A Cue For Love Chapter 869


    A Cue for Love Chapter 869


    The Casino Part One


    Since Fullmoon was well known as an establishment to splurge one’s wealth, it naturally had a casino


    in it.


    Inside, the casino was the busiest part of the club. It was packed like sardines and one could hear cries


    of joy and wails of disappointment ring out incessantly.


    With a stroke of luck, some felt as if they were in Heaven. While thosecking it felt as if they were


    being sent to Hell.


    After all, Heaven and Hell were nothing but states of mind.


    Subsequently, Yandel led Natalie and Lia into the casino, where Natalie observed everything that was


    going on with a detached state of mind.


    Inside, there were gorgeous female croupiers giving out cards everywhere. The crowd made out of


    prominent figures were so awestruck that their eyes could pop out anytime, while the tables were piled


    with mountains of chips that would astound anyone.


    Lia couldn’t contain her excitement. “Even though I heard that Yaleview had casinos, I can’t imagine


    what they look like until I see them with my own eyes!”


    Natalie broke into a faint smile. “The exposure will be good for you. Nevertheless, stay away from


    gambling.”


    “Why?” Lia asked curiously.


    “Risking a little to win something big is human nature,” Natalie mulled aloud. “As most people are


    ordinary folk, how many of them can ovee their own natural ws?”


    Nodded in agreement, Lia couldn’t help butment how Natalie seemed to be wiser to the world


    despite being younger than her. In truth, if not for Natalie’s reminder, she would have been pulled in by


    the infectious atmosphere and taken a seat at the gambling table.


    Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDra/ma.O(r)g!


    Despite their morous outfits, their gaze was calm, unaffected by the rush of the casino.


    Natalie’s goal was to immerse herself within the ambiance and get a feel of what Yaleview was like.


    After all, as a businesswoman, one needed to learn the local customs.


    At that moment, the sobs of a woman caught her attention.


    She looked about twenty-seven and was so thin that her face seemed sunken in. As her frizzy hairy


    upon her shoulders, her face was covered in tears.


    Underneath the miserable appearance, one could still see how exquisite her features were.


    “Caleb, stop gambling. Let’s go home, shall we?” thedy pleaded as she hugged a man’s arm. “I beg


    of you, stop gambling. You have already lost a lot. If you continue, we’ll lose everything!”


    Unexpectedly, Caleb Lance pushed Anna Appleby aside and berated her, “Stop saying that I’m losing!


    Ever since you came here, you keep repeating those words. Luck was on my side until you arrived.


    That’s when I started losing every hand. The moment you opened your mouth, all my luck went down


    the drain, you jinx!”


    Teary-eyed, Anna begged pitifully, “Fine, it’s my fault. Since your luck has turned, we should go home,


    all right? Our baby is only five months old, and she needs her daddy. It would be good if you could


    spend some time with her.”


    Her well-intentioned pleas were met by Caleb’s roar.


    “Get lost! I already made it clear that you’re a jinx! Which part of it do you not understand?”


    “Caleb…”


    Caleb’s attention was entirely focused on the card game in front of him. The pretty croupier asked, “Is


    this your fifth card? Are you going to call?”


    Due to the confidence he had in his cards and the encouragement he felt from the croupier’s


    resonating voice, Caleb dered with bravado, “I’m going to raise everything.” Just as he spoke, Caleb


    pushed all his chips toward the croupier.


    Anna was dumbstruck by his action.


    That’s a lot of chips! If he loses them, how are we going to pay for our uing living expenses?


    The croupier threw Caleb a coy nce. “You’ve got lots of guts, sir.”


    As he felt secretly delighted, the hysteria in his eyes began to grow. “Royal flush, royal flush…”


    Somewhere nearby, Natalie and Yandel observed Anna with mixed emotions.


    Both of them were old acquaintances of Anna. Thetter came from a family of academics and was the


    mysterious genius designer in the jewelry world called Muse.


    Nevertheless, this was the first time Natalie and Yandel saw Anna in such miserable circumstances.
