Playful

26. Begins

"grandfather calm down, we'll definitely win" Amora calmed Mr. Xavier who looked panicked. They were in the car to go where the Guivera Family used to go, one of the biggest casinos in town X

"Yes, just calm down. Even if we lose control of the company, we can still seize it in the future" Brian said, sure, only five years before the previous gamble, right? it will not have much impact on them as well, the family's finances must still be stable despite significant reductions in them.

Brian is also a doctor and has his own hospital, so should their needs he can still manage to live like before, and besides Rafael also has his own company even though it is not as big as his father's, "then why do you look panicked like the world wants to doomsday alone" he thought in wonder

"grandfather, why is Grandpa panicking. Should if we lose this time there's no problem, right?" Amora's questions were enthusiastically welcomed by others, as they also wanted to ask the same questions

Xavier looked at Amora who was asking while sighing, "Indeed our family can still live well, but what about the other employees. Moreover, grandfather recruited imperfect employees and Quinn was eager to get rid of them because he considered inappropriate" 

Xavier thought about many of his employees from those at the center as well as those at branch companies with physically imperfect conditions, he and Quinn had different opinions about it.

He argues that if they should be given the opportunity to cover their shortcomings, besides being seen from the shortcomings they have, they are actually hard workers.

But Quinn is different, he wants the company to be as perfect as possible, so he protests when Xavier recruits people he finds unworthy. 

Maybe because of that mindset, many colleagues prefer Xavier who is what he is. If they were facing Quinn, it would feel like they were looking at the arrogant big boss that was in front of them and not a co-worker.

"huft" Amora sighed, but she calmed her grandfather down five minutes later if he returned to his original condition. Amora prayed that Vincent would arrive at the place first and would offer to help his grandfather first.

If Vincent comes, then their gamblers do not need to play. Amora complained, just try to represent her grandfather, surely he will not owe her three troublesome requests. Unfortunately he this time could not bet with it as he realized there were some people who depended on his grandfather in GuQu

"We arrived" Xavier's voice made Amora's daydream scatter, she loved to look at the outside view from the car window, the lights on the side of the road were very beautiful at night.

Amora sighed and got out of her car, she followed her grandfather into the casino and up the stairs. Amora looked around but found Vincent nowhere. Did Mr Frins break his promise? If so, he would be very upset with her.

"haha Xavier, please come in" Mr. Quinn greeted him with open arms, his grandfather only smiling politely as he sat beside the round table in the middle of the room. Seen gambler Mr. Quinn was staring at him, he was wearing a black suit just like their representative

Their gambler sat on the empty seat opposite the man, Xavier and the others sat at another table where snacks were waiting for them

"Alright gentlemen, I will start handing out the cards" the guard dealer said after both sides spoke politely as an opening.

Amora now curses up to the 18th generation of Mr. Frins, even Albert he curses also remember his annoying treatment yesterday

Now the two people sitting at the round table looked focused, in contrast to Mr. Quinn who looked relaxed, his grandfather was very tense to see the two of them, Amora knew it from his grandfather's trembling hands when he was about to pour tea

He himself looked at the two people and then wondered, why did he see the cards that were owned by the two people? He should represent this game. Yes, Amora intends to do that in the next round

The first half they lost, Xavier sighed in disappointment while Mr. Quinn laughed while drinking his champagne. "grandfather, let me represent" Amora whispered into his grandfather's ear and made the old man choke.

"do you know how to play cards?" Ask Xavier. Amora seemed to think and then she shook her head "Don't know, but I want to try" Amora said honestly

"But I can't let you try this time, if you somehow manage to win, Mr. Quinn will be after you out of grudge and grandfather can't follow you around constantly right?" Xavier shook his head, overwhelmed by his grandson's initiative to defend him, but he understood the consequences of that.

Amora nodded in understanding, she had yet to solidify her wings in this world, so she still had to hide herself first. Amora looked disappointedly at the representatives of those who were eating a light meal, each round had a break of 10 minutes.

Amora curses Mr. Frins who reneges on his promise and is disappointed in himself, why does he so easily believe in others? how could he forget the lesson about the trust he had gained in his past life!
