The Enticing CEO’s Chosen Bride novel Chapter 1459

Suddenly, Chloe became the center of attention in the whole gaming hall.
Nathan carefully wiped the sweat from his forehead and said to Damon, "We may be loaded, but we can't afford Chloe's extravagant spending. If this keeps up, we're going to need millions to handle tonight!"
"As long as she's happy." Damon responded with a poker face.
Nathan chuckled a bit and gave Damon a thumbs up. "You're really something!"
Indeed, Damon was ready to give up even the Harper family's empire, let alone a few million.
"But your situation is different now. Without the support of the Harper family, your money will only decrease, not increase...careful you don't squander everything and can't afford to keep the family..."
Damon frowned. He didn't want to argue with Nathan, who was always talking nonsense, but the phrase "can't afford to keep the family" got to him. He gave Nathan a warning glance. "If I can't afford to keep the family, I'll sell you."
Nathan immediately crossed his arms, looking like he'd fight to the death to protect himself.
"What are you talking about? I won't agree to that! No one can get their hands on my body."
Chloe frowned helplessly. When would Nathan ever be serious?
Kane, on the other hand, was laughing so hard he couldn't stand straight. "Nathan, are you trying to kill me with laughter?!"
Nathan glared at him. "Or should I sell you?"
Kane instantly lost his smile. He huffed arrogantly, "My body belongs only to the woman I love."
With Nathan and Kane around, the journey would never be boring.
Chloe shook her head, looking somewhat bored, and took a seat on a high stool. Seeing her lack of enthusiasm, everyone crowded around her.
Nathan quickly walked over and sat down next to her. "Chloe, what's the matter, don't you want to play anymore?"
Kane chimed in, "There's still a lot we haven't tried. Maybe check out something else? We're here to have fun, so don't just go home like this."
Damon stood silently next to Nathan, not saying a word, his gaze fixed on Nathan.
Nathan felt a chill down his spine. He plucked up the courage to meet Damon's gaze, then looked down at Chloe next to him. Realizing something, he quickly stood up and offered his seat to Damon.
Damon sat down in Nathan's place without hesitation. Nathan rolled his eyes and thought to himself that Damon was really childish.
Chloe seemed oblivious to the little exchange between Nathan and Damon. She propped her chin on her hand and tapped the table with her other hand out of boredom.
Being the target in the casino, Chloe naturally attracted attention. Seeing their target lose interest, others started to get anxious. They couldn't just let a newbie who knew nothing about casinos just walk away.
A few people slowly approached Chloe. "Hello, would you like to join us for a few games?"
Chloe looked up, her gaze sweeping over the few people in front of her. Their faces were relaxed, and their eyes were filled with obvious greed.
She paused her table tapping. She looked at them, sat up straight, leaned to one side, and smiled at them. "Do you guys have money?"
The group laughed. "Of course, the casino has rules. You can't gain without investment."
Chloe leaned on her hand and asked, "How much do you have?"
"Don't worry, we just lost some, but we still have tens of thousands..."
To them, Chloe was just a newbie who came to donate money. She didn't know anything about the casino. Although she had money, wasn't gambling here the same as gaining without investment?
However, as soon as they finished speaking, Chloe shook her head and said, "Not interested. You don't have enough money."
Did they just get rejected by a newbie? Their faces turned awkward, but in order not to upset Chloe, they swallowed their displeasure. "How much do you want to play?"
"I'm not sure. I just lost about six hundred thousand, and I want to win back my money as soon as possible."
They couldn't help but laugh. "Winning back six hundred thousand in the shortest time, are you serious?"
Chloe glanced at them and frowned. "Of course I'm serious. I can lose, but can't I win?"
"No, that's not what we mean. It's just that your luck is bad. Losing is normal but winning that back would be really abnormal."
"Why can't I win? Who says I can't win after I've lost?" Chloe raised her eyebrows, her voice a bit cold. With that, she sounded more like a newbie than ever.
Nathan, listening to this, felt something was off. He leaned towards Damon and whispered, "Why does Chloe sound weird today? Such newbie talk coming from her, doesn't it seem a bit off?"
Damon also thought Chloe was overdoing the newbie act. Anyone who knew her even a little would notice that her way of speaking and acting was completely different from before.
Nathan looked at Chloe, shaking his head and full of disbelief. Even if she didn't understand casinos, she should have known some basic common sense. This kind of game was fun in small doses, but it could distress and drain you if played too much. You'd only lose more and get deeply stuck.
Nathan didn't believe that Chloe, who was so smart, wouldn't know this. Why did Chloe today seem like a moron who could be swindled at any time?
"Ha, you better be careful. If you still want to win back your lost money now, I advise you to leave here as soon as possible. Consider it as paying a few hundred thousand for the experience."
"If you continue like this, no matter how much money you gain, it won't be enough to compensate for what you’ve lost."
A man nearby couldn't stand Chloe's words any longer and stood up to kindly warn her.
Chloe's face slowly frowned, looking extremely serious. "But I want to win," She said.
Everyone around heard this and laughed a little after a pause.
"Gambling is not something you can win just because you want to. If it were, no one would lose all their property from gambling."
"Do you think you're Randall? Can you win just because you say so?"
Chloe raised her eyebrows but didn't answer. Suddenly, Nathan's eyes lit up from the next seat. "Randall, has this guy shown up before? Do you guys know this dude?"
