Isabella regretted her earlier decision. She realized
she had just dragged herself into this mess. One
little movement, and she could rub her back on
Seth’s chest. Goosebumps were flaring all over her.
“Ooh, he’s hot.” Bethany held her hands together
before her chest, her eyes sparkling. She teased,
“How do you feel?”
Isabella feigned calmness and shuffled the deck.
“Play all your good combos, lose the game, and
you’ll know.”
“Someone’s a schemer.” Dariel clicked his tongue NôvelDrama.Org content rights.
and smirked at Isabella.
Isabella’s throat was parched. Her hands were
sweating too, but she kept up her mask of

calmness and showed no sign of nervousness. She
finished shuffling her deck and looked at Gordon.
“You first, Mr. Dunkstein.”
Gordon wasn’t close to these people. One game,
and he knew he was sidelined, and that annoyed
him. The moment Isabella spoke to him, however,
the look on his face changed. Everyone could see
that Isabella was trying to cajole him, and they had
weird looks on their faces.
Bethany made a face, whereas Dariel gave a fake
smile. Simon was as gentlemanly as ever, while
Selena was careful not to speak out. Seth was
holding Isabella, his lips pursed, his face deadpan.
They were just close to each other, not doing
anything more than that. However, when they

started taking cards once more, Seth turned to his
side and brushed his lips over Isabella’s ear. It was
quick enough that nobody else noticed it.
Isabella clenched her teeth. She held back her
emotions and continued taking the cards. However,
Seth got into it a little. He would touch her from
time to time, squeeze her finger when they were
playing, and kiss her ear if he could. Whenever he
leaned back, he would pinch her waist.
Dang it! Isabella took a deep breath. When Bethany
was gasping after Dariel got the biggest card in the
deck, she stomped Seth’s foot.
Seth grunted, and everyone looked at him. Dariel
clicked his tongue and gave Seth a knowing look.

“It’s just a suit. You don’t have to be this excited.”
Seth looked calm, evidently unfazed. He took the
last card and tossed three twos onto the table.
“Take your suit off and see if you get excited.”
Dariel faked a sigh and kissed Bethany’s cheek. “Do
we have enough to counter this, babe?”
They were flirting openly, and everyone ignored
them. Isabella removed her foot from Seth’s, feeling
a lot better. However, she quickly got chills from the
surge of coldness coming from her waist. Seth
pulled her shirt up and slid his hand inside,
touching her waist. He has no shame at all.
“Three of spades.” She moved forward as she
played her card, evading Seth.

Bethany tossed a big combo like she did last game,
but Isabella didn’t play along. She had to push
down Seth’s hand with her other hand.
“No one’s taking it?” Bethany looked around, feeling
a little forlorn.
“You want to see Dariel’s pecs, don’t you?” Isabella
gritted her teeth, forcing a smile. “You can have it.”
Stop it, Seth! You pig!
After failing to touch Isabella’s waist, he started
playing with her fingers, rubbing them gently. It was
obvious he was playing with her.
No one was playing seriously. They let Bethany take
over the game. Three minutes later, Simon played
all his cards, and it was Dariel’s turn to strip.

Dariel was bolder than Seth. He’d like to walk
around too, and he let Bethany touch him however
she wanted. They even started talking dirty.
Everyone was fine with it, but Selena was so
embarrassed that she couldn’t even raise her head.
Simon shrugged in resignation. “Third game,
coming up next. Please put in some effort.”
No one said anything. It was a tacit agreement.
Isabella’s mind was a mess, and her breathing was
ragged. She didn’t want to prank Seth anymore. In
fact, she would help him into his suit if she had to.
Please don’t get the biggest card. We’ll have to play
them all at the same time, and we’ll lose.
Isabella was praying to the gods, but then Seth got

the biggest card.
“How lucky, Mr. Shaffer,” Bethany purred. She then
moved her gaze down Seth’s chest. If he loses, he
takes his pants off.
Isabella’s forehead was covered in sweat. She
wanted to kill herself for suggesting a stripping
game. She leaned closer to Seth and looked at his
cards. They were mediocre, and it put them in a
precarious position.
Seth never played card games like this, so she
wondered if he could win this. While she was being
nervous, Gordon had played a three of spades,
announcing the start of a game.
For some reason, things got tense. Gordon was a

good player, and he knew what cards to play. Two
rounds later, he’d already played half his hand.
Dariel and Simon couldn’t even butt into this level
of play. They exchanged looks and decided to stay
out of it. They weren’t the ones who had to strip,
after all.
Isabella held her breath, for she could feel her
heart pumping. She felt Seth’s breath circling over
her ear, and it sent electricity down her spine.
Gordon played another combo and shed ten more
cards. Isabella looked down. Meanwhile, Seth
brushed his finger across a few cards and played a
big combo too.
