Chapter 1664: Even

Connor saw the expression on Vanessa's face and knew that what he said just now was very effective.

So, he quickly told Vanessa about what happened. Connor deliberately made it sound very serious, which made Vanessa blame herself even more.

"Vanessa, you should know how capable I am. If it was under normal circumstances, those assassins would definitely not be my match. However, at that time, Chelsea and I had not slept for a day and a night. I was in no shape to deal with those assassins!"

Connor looked at Vanessa and continued.

At this time, Vanessa realized that her joke had gone a little too far, so she was very guilty. She asked Connor nervously, "Then… were you and Chelsea injured?"

"We didn't suffer any serious injuries. Chelsea almost drowned and was later rescued by me. The two of us were quite lucky. If not, we would have probably died…"

Connor hurriedly replied.

"This is all my fault. If I hadn't asked you to give Chelsea the perfume, things wouldn't have turned out like this. I was just joking at that time..."

Vanessa said to Connor with a guilty expression.

Connor looked at Vanessa and hesitated for a couple of seconds before saying softly, "Vanessa, there is actually something that I don't get…"

"What is it?"

Vanessa blinked and asked Connor.

"I have never offended you, and I didn't do anything to let you down. Why did you want to harm me?"

Connor asked in confusion.

"It's because..."

Vanessa was so anxious that she almost told him the truth, but she quickly calmed down and said lightly, "Actually, I didn't mean to harm you. I was just joking with you, but I didn't expect you to not even know that Chelsea was allergic to perfume…"

"I see…"

Connor could feel that Vanessa wasn't telling him the truth, but he didn't intend to continue asking. After all, the most important thing now was to coax Vanessa. Otherwise, if Vanessa really resigned, Connor really didn't know who would be able to manage the casino and the club.

"Vanessa, no matter what, I was indeed a little too impulsive today and even hit you. What can I do to make you forgive me?"

Connor asked Vanessa sincerely.

When Vanessa heard Connor's words, a strange look appeared on her face.

She felt ashamed whenever she thought about how Connor had slapped her butt.

"Although you've done something wrong, I did something wrong too. I've caused such a huge problem for you, so we're even now…"

Vanessa said softly to Connor.

Connor couldn't help but be stunned for a moment after hearing Vanessa's words. He then hurriedly said, "Vanessa, does that mean you'll forgive me?"

"I guess!"

Vanessa nodded lightly.

"Then, are you still planning to resign? This casino and the club really can't live without you now!"

Connor asked Vanessa.

Vanessa looked at Connor from head to toe and said with a smile, "I've already forgiven you. How can I resign?"

"That's great…"

Connor was really happy. Connor would do anything to keep Vanessa.

Seeing that Vanessa's mood seemed to have improved a lot, he took the initiative to chat with her for a while. When it was almost time, Connor asked, "Vanessa, why don't I send you home?"

"You won't say things like me leaving early, will you?"

Vanessa took out her phone and asked Connor softly.

"Vanessa, I was just joking with you. Don't take it seriously. After all, you have to take care of both the club and the casino. It doesn't matter if you're late or if you leave early…"

Connor hurriedly explained with a smile.

"Forget it. If you use this to make things difficult for me again, I won't be able to stand it!"

Vanessa pouted and said to Connor.

"Vanessa, I was really joking with you. Don't take it seriously. Anyway, there's nothing else to do in the casino now."

Connor advised softly.

Hearing Connor's words, Vanessa hesitated for a couple of seconds, then she said lightly, "Alright. Wait for me for a while. I'll go get changed!"

"Okay!"

Connor nodded.

Vanessa turned around and walked into the lounge. In order to prevent Connor from suddenly coming in, Vanessa locked the door this time.

When Connor heard the sound of the door locking, he seemed a little helpless. He sighed softly and said, "I've seen most of what I need to see. What's the use of locking the door now?"

Although Connor said so, he actually didn't have any intentions of peeping at Vanessa.

About ten minutes later, Connor left the casino with Vanessa, and then he drove her home.

Vanessa invited Connor to go upstairs to sit, but when he thought about them being alone, and her being so very alluring, he decided against it. If he were to go up, he might not be able to control himself, so Connor found an excuse to turn her down.

Connor then drove home alone.

Rachel Wallace was still in York with Janson Wallace, so no one was at home. Connor didn't know why, but it felt strange that Rachel wasn't at home. The room was very quiet.

Connor washed up and then lay on the bed to rest.

After settling Vanessa's matter, Connor only had one thing to do, and that was to wait for Yaakov Ward to contact him.

Yaakov was different from Tenner Ward. Connor had very little information about Yaakov now. Connor had never met Yaakov before. Even Tenner could not find Yaakov. Therefore, the easiest way was to wait for Yaakov to take the initiative to find Connor.

After all, Yaakov's hard drive was still in Connor's hands. Moreover, Connor had already asked Reena Satchwell to release a portion of the contents. Yaakov would definitely know that the hard drive was in Connor's hands. Connor felt that Yaakov would definitely take the initiative to contact him.

While thinking about all that, Connor slowly entered dreamland.
