Chapter 710

The conversation between the two made everyone puzzled. Everyone subconsciously exchanged

glances with each other. Even Garrick was somewhat surprised.

"Hey, do you know her, Skyler? Is she your guest of honor? Tsk. She looks quite innocent, though. I

couldn't tell how clever she was."

"Young ladies these days are smarter than you think."

"I looked down on you."

"Don't screw up, Garrick."

"Garrick, don't be blinded by this vixen."

Everyone started talking and maliciously speculating about Shirley.

Hearing the unpleasant words from the crowd, she was infuriated. Nevertheless, she was carrying a

significant amount of responsibility, and she had to struggle for the opportunity to negotiate cooperation

with Garrick. Otherwise, Veronica would be kicked out of the Vincere Games.

"President Brennan, I'm sorry. I was too nervous just now and played the wrong card. Can you... give

me another chance to win it back for you?" Shirley mustered up her courage and tried to make herself

seem less nervous.

Skyler noticed that there were stars in Shirley's eyes when she looked at Garrick, so he couldn't help

but frown. Walking over to the dealer's seat, he sat down and mocked, "You? Careful not to lose

Garrick's entire property."

His sentence elicited a burst of laughter from the crowd.

Hearing that, she couldn't control her heart from beating so fast. She felt like she was on tenterhooks

right now. She was so nervous that she could almost hear her own heartbeat clearly.

On the other hand, Garrick sat on his chair and crossed his legs while smoking a cigarette silently

without speaking.

The four quickly started a new round.

Skyler started first by placing an ante. Then, everyone looked at Shirley, but she returned a

dumbfounded gaze at them.

"Are you sure you know how to play?" Skyler rolled his eyes at her and pointed at the ante.

Only then did she realize it was her turn, so she quickly placed her ante.

Once the game officially started, everyone around quieted down. Shirley placed one of her hands

beside her and wiped her palm on her pants because she was sweating due to nervousness. This

movement quickly fell into Garrick's gaze. Raising one of his brows, he couldn't help but smirk.

"Raise." Skyler raised the bet.

When it was Shirley's turn, she said, "I fold."

"Straight Flush."

Skyler managed to win, so Shirley decided with a "call" in the next round.

"Straight Flush!"

Once again, Skyler won the round. He raised his brows and smirked. "Thanks."

"Do you even know how to play? You haven't gotten any good cards yet!"

"Yeah. What's wrong with you?"

"Why did you volunteer when you didn't know how to play?"

"What a buzzkill."

A few of them grunted and complained.

On the other hand, Shirley was so nervous that she almost suffocated. Not daring to speak, she silently

flipped her cards and decided with another "call."

"Royal Flush!"

Skylar threw the cards on the table and started clapping. "Did you just read my mind? Why are you

giving me everything I want?"

"Are you here to pick a fight?"

"What the hell?"

"Did she go easy on him?"

"Cheating?"

"Young lady, do you know how much losing a round costs? In less than five minutes, you already lost

2.5 million for Garrick!"

2.5 million? Shirley was flabbergasted.

Even though she knew that the riches bet a large number, she never expected to lose one million as

soon as she sat down.

Her breathing was stagnant, and even though the air conditioner was turned on in the private room,

she felt warm and sweaty.

"P-President Brennan, I..."

Mustering her courage to look at Garrick, Shirley apologized, "I'm sorry, l-l didn't do it on purpose."
