Chapter 17 Preston patted her hand and tried to comfort her, "Khloe, you know Roman. He didn't mean it." Khloe was unwilling to let Roman off easily. Although she used to be a top escort in Nightshade, she didn't want to hear the word "selling" again now that she was with Preston. She couldn't argue with Roman, but she could deal with his woman. "Let's forget about it. We're here just to have fun." "But sitting here is boring. Why don't we play a game?" Hearing the word "game," everyone became interested. "What game?" Khloe took out a few decks of cards and placed them on the table. "Let's play a team card game. The losing team must take off one piece of clothing." "Interesting." Roman was thrilled with the idea, and he agreed right away. And the other men would not resist the temptation either. Chapter 17 Concerned that Griffon might not be used to such activities, 2/3 Preston turned his head and glanced at him. "Griffon, they often play like this. If you don't want to…" Before he could finish his sentence, Griffon took a card from Khloe. "How do we play?" Preston was shocked. His cousin had always avoided such places, yet today, just because Roman invited him to meet a woman who looked like Tara, he had agreed to come and was now patiently playing games with them. That was odd. Khloe didn't expect Griffon, who was rumored to be uninterested in women, to be so easygoing and willing to play with them. She immediately smiled. "It's very simple. Let me explain the rules to you." After explaining the rules, Khloe gathered everyone to draw lots and form teams. *** I sat stiffly on the sofa, not sure what to do. Just as I was hesitating about how to refuse, Khloe seemed to read my mind and spoke up first. "Everyone has to participate. Ms. Palmer, you're not going to turn me down in front of everybody, right?" Chapter 17 3/3 All eyes turned to me, making me feel uncomfortable. As if not playing would ruin the fun for everybody. I couldn't afford to offend anyone here, so I forced myself to participate. Seeing that I was willing to comply, Khloe didn't say anything more.
