Scarlett curled her lips slightly, took the chips out of the basket, and placed them in front of her. Chris also took out his chips. Seeing this, Dewey smiled, "Your relationship is as good as ever." Scarlett looked at the hole cards and smiled lightly, "Mr. Shepard, thanks for your concern." Chris didn't join their conversation. He tapped on the table and told the dealer his decision. Dewey started talking about the things in the business circle, and Scarlett chatted casually with him.

When Dewey tried to induce Chris into joining them, Chris always said, "Let's talk about it another day."

When Dewey asked a question, if Scarlett answered, Chris would keep silent, and if Chris answered, Scarlett would keep silent.

They were too stubborn, so Dewey felt bored and gradually stopped talking.

After playing a few hands, Dewey felt it was dull, so after he answered a call, he said, "Would you please excuse me? Let's play together next time. Mr. Shaw and Ms. Reed, please remember to send me an invitation when you hold your wedding."

Scarlett held the cards and lowered her head with a half-smile.

Chris raised his eyebrows and said the longest sentence he had ever said to Dewey today, "Mr. Shepard, you can rest assured.

We will definitely send the invitation to you. Goodbye."

Dewey nodded, glanced at Scarlett, turned around, and walked out of the room.

As soon as he got out, the smile on his face disappeared.

He turned to glance at his assistant and said, "Go and check what Raymond has been doing over the past six months." Raymond had been missing for half a year, but now he had suddenly appeared here, so Dewey felt things were not simple.

Scarlett was in charge of Tenton now.

Since Raymond was all right, why hadn't he shown up in public?

Dewey held some old grudges against Raymond. Moreover, his company had lost to Tenton in the competition for a project two months ago. So, since he met Raymond and Sarlett again, his fury rose in his heart, but he had to pretend to be calm

Dewey was a hypocrite. He originally thought that he could get some information from them, but he got nothing after more than half an hour.

These two people were good at keeping secrets!

Not long after Dewey left, Scarlett looked at the dealer who was ready to leave and then smiled at Chris, "Do you remember him?"

Chris shook his head, "No, I don't."

She said, "Well, you are really able to think on your feet."

He was quite good at acting. When Dewey had said hello to Chris, Scarlett had rarely worried because she had thought Dewey would find Chris had amnesia.

Although Scarlett had not met Dewey face to face before, she had fought him in business. Frank had told her that Dewey was a wolf in sheep's clothing.

A hypocrite was more terrifying than an ordinary villain. Since Scarlett met him, she had raised her vigilance. Therefore, when answering his questions just now, she had mixed truth with falsehood. Anyway, Dewey had no way to verify. She wondered what bad intention he had, but now, she was sure he could not do anything.

When Chris looked at the smile on the corners of Scarlett's lips, his black eyes darkened slightly, and he remembered that dream again.

Chris swallowed slightly, looked down at the chips in front of him, and asked, "Do you want to continue?"

Just now Dewey had been the banker, and the bet was 100,000 dollars each round.

And they had actually won 500,000 dollars within half an hour.

Scarlett glanced at the chips on the table and shook her head, "No."

While speaking, she yawned.

It was almost ten o'clock now, so she wanted to take a bath and go to bed now.

It had been eight days since she had come to Bomsville, so she had long adjusted to the jet lag. Raymond had been missing for more than half a year, so she had been busy, but her routine had not changed much, and she had even occasionally made time to go to the boxing gym.
