Obsession With Mr. Right novel Chapter 168

Paisley could not fathom William, but her heartbeat erratically when she looked at his gentle smile.William's smile was really too charming.

Indeed, what Hardy said that she was only attracted to his appearance was actually true.He was just so handsome that she didn't mind if he didn't have any talents.

Paisley felt much happier as she looked at his appearance .

So she held up her glass to bring a toast to William, "Here 's to you, Mr.Howard.Congratulations for your collaboration with Acma Corporation today!"

He had embarrassed Hardy that day, but here Paisley was congratulating him.

William was slightly surprised by her attitude.So he smiled and clinked his glass with hers.

"Thank you, Miss Anthony."

Richard and Michael locked eyes as they saw how Paisley took the initiative to speak to William.

Richard then said, "I heard that Mr.Anthony was embarrassed deeply by him.Aren't you angry with him?"

"My brother's business has nothing to do with me" Paisley replied.

"Besides, business is like a battlefield.You should know that whatever you do to others might come back to you someday."

"That's right! Miss Anthony, you are right.I have decided to have you as my friend.Let's toast to you" Richard said and raised his glass.

Paisley clinked her glass with Richard's.

Paisley was open - minded and elegant.

Richard and Michael were greatly impressed by her.

They kept toasting her and Paisley did not seem to reject them.

Seeing this, William scrunched his brows.

"That's enough.Why are you bullying a lady? How shameless"

"Do you feel sorry for her?"

Richard looked with his eyes scrunched together.

"If you feel sorry, you should drink for her'’ William looked at Richard speechlessly.

Paisley then smiled and said, "Don't worry.I can hold my liquor.Even my brother can't beat me in this”

"Really?"

Richard couldn't quite believe him.Richard had seen how well Hardy drinks as well.

"It's true." Paisley answered very seriously.

"William can drink well too.Why don't both of you drink and compete who's better?" Michael was eager to watch them.

"Why should I accept your suggestion?" William retorted.

"Well, we can play some games and the loser shall drink."

"I'm not interested' William refused.

"Are you afraid of losing?" Richard provoked him.

"Who said I'd lose?"

"People say that those who succeed in love always fail in gambles.Why don't we see if it's true."

Richard took the dice and said, "Let's play by the old rules, the smaller count will have to drink"

They started throwing dice.

William was on a winning streak.

Richard, Michael, and Paisley were losing behind.

Richard and Michael were agitated.

"What is happening? Didn't it say that those who succeed in love fail in gambling? Why do you keep winning?"

"Exactly, what is happening? It must be we are sitting in an unlucky position” Michael asked to change seats with William, but then he still lost.

He and Richard downed two bottles of beers respectively while Paisley drank two bottles of XO.

William did not even touch his glass once.

Richard was already a little tipsy, but he still wanted to continue.

William put the dice down and said, "It's no fun to keep winning.Enough of this game."
