Chapter 507

‘Isn’t he a germaphobe?’ thought Corinne with a frown. She found the whole thing weird but told herself

to focus on the game instead.

“Hurry up and play the cards,” she said out loud.

In the end, she put down her last card on the table and won the final round.

She raised her eyebrow and said, “I look forward to your strip dance, Mister Callen.”

The smile instantly disappeared from Zeke’s face.

“Yeah, Zeke. You’re the one who said you’d put on a strip show for us if you lose. I hope you don’t go

back on your words,” said Jason with an expression that said he was enjoying the situation.

Zeke crossed his arms and scoffed, “Jason, are you or are you not my friend? Why do you look so

happy to see me lose?”

“You have no one but yourself to blame!” said Gerald coldly.

Zeke pretended to be hurt. “You too, Gerald?”

Jason and Gerald continued to make fun of Zeke when suddenly, Corinne heard Jeremy whispering

coldly into her ear. “Lady Luck must be smiling down on you today, Miss Carew.”

Corinne was stunned. She did not turn to look at him.

Instead, she replied in a small voice, “Yes, she must, but I still have to thank you for helping me out.”

“Aren’t you old enough to know that the banker always has the upper hand in a card game? How can

you agree to play with Zeke when you’re not even sure that you can win?”

“I had no choice but to play with him since I didn’t want to be his secretary.”

Jeremy stayed silent for a minute and then he took a sip of another water. “So you’re saying you only

want to be Lucas’ secretary?”

Corinne nodded honestly. “Yes. That’s correct.”

Jeremy did not say anything else. Instead, his hand tightened around the glass, making his knuckles

even more pronounced. In fact, he held on so tightly to the glass that it looked about to shatter into a

million pieces.

Corinne suddenly felt a cold vibe swirling around her, making her subconsciously move away from

Jeremy. That little movement of hers did not escape Jeremy’s vision, and it hurt him to no end to see

her reacting like that.

At that moment, Gerald got up from the table in a bid to drag Zeke-who was trying to escape -to the

dance floor to do his strip dance.

“Come on, Zeke. Don’t be a sore loser. You need to uphold your end of the bargain,” Gerald said in a

jesting tone.

Jason smiled and said, “Corinne, Jeremy. Do you want to join us in the banquet hall to watch. Zeke’s

strip dance?”

Jeremy did not make to get up. Although he said he wanted to watch Zeke’s strip dance a few

moments ago, he was not actually interested in it.

Corinne, however, immediately got up. “Sure thing! Looks like it’s the guests’ lucky day to be able to

witness Zeke’s show.”

“Tsk tsk tsk. You naughty people. I never knew you guys were so interested in my naked body. You

dogs,” said Zeke cheekily.

Everyone was speechless.

The corners of Corinne’s lips twitched a few times. ‘I can’t believe he still has the mood to joke around

like that.’

Gerald pushed Zeke to the middle of the dance floor in the banquet hall. The couples who were

dancing the waltz did not know what was happening, but they all stopped and gave way to Zeke when

they saw him along with Jeremy, Gerald, and Jason standing there.

There was a stubborn emotion on Zeke’s yuppie and handsome face, but that smile looked even

sadder than if he was to cry.
