Chapter 17


    Chapter 17


    Preston patted her hand and tried tofort her, “Khloe, you know Roman. He didn’t mean it.”


    Khloe was unwilling to let Roman off easily. Although she used to be a top escort in Nightshade, she


    didn’t want to hear the word “selling” again now that she was with Preston.


    She couldn’t argue with Roman, but she could deal with his


    woman.


    “Let’s forget about it. We’re here just to have fun.”


    “But sitting here is boring. Why don’t we y a game?”


    Hearing the word “game,” everyone became interested.


    “What game?”


    Khloe took out a few decks of cards and ced them on the


    table.


    “Let’s y a team card game. The losing team must take off one piece of clothing.”


    “Interesting.”


    Roman was thrilled with the idea, and he agreed right away. And the other men would not resist the


    temptation either.

    Preston turned his head and nced at him. “Griffon, they often y like this. If you don’t want to…”


    Before he could finish his sentence, Griffon took a card from Khloe. “How do we y?”


    Preston was shocked. His cousin had always avoided such ces, yet today, just because Roman


    invited him to meet a woman who looked like Tara, he had agreed toe and was now patiently


    ying games with them. That was odd.


    Khloe didn’t expect Griffon, who was rumored to be uninterested in women, to be so easygoing and


    willing to y with them. She immediately smiled. Content is property of N?velDrama.Org.


    “It’s very simple. Let me exin the rules to you.”


    After exining the rules, Khloe gathered everyone to draw lots and form teams.


    ***


    I sat stiffly on the sofa, not sure what to do.


    Just as I was hesitating about how to refuse, Khloe seemed to read my mind and spoke up first.


    “Everyone has to participate. Ms. Palmer, you’re not going to turn me down in front of everybody,


    right?”

    3/3


    All eyes turned to me, making me feel ufortable. As if not ying would ruin the fun for everybody.


    I couldn’t afford to offend anyone here, so I forced myself to participate.


    Seeing that I was willing toply, Khloe didn’t say anything


    more.
