Just as Natasha was learning how to play, Denise called.

Natasha turned on speaker mode.

“Why aren’t you back yet, Nat? It’s getting late,” Denise asked.

“I forgot to tell you all to not wait for me for dinner. I still have something to take care of, so I’ll be returning late.”

“Where are you?”

“Hamilton Corporation,” Natasha replied without thinking because she was learning how to play poker.

Denise became silent for a short moment before speaking again. “Okay, Nat. I hope it goes well for you.”

“All right.”

After the call ended, Ross stared at Natasha. “Your little sister is quite cute.”

Natasha didn’t bother to correct him because he wasn’t the only person who misunderstood their relationship. After all, who wouldn’t if her children kept on calling her Nat?

“Royal flush,” Natasha uttered as she put down her cards. The three men were shocked.

Even though she didn’t know how to play before, she sure did learn quickly.

She absolutely dunked on them right after learning the rules.

Ross gazed at her. “You’re telling me you don’t know how to play, Ms. Watson? Are you lying to us?”

“This is my first time playing,” Natasha answered sincerely.

He was at a loss for words.

Thomas sighed. “Thank goodness we didn’t bet money. Otherwise, my wallet’s getting empty in no time.”

Xavier patted his wallet and sighed in relief.

“Again.” Ross didn’t believe she was that good.

Just as they were starting another round, the deputy general manager finally arrived.

He was going to assert his dominance over them, just as Thea advised. However, he didn’t expect to see them playing poker. “You lot—”

Natasha returned the cards to Ross and stared at the deputy general manager. “Ah, you’re finally here. We were about to head for supper if you hadn’t arrived.”

“What is this attitude?” the deputy general manager asked displeasedly.
