Chapter 300
Estelle didn’t dare to sit any longer, or who knows what they
might say, “I’m going out first, just call me if you need anything!”
Jonathan frowned slightly, “You’re not even busy, where are you going?”
Charlie also said, “Don’t go, let’s play a board game together, the three of us!”
Estelle had played with Jonathan a few times but she wasn’t proficient. She shook her head, “No can d
o, I’m sure I’ll lose.”
Charlie pulled out the cards and laughed, “I got you covered, just play without worries. If you win, it’s yo
urs; if you lose, it’s on me!”
Jonathan glanced at him, “You’ve got some nerve!”
Charlie laughed, “Well, that’s me!”
He shuffled the cards with both hands, then Josiah, suddenly ran over, all excited, “What are you guys
playing? Count me in!”
Seeing him coming, Estelle took the opportunity to get up, “You guys can play together then!”
Charlie glanced at Josiah, “How come you’re out here?”
Josiah said, “Carson’s covering for me!”
Charlie said, “Then you play with Jonathan, I’ll go look for Carson.” This text is property of Nô/velD/rama.Org.
Josiah took the cards from his hands, “Alright, you go!”
Charlie smiled at Estelle, “Still the same as before, if you
win, it’s yours; if you lose, it’s on me. I’ll even get you ice cream!”
Jonathan’s eyes swept over Charlie coldly. Charlie provocatively raised his eyebrows and turned to find
those playing mahjong.
Josiah shuffled the cards, glancing at Estelle, and he couldn’t figure out whether she was with Charlie o
r with Jonathan.
The three of them started playing, and Josiah got some chips and set the stakes.
Estelle was taken aback and frowned, “Isn’t this a bit too much?”
Josiah just wanted to scare her and said indifferently, “Too much? That’s how we usually play!”
“It’s alrightz!” Jonathan’s gaze was deep, speaking casually, “Let’s start!”
Estelle didn’t say anything more and started picking the cards.
She didn’t know much, but she could see her cards were terrible, so she didn’t dare to make any big m
oves. Josiah’s cards were quite good, and he was smug about it.
But even good cards couldn’t stand against Estelle’s silent protector. Josiah was blindsided, losing roun
d after round. He never won, only losing slightly or miserably.
Jonathan even added salt to his wounds, saying indifferently, “I was going to let it go and not compete
with you, but you’re just too useless!”
Josiah: “…”
Although Jonathan spoke confidently, Josiah couldn’t help but feel something was off.
Estelle, though not proficient in the game, couldn’t help but notice Jonathan’s silent help. She glanced
at him, her eyes were full of smile.
This smile caught Jonathan off guard and secretly stirred his heart.
When Charlie came over, Josiah had already lost miserably. He complained to Charlie, “Bro, Jonathan’
s bullying me!”
Charlie looked at the huge pile of chips in front of Estelle and laughed, “You asked for it, a bet’s a bet!”
Estelle felt a bit embarrassed, “Charlie, you take my place, I have something to do and need to go out f
or a bit!”
Charlie glanced at Jonathan and smiled faintly, “Sure, you go do your thing, I’ll play with them!”
