Chapter 86 Marriages Can Sour Quickly
On the other hand, Norman’s complaint about his back pad was just an excuse,
He had heard some news and immediately returned to his room, asking his secretary, “Has Wesley really boarded the ship?”
“Vincent saw a figure that looked very much like him, but he wasn’t entirely sure.
Nonnan laughed bitterly.
“He’s even keeping a secret while attending our own family’s banquets. What’s making him so afraid to show his face? Truly, he’s been spoiled by his mother!”
He andered, “Send someone to find him!”
The secretary nodded. “Yes,”
Nonman paused for a moment. “Wait, do it discreetly, don’t alert anyone.”
Just in case Wesley had his plans, Norman didn’t want to hold him back.
The secretary replied, “Understood.”
Still feeling uneasy, Norman walked toward the room where the poker game was happening.
That room was now in a brief silence
Charles claimed Emelie
William’s gaze shifted to Emelie
Behind him was a floor lamp, casting shadows that obscured his expression
No one could tell what he was thinking at that moment.
Emelie’s breath caught for a moment.
Everything hung on his decision. If he nodded, she would be at his mercy tonight.
No, she couldn’t rely on this man. Relying on him meant having no hope
Suddenly, Emelie smiled and took a hesitant step forward.
“Hmm? I wonder what the bosses are talking about. I can also play poker. Why don’t you add
Charles looked at her with a sarcastic smile. “You want to join the table, too?”
His remark was clearly mocking her inability to understand her status.
Emelie pretended not to understand and casually said, “My poker skills are not bad. I should be qualified to be a playing partner for the bosses.
Charles leaned back in his chair with a relaxed demeanor and said, “Well then, tell us, who do you think should give up their seat for you here?”
Seated at the table were the capital tycoon from the Middleton family in Capebatt City, the venture capitalist from the Swanson family in Weston, the real estate tycoon from the Davis family in Calmcrest, and the technology giant from the Collins family in Placidville.
As a woman who was brought here, who did she think should step down for her?
William’s seat directly faced the door, and Emelie couldn’t help but look at him
She actually wanted him to step down, preferably straight off the ship and into oblivion.
Before today, she didn’t think William would stoop to this level.
“I’m a bit tired of playing. Patricia, accompany me for a drink.”
The game quickly started, and Willam was the first in tum, «
As they kept playing, everyone started to get serious. The poker table fell silent, with only the sound of chips clinking.
