The Deserted Rich Beauty (Nicole and eric) novel Chapter 2412

None of them answered Cindy’s question, which made the situation turn awkward in an instant.

Cindy pursed her lips in embarrassment.

Nicole had the highest status among the people in the room. Thus, even if Nicole said something harsh, Cindy would not dare to retort Nicole.

Julie kept an indifferent attitude. She did not talk, nod, or answer anything.

She was just wary of Cindy.

Cindy had bad luck ever since she joined their game. She used to be quite successful at the poker table, but she did not win a single round this time.

Selena, on the other hand, kept a huge smile.

Nicole and Julie won some and lost some.

After a few rounds, Chatty ran over from the opposite side of the room. She was sweating profusely as she held her small arm out to Nicole.

“Mommy! Daddy wants to talk to you!”

Nicole paused and looked at Chatty’s smartwatch which doubled as a phone.

She was stunned and thought, ‘Where’s my phone?’

Nicole muted her phone and forgot about it.

She quickly held Chatty’s little arm closer to her lips.

“Hello?”

“Have you had enough fun? It’s time to come back home, don’t you think?”

Clayton’s voice was deep and hoarse. He sounded tired, but he was still gentle as he teased her.

Nicole could not discern what he was feeling as if he was trapped in a thick fog in the night.

However, it was clear that he was very patient and doting toward Nicole.

Nicole glanced at the cards in her hand in disappointment. Although she did not want to leave yet, it was indeed quite late.

“Okay. I’ll go back right away. Are you done with your social engagement? Should I pick you up?”

“You didn’t drink?”

Clayton paused. He knew where she was.

Nicole laughed. “I brought two children with me, so of course I can’t drink!”

“Good job! I’ll reward you when we’re at home. I’ll wait for you at the entrance then.”

Clayton hinted at something, and Nicole was immersed in that tender feeling.

Nicole smiled and put Chatty down.

Chatty could not wait to share the new world she discovered with Clayton.

Nicole laughed and looked at the three people opposite her.

“I’m going home. Let’s play again next time?”

Cindy finally breathed a sigh of relief and stood up.

“Sure, let’s meet again next time.”

Cindy had already lost hundreds of thousands of dollars in one night.

Even though this was not a huge amount of money for her, she was still not in a good mood because she lost.

Thus, Cindy wanted to end the game a long time ago.

However, Cindy did not want to bring it up first. Otherwise, Selena would think that Cindy could not afford to lose.

Selena glanced at Cindy with a sly smile as if she was mocking Cindy’s stubbornness.

However, Selena did not expose Cindy.

Selena looked at Nicole and Julie. “Come over and play again next time!”

The two ladies nodded with a smile. Each of them took a child and left.

Selena did not send them off and only waved at them casually.

Cindy glanced at Selena probingly with a complicated gaze.

“Are you that close with Nicole?”

Selena sneered.
