?Chapter 805:
Kurt had no ns to step in. As long as Christina wasn’t losing out, he was more than happy to let Lorraine make a fool of herself.
Davina pressed her lips together, barely holding back augh. Christina was the epic gambling expert, and Lorraine wanted to beat her at cards? That was like trying to teach a cat how to catch mice.
At the thought that Lorraine would lose her temper after suffering a crushing defeat, Davina already felt likeughing.
“Bring it on! I’m sure I’ll end up with the most wins,” Robin dered with a cocky grin, his eyes gleaming with interest.
The truth, though, was that he’d only jumped in because Christina wanted to y. He figured that as long as he kept winning, he could tease Christina with yful ease while warding off anyone who tried to get too close. With him around, no one would dare mess with her.
“Don’t get ahead of yourself, Robin. That grin of yours might turn into tearster,” Davina said meaningfully.
“You clearly don’t know how good I am at this. Unless my friend shows up, there’s no way I’ll lose,” Robin replied smoothly, full of confidence. His skills might not have been top-tier across the board, but he was sure they were more than enough to beat the three sitting across from him.
“Oh? Is your friend that impressive? We should set up a match sometime,” Davina suggested with raised brows.
Christina tried to cut Davina off, but it was already toote. She hadn’t told Davina what had happened at the Miller’s Casino yet. If Robin took Davina’s offer seriously and arranged a match right then, her cover would be blown. Luckily, Robin didn’t recklessly make the call, which made Christina quietly breathe a sigh of relief.
“Of course! My friend’s amazing. Other than Epic, he’s the one I admire the most!” Robin said proudly, basking in the glow of his friend’s reputation.<fnb4f5> This content belongs to FindN0vel</fnb4f5>

Davina, clearly intrigued by the way he spoke, found herself wondering who this friend of his was and whether their skills outmatched Christina’s. It never crossed her mind that the person in question was actually Christina herself. “Alright. Let’s meet your friend when we get the chance.” Davina agreed, eyes lit with curiosity.
After watching the conversation go back and forth for a while, Lorraine finally broke in, unable to hold back. “Can we start already?”
“Let’s go over the rules first. The winner’s the first to y all their cards, and the loser is whoever’s left holding anything at the end. Anyone got a problem with that?” Christina asked, her tone calm and clear.
“No objections,” the three replied in perfect unison. They had no issues with the rules.
Soon enough, a fresh deck of cards was brought in, and the first round began.
Robin started with a self-assured smile, but it slowly morphed into nervous sweat. Especially when Christina ced herst card down—he just sat there, stunned. How on earth did she end up with such perfect cards?
“I win. You three go on and see who loses,” Christina said, a subtle smirk tugging at her lips.
Kurt, who had been watching the group from not far away, let out a faint smile, his gaze settling on Christina with growing admiration. If she were to marry Robin, the Miller family would undoubtedly soar to new heights. She’d run Miller’s Casino like she was born to do it.
