Chapter 83 King Game
This man seemed like a natural luminary. He was in simple black shirt and trousers, his composed
colors not standing out
amidst the flamboyant attires of the rich young men. Yet, his presence still managed to seize
everyone’s attention.
Almost everyone on the deck enthusiastically came forward to greet him, and naturally, Jane also
abandoned her banal
conversation with Carter and hurriedly approached Byron.
“Byron, is the meeting over?” She asked.
As Byron raised his head, he noticed Carter looking at him, seemingly able to see through everything.
Nevertheless, Byron simply diverted his gaze indifferently.
“Yeah,” he replied.
“Shall we go to the deck chairs over there to have some drinks and chat, or do you want to play golf?”
Jane asked.
She couldn’t quite figure out Byron’s preferences due to his reserved demeanor.
The only thing she was relatively sure about was that he probably wouldn’t be interested in joining
Harry and the others in
their King Game.
At this moment, Cora also appeared on the deck.
Perhaps due to the darkening sky and the cool sea breeze, she had changed out of her red dress and
was now wearing a

alluring figure.
As soon as she appeared, Harry warmly extended an invitation. “Cora, come over and join the game.”
This invitation instantly drew the attention of countless people on the deck to Cora.
Enter title…
The strongest reaction came from Eason.
He was being pulled by Mia to join the game, holding a glass of champagne in his hand.
When he looked up and saw Cora, he spilled the champagne over the place.
His eyes seemed to be fixated on her.
Mia noticed his abnormality but still asked kindly, “Eason, do you want to go back and change your
clothes?”
Despite Eason’s refusal, Mia dragged him away to change.
“I won’t disturb your fun, everyone,” Cora said, aware of Harry’s intentions. She didn’t want to get too
close to him unless
necessary.
“But, Cora, you’ll be bored alone. Since you’re here, let’s play together,” Harry insisted. As he tried to
persuade her, he
stood up to bring her over.
Cora didn’t want any physical contact with him and could only smile and say, “Fine, I’ll join the game.”
This way, Cora also became a part of Harry’s King Game.
On the other side, Jane proposed several leisure activities, but Byron seemed disinterested in all of
them.
Just when she was racking her brain to think of some entertainment that would pique Byron’s interest,
Byron suddenly
said, “Let’s join the game.”
Jane almost thought she had misheard.
Did Byron say he wanted to participate in the game?
Was that a fantasy?
However, when she saw Byron walking toward Harry’s group, she was certain she hadn’t misheard.
She quickly adjusted
her expression and followed after him.
As soon as Byron arrived, the others who had been playing the game were somewhat stunned.
After regaining their senses, some quickly exited the game, giving him a wide space to participate,
while others were busy
fetching drinks for him.
Although they hadn’t become close to him, they knew it was wise to be on good terms with the young
rich tycoon.
On the other hand, Harry casually looked at Byron. “Oh? Byron, are you interested in the game?”
His tone was slightly mocking, as if provoking.
However, others didn’t know that when Harry was interacting with Byron, he discreetly glanced at Cora,
who was sitting
across from Byron.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Any problem?” Byron coldly glanced at him as if silently warning him not to overstep.
Receiving that warning, Harry naturally concealed his gossiping thoughts. “No problem. Let’s begin.”
Harry started dealing cards.
In King Game, the person who drew the King can make any two people do anything just by saying their
cards out loud.
Of course, those who refuse to participate obey the order have to face a penalty, drinking a powerful
cocktail, a mixture of
various alcohols.
In the first round, Harry’s buddy, Jack, drew the King.
He seemed used to this game’s dark and twisted nature, and he immediately called for two people to
kiss.
One of them he chose was Bob, a wealthy young man with a hideous appearance.
The other person he chose happened to be Harry’s female companion.
She resisted. “Mr. Cross, you don’t seriously want me to kiss another man, right?”
But Harry made a heartless remark. “I don’t mind. It’s just a game. Besides, I won’t marry you. You
should know that I
won’t drink for you if you don’t kiss.”
In the end, the girl tearfully kissed Bob under everyone’s urging.
Watching that scene, Cora began to think of excuses to leave after a few rounds. She didn’t want to
kiss random
strangers.
However, in the second round, she was chosen.
“The person with diamond five, please tell me, are you a virgin?”
Cora looked at the card in her hand, and it was indeed the diamond five…
