Chapter 502

William, who had finished playing, stepped back happily with one hand on the golf club and a smile on his face.

Christina nodded politely. She picked up a golf club at the side and touched it. Then, she stood in front of William and narrowed her beautiful eyes. She aimed at a hole and was very serious. Christina’s movements were very standard and impeccable.

Her coordinated movements were very standard. It was obvious that she did professional movements.

The moment she swung, one could clearly see how soft her waist was. Joseph glanced at her movements and saw that she quietly used less strength. As expected, the ball did not go into the hole. It was only a little away from the hole.

Joseph smiled and sized up the woman again with a special gaze. She pretended to fail silently. She had learned the set of skills in the negotiating arena very well. !

At this moment, Joseph could already imagine how Christina usually negotiated with clients. He could basically imagine the

scene.

William laughed out loud. Christina put away her golf club, indicating that her skills were inferior. “William, you’re still the better one. I admit it.”

“I know you’re not doing your best. Come on.”

Joseph’s subtle movements were captured by Grace twice. “Hey William, I think you should have a rest now. Let the young people compéte. Christina, Joseph’s golf skills are not bad either. You can compete with him. William’s body is not as strong as yours. He is old.”

Afraid that Christina would feel awkward, Frank jeered, “Christina, why don’t you have a match? I want to bet.”

Christina felt that she was forced to be on a blind date. It was as if everyone had unknowingly paired her up with Joseph. As if they were saying to them, “Try to be together.”

She dodged the family’s urging to get married but was forced by them in this place. Christina smiled in her heart and thought, “It is true that I couldn’t escape. No wonder Joseph said it is indirect, and indeed it is indirect.”

She didn’t have any evidence at all when a group of elders urged her to get married. She could only feel their good intentions.

There was also Frank who was very excited. Previously, she did not realize that this man was so enthusiastic about gossiping. He was engaged and had changed his personality!

However, Christina would not disappoint them. She was still generous. She smiled and said, “Alright, Frank, how much will you bet? Then I would know what to do next. Joseph, why don’t we cooperate again?”

Joseph sneered. Christina was very smart. If one side bet a lot and won, Frank would be lost badly. Christina was prepared to cheat openly and even said it.

As soon as she said this, everyone laughed, especially William. He praised her directly, “Mr. Yamin is so lucky. Christina, I think you will win. Joseph, do you have any objections?”

Joseph smiled and rolled up the sleeves of his sweater. His arms were exposed in the air. “William, thank you. As long as everyone is happy.”

Christina glanced at Joseph from the corner of her eye. Once again, she thought Joseph was handsome. He was indeed handsome. It was not in vain that she had boldly chosen him as her cooperation partner. It was just that the price was a little expensive. She would get what she paid for. If he was extremely ugly, Angie would not believe it.

Ava was conflicted about who to bet on. If she bet on Christina, would she gain a favorable impression? Joseph probably wouldn’t care.

Frank said, “A small bet is good for the mood, but a big bet is bad for the body. Our family never gambles. Christina, you are quite capable. The first time I became a banker was when I set up a little casino for you.”

Christina smiled charmingly. She was not touched at all. It was not that she could not tell what Frank meant. “Then I’m -honored.”

Ava was afraid that Christina would be disgusted, so she did not touch her. She just stood beside Frank and said, “Frank, how much?”

“The starting price is 200 dollars, the upper limit is 1000 dollars, no more.”

Frank set the price.

“Then I’ll bet on Christina. 1000 dollars. I’m going to abandon Joseph, sorry.”

This personality was a little playful and cute. Frank liked this kind of cute girl, which was beyond Christina’s expectations. However, Frank had good taste.

Christina also liked this style of girl. It looked comfortable, and youthful, and had clear eyes. It was very comfortable to get

along with, unlike the girls in Lithern Club who were all scheming. When they got along, they first had to consider the other party’s motive.

In the end, Emma, Daniel, and Grace bet Joseph would win. Each bet was 1000 dollars. Ava and William bet Christina would win. Each bet was 1000 dollars.

The match began. Both parties had set the rules. Lady first. Joseph gentlemanly extended his hand to let Christina go first. Christina didn’t refuse. It didn’t matter who went first. Everyone went once.

Looking at Ava’s expectant and encouraging gaze, Christina wanted to laugh. She felt that Joseph had been abandoned and smiled helplessly. Then, she picked up the golf club and started to be serious. She didn’t want to disappoint this little girl. If she tried her best and lost, she would be able to live up to others and herself. She would not regret it.

The first ball, Christina, perfectly let the ball fall into the hole, while the ball of Joseph lingered around the hole, unable to enter no matter what. In the end, it lingered, at the entrance of the hole.

Christina won. Continue the game and set the rules. Best of three. The second ball, Christina lost. She used too much estrength and the ball was a little away from the hole. It missed the opportunity to enter the hole perfectly.

Joseph made a handsome swing and effortlessly allowed the ball to enter the hole accurately. He smiled politely and said, “Thank you for letting me win.”

Christina thought, “Why do you say this to me?”

