Singed Once Always Wary

nking of this, Joseph became even more pleased and reached out to pinch Alice’s chin.

Alice closed her eyes in fear, and her eyelashes began to tremble.

“Take the little beauty away. As for you, come upstairs with me. I’ll show you something exciting.”

Selena guessed that Joseph wouldn’t actually hurt her. In Sky Corridor, as long as she called out, professional bodyguards would come immediately. However, this was still the favorite place of the rich second generation in the circle. If she was really surrounded by people, she would be the one losing face. She still had to do business in the future. If she was blacklisted, it would be difficult for her to move at all in this circle from then on.

“By ‘exciting, does Mr. Anderson mean the casino upstairs?”

Joseph raised an eyebrow and walked upstairs. “Yes, it looks like you’ve played before.”

Selena did not speak and saw tears falling from Alice’s eyes. “Let her go first. ll accompany Mr. Anderson to play.”

Compared to Alice, Joseph was more interested in her, and he wasn’t indecisive now. “I’ll give you face, but tonight you have to play with me happily.”

Selena looked at Alice and still didn’t understand why she appeared in the har.

“Alice, you go back first.”

Alice was released by the bodyguard, and her face turned paler. “But sister, you…”

Im Eine.”

Selena said lightly, “You better explain why you came to this kind of place alone when you have the chance.”

Alice hung her head in panic, biting her lips tightly. It was naturally because someone was here tonight, and she just wanted to take a good look at him up close, so she couldn’t hold back.

She didn’t expect to run into Selena. Although Selena’s daily life was frugal, how could she afford a two million dollar membership card?

Selena followed behind Joseph, and he raised his hand to want to hold her waist, but heard her say, “Mr. Montague has a strong sense of territory. Before losing interest in something, he probably wouldn’t want others to touch it.”

Joseph’s face didn’t look good. She had already seen through his intentions.

Suddenly, he became angry and embarrassed. “Do you think that climbing into Raymond’s bed will make him care about you? Let’s wait and see.”

As they spoke, the two had already arrived on the third floor.

Waiters in black and white uniforms and bunny girls carrying drinks shuttled back and forth between the luxurious tables, which were full of people participating in the gambling.

Selena spotted Raymond sitting in the middle, seemingly uninterested in the gambling. He held a glass of wine and glanced at his cards before pushing. his chips out in front of him

Alex sat next to him and chuckled, seeing his distracted look. “No wonder you’re Hermes.”

Raymond had already lost half of his chips, while everyone else at the table was winning big. They looked at him as if he were a god of wealth.

He sat calmly there, even his gaze of the cards was indifferent. He exuded an apathy that showed he didn’t care about that money.

Selena didn’t look much longer and turned her attention back, only to find Joseph had walked over.

very polite. “Is this table still short two people? Selena and I happen to have some free time. Would you mind,

Mr. Montague?”

Upon hearing his voice, Raymond looked up and made eye contact.

Joseph was also well–liked in this circle, despite being a bit playboy–ish and arrogant.

Raymond didn’t say anything, but Alex spoke first. “It’s rare for Mr. Anderson to have such leisurely moments, so let’s play together.”

Alex had a gentle, delicate appearance with a mole on the tip of his nose. His narrow phoenix eyes fell on Selena, asking teasingly, “Mr. Anderson, are you changing your tastes?”

Selena hurriedly changed into a silk embroidered dress and rushed over without putting on any lipstick. Despite her unmade–up face, she still outclassed all the heavily made–up women in the room with her figure and temperament.

Since she entered, the men in the room couldn’t help but glance at her. This kind of cold beauty was not common in this circle.
