Chapter 87 Threatening His Throne
“Mr. Davis is too kind. Perhaps it’s just practice that makes perfect.
“I wasn’t very good before, but as the head secretary of Cloudex Corporation, I often have to represent Cloudex Corporation and connect with various CFOs and their wives.
“The more I play, the more skilled | become.”
Charles paused for a moment.
Head secretary. Connecting with various CEOs and their wives.
He pondered for a moment. “I see,”
After hearing Emelie’s insightful words, William glanced at her and raised his bet.
Emelie immediately called, returning his gaze. Her words were directed at Charles but were meant for him.
Was he really going to give her away? Had he thought it through?
She was the head secretary, controlling Cloudex Corporation’s numerous client resources. She might not be able to hold her tongue if he dared to sell her out.
She could casually mention some major clients‘ preferences, habits, and limits to Charles. If Charles then took those clients, she wouldn’t be
at fault.
This wouldn’t count as betraying Cloudex Corporation’s secrets; she was just chatting about some gossip about clients while playing poker.
Emelie smiled. “The one who has guided me the most is Mrs. Parker, but the most interesting player is Mrs. Adams.
“She’s from Elmridge, and they have a type of poker called “Fists and Kicks,” which is quite amusing. Does Mr. Davis play Elmridge poker?”
Charles pondered. “I’ve seen it but never played it. But I’m interested after hearing Ms. Hoven say that. Can you teach me tonight?”
Emelie was disgusted by his words but maintained her smile. “Sure, I’ll let you know later what games Mr. Jenkins and Mr. Bennett enjoy playing.”
Her hand won again. “Full House. I’ve won, again. Looks like Charles is also favoring me.”
William sneered. He had underestimated this woman. She dared to threaten him directly,
Emelle pursed her lips. “Shall we continue?”
William folded his hand. “Do you think we’re here to play poker with you? Who do you think you are?
He ushered her away from the table. “The drinks are finished; po get more.”
Emelie lowered her gaze and stood up, “Certainly, Mr. Middleton.”
She hoped Willian would lose his strength and confidence one day and have nothing.
Then, she would make him feel like he was walking on a tightrope at the edge of a cliff, desperately trying to save himself.
