Chapter 1012
Chloe thought for a moment and decided that it made sense.
She hadn’t had her first draw of the lot yet tonight. No matter how “lucky” she was, her luck should have run out by
now, especially since this was her first time getting the first draw.
“You’re right! I’ll go first.”
“Go ahead, try to leave some chances for the gentlemen behind.”
Chloe pursed her lips lightly, reached out to pick a toothpick, hesitated mid-air for a moment, and finally picked
one, closing her eyes before pulling it out.
Rose couldn’t help but laugh, “You’re so nervous. The odds are so small, you…”

Her words hung in the air as she stared intently at the toothpick in Chloe’s hand, her lips twitching involuntarily.
Everyone else leaned in for a closer look, and a hush fell over the room. Kane whistled, “Whoa, game over, and it
hasn’t even started yet.”
Chloe’s heart sank as she opened her eyes to see the toothpick in her hand, broken in half. She took a deep breath
and tossed the half-toothpick aside.
Game over.
Quite fitting, indeed. If she could draw it on the first try, her “luck” that had lasted all night was more than enough.
“Chloe, with your luck, you should go buy a lottery ticket…”
Chloe lightly brushed her forehead and said reluctantly, “You’re right, I think I should go buy a lottery ticket. If I win
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtthe jackpot, I’ll treat everyone to tons of penny candy.”
“Hahaha looking forward to it!” Rose clapped her hands, “…but for now, you need to go get some penny candy
from next door.”
Chloe let out a long sigh and stood up from the sofa, “I’ll go, but don’t get your hopes up.”

As she stepped out of the room, Chloe instantly noticed Nathan, who was coming towards her, clutching his arm.
Nathan’s handsome face was unscathed. Clearly, Damon had deliberately avoided leaving any marks on his face,
only hitting his body. After all, they were in P City and it was a party tonight, a little dignity was necessary.
“Chloe, where are you going?” Nathan asked, looking pitiful, seemingly unfazed by the beating.
Chloe pinched the part of Nathan’s arm he had been holding, causing him to wince in pain.
“Do you and Damon want to torture me?”
Chloe looked at him. “Do you really need to play drunk? You think your brother can’t see through it?”
Nathan shrugged nonchalantly, “There’s still a one in ten thousand chance, right?”
“Or maybe you think you really need a good beating, so you’re looking for someone to do it?”
“…I must be out of my mind!”
Chloe smiled slightly, “Which private room did the waiter who just met Damon go into?”
“Why?”
“I need to borrow something.”
Nathan pointed to the end of the corridor, “The last one.”
“Okay.”
The soundproofing in the private room was great, knocking on the door was useless. So, the only way was to just
open the door, just like in many romantic dramas, where the clumsy but adorable female lead accidentally entered
someone else’s room, barging in unannounced. Then she discovered that she didn’t recognize anyone or anything
in the room, her face turned pale, and she quickly apologized. Next, either she was bullied by a bunch of jerks, or
she caught the eye of a handsome and possesive billionaire.
Then he said, “Girl, you’ve got my attention,” and the exciting interaction between the possesive billionaire and the
female lead in the romantic drama began.
“Haha…”
Chloe couldn’t help laughing, then shivered involuntarily. Just thinking about it made her skin crawl.
Her luck was really out tonight, the chance of bumping into a billionaire or a handsome guy and getting scared pale
was absolutely impossible.
Taking a deep breath, she pushed the heavy door open.
“Sorry to disturb you…”
And then…
At this moment, Chloe froze in the doorway, her face turning ashen.
Scared? A little.
She felt like she could imagine herself as the female lead in a romantic drama. And the opening was quite…
exciting.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmWho would have thought that a heroine in a romantic drama would accidentally enter someone else’s room, only to
find it filled with an assortment of penny candy, and what was more, two handsome men, each holding a black
gun…
Chloe closed her eyes for two seconds. She had experienced everything in her life. She had been the female lead in
a romantic show. She had barged into someone else’s room, encountered handsome guys, got scared pale, but the
scene she saw was something an ordinary female lead in a romantic drama wouldn’t encounter-
Two men, pointing guns at each other’s most vulnerable, sensitive… abdominal area.
The room was filled with men in black suits, all looking horrified and confused, their legs tightly squeezed together.
As if whoever shot first would instantly roll around in pain.
Now that the door was open, everyone in the room, looked at the doorway. All eyes were on Chloe.
“Who… who are you?!”
Chloe glanced at the man who spoke, “I’m a guest here, I came to borrow two packs of penny candy from you…”
She finished, expressionless, her gaze on the man-holding the gun, the corner of her m outh slightly raised, quietly
moving a few steps backward. “It seems I came at a bad time. I don’t need your help anymore, carry on…”
“Wait, isn’t she that…”
“Bang!” A loud noise.
A gunshot was fired. At the sound, the men in the room instantly bent over, covering their crotches. Looking at the
two men holding guns, they seemed unharmed.
A man next to them was holding the smoking gun, swallowing hard, “I’m sorry, it was an accidental discharge.”
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, followed by a dull “thud” as the door to the room was closed. The woman who
had been standing at the door now gone..
