    Tara’s lips curled into a smile, her eyebrows slightly raised as she teased, “I do know my ce. Ms.


    Cam is still here.”


    She discreetly observed Connor’s expression. Most of the wealthy young people here looked to him


    for cues, and he was notoriously hard to please. She had barely interacted with him.


    However, he was a kind gentleman. She thought that by saying this, Connor would naturally invite


    her over. Unexpectedly, Connor picked up his phone without changing his expression and started


    pressing buttons.


    Tara pouted and pretended to be pitiful, “It seems there’s no ce for me.”


    Loganughed and said, “It seems that seat is reserved for someone special. He nudged the


    person next to him, “Move over, make room for thedy.”


    Cam was led by Rita into a room where a group was gathered around ying poker. She noticed


    several stacks of cash on the table, seemingly amounting to tens of thousands.


    Cam thought of the phrase ‘drunk on wealth.‘ It wasn’t surprising that such wealthy individuals


    enjoyed poker. It was said that on some asions when meeting the parents of wealthy families,


    the elders would set up a poker table and y a few rounds first.


    A person’s character could often be reflected in their poker skills. Her grandmother and aunt also


    loved poker, sometimes ying all night. However, Cam had no interest in poker at all.


    When the group saw Rita leading a beautiful woman in, they scrutinized her closely


    “This is my friend, Cam. She’ll y for me. Rita said, pulling Cami to her vacant seat.


    “No, no, no, I don’t y poker, Cam quickly waved her hands.


    “You don’t y? Rita asked, surprised.


    “I really don’t,” Cam exined, smiling. “You y. I’ll just watch.”


    “Alright then, you can help me with the cards. If we win, we split it. If we lose, it’s on me–no, if we


    lose, fill ask Connor for it,” Rita said.


    Everyone perked up at the mention of Connor’s name, exchanging knowing looks. Someone


    curiously asked, “What’s the rtionship between this girl and Connor?”


    “She’s with Connor,” Rita dropped casually, indicating they shouldn’t get any ideas.


    “L” Cam gave an awkward smile, about to exin.


    “Sit down,” Rita said, not giving her a chance to speak and pulling Cam down next to her.


    Cam sighed. Now it was even harder to rify.


    The cards were dealt, and Rita quickly arranged hers. Cam didn’t understand any of it.


    “Your turn to draw,” Rita prompted her.

    Cam reluctantly reached out to draw a card, thinking that with her luck, Rita would give up soon.


    She ced the drawn card in front of Rita. “Wow! You’ve got a killer hand, Cam!” Rita eximed


    excitedly.


    Cam just smiled. She didn’t understand, but she could see the excitement on Rita’s face.


    “Full house! Ritaughed,


    Soon after.


    “I won! Hahaha!”


    “Cam, you’re really Rita’s lucky star. She’s been losing all night, someone nearbyughed.


    “Forty thousand each, pay up.” Rita couldn’t stop smiling.


    Cern looked shocked. The stakes were as high as her monthly sry,


    Rita’s poker chip pocket was now quite full. “I was thinking of using you to win some money from


    Connor, but it seems we don’t need to now she said cheekily to Cam


    For over an hour, it was almost always Rita who won.


    Then, someone from the opposite side jumped–up, eximing, “Did Cam just touch a lucky


    charm before this? She’s ruthless! Are you and your sister–inw conspiring against us?”