“It’s normal for there to be wins and losses in a competition. If I keep winning, I might be suspected of the authenticity of the competition.”

Joseph said, “What a very reasonable opinion. Ms. Yamin, you can see through it.”

At this moment, the way the man in front of her spoke made Christina squint her eyes. He didn’t look like a teacher but like a CEO, like Trevon.

Christina sized him up directly, and Joseph naturally noticed it too. His originally straight-back instantly relaxed, and he Tied and explained, “I used to work part-time at the golf course.”

Ava thought, “What did I hear? Joseph worked part-time at the golf course?”

Emma lowered her head and naturally picked up soda water. She opened the lid and took a sip without batting an eyelid. Joseph did not tell anyone his true identity at all. Emma did not know what he was hiding.

Daniel subconsciously shook his head, while William smiled. His gaze turned to the two people playing golf. Just as he was about to speak, he was stopped by Grace’s gaze.

Grace was afraid that William would expose Joseph out of excitement. Joseph did not tell his identity to Christina. In addition, not many people in Athana knew that Frank was engaged. The Roberts family had never openly discussed this matter. It was normal that Christina did not know.

Besides, Christina had a bottom line. If it wasn’t a collaborator’s business, she wouldn’t pry or investigate. This was a form of courtesy. However, it was also difficult for Christina to investigate Joseph. As long as it wasn’t something Joseph wanted her to know, she could basically only investigate a little.

Back then, when Frank helped Trevon investigate, he had spent a lot of effort investigating that bit of information. Unfortunately, Trevon only injured the Turner family’s bodyguards to lure them out so that they could investigate carefully. Otherwise, Trevon would not have done it so many times. It was enough to show that the Turner family’s sphere of influence in Sapphire City was very wide, and it was the kind that was hidden.

Frank urged, “Quickly. There’s still one more round. Let’s eat after the game.” His little girl had just eaten a little breakfast in the morning, so she should be hungry.

At this moment, the score was one-to-one. The final ball would determine the winner. The lady was still the first. Christina held the golf club and looked serious. Her eyes were focused on the hole in the distance. Her eyes narrowed into a line as she glanced at it.

In the next second, with a perfect posture, the ball flew into the air and accurately rolled into the hole, Because of her emotions, Christina was as happy as a child. She clenched one hand into a fist and muttered, “Wow.”

William praised, “Christina, this ball is great. No wonder Mr. Yamin praised your skills.”

Perhaps because the person playing today was not a client of the company, Christina let down her guard and became herself. Realizing her childish behavior, she said awkwardly, “William, you flatter me.”

Joseph glanced in the direction where the hole deviated from. He swung the ball. The ball missed the hole perfectly and fell to the edge of the hole. It circled around again but could not enter. It was a pity. Joseph also looked regretful. “Almost.”

His actions, attitude, and posture did not look like he was cheating at all. Instead, he looked like he was trying his best, so Christina could not tell that he was cheating. Even she, who was considered a professional, could not tell. Then Joseph should not have cheated. She comforted, “Maybe I was just a little lucky.”

Joseph thought, “You’re quite good at talking. You didn’t make me speechless.”

“Next time, Ms. Yamin, I’ll learn from you when I have the chance. Part-timers can’t compare to professionals. I still need to practice.”

He invited her, Christina couldn’t refuse. She was a straightforward person and wasn’t pretentious. “Sure, v there’s a chance. Then William…”

we’ll play it again if

Ava hurriedly went to the table to count the cards and interrupted Christina. There was only one set of cards at the scene. Frank used the cards as a mark. “Frank, did I win? How much can I take?”

The little girl was overjoyed! Frank knew that she didn’t know anything about gambling, nor did she know the tricks of it. She didn’t even know how much it was. Hence, he simply gave her everything she had and added a little. He smiled faintly and played the cards smoothly. “10,000 dollars.”

Ava stood there in a daze. She used the arithmetic skills and stretched out her hands. She said in surprise, “Tenfold. No wonder so many people like to gamble. Isn’t this a gamble to turn a poor person into a rich person? The temptation is indeed huge.”

Then, Ava hugged Christina happily. “Christina, you’re amazing. Your posture when you play golf is so cool.”

Not only was the pretty woman good-looking, but she was also very polite and knew how to play golf. She wondered if she knew many things like Christina.

Other than Stella, this was the second girl who came up and hugged her. Christina did not refuse and did not seem to be disgusted. She patted Ava’s back and replied with a smile, “My luck is a little better than Joseph’s.”

Christina wasn’t as straightforward today. She didn’t make others speechless. She was very tactful.

Frank had already heard Christina’s words just now. She wanted to leave. He teased, “Christina, aren’t you going to celebrate after winning the game?”

Christina thought, “Isn’t the biggest winner your fiancée?”

Frank could tell that Ava liked Christina very much. Ava liked someone who was cool. Since Ava liked her, he would help her let Christina stay here.

Joseph, who had always been generous and appropriate, actually did not object. He only pursed his lips and smiled faintly without saying anything, as if he was agreeing with him.
