Chapter 159

Janet’s sharp gaze sent a shiver down the maid’s spine.

After a brief moment of astonishment, the maid jerked to Daran and cried, “M–Master, she is

threatening me!”

Daran raised an eyebrow.

Jsaw a fleeting smile in his eyes as though he was amused by their conversation.

Yet the next second, that faint smile was gone.

And he was back to being cold and indifferent again.

“Master, you have to punish her! She is so disrespectful,” the maid pouted

“How did she threaten you?” Daran said coolly, “I didn’t notice,”

The maid parted her lips like a fool, “B…But you heard her saying that kind of stuff…the sword training

and how many rogues she killed”

“She was simply laying out the truth,” he said.

The maid twisted her lips in fume.

She wanted to say something else, but Daran cut her off, “Go take a shower,”

That meant that he was taking her to bed now!

The maid beamed and jumped off the couch, heading towards the bathroom.

She gave a disdainful look at Jwhen she walked by and murmured, “Bitch,”

Jlet out a snort internally.

The bathroom door closed with a thud followed by the sound of running water.

Jtook in a deep breath and turned back to Daran, “So, master, if there is nothing

else-”

“Hold on.”

Daran leaned in and grabbed her chin, staring deep into her eyes,

“I am going to fuck that woman tonight,” he said in a sullen voice, “Do you have anything else to say to

that?”

Jclenched her skirt, “…You made a decision. Then that is it.”

“And you are fine with that?”

Jlowered her eyelids and said nothing.

“Look at me!” he hissed, tightening his grip. “You said that you didn’t love me. Then whom do you love?

Westin? You just met him for less than a week! We have known each other for years-”

“Then you can imagine the feeling of being betrayed by someone whom you have known for years.”

Jrescued her chin from Daran’s grip and stood up.

“Master, please allowto excuse myself.” she said to him calmly, “And…have a good night.”

She didn’t give Daran a chance to say anything else and walked out of the room.

Before the door closed up, she heard a loud noise behind her, as though the tea set was swept to the

floor.

It was about dinner time.

Jwent down to the basement, thinking that maybe she should grab a bite before confronting

Wendy about the room arrangement again.

She cto the dining hall and heard sloud cheering and laughter inside.

“Wendy, you got a pair! Westin, tfor the showdown! Show us what you got!”

Jpushed the door a crack and found a large crowd gathered by the long dining table.

Wendy and Westin sat on the opposite side with sdice, cards, and coins on the table.

They were playing Texas Hold’em poker.

“Westin, if you have something larger than a pair, then you win. You can take all the money I have left

and as promised-”

Wendy looked at Westin with a sheepish smile.

“I am going to give you a kiss.”

Westin raised an eyebrow.

Before laying his cards out on the table, he casually looked up and found Jstanding by the door.

“Janet!”

His eyes lit up and he stood up at once, “I have been waiting for you.”

He pushed his chair away and smiled at the astonished crowd, “You guys have fun. I have something

else to do.”

“But–But you haven’t shown your cards yet!” Wendy stuttered, “The game–the bet-”

“I fold.”

Westin tossed his cards to the table and pushed all his coins across the table to Wendy, “You win.

Congratulation.”

“You are so close to winning!” one maid cried, “Giving up right now is such a pity!” “Well, I don’t like to

keep a lady waiting.”

Westin shrugged and waved his hand, “Later guys.

He walked up to Jand flashed her a wink, “Shall we? I have a surprise for you.”

They exited into the hallway.

Jasked him where they were going but Westin looked all mysterious and just told her to follow

him.

They walked down the long corridor.

Jcouldn’t help but ask him, “What cards do you have back in there?”

“Full house,” Westin said in an offhand tone.

That was huge!

He would definitely win if he stuck around.

Jgasped “You are kidding! Then why did you walk away? You would have taken

every penny out of Wendy’s pocket.”

“Like I said,” Westin gave her a gentle smile. “I don’t like you keep you waiting. Not even for a second.”

More sweet talk.

This man really knew his way around women.

“Plus…” Westin added, “If I win, she will want to offera kiss. I don’t want that. So it is better to lose

smoney and just walk away.”

Jteased, “Walking away from a pretty girl’s kiss? I didn’t know that you are such a gentleman.”

Westin chuckled deeply. His sexy, husky voice echoed in the hallway.

“Wrong. I am not a gentleman. There is only one woman in this world that I want her to kiss me, and

that woman is not Wendy.”

Jfelt her cheeks flaming.

She was glad that the hallway was dark, and Westin could not see the tinge on her face.

“So…”

Westin leaned in and whispered into her ear, “…When can we play poker?”

Jsteadied her heartrate and said, “I don’t know how to play poker.”

“It is easy. I can teach you.”

“Why? So that you can win all my money away?”

“No.” he grinned, “So that I can spend more twith you.”

This man.

He was impossible to resist.

Jdidn’t know how to answer. While she was struggling with an answer, she heard Westin say,

“This is us.”

They were standing in front of a door.

“What is this place?” Jasked.

Westin gestured for her to open the door with an encouraging look.

Jturned the doorknob and pushed the door open.

She was stunned.

Jwas too shocked to utter a single word.

“So. Do you like it?”

Westin pushed her into the room and closed the door.

…I am not.” Jlooked around the room. “Did you get this room for me?”

“Yeah. Before you got here, I played a few rounds of poker with Wendy and secured this room for you.”

The last man who went through all these troubles to take care of her was her brother, Casper.

Jturned around to face him and said, “Thank you…for all the trouble.”

Jlaughed, “Do you always say what you think out loud?”

“Yes. I am a very straightforward man.”

Westin took a step forward, closing the gap between them, and cupped her face.

“And right now I am thinking…this is probably the right timing to kiss you.”
