double-cross 欺騙(幫兇),矇騙(同夥)
The diamond thief double-crossed his partners and gave them only worthless fake jewels.
鑽石大盜欺騙了同夥,給了他們一錢不值的假珠寶。

他承諾不告訴你,但是他卻告訴你了。他矇騙了我。
Don't try and double-cross me, Taylor, because I'll kill you.
泰勒,別試圖矇騙我,因為我會滅了你。
They were frightened of being double-crossed.
他們害怕被矇騙。
double-crosser 騙子,背信棄義的人
I'll make sure that dirty double crosser never works in this town again, if it's the last thing I do.
如果我只能做一件事,我會確保那個骯髒的背信棄義的人永遠不在這個城鎮工作。
