At the end of the conversation, she simply brought Otis out.
She just came over to say hello, not to keep these old men company with their bullshit.
"You!" Senator Hughes looked very embarrassed by her unmerciful disrespect.
Otis laughed brightly, "Ms. Knowles is always so straightforward. Please don't mind."
Joyce picked up her diamond handbag from the table, "Mr. Robertson, if there's nothing else, I'll go first."
With that said, she was ready to get up.
Otis suddenly reached out and put a hand on her arm.
"What's the hurry? We can play a few rounds together before you leave."
He pointed to the cards tossed all over the coffee table.
Joyce scanned across the table. Otis had the most chips in front of him, so they must have been playing for a while before she arrived.
She sure knew Texas Holdem, which was very simple, and all gamblers liked it.
She had been at Mufron long enough and she sure knew it.
"Mr. Robertson, you've got a great hand today. We've lost a lot to you. Mr. Robertson, aren’t you afraid that this lady might lose all her money? Everyone here is quite good at the game." Mr. Clark teased.
It seemed like he was looking down upon Joyce.
"Oh, Mr. Robertson is just trying to win Ms. Knowles, right?" Senator Hughes gestured to the chips and waved his hand, "The stakes are a little high today. Can Ms. Knowles afford to play?"
Joyce frowned gently when she saw Senator Hughes wave his hand. Five fingers. Was a chip worth fifty thousand?
It was a table full of chips so that could be a multi-million dollar bet.
What a crowd of gamblers!.
"I won’t join you then."
Otis pushed all the chips in front of him to Joyce, "You play a hand. It's okay. It's on me if you lose."
"Oh." Mr. Clark thought of something, "So."

The readers' comments on the novel: Wrong marriage and sweet love (Joyce and Luther)
If this is the ending of this story the story then I wish I hadn’t started reading it doesn’t even end right has not closure. To bad these writers don’t put much into their endings....
When will the new chapters come I can't wait any longer...
Very strange ending, is Joyce pregnant again or does she still have remnants of the devil with her. Christian should have apologized and made up with Luther and Felix. Too much violence and twists and turns, once settled, everyone should be happy and healthy....
Omg… can’t you just let Luther and Joyce live in peace with their children….another controversy doesn’t add to the story....
Not again, ugh … just get rid of this disgusting despicable woman...
Hopefully the underground bio lab East523will be found soon and Luther will make a full recovery, Lily will be reunited with the family and all will be good. Otherwise this will be a very disappointing story....
Please don’t make more trouble for Joyce and Luther, they need to have their children and be happy...
Looking forward to Joyce shooting Otis where it will hurt him the most and end his disgusting ways with women. He’s a pig, deserves to lose his “unit”....
Just tell him you’re the one that saved him , not the evil woman and find your beautiful love story together. Quit being a wet blanket, too smart for that....
I hate it when the hero and heroine are made out to be fools for the evil people that wish to steal their lives and live. Hopefully Charlotte is found out quickly and removed. Why should a villain with an illegitimate child reap all the rewards. Terrible....
