Chapter 72: Playing Cards 

With Michael back, Victoria got straight to the point. 

“Michael, we’re here about Cathy’s job. She keeps asking when she can start working. As her cousin, you should care about this.” 

“Michael, you’re the best. I don’t ask for much. Just give me the Creative Director position!” 

This is a pretty tough requirement. 

Cathy doesn’t have much skill; she might not even be able to render a model room. Yet, she insists on applying to big design. firms. Her chances are practically zero. 

But Michael stayed silent. 

The chef was busy cooking lunch. Jennifer and her friends had no plans to leave, so they were staying for the meal. 

Chloe ignored them and headed upstairs. 

Suddenly, Cathy suggested, “Let’s play cards.” 

“Mom, since we’re just sitting here bored, how about we play some cards to pass the time?” 

Chloe doesn’t like playing cards and isn’t good at it either. 

2/4 

She played cards with the women of the Shawn family, but she lost and had to endure their mocking and scolding. 

If it wasn’t for Michael, Chloe would have left ages ago. 

But today they were short on people. The three women had no choice but to call Chloe to join them. 

“Chloe, come on! We’re all waiting for you. You can’t say no, right?” 

“We’re family, so the stakes are low.” 

It looked like they were trying to force Chloe to agree. 

In the end, Cathy yanked Chloe into her seat. 

Chloe kept losing round after round. 

Ever since the Nelson family fell from grace, Chloe’s been hustling nonstop. No time for learning to play cards. 

After marrying Michael, Chloe only picked up card games because she had to play with the Shawn family. 

Chloe sucked at playing cards because she couldn’t count them. 

Cathy hit the jackpot, and she couldn’t stop grinning.

“Chloe, don’t stress. Michael’s loaded, so losing a few times is no big deal. Just think of it as paying for lessons!” 

Jennifer and Victoria snickered mockingly. 

“Chloe, you’ve played cards with the Shawn family members so many times, but why can’t you ever win?” 

“Playing cards is just like doing business. You need to watch your opponents closely, not just stare at your own hand.” 

Jennifer pretended to teach Chloe how to play cards, but her hands moved so fast that Chloe couldn’t keep up.
