During dinner, as everyone chatted away, Isabella had the dishes cleared."Are you playing cards?" she asked.Charlotte sat up straight, blushing.Eli calmly lifted his teacup, saying, "I don't play."Griffith glanced at him.Unfazed, he continued, "The fortune teller told me to quit gambling recently."He wasn't foolish enough to face Charlotte off again.Clifford and the others, oblivious to this, urged him to play on the side. Upon hearing this, Eli went to the side and found Marina to play with. Isabella brought the cards and stood next to Mason, making jokes to break the ice.On the opposite side, Justin drank, his face turning red, but his expression remained cold."Mr. Hoffman seems a bit drunk," Charlotte said.Justin glanced at her, answering, "Not really.""Is there any tea for him to sober up?" Charlotte asked Isabella.Smiling, Isabella replied, "If I didn't even have tea, I would have closed up the shop long ago."She gestured toward the teapot, which had been

There was only the sound of cards being dealt on the table. As soon as the cards were shuffled, Eli, standing behind Clifford, clicked his tongue.Clifford said, "What are you doing, trying to dampen my morale?""With your cards, unless there's a spy, get ready to go bankrupt."Clifford paid no attention. In this round, Charlotte got a good hand, and the dealer was Justin.Without lifting his head, Clifford stated his wish, "I want the castle you have in Hurba.""Go upstairs and sleep now. Dreaming might speed things up for you."Clifford clicked his tongue twice.Charlotte had wagered Wilson Corp's only piece of land in King City. In this equivalent exchange, Justin exchanged one piece of land for another, gambling on a piece of land of nearly the same size. Mason had wagered shares of a stadium, which complemented the others.One round of cards was worth over a billion.Charlotte took a sip of water, raised her eyes, and met the gaze of Marina across the table. Marina smiled

Charlotte had just witnessed someone's intimate moment and wasn't sure about the current situation with Marina, so she felt hesitant to approach. Justin noticed that Griffith seemed to be leaving and took the initiative to step forward a few paces.Griffith said, "There's no need to deliver those two pieces of land. It's just a casual game."Justin lit a cigarette and glanced at him, saying, "Your words sound polite, but I know you think otherwise. Are you worried I won't deliver them, so you’re here to remind me?"Griffith showed no embarrassment at being exposed and looked in Marina's direction."I have a piece of life advice."Justin responded, "I’m not really interested."After a moment of silence, Griffith decided to let it go. He had also experienced hardships, and it wouldn't be right for Justin to suffer less.He changed the subject and said, "The Pace family wants to get involved in the South City Project. Be careful.""Got it."Griffith remembered something else an

Charlotte didn't know what Nicole had experienced during her escape, but even without that period, she believed Nicole wouldn't have an easy time. The father who doted on her became the sworn enemy of her lover. The man she gave her sincere love to turned out to be meticulously plotting to kill her father.Such a blow, who could bear it? What could she do? Kill Jude? But she was pregnant with Jude's child. Could she kill the father of her child?Just thinking about it made Charlotte's scalp numb. Between these two people, it seemed like an inescapable deadlock.Even if Jude died, Nicole would only be more miserable.Griffith listened to the description from the servants. Charlotte walked out of the mansion and heard children talking outside."She is your mom, a good person!" It was Julie's voice."She likes to smash things...""But she is still your mom."The two kids clearly weren't on the same page. Charlotte walked over and found Ash standing by the car door with an expressi

Griffith donated a large amount of money to Blissful Church every year. When he came up the mountain late at night, the old priest thought something had happened. Little did he know they were there just to add oil to a lamp in front of Griffith's mother's grave.The old priest, sharp-eared and clear-eyed, could tell from their appearance that they were here for a specific purpose.The last time Charlotte came to the memorial hall, there were many people around, and she felt a bit nervous. This time, the old priest and two other priests opened the hall for them and left after finishing the preparations.In the dimly lit memorial hall, only Griffith and Charlotte were present. Charlotte thoughtfully took a bouquet of flowers and placed them inside.Griffith chatted for a while, mostly telling his mother that they came to visit her.Suddenly, he called her.Charlotte glanced around in a somewhat ghostly manner, then moved closer to him. "What's up?"Griffith said, "...Say a few wor
