An hour later Evelyn was walking down the alleyway leading to the underground gambling den. The alleyway was dark and narrow, the walls covered in graffiti and the ground littered with trash. A lone streetlight flickered at the end of the alley, casting an eerie glow over the scene.

A sense of foreboding filled the air, a feeling that something dangerous and illicit lay just beyond the door.

Then, with a thud, he dropped to his knees. "Katie, I was wrong! I know I was wrong! Amanda never loved me! The moment I got fired and lost my income, she changed the locks and wouldn’t even let me see Gabriel! "She said the house is in her name, and she told me to get out of her life… I was fooled, Katie! "I don’t even have a place to stay now. My parents fell ill from the stress… Please, help me. Please." Watching him cry like this, full of regret, I felt nothing but disgust.
