Chapter 96 Whirlpool of Tenderness

"Darling, you're so good at shuffling cards. Do you often shuffle for others?" Vera looked at Patrick's skillful hands with envy.

Shawn snorted arrogantly. "When he goes out to play cards, who dares to let him shuffle?"

Vera's eyes were glued to Patrick's hands.

To let Vera watch a bit more, Patrick shuffled the already shuffled cards once again.

"Darling, can you teach me? You look so cool shuffling cards," Vera said.

"Where do I look cool?" Patrick asked.

Vera looked at Patrick's face. "Everywhere. Can you teach me?"

Patrick beckoned Vera over. "Come sit here; I'll teach you step by step."

"Stop! Are you here to accompany me or to date?" Shawn couldn't contain his anger. He wasn't worried about the newlyweds' relationship, but now he had a bigger headache. "Aren't you here to play Texas Hold 'em with me? If you want to keep shuffling, go back home and discuss it behind closed doors. Don't annoy me by flirting in front of me!"

Vera got scolded, feeling guilty; she stuck out her tongue and said, "Shawn, we were wrong."

Shawn snorted, feeling like checking his blood pressure again.

Patrick placed the cards on the bed. "Shawn, you start the game."

Shawn took a look, it was about to begin. He better not get angry and just play.
