Chapter 952


    Celeste hung around outside for a good while before going in.


    No idea how Mason got past that hurdle, but it seemed like Liam lost another round of the game after


    she left his face was redder than before, probably downed a few more drinks.


    Liam didn’t have a clue about his own tolerance for alcohol.


    Celeste texted Owen to pick up Liam, worried he’d get wasted and start talking gibberish.


    “Draw one”


    Mason handed her the box of cards, whispering. I’ll take you home after this round”


    “As long as you’re having fun, I can just take a cab Celeste said while drawing a card.


    Mason chuckled, “If I let you go alone, all my efforts tonight will go down the drain.”

    Celeste wanted to say that nobody would notice such a small detail, but the new round started before


    she could.


    She decided to bring it up after the game


    In the game “Who’s the Spy“, the rules were simple. Everyone drew a slip of paper and described the


    word written on it. One person had a different word from the others Everyone tried to guess who that


    person was, and if they guessed right, that person lost. If they guessed wrong, that person won.


    The loser of the game had to cover all the hotel expenses for the night for the wedding guests,


    excluding the wedding itself.N?vel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive ? material.


    And this was a high–end hotel, so the stakes were quite high.


    Upon hearing the game’s penalty, Trisha immediately wanted to bail


    Nics grabbed her, “What are you scared of? If you lose, I’ll foot the bill.”


    Trisha didn’t believe him, “You’ll probably bolt if I lose, won’t you?


    Nicsughed, pulled out a car key from his pocket, and handed it to her, “Here’s my car key. Is that


    good enough?”


    Trisha quickly pocketed the key. “If I lose, I’ll sell your car to pay.”


    Nics chuckled, whispering, “Okay, then you owe me ten years of cooking”


    Trisha retorted, “How about a lifetime of cooking for you?”


    Nics immediately replied, “Deal”


    Not only was Trisha afraid to lose, but Celeste was too.


    A normal suite for one night in this seven–star hotel was over a grand, and if it was fully booked, just


    the room cost would be tens of thousands


    Making money was hard, and Celeste was debating whether to drop out.


    Mason seemed to have read her mind, smiling. “Rx and have fun. If you lose, I’ll cover it


    Liam gave Celeste a dark look, clearly meaning, “Don’t you dare!”


    Celeste found it amusing- he hadn’t even started pursuing her yet and was already showing such


    strong possessiveness.


    Of course, she wouldn’t let Mason pay if she lost. She valued money too much to let herself lose.


    When Mason said this, she just smiled and said, “Let’s see how it goes.”


    A dozen people sat around a table, starting with the groom and ending with the bride


    Lyman Rowley said, “It’s thin


    Simon said, “It’s amon item.”


    Micha answered, “Methyl methacrte is one of itsponents.*


    Everyone stayed silent
