Chapter 305 She Gets Flirted With
From where Laila was sitting, she could not see what Hearst did, but Karen saw it clearly.
Karen thought, I thought Jared was some kind of gentleman. After all, he is the boss of Prudential Group. Who knows? He does
these provocative sorts of things in front of others as well.
Sure enough. All men think with their lower parts.
Such a finding somehow shattered Karen's fantasy. Yet soon, she was in a better mood.
It was good that Hearst wasn't a gentleman, since she would have a greater chance.
She thought, every man cheats. With a little bit of effort, I can get him.
Not long after, someone from the kitchen came over to inform them that dinner was ready.
They went to the dining room to eat.
At the dinner table, Laila asked Adams and his family to spend the night.
Adams wanted to talk to Terry more, so he did not refuse.
Anaya and Hearst had nothing to do, so they agreed as well.
Karen felt that she had a let-out now. She hurriedly kicked Danielle and winked at Danielle.
Danielle knew what Karen wanted to do, so she said to Laila, "Laila, can Karen and I stay here tonight? I haven't chatted with you
for a long time. I want to spend more time with you."
Laila was talking to Anaya with a smile. When she heard Danielle's voice, the smile on her face disappeared instantly. "I have
nothing to talk to you about."
She rejected Danielle so straightforwardly. Thick-skinned as Danielle was, she still felt a little embarrassed.
Danielle wasn't exactly one of those people who suffered in silence. She said aggrievedly, "Laila, I know you feel embarrassed

"Kelton refused to give me the resources. Otherwise, I would not have been tricked by Mr. Clark. I wasn't thinking straight. That
was why I made a mistake..."
Hearing that, Kelton dropped his fork on the table. "Did I force you to sell your body? Did I force you to exchange your body for
resources? Did I help you contact a client or prepare some sex toys for you?"
Kelton's words were harsh, making Danielle ashamed. Her face turned pale, and she could not find any words to refute Kelton.
Laila wanted to reprimand Kelton for his vulgar words, but when she saw the look on Danielle's face, she kept silent.
She thought, forget it. I can talk to Kelton later. The important thing now is to take the same side as a family.
The atmosphere at the dining table froze. Adams and Terry were both soft-hearted and could not bear to see Danielle
embarrassed. Adams opened his mouth, "Enough now. Danielle made a mistake, and now she regrets it. You'll embarrass her."
Terry echoed, "That's right. It's all in the past. Just forget it. Let's eat. After dinner, I'll get the spare room made up for the two
girls."
Terry's words made Laila unhappy. However, she shouldn't continue, since she was an elder present. It would make her
ungracious.
She glared at Terry and stepped on him.
Terry grimaced in pain and appeased Laila. After he coaxed Laila for a long time, she finally wasn't that angry anymore.
After dinner, Laila invited everyone to play cards.
Danielle wanted to sit next to Laila, but Laila pulled Anaya to sit on her right hand and let Kelton sit on her left hand, completely
separating herself from Danielle.
Danielle could do nothing and had to sit opposite Laila. Playing cards alone would be boring. Laila proposed to bet a little, which
was about 20 dollars for a round.
The others had no objections. They all agreed.
Anaya seldom played cards. She didn't even know the basic rules.
They played two rounds, and she lost both games. She would even play the wrong card occasionally. Seeing that, Karen gloated
silently, but she didn't show her real emotions on her face.
"Ms. Dutt, why don't you let me play a few rounds? You may see me and learn from aside."
Finally, Karen managed to find something in Anaya that was inferior to her. Her tone was filled with pride and smug.
Without waiting for Anaya to speak, Hearst, who was standing beside Anaya, said lightly, "Let me."
Anaya looked at him suspiciously. "You know how to play cards?" In her eyes, given Hearst's temperament, he didn't strike her as
someone who knew about playing cards.
He looked like a nobleman who only knew how to play snooker and golf.
Hearst looked down at her and said with an intimate smile, "Have you forgotten where I came from?" Then Anaya remembered
that he had lived in Las Vegas.
He could not be more familiar with things related to gambling.
Anaya stood up and stepped down. "Win all my money back."
After that, she gently pulled Hearst's tie, pulled him down, leaned close to his ear, and whispered, "If you lose, sleep on the sofa
tonight."
Her words were quite unreasonable.
As soon as she finished speaking, she heard his chuckle.
Anaya and Hearst were very close. He slightly tilted his head and kissed her on the cheek. His voice was somewhat helpless and
somewhat indulgent as he said, "OK."
Anaya did not expect that he would dare to kiss her in front of so many people. Her heart skipped a beat, and the tip of her ears

She wanted to act unreasonably, yet she got flirted with. She was such a failure. She loosened her tie in a panic and coughed
lightly. "Sit down and get ready. The game is about to start."
Hearst held back his laughter. "Alright."
Their interaction was seen clearly by everyone present. Some were happy while others were frustrated.
Karen glared at Anaya, feeling very unhappy.
Anaya stood behind Hearst and watched him play cards seriously.
She thought that when Hearst said that he knew how to play cards, it meant that he got the gist, and he wasn't that good at it. To
her surprise, he kept winning.
Not only did he win back all the money she lost just now, he even earned almost 160 dollars for her.
Anaya watched him play cards from the side and felt excited, as if she was the one sitting there, being undefeatable.
He only earned 160 dollars, but it made her feel even more satisfied than getting an order that was worth several million dollars!
After winning a few rounds, Hearst started to feel bored and said to Anaya, "Sit. I've got all your money back already." He was
about to get up, but Anaya pressed him down.
"Continue and play a few more rounds. I'll watch from aside."
He raised his head and happened to meet her sparkling eyes.
She was so full of interest, like a little girl who found her beloved toy. Hearst asked, "What do I get for winning?" Anaya was
puzzled. "Money, isn't it?"
Hearst raised his eyebrows as if he was saying that a few hundred dollars could hardly be called a reward. Anaya frowned.
"What do you want?"
Hearst's face was full of smiles. He raised his head and leaned close to her ear. His voice was hoarse and magnetic. He said in a
low voice, "If I win, I will sleep in the bed tonight, and there's one more request.
"Whatever I ask you to do tonight, do it."
