Chapter 711

Dognabbit. I just want to use the chance to be around Brennan more and find time to talk business with

him. Who'd have thought it'd come to this?!

However, Shirley had no regrets, for it was the only chance she had to get close to Garrick.

"Don't worry about it. It'd be a miracle if you could win a game of poker against those old foxes."

Garrick pulled a surprisingly amiable smile, leading Shirley to look at him with twinkling eyes filled with

gratitude and admiration.

But lo and behold, Skyler caught her gaze and he speculated her relationship with Garrick

groundlessly.

"When has Brennan started taking a liking to the babe-in-the- woods type?" he ridiculed after taking a

gander at Garrick.

"Have a cherry, Mr. Skyler," said Gianna as she popped a cherry into Skyler's mouth while sitting next

to him. "She looks pretty cute.

Even I'd fall for her, let alone Mr. Garrick."

"Here, let me teach you." Garrick pulled a chair over to sit next to Shirley, teaching her poker while

resting one arm on the back of her chair.

She had to admit that Garrick was amazing in poker, so much so that he could even guess what his

opponents had, and just like that, Shirley won ten games straight, successfully retrieving all her bet

money.

Then, the dishes had been fully served, and the utterly defeated few hurriedly waved their hands and

left the side all.

"C'mon, let's eat. I'm done playing."

"What freaking luck."

"You're Garrick's Lady Luck, aren't you, Miss?"

"It's because Garrick's lucky today."

"You can say that again."

As they played using checks and Garrick won over twenty million by the end of it, he pulled a five

hundred thousand check, the smallest amount among the stack, out and handed it to Shirley. "Yours.

Good work."

However, the young woman frowned while looking at the check. "I don't need it."

Who does he think I'm?! Anger laced her face as she pursed her lips, then mustered up the courage to

ask if he could give her his phone number, as the one she got earlier in the company was evidently his

assistant's.

"She's a daring one, eh?"

"Garrick, girls like her are good at playing hard to get. You should keep your eyes peeled."

"How about I give you my number instead, sweetheart?"

"A phone number instead of money? Tsk, tsk... Greedy."

While Garrick hesitated as the others judged Shirley, Skyler had enough. "What are you doing?"

"I didn’t realize I was supposed to report whatever I do to you!" Shirley was vexed.

She had promised Veronica not to tell anyone about her relationship with Vincere Games, so she didn't

want to bring it up.

"Why grovel at him when you can just come to me for money?!" Skyler grabbed Shirley by the wrist and

headed outside, but she wrestled it away and snapped, "Let go! What are you, a lunatic?! Who are you

to me to meddle in my business?!"

To Shirley, he was a licentious man. Hell, she wished she could stay as far away from him as possible.

D*ckhead!

After snapping at Skyler, she turned to Garrick. "President Brennan, can-"

But to her dismay, the man turned to the washroom without even sparing her a glance before she even

finished her words.

He had blatantly disregarded her, and Shirley thought her pride had been stepped on.

While everyone else looked silently at Skyler and her like they were enjoying a show, Gianna asked

gingerly, "Mr. Skyler, who's... she?"

To that, the man glared grimly. "What are you, blind?! Can't you tell she's a woman who wants to turn

from rags to riches?!"

Ever since he told Shirley about Wade at Matthew's 'funeral', she constantly infuriated him.
