If you were Charles what will you do after knowing where Kelvin ran away to with the money you both won. Will you just let go,or you will go after him to get justice ? or how will you treat this issue.
I'll confront, but I'll never ask for the winnings because for sure, it's gone already.
This is the problem when you trust a friend. In real life, you might have many friends around, but not all of them are the ones you need to trust especially when it comes to money. If I'm in that situation, I'll just pretend that it never happened since it will be useless and the money for sure is gone and I believe in karma so... I'll let it go but will never forgive him.
If this is a true story, I hope that Charles learned from this one and will not do the same thing again.
