From Sneers to Cheers: Anthea’s Ascent

Chapter 272

He had been in the game for years, never taking a fall.

It was no different this time. He wouldn’t lose to some chick!

Since she liked sticking her nose where it didn’t belong, she couldn’t blame him for what was coming!

Anthea was totally trapped. There was no way out.

She didn’t show a hint of fear on her face. Instead, a faint smile played at the corners of her mouth.

The man in black frowned.

Why wasn’t Anthea moving?
