Mr. Kane Got Blacklisted by Eleven Jewell

Chapter 927

If Olivia had not stepped in that night, the incident would have taken an unimaginable turn. Keegan clutched the

document in his hand. "Does Marshall know about this?” He asked after a long time.

“Mr. Moore went to the hotel and called the police that night. He may have been unaware. And, Mr. Saun withdrew

from the lawsuit to protect his reputation since it was Ms. Saun in the hotel room at that time," Aldor replied.

'Unaware, huh?' Keegan thought. After a long time, he put the file on the table and said in a deep voice, "Assist the

police in finding the two underground casinos in Eastville. The holidays are coming. We should help them with their

search."

Aldor understood what Keegan meant. Yoven owned the two underground casinos in Eastville. The gamblers range

from high-ranking officials and dignitaries down to peddlers and traffickers. There were all kinds of people in the

gambling ring. A few of them commit suicide every year because of their loss. It was a social cancer.

Everyone in the business industry knew who the casino's owner was, but the location would constantly change. Only

those who got invited by a member of the casino could join the club. They would have to go through a series of

trials to confirm their identity before they were allowed to enter.

Since the gamblers were the ones to bring people in, none of them were willing to expose anything about the

casino. Those who did not indulge in such activities but knew of the matter kept quiet because they did not want to

get in trouble. The casinos would not have been in operation for so many years, and Yoven would not have been

able to launder so much money without the help of insiders.

One of Keegan's college classmates committed suicide by jumping off a building last year because of his addiction.

He was a manager of an investment bank with an annual income of tens and millions of dollars, and he was the

best among his peers. But, even so, he got addicted to gambling and started slacking off at work. The Human

Resource team in his company tried to talk him out of it several times, but none of their advice worked. So, they

fired him. He then started going to the casino day and night.

At the beginning of last year, he desperately went to Keegan and asked Keegan to lend him some money. He told

him that one of his family members had gotten a chronic disease and needed the money to pay their medical

expenses since he had lost all his money in the stock market.

Keegan lent him two million dollars without any hesitation. The manager returned the same month and told him

that the money was insufficient to cover the bills. Keegan thought that it was a little strange and asked Aldor to

investigate it.

They found out that the once golden boy had become addicted to gambling. He lost all his fortune, and his wife and

children left him. Yet, he did not repent. Keegan then realized that he had used the money he lent him to satisfy his

gambling needs. Not only did Keegan stop lending him money, but he also reported the incident to the police.

Gambling was a bottomless pit. Keegan knew that no matter how much money he lend his old classmate, he would

never get it back as long as he kept gambling.

After one month of being detained in prison, the bank manager was released. Keegan wrote a letter of

recommendation for him and helped him get a job. However, he stole his client's money and disappeared in just

two months.

The company called the police, and they put out a BOLO for him. Two weeks later, they found his body on the west

side of a building. The cause of death was a fall from height. On the roof of the building was a suicide note which

entailed how much debt he was in, how he was unable to pay forthem, and how ashamed he was of himself.

Keegan attended his old college classmate's funeral and witnessed the tragedy that befell. His head was completely

cracked open, and it was a ghastly sight. His 60-year-old father's hair turned gray overnight, and his infant child was

still waiting to be fed.

Many of his friends did not show up after knowing that he had jumped to his death due to gambling debt. It was a

depressing scene. The man's father pulled Keegan aside and gave him some of his son's remaining valuables,

promising to help his son pay off his debt.

Aldor had attended the funeral with Keegan. Keegan's expression was extremely gloomy when they came back

from the funeral home. He told Aldor that his classmate was particularly frugal when they were still in school. He

meticulously wrote down every amount of money he spent.

And, whenever he exceeded the budget for one of his meals, he would only eat oatmeal for his next meal. He

would then use the remaining money from his allowance to buy study materials.

"How could someone like him become addicted to gambling?" Keegan asked.

Gambling addictions were similar to drug addictions; joined the wrong group of people, and they would peer

pressure you bit by bit until you were done.

Keegan could not control his emotions. The valuables in his hand felt heavier by the minute. He had taken gambling

addictions lightly and set his expectations high on the willpower of men.
