Chapter 851

Back when Yvonne was still at the Hackett’s residence, she had often played poker with Mrs. Hackett. So she knew her way around the game.

At first, Yvonne had been unwilling to join Caroline and the others, fearing that they would shower more praise on Caroline.

However, since Caroline didn’t know how to play, Yvonne figured she could outshine her in poker.

Unaware of Yvonne’s thoughts, Marietta felt relieved to see the former becoming more sensible.

“Alright, so four of us can form a table.”

Betty had no objections to that. “Sure.”

Then, the four of them took their seats.

Before the game started, Yvonne said, “Mom, Mrs. Yates Senior, I don’t know how to play. So please go

easy on me.”

She had said that on purpose. She wanted to impress everyone with her skills.

Soon, the first round began. Just as they were about to receive their cards, the other three ladies noticed

something.

At some point, Kirk had asked someone to place a chair behind Caroline. She didn’t turn back to look.

Instead, she lowered her head and gripped the cards tightly.

Kirk was very close to Caroline. She could feel his breath brushing over her neck several times, tickling

her. She had a strong urge to escape.

However, Caroline had already sat down for the game. She had nowhere to run. Left with no choice, she

had to endure the subtle warmth of his breath on her skin.

After a while, she couldn’t bear it any longer. She turned her head and met Kirk’s eyes.

“Mr. Y,” she whispered, her voice carrying a hint of plea.

“Could you please keep your distance from me?”

She had never been good at playing poker. With Kirk being so close to her, she was bound to lose today.

Kirk’s eyelashes fluttered as he admired Caroline’s blushing face. It had been a long time since he had

last seen her in such a state.

Back then, he had loved seeing Caroline blush the most. The sight of her face turning red could sweep

away all of his worries.

It was still the same now.

Kirk glanced at Caroline’s cards before asking, “You don’t know how to play, right?”

“Do you know how?” she inquired, looking at him with hope.

To her disappointment, he shook his head. “No, I don’t. But I can be your financial supporter.”

Even though they spoke in hushed tones, Betty still overheard them. They were seated at the same table,

after all.

She immediately commented in admiration, “Wow! Mr. Y wants to be Carrie’s financial supporter. How I

wish someone could back me up like that, too!”

As Betty spoke, she cast a meaningful glance at Sean. Upon hearing her words, a horrified expression

came over his face, and he quickly retreated.

His mother always gambled in millions of dollars. There was no way Sean could afford it.

Marietta chimed in with a smile. “Carrie, since this gentleman is willing to sponsor you, let him have a

look at your cards. This way, he can feel a sense of involvement, too.”

Yvonne was the only one gritting her teeth silently. She honestly couldn’t comprehend how Caroline could

attract so many great men.

Moreover, this man seemed to be a big shot. But what did it matter? Yvonne was determined to give

Caroline a taste of defeat.

Soon, it was time for the betting round. Caroline genuinely didn’t know how to play. She casually placed a

bet.

Betty glanced at her cards. In an instant, she exclaimed with delight, “Oh, Carrie! Starting by giving me a

good hand, huh?”

Caroline was embarrassed. “I really don’t know how to play poker,” she responded.

Yvonne became even more confident upon seeing that.

As expected, Caroline lost in the first round, and the ultimate victor was Yvonne. Right then, Betty’s gaze

toward Yvonne changed slightly.
