Chapter 539: Ten Percent Interest!
Translator: End less Fantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
In less than half an hour, Jack had lost more than 20 million in chips to Connor.
No matter where this money was placed, it was definitely an unimaginable sum of money.
After all, this 20 million was enough for a person to live for a lifetime, and it was the kind of life where they did not have to worry about food and clothing.
However, this money was nothing in Connor’s eyes.
Because Connor did not lack this bit of money at all!
Yelena stood behind Connor with an excited expression on her face.
Because Yelena had only taken out three million, and now it had become more than 20 million. How could Yelena not be excited?
Jack looked at the nearly 28 million chips on the gambling table, and his expression was unusually ferocious.
Connor had already asked Yelena to take away the eight million chips, so there was still twenty million left on the table.
Connor felt that if he continued to gamble like this, he would definitely lose. If he lost, all the chips on the table would belong to Jack.
However, Connor had Yelena take eight million. In this case, even if Connor lost, the two of them could still win nearly five million. This money was already a lot for Yelena.
Therefore, Connor felt that if he lost, he would admit defeat and stop playing.
Connor was different from Jack. He didn’t care about his face now. After all, the money in his hands was real.
Jack looked at the chips on the table and was very unwilling.
At this moment, he no longer had the arrogant expression from before. All he could think about was how to win back the money.
Although Jack was a rich heir, 20 million was not a small sum to him.
However, he was in a dire situation, and that was that Jack no longer had any money in his hands.
Moreover, Jack was not from Porthampton and did not have many friends here, so he had to borrow money from others to continue gambling.
“Where is the boss of your casino?”
Jack shouted at the staff beside him expressionlessly.
The staff member was stunned when he heard Jack’s words. Then, he quickly turned to look at Luke, who was standing not far away.
Luke hesitated for a while, then walked to Jack with a smile and asked Jack softly, “Hello, sir. I’m the owner of this casino, Luke Phillips. Is there something I can help you with?”
“Can 1 borrow money here?”
Jack said in a low voice with red eyes.
It was not Jack’s first time visiting a casino. He knew that most casinos would provide loan shark services.
Therefore, in his opinion, Harlem’s Gold would naturally provide such a service.
“Are you planning to borrow money?”
Luke asked with a smile.
“That’s right!”
Jack nodded lightly.
“Then, how much do you plan to borrow?”
Luke looked at Jack and continued to ask.
Jack glanced indifferently at the chips on the table, gritted his teeth, and said softly, “1 want to borrow 20 million!”
“This…”
Luke looked troubled when he heard the number.
After all, he didn’t know Jack, and he didn’t know if Jack had the ability to repay the loan.
“Sir, that’s a huge sum, and we don’t know you, so I might not be able to lend you this money!”
Luke said in a low voice.
“My name is Jack, and my father is Jefferey Fenton. You should have heard of my father’, right?
“If you haven’t heard of him, you can ask your subordinates to ask around. Even the casinos in Horton and Masonville won’t hesitate if 1 say 1 want to borrow 100 million!”
Jack said confidently.
Luke was surprised when he heard that.
He didn’t expect Jack’s father to be Jefferey Fenton, so he asked Jack in disbelief, “Are you the young master of the Fenton Family?”
“You know my father?”
Jack glanced at Luke and asked calmly.
“I do!”
Luke nodded slightly, then turned to look at Connor, as if asking for his opinion.
After all, if Luke lent money to Jack, and Jack used the money to gamble with Connor, he was worried that he would offend Connor by doing so.

After hesitating for a moment, Connor felt that if Luke didn’t lend Jack money, Jack would definitely not let it go. Moreover, even if he lost, he could help Yelena win five million dollars, which was a lot of money, so he gently nodded and acquiesced to Luke’s loan.
Jack looked confused when he saw the eye contact between Connor and Luke, because he felt that the relationship between the two was not simple. Otherwise, Luke would not have looked at Connor like that.
However, Jack was obviously in a hurry. He couldn’t care less about that. All he wanted to do now was to win back the money he had lost.
“What are you still standing there for? Hurry up and bring the loan contract over!”
Luke turned and shouted at the staff beside him.
“Alright, Mr. Phillips!”
The manager agreed and turned to leave.
A few minutes later, the staff returned to Luke with a loan contract and handed it to him.
When Luke took the contract, he smiled and said to Jack, “Mr. Fenton, this is the loan contract. There is the repayment period and interest on it.”
“1 don’t need to look at all that.”
Jack shouted with a frown.
“I think you’d better take a look!”
Luke replied indifferently.
After hearing Luke’s words, Jack couldn’t help but be stunned for a moment. Then, he picked up the contract and read it carefully.
When Jack saw the monthly interest of ten percent written on the contract, he was completely stunned.
He turned his head and shouted at Luke, “Why is the monthly interest rate of your casino so high?”
“I’m sorry, Mr. Fenton. Our establishment has always had this interest rate. If you can accept it, then sign it. If you can’t, then forget it!”
Luke replied with a smile.
It was obvious that Luke had deliberately doubled the interest rate. He hoped that this way, Jack would stop as soon as possible. After all, if Jack continued to lose like this, he would definitely have to borrow money, and it might cause big trouble.
Since Luke had raised the interest rate, Jack probably would not dare to borrow from them. Connor could also win some money. This was a good thing.
“Mr. Fenton, do you still want to borrow money?”
Luke asked Jack with a smile when he saw that Jack hadn’t said anything..
