Marry into Money by Accident novel Chapter 52

Chapter 52

Lianne knew this card game was different from the last time she played. As she did not know how to play, she did not dare to take Zane’s place.

Just when she opened her mouth to refuse, Zane said, “Just play as you wish. It doesn’t matter whether you win or lose.”

Lianne had to go to the table. Even though Zane said she could play casually, she felt pressured for fear that she might accidentally lose enough money to buy a house.

Eugene held Rosa’s hand and put down a card. “Zane, life is short. Treat yourself better while you’re young. You should date when you can. Don’t live like an ascetic.”

Zane ignored him. Lianne whispered for help on the side, “Mr. Atlas, which card should I play?” Zane stretched out his hand and took out a card from her hand with his slender fingertips. “Don’t panic. Just do whatever you want.”

Since he was so close to her, Lianne could smell the faint woody fragrance from him. It was very faint but pleasant. Thus, she was a little distracted.

Seeing the small interaction between the two, Eugene laughed and joked. “Zane, is it because you fancy someone else now that you’re in a rough patch with your wife?”

Eugene purposely glanced at Lianne. What he implied was obvious.

Zane glanced at him with a cold gaze. “You can tease me, but don’t damage the girl’s reputation.” Eugene shrugged. “If you have someone you like, go after her boldly. As the saying goes, you might just miss out on this opportunity if you wait too long.”

Zane said, “Just focus on the game.”

Eugene replied, “Okay, okay…”

The whole afternoon was spent at the poker table. While everyone had a great time playing, every

minute was torture to Lianne.

At the end of the game, Lianne lost all of Zane’s chips.

Eugene was delighted. “Zane, you finally lost this time! We have to think about how much we can get from you.”

Zane gently pushed up his silver glasses frame on the bridge of his nose. “Go ahead.”
