Chapter 195 The Game Table Test

Finished

The network of interests behind this project was bound to be tangled and complex.

Wyatt raised a brow. “I’ve run into a tough nut. Want to help me crack it?”

Yunice replied, “If you think I can be of use, then I’m in.”

From the driver’s seat, Jordan chuckled as he turned the wheel. “That’s more like it. Ms. Saunders and Wyatt should be on the same team–Wyatt will treat you right.”

Wyatt smiled faintly. “Not convenient.”

“Oh,” the man replied, as if only now remembering Wyatt’s leg. Still, he didn’t back down. He leaned over and made another shot, then added pointedly. “You didn’t check my rules before coming? No one speaks to me unless they beat me at pool”

Yunice could step in. but the guy probably wouldn’t accept that.

Yunice answered with a smile, dodging the question. “I told him I wanted to play pool, and he brought me.”

“Me?” The bunny girl scoffed like Yunice had just said the moon was made of cheese. “You’re not seriously thinking of playing me, are you?”
