Chapter 83

Rita looked at the pile of poker chips spilling out of her cup with satisfaction. "Let's settle up, now"

The poker table was stacked with chips as Connor walked in from outside. "How did it go?" He expressionlessly walked up behind Rita. Camila and Rita turned around.

"Ha ha ha, tonight's winnings!" Rita pointed proudly at the high stack of chips in front of her, "Camila is my lucky star!"

A smile flickered in Connor's eyes.

The person across sighed, "Rita was almost out of chips, but once your friend here arrived, she started raking it in." Connor just stood by, smiling nonchalantly

won $128,000!" Rita beamed, "Camila, you deserve half the credit. Give me your bank details, Il transfer you $64,000

Camila's jaw dropped in shock, realizing that to the wealthy, money seemed just like numbers.

"No, no, I didn't do anything, I can't accept it Camila waved her hands frantically.

Just transfer it to my account Connor said.

"No way, why should I give it to you?" Rita glared at him, then turned to Camila, "I buy you a gift instead. Let's go shopping this weekend" Camila smiled in response, "That's really not necessary"

"It is necessary," Connor said, giving Camila a meaningful look. "You won it fair and square. Why not take it?"

He smiled as he made the first cut, quickly want through the motions, and then handed it off to the servants.

The first slice of the cake was handed to Connor Without turning his head, Connor passed the cake to Camila.

Camila, as the first to receive the cake, felt a bit embarrassed and tried to pass it to the person next to her, who immediately waved her hands and stepped back, creating a clear boundary between them. She looked around in confusion, noticing that aside from Connor, everyone else had stepped far away.

Didn't anyone like cake?

She genuinely loved sweets, and since no one else wanted it, she wasn't going to hold back

From the moment the cake was polled out, she had been eyeing it, certain it would be delicious.

She happily ate the cake, and when she looked up again, the people who had earlier refused her offer were also happily enjoying their
