But as for them? They simply didn't know how to appreciate what they had.
It would have been one thing if they had just left her in the countryside, but they had brought her to the city and lived together for several years.
To think they didn't cherish that bond even a little, but instead wanted to tear her apart!
The whole family was simply venomous.
How did people like that deserve to enjoy any of this?
She was going to make them lose everything! They would face their karma.
"Alright, whatever you do, I support you! Don't forget, you have the Ellington family behind you. The Ellington family is your shield!"
Elena nodded. This sister of hers was truly a friend worth having!

The Underground Casino.
"How could I lose again!" Derek slammed his chips onto the table, seething with rage.
"Mr. Sterling, keep going. Maybe the next hand will be the turning point. Did you hear about the young master from the York family yesterday? He was a mess in the beginning, but he turned it all around against the wind later on," a friend beside him urged.
"Cut the crap! How could I not know about something that big?"
Derek loved to gamble. Coupled with the recent troubles at home, he thought that if he could win some money in this casino to bring back, his parents would surely praise him.
But he had lost every cent he brought with him!
"Are you still playing?"
"I'm out of money!" Derek said, looking a bit embarrassed.
"Young Master, I have a way to get some money. Do you want to hear it?"
"What way?"
The man whispered a few words in his ear, and Derek was immediately interested.
"Alright! Arthur, as long as you can lend me the money to turn this around, I definitely won't forget your cut!" Derek patted Arthur on the shoulder.
Soon, Arthur led him into the inner sanctum of the underground casino.
The place was guarded by men in black suits, every one of them muscular with terrifying tattoos on their arms.
Derek felt a wave of nervousness as he entered.
