Davian was on driving on the road when the phone beside him suddenly rang. He quickly glanced at his phone, realizing that Felicity had sent him messages.He could not help but say to Gilbert, "Mr. Kooper, can you help me to check my phone and see if Felicity has sent me the location."Gilbert was leaning back in the chair, slumbering, and reluctantly opened his eyes as he heard Davian's voice. After a moment, he grabbed Davian's phone and said in a muffled voice, "Password."'Seriously. He's a grown man. What kind of secrets can he have? He even has a lock screen password!'"Okay. Eight eight eight eight eight eight!""Ha-ha!" Gilbert suddenly laughed. "Davian, are you not satisfied with your current salary? Your avaricious motive makes it look like you're constantly blaming me for preventing you from becoming wealthy."Davian was speechless.'He's very imaginative. Why isn't he working as a screenwriter?!'"It's not that, Mr. Kooper. I just feel that the number eight is auspi
The man was tall and handsome, and his manner was gentle and elegant."Peter, she's my friend. She craved alcohol for a moment and drank yours. I hope you don't mind. ""Ha-ha..." Peter glanced at the man. He gave a faint smile as he said, "Ronald, she's your friend, I see. It's all right then. I was wondering where this crazy woman came from.""Ha-ha. You're funny, Peter. It'll be very difficult for you to find a girlfriend if you talk like this." Felicity gazed at Jolina as she daringly said, "Look, you're so bad at socializing. No wonder the woman beside you doesn't like you.""Bam!"Peter hit the table hard. He angrily stood up and was about to smack Felicity when Kisa hurriedly grabbed his hand across the table. "Don't be mad, Peter. She loves to joke. She's Gilbert and my friend. Do us a favor. Don't mind what she said."Peter frowned as he glared at Kisa and said coldly, "Since when was she your friend?"Kisa smiled as she said, "It's true. She's really our friend. Gilber
As the voice stopped, Peter could be seen next to Jolina. He peremptorily hugged her in his arms, but she frowned, trying to free herself.Peter suddenly said to her ear coldly, "What's wrong? Do you want to be toyed by those dandies?""You!"Jolina furiously glared at him. The disgust on her face could not be concealed. Peter was unhappy but quickly looked away, afraid he would be so angry that he would lose his mind and hit her."I see. She's your woman, Peter."A dandy smiled as he eased the tension around the table, "You should've told us. Since she's your woman, we won't dare to lay our hands on her."Peter grunted coldly as he immediately sat down beside Jolina. Felicity rolled her eyes and said with a smile, "Guys, let's play cards. There are so many people now, so it must be fun.""How do we play? Felicity, do you have a better way to play?" Ronald tenderly stared at Felicity as he asked. She then touched her chin with her index finger as she thought seriously.Kisa gaz
'Your husband?'Kisa winced when she heard the word 'husband', only to realize they meant Gilbert a few seconds later."All right. Stop being dramatic. It's just a game. Why? Are you afraid that everybody will eat you up?" Peter suddenly scornfully laughed at her, looking very impatient.Kisa glanced at him. 'Indeed, Jolina didn't hate Peter for no reason. He is bad-tempered, impatient, and even likes to hit women. Who would like him?!' As Kisa was angrily thinking about that, Felicity had already pushed her next to Marshall. Marshall looked like he was around Jolina's age, tall, slim, and white, a sunshine boy. He shyly said to Kisa, "Don't worry. I won't lose. I won't let you get punished."Having heard that, Kisa was even more embarrassed to reject playing the game. She smiled as she said to Marshall, "It's all right. Just do your best."Soon, a waiter gave them two decks of poker cards. While the waiter was shuffling the cards, Felicity said to everyone, "Here's the deal, we'l
The attendant quickly finished shuffling the cards and distributed them.Peter gazed icily at Kenneth as if he had locked him as his opponent.In an instant, the attendant had dealt out the cards.All six men picked up their cards.Meanwhile, the women sitting beside them leaned closer to look at the cardsKisa glanced at the cards in Marshall's hands and immediately felt her heart sink.'His highest card is only an Ace! There are two decks of cards, so where did the four Kings and eight 2's go? Marshall's cards look like a phone number; looking at them gives me a headache,' thought Kisa.Meanwhile, Jolina stared at Peter's card, unblinking.'Jolina's face is all scrunched up; Peter must not have good cards either,' thought Kisa.Kisa turned to look at Kenneth. He and the woman next to him both had smug expressions.'Looks like they have good cards,' she thought.Then, she glanced at Ronald.Ronald was staring coolly at the cards in his hands. He looked as still as a statue
The alcohol Felicity handed Jolina was different from Kisa's; it was a cider with relatively low alcohol content.Seeing how it was a cider, Peter did not say anything.Even though Jolina did not drink, she had participated in the game and understood that the losers needed to receive punishment.And so, she grabbed the cider and downed it. However, she could not help but feel a little resentment toward the man beside her.'If he hadn't dragged me in here, I wouldn't have gotten involved in this game,' thought Jolina.Compared to Jolina, Kisa's situation was miserable.In the second round, Marshall had six cards left, so Kisa had no choice but to quietly down another six glasses of alcohol.Kenneth watched as Kisa downed the alcohol. Suddenly, he turned to Felicity and sighed, "Earlier on, you should've set the rules to five cards. If the person who comes last has five cards left, the lady in their group will have to strip!"Felicity busted out a laugh, "Do you want to see Ms. B
"Alright, stop it. You're scaring them."Gilbert snorted, "Your eyesight is questionable, Kisa. You paired up with a rookie!"Hearing Gilbert's words, Marshall lowered his head further. He was too embarrassed to make a retort.Suddenly, Kenneth laughed sardonically, "It seems like Mr. Kooper is good at card games. Are you interested in a friendly match? We'll play the same game and see if you can even the score for Kisa this round!"Gilbert gazed at him icily and snorted, "Do you actually want to have a match with me?"Kenneth took a puff of his cigarette. Then, he laughed arrogantly, "Sigh! We played two rounds, and I was the first to finish my cards in both rounds. They're all noobs, so the game isn't challenging at all. So Mr. Kooper, do give me the honor of playing a few rounds with you.""Tsk!"Peter snorted in disdain right after Kenneth spoke."You speak as if you're really skilled. You just got good cards. With those cards of yours, even an idiot would win if they playe
Davian was so frustrated he simply lowered his head and kept quiet.Seeing his crestfallen and wronged expression, Kisa laughed in amusement.A moment later, she looked at Gilbert's cards.'It seems like Gilbert doesn't have good luck either. The cards he got aren't much better compared to Marshall's cards earlier on. His highest card is a King,' she thought.Then, she glanced at Kenneth.Kenneth was looking at his own cards with a smug, icy smile.Kisa was speechless.'Why's luck still on his side when we've already changed to another attendant? With that luck of his, he should buy some lottery tickets. Peter has a deep frown, and Jolina's little face is still scrunched up. I'm guessing they also didn't get good cards. Even though we got another attendant to shuffle the cards, it seems like the situation isn't that different from just now,' she thought.Kisa glanced at the alcohol beside them.'While the alcohol content of these drinks isn't that high, one will still get drun
