Chapter 364 Watch Where You Look

She sat next to Yves directly and put her arm around his shoulder. Then, she leaned in close and called him affectionately while complaining.
“You haven’t called me in ages. Have you forgotten about me?”
She was the most beautiful woman at the banquet clinging to the young man just now.
Yves smiled at her. “Be good, go have fun somewhere else.”
Then he turned his back to Isabelle.
The woman pouted, “You are cold–hearted.”
She glanced at Isabelle and added, “You dumped me because you found a new companion? Does she please you as much as I do?”
Yves’s smile vanished immediately. He looked at the woman and smirked.
“If you don’t leave now, I’ll strip you naked and let everyone enjoy the view.”
The woman fled in embarrassment after noticing the coldness in his eyes.
She went back to the young man just now.
Neither Isabelle nor Jim paid much attention to the scene, as it was nothing new to them.
Jim even asked the waiter to bring a deck of cards and started playing with Isabelle.
He joined the card game after the woman left.
Jim asked with the cards in his hand, “What’s the bet?”
“Whoever loses will get whipped!” Yves suggested.
Jim was at a loss for words. “Enough of that.”
Glancing at the champagne tower nearby, Jim proposed, “How about a drink for each loss?”
Yves, who was sipping his drink, said, “That’s boring.”
Jim suddenly thought of something. “How about eating chilis?”
Among the three of them, Yves couldn’t handle spicy food the most, and he was even a bit allergic to chili. Jim was definitely seeking revenge!
Before Yves could refuse, Jim challenged, “Come on, man up!”
Yves retorted, “Sure! Bring it on. You have the worst luck! I’ll make sure that your wounds will inflame after eating the chilis!”

As Jim was about to deal the cards, Yves took them and handed them to Isabelle, “You do it, sweetheart. I don’t trust this guy.”
Jim protested, “You’re insulting my profession.”
Yves scoffed. “You’re not exactly a judge.”
Isabelle shuffled the cards, “The lowest number loses?”
Both agreed.
It was the simplest game, each person was dealt a card, and the one with the lowest point lost.
Isabelle revealed her card. “Ten points.”
She was lucky at the table.
Yves had a seven.
Jim placed his card it in front of Yves arrogantly, “Eight points. One chili for you!”
Yves was shocked. “A whole chili?”
He thought they would be eating chili sauce or mustard.
“Yes,” Jim replied.
Yves threatened, “Alright, this is a trap you’re setting for yourself.”
Isabelle shuffled and dealt the cards again.
In less than five minutes, they played over twenty rounds. Yves‘ luck had run out, and he had to eat thirteen chilies!
Jim had to eat eight, while Isabelle had to eat two.
Jim threw his cards on the table and won again.
“Should we go now? I want to see him eat those chilies, Jim said eagerly.
“D’mn it!” Yves was annoyed.
As the three of them were still having fun, the beautiful woman just now returned with the young man who had everyone’s attention at the start of the party.
Ever since Yves and the others were here, the people had ignored him and he couldn’t help but compare.
himself to Yves.
