As the casino host approached them, Tanaga turned his back to call his butler. And so, the host did not see his face and did not even recognize him.

"What's the problem? Why is your voice so loud? You should not raise your voice to any of our customers. You know that!"The casino host whispered to the security guard.

"It would be better if you eat first. You must be starving." The casino host said while smiling, but you can see the warning in her eyes as if to say 'Get out of my sight or else I do not know what I would do with you if I can't control myself.'

The security guard had the sense to follow the orders of the casino host. He called another security guard to replace him. His reliever arrived after a few minutes.

Meanwhile, Ashley followed Tanaga, who was looking for a quiet place to make a call.

In a while, the butler came carrying Ashley's bag. "Ma'am, Sir! Here are the things that you need," while pa.s.sing the bag of Ashley to Tanaga instead of giving it to Ashley.

What they didn't know was Arman clearly saw everything because he also followed them. He also heard the person who came call Ashley as Ma'am. 'Hmmm? I wonder what that means?" Arman asked himself while waiting for the two who were oblivious to Arman.

Tanaga received the handbag that was pa.s.sed by the butler, and he opened it and got the ID of Ashley before he closed it and handed it back to the butler. Arman's eyes grew big with what he saw, but he couldn't speak up and ask questions.

Arman decided to go back to the entrance, where the two left him so that they will not know that he saw everything that happened. He made up his mind that he will ask his sister if he had the chance. But for now, he will let it go.

Meanwhile, Ashley just stood there as if everything that happened was normal. She didn't even ask for her ID from Tanaga. She just followed him back to the entrance of the casino.

When they were near the casino entrance, Tanaga gave the ID to Ashley. "You go ahead with your brother. I just forgot something. Meet me at the bar, ok!"

Ashley just nodded and went to her brother, who was waiting for her...

The whole Gusman family was delighted roaming around the casino. It was Fely and Jessie's first time to enter a casino. While Arman, Arthur, and Ariel have been inside a casino before so they served as tour guides to their parents.

Ashley suddenly remembered that Tanaga asked her to meet him at the bar, so she looked like a lost sheep asking where the bar is? Good thing, a c.o.c.ktail waitress pa.s.sed by.

"Miss, can I ask a question? Where is the bar here?" Ashley asked.

After the c.o.c.ktail waitress pointed the direction to the bar, Ashley thanked her and invited her family to the bar in case Tanaga was already waiting for them.

Mang Jessie and Aling Fely were busily enjoying watching the people playing the slot machine, so they asked to be left behind.

"Are you sure, dad, mom?" Alright, just ask the waitress where is the bar and we will only be staying there, ok?" She hurriedly asked her brothers. "Let's go. My boss might get bored and fire me!" Ashley joked his brothers.

Ashley's older brothers quickly followed her looking very worried that their youngest sister might get into trouble. Arnold was not able to control himself, so he asked while they were walking to the bar.

"Sis, why do you look so afraid of your boss? He looks nice and kind?"

"He IS nice! That is why I don't want him to make him wait because I will not abuse his kindness, especially that he treats me so good. Do you understand what I mean?"

"Well, you are right about that! It's been less than a month, and yet, you were able to go home, and you were able to treat us out! Hahaha?" Arnold said, obviously favoring Tanaga.

When Ashley reached the bar, her eyes grew big like saucers when she saw that there was a band singing. Only when they were near she realize that it was a famous brand in the Philippines that was playing. "Wow! Cool!" Ashley absent-mindedly said.

"Ashley! Close your mouth or else a fly could get in it. Hahaha!" Arnel teased her.

"Hmph! You know that I love to sing. If I did not get hired in my job, I would have applied as a singer in j.a.pan. Hahaha!" Ashley said while laughing but looking very serious.

"Oh, good thing you were accepted in your job, or else you'll just get hungry," Arnel said. He draped his arms on Ashley's shoulder as they approached the bar.

As they got near, they noticed that the line outside the bar was so long. Ashley felt defeated and didn't know what to do. "What can we do? It looks like we cannot go in because there is a special occasion inside." Ashley said with noticeable sad eyes.

Ashey was thinking about how she could look for Tanaga when someone suddenly tapped her back.

"Did you wait for a long time? Apologies. I just needed to do something important." Tanaga said with a charming smile.

"Oh! It's a good thing you saw us. We were thinking about how we would find you," Ashley answered with palpable sadness in her voice.

"What are you waiting for? Come on, let's go inside and I have a surprise for you." Tanaga eagerly invited them.

"Sir! I don't think we can go inside. Look, the line is so long, and it seems like they are not letting anyone in." Arman interjected while pointing to the people who were lined up outside the bar.

Tanaga smile before saying, "That's not a problem! Leave it to me…."
