They Bet On Me Begging I Left With Everything Novels & Stories

while I stewed inside. My only friend, Amanda, or Mandy, saved the day. She turned up at the mansion, completely ignoring Carmen’s silent anger, and walked to Roman, whom she lifted into her arms and kissed. My little boys adore my friend, the daughter of a Capo, though a more powerful one, higher up in the hierarchy than my father had been.

As a sign of surrender, I slowly raised my hands. "P—please don't hurt me," I stuttered. I was taken aback when he pressed the gun even harder against my head. Just a single touch of his gun will most likely mean the end of my life. "You won't get hurt if you don't fight back, so walk!" he yelled at me. I opened the kitchen door, praying with each step that someone would come to my aid. What I have in mind now is that Axel will help me, but I have lost hope that he will still come for me tonight because I am just a worthless person to him. Besides, he had no idea that my life was in danger right now.

"I'm just taking back what is mine' Vega" "My company is not yours," I said, my voice getting louder even tho I was trying to hold back. "You built it with the money you won off me". "Yeah I did and I won't apologize for it because I had to take a major risk to win that money. I had to do it to give my mom and me a better life. I put all my life saving into the bet, did you think I was just going to give it all up for someone who told me that I was all a game to him".

I walked away from our table but before I could even pass him he held my hand. “Don’t leave me… I’m begging you.” he begged as he kneeled in front of me. “Babe, please… I need you.” "I'm sorry, but I don't need you." I answered, emotionless as I withdrew my hand from him. We’ve got people’s attention. Before they could even realize who the man in front of me was, I turned my back on Wregan and walked out of the cafè. ***

I stumble outside and the pre-dawn darkness envelops me, a chill in the air awakens my senses and leaves me breathless. My hands are shaking as I fumble for my phone. The screen blazes to life, illuminating my face in its harsh glow. I take a deep breath, steeling myself for what I know I must do. Sacrifice everything I've got. Every chip, every coin, every shred of dignity – I'm pushing it all to the center of the table. I hit the call button, my voice gritty, resolute as I speak into the phone. “I'm throwing in the towel. You win. Congratulations. Every asset, every account, every last penny with my name on it – it's all yours.."

I fell to the floor and felt dizzy. "Give us your bag!" His shout echoed around but no one attended. I sobbed while holding my cheek. I felt my cheeks go numb. "H-have mercy on me...I really don't have any m-money...I-I just went 123 i-in the jeep..." I begged in tears. "We don't care! Give us your bag!" insisted a man. I shook my head. I was lifted up when he suddenly grabbed my bag. "Brother, don't!" I begged but they didn't budge.

"How can you be heartless? Even you? How will I get five million dollars does money grow on trees? I was so glad you were calling me after so long but only for you to ruin it!" "Don't talk like that it's just... Shit spiralled out of control." "Do you think M.T.C pays me in millions? I'm still finding my feet and even if I'm paid that amount I won't be glad spending it in debts and your gambling addiction." "Please don't judge and abandon me there's something you can do anything." He begged seriously and my anger subsided having to ransack my brain who was I going to beg for assistance? If I don't help him he will get killed. His actions were wrong but I can't let him die.

He looked like someone had drained all the life out of him, leaving behind only an empty shell. But I felt nothing looking at his pain. I picked up the check, tore it cleanly in half, and placed both pieces on the table. "Elder," I said, my voice steady and clear, "that's not necessary. I'm already prepared to go to Northern Shadow Pack. I'm leaving today and will never return to bother your family again." The elder's eyebrows rose in genuine surprise. He had clearly expected me to grab the money and run like the gold-digger he believed me to be.

I asked, my voice trembling but laced with desperation. Theo froze, his sharp eyes narrowing as he turned back to face me. There was a flicker of curiosity in his gaze, like he was intrigued by my audacity. “What other deal?” he asked, his tone cold but somehow amused. I took a deep breath, my hands shaking, but I couldn’t stop now. “What if I offer myself? I’ll work for you—no salary. Everything I make will go to you. Just please, let my father go.”

A very old, very tired stranger. "I'm here," he said. "I'm right here." "I heard you," she whispered. "You did?" "In the dark. You were... bargaining." Liam flinched. He wiped his eyes with the back of his hand. "I was begging," he admitted. "I was offering the universe everything I had. The company. The money. My arm." "Did they take it?" "No," he said. He smiled, a broken, beautiful expression. "They gave you back for free."
