Chapter 60
Love After Divorce by BELLA
Chapter 60:.
James was the first to look at Stella and suggest, âWhy donât you ask your secretary to play a few rounds with us?
Besides, thereâs no one else here!â. Everyone shared the same idea, so naturally they joined in. âThatâs right! Mr. Kingston, why donât you ask your secretary to join us to play a few rounds?â.
Stella felt embarrassed. She waved her hand and said, âI donât know how to play...â.
She didnât really know how to play. Stella had always been a good student since she was a child. When she was with the Richard family, she sometimes found it difficult to pay tuition. How could she afford to waste money on this kind of entertainment?
Since he was young, besides studying, he had never considered that kind of entertainment. Moreover, when she was with the Richard family, Tristan never allowed her to play cards. Over time, Stella became a diligent student.
When she was in college, Stella married RK. After she married him, she kept dating him for the sake of her tuition. Thus, Stella had no time or desire to have fun. Thinking about it, Stella suddenly realized that her whole life seemed to be controlled by money....
She said, âIt doesnât matter! Just play a few rounds.â
âYes, yes, you only have to play a few rounds! Even if you lose, at most youâll have to pay tuition.â
Those words made Stella feel uncomfortable. After those people said it out loud, she didnât know why, but they seemed to have changed a lot. What tuition fees? She feared it wasnât as simple as that. If she had to pay her losses, she feared she would probably lose all her money!
Especially when she saw those big tokens just now. Although Stella couldnât understand them, she saw the pile of chips and the speed at which they were being exchanged for checks....
Stella feared she would lose her entire fortune if she played with them. Just as she was about to wave her hands to refuse again, RK opened his thin lips and said, âGo ahead! If you lose, Iâll pay for you.â
âUgh...â
As soon as RK finished speaking, everyone in the private room looked at them curiously.

Stella was speechless. This time, it had already been said. She had no choice. If she still didnât play the cards now, it would look like she was being too secretive.
With no choice, Stella had to sit in Kevinâs seat and take his cards. She really didnât know how to play. She tugged at the manâs jacket sleeve in embarrassment and whispered, âBut I really donât know how to play...â. RK lowered his eyes.
He looked at the womanâs hand holding his sleeve. After a while, he looked up and said, âOkay! Iâll teach you.â
So, in public, the man taught her carefully! She had thought that her boss was not very patient. Stella estimated that with her low IQ, she would not be able to understand things in such a short time and that she would be criticized by this man many times.
After all, when she was at the company, all the employees said she had a very bad temper and no patience at all. Besides, they were not allowed to ask the same question twice!
However, with its...
Since there were too many cards, it was not easy for Stella to memorize them all in such a short time. Therefore, she would at least ask twice about the same card.
Regardless, this man was different from what she had heard about him in the company. On the other hand, he was very patient!
Every time she asked, he answered patiently. Everyone in the private room was stunned. They all looked at him in amazement.
âHey! Heâs not the Mr. Kingston we know, is he, heâs so gentle with the girls!â
James was the first to tease him, âI canât help but remember that our Mr. Kingston didnât seem to have much of a temper! Heâs very different today.â
Suddenly, a sharp, unseen gaze flicked to James. In an instant, he closed his mouth and did not speak.
Ten minutes later, since Stella didnât really know how to play cards, everyone let her get familiar with them first.
Every time it was Stellaâs turn to play, RK helped her and taught her which card to play. It was considered a practice round.
When the practice round was over, everyone started betting on cards! That group of rich young men had spent a lot of money.
Each bet was worth at least six digits. Even if this man was really going to cover her, Stella still had to be very careful with every card she played. If she lost...
Even if this man had said he would pay all his losses, if he really lost too much, wouldnât he deduct it from his future salary? After all, his monthly salary and bonuses were still in this manâs hands.
Without RKâs guidance, Stellaâs forehead was covered with cold sweat and her hands shook every time she played cards. She feared that if she lost, she would lose six digits! Until she played her first card.
Even Stella herself didnât expect her to win. Finally, the cold sweat broke out on the other side. When the second card came out, she won!
Third card... he has won again!
