?Chapter 810:


    Lorraine clenched her fists tight, practically burning with frustration. Out of everyone in the Miller family, Kurt was the most difficult barrier to get around. If only he weren’t breathing anymore. He was the single biggest obstacle standing between her and a ce in the Miller family.


    Dark thoughts swirled in her mind as she walked off, clearly unwilling.


    After Lorraine left, still wearing that face covered by random scribbles and colorful marks, Robin immediately posed a question to Christina with visible curiosity. “Did you really cheat?”


    Christina arched a brow and asked in return, “Did you see me cheat?”


    “No,” Robin admitted with a shake of his head, utterly honest.


    Christinaughed lightly. “Well then, I won fair and square—with a little help from luck and skill.”


    In the world of gambling, cheating was a skill in itself as long as one didn’t get caught. That said, she hadn’t cheated this time. Her luck had been on point, and her technique had sealed the win.


    “Really? But I still think you cheated. Otherwise, howe I always end up in second ce? I’ve never beaten you. It makes no sense,” Robin said, his voice edged with bitterness.


    “Maybe your gambling skills just aren’t as good as mine?” Christina replied with a teasing grin.


    “I refuse to believe that,” Robin shot back, unwilling to admit defeat.


    Ever since he met her, it felt like he’d been hit with a wave of bad luck. He couldn’t beat her in a fight, he lost to her in jet skiing, and now even his gambling skills couldn’t hold a candle to hers. What stung most was that ever since meeting her, even his winning streak in gambling had vanished, lost to his elusive friend.


    Thinking of his friend, Robin’s expression shifted with pride. “Don’t get too full of yourself. If you’re really that good, why don’t you have a match with my friend someday? If you beat him, I’ll eat my hat!”

    Right on cue, Kurt’s cheerful voice echoed from behind. “Now that’s something I’d love to see! Be sure to invite me—I want front-row seats.” Heughed heartily.


    “Grandpa! You’re supposed to be on my side! Why are you mocking me? I’m pretty good at gambling, you know!” Robin scowled, clearly exasperated.


    “Yes, yes, you’re very good—always the runner-up,” Kurt replied with a boomingugh.


    “How can you make fun of me like that? Aren’t you my grandfather?” Robin cried, shooting him an aggrieved re.


    “Of course, I am your grandpa. If only I had a granddaughter like Miss Jones,” Kurt said with a grin. “If she agrees to be my god-granddaughter, I’ll name her my heir and let you step aside.” He chuckled, clearly enjoying himself.


    Upon hearing Kurt’s words, Robin rolled his eyes in exasperation. His grandfather certainly knew how to irritate him.


    “Kurt, stop teasing Robin already,” Christina said,ughing as she nudged him lightly.


    Robin replied sulkily, “You’re overthinking it. His nonsense doesn’t faze me.”
