All Her Secrets By Chestnut

Chapter 235 Playing a Game

Branden pulled Catherine’s hand and placed it inside his pocket with the excuse that her hand was too cold.

Triston and the others could not bear to witness the scene any longer. They came here for vacation, not to see someone show off love. Therefore, Triston spoke up fearlessly. “Mr. Duncan, since we have nothing better to do, how about a game?”

They were playing billiards. Catherine and Branden were standing nearby. Their aura was so strong that the players could hardly concentrate on their game. Branden raised his eyebrows.

“Are you sure?”

Triston grinned, knowing that he was literally courting humiliation.

“If Branden is joining the game, how could I have a chance to beat him? I’ll just be completely dominated,” thought he. Just as Triston was hesitating, Loraine appeared again. She walked up to him with a beaming smile on her face.

“Mr. Lambert, since you know you’re no match for Mr. Duncan, why don’t I play with you instead?”

Triston’s heart skipped a beat, and he thought to himself, “Uh oh, this isn’t good.” Even though Loraine was a beauty, Triston couldn’t be tempted easily by good looks. On Loraine’s pretty face, her bright eyes flickered slightly as she put on a charming and alluring smile.

“Mr. Lambert. It looks like you are unwilling to play a game with me. Are you afraid that defeating a girl like me would not be honorable?”

“Defeating Loraine?” said Triston inwardly.

He knew that he might not have the ability to win over Loraine. Everyone knew that Loraine had played billiards since childhood and was once the snooker champion in Casier.

If it were not for her affluent family, she would probably be pursuing a career as a professional and performing on the world’s largest stages at present.

Although Triston played quite well, he couldn’t compare to professional players. Just as he was about to refuse, to his surprise, Loraine beat him to it and spoke up first.

She turned her head and fixed her gaze upon Catherine. Although there was a smile on her face, her eyes were as cold as ice.
