 50 million dollars into his account in two months once he successfully washed them. To him, money can solve all problems.
Albert was thinking about how he should coax Stella into agreeing to his terms when he looked down and saw a pregnancy test with two red lines in the trash. He was stunned for a moment and decided to take a closer look. There were clearly two lines.
Xenia was the only one who lived in the house while Albert came over occasionally. He had installed security cameras in the house because he was afraid that she would spend his money on other men. Albert knew that he was the only man who was close to Xenia. That means… She’s bearing my child!’
Albert was excited all of a sudden. ‘What in the world is happening? Two surprises in one year?! I couldn’t get my partners pregnant when I was younger, but now?!’ He pulled up his pants and ran out of the bathroom without washing his hands.
“Xenia, are you pregnant?” he asked.
Xenia immediately became flustered. “N-no,” she said.
