Justin cast a helpless glance at Alexis," She should prefer to be with you now." "Lettie, if you continue to neglect me, I'll be crying!" Scarlett smiled faintly, "Let's go." They checked into the most fabulous hotel in the country. There was a grand casino inside it. It was convenient for them to have fun there.
When the three entered the casino, it was still early, but there were many people inside.
It was the first tfor them all to cto a casino. Alexis was stunned by the luxurious decoration as soon as she got into the casino.
"Oh my God! Do you think those golden pillars are real gold?" Scarlett couldn't help but laugh at her question, "You can go bite it and see." Alexis shook her head, "There are too many people here. It's inappropriate." Scarlett didn't anticipate Alexis was actually going to bite the pillars. It seemed she had overestimated Alexis.
There were all sorts of ways to make money at a casino. And surely, one may get bankrupt overnight with bad luck.
It was warm inside the casino. When Justin went to exchange the chips, Alexis took her jacket off. Then she tried to pull off Scarlett’s shawl. "Lettie, aren't you hot?" Scarlett stopped her. "I'm fine. | don't feel hot." Alexis pulled her shawl but she didn't pull it off. She looked up and saw Scarlett looking at her with a faint smile.

Soon, Justin returned with the chips. Three hundred thousand dollars hadn't exchanged many chips.
Alexis had learned something about the games at a casino before they came. She wouldn't play complicated games. But she would like to try something simple, like trying her luck with those coin-operated machines.
Justin got the chips. Alexis grabbed Scarlett's hand and tried to take her to a nearby machine. But Scarlett broke free from her grip. "Go with Justin! | want to play over there." Scarlett pointed to a distant card table. People should be playing Baccarat over there. Baccarat was easy. Players held three cards each and bet on whose cards would have the highest number, KQJ and 10 counting as zeros.
The one with the highest number was the winner.
Alexis was not sure. "You're going there alone. Is that okay?" She glanced at the table. Most were guys at the table. Alexis looked at Scarlett's face. Somehow, she felt worried.
Scarlett smiled, "Why not? Have fun." Right after that, she was already heading that way.
A beautiful woman suddenly showed up at the table. Scarlett did look conspicuous there.
But Scarlett kept her composure. She stood there calmly and the others around her quickly withdrew their gaze.
When playing Baccarat, it relied on one's luck. But actually, everything was under the control of the casino.
Having a try at the gwas fun, but it might also cost one dearly.
Scarlett didn't bet much on each game. But when she left the table, she got more chips.
It was essential to be content with what you got at a casino.
After a few games at that table, Scarlett moved on to other games. Although the casino was lively, Scarlett didn't like it much. But she had fun with a few rounds of games.

"Anson, stop there!" In a foreign country, suddenly hearing someone shout in English, Scarlett was struck.
She subconsciously turned to the direction of the voice.
A woman in a red dress was sweeping along not far away. She looked like she was chasing someone.
Soon the woman was gone. Scarlett withdrew her eyes. She put down her glass.
Then she took the chips and went to the German poker table.
She wanted to try something more thrilling. And it was exciting. In just one game, Scarlett's chips doubled.
A Epristan man accosted her in local language. Scarlett smiled at him. When he finished, she answered smilingly, "Sorry, but | don't speak the language very well." The Epristan man seemed to want to say something else, but after looking at Scarlett for a moment, he said, "Sorry." Then he stepped aside.
Scarlett seated herself and placed her first bet.
The dealer sent another round of cards, and Scarlett was spinning a chip in her hand absent-mindedly.
Suddenly, a familiar voice sounded. "What do you say we make a bet? If you lose, stop going after me. If | lose, I'll stay with you all day tomorrow." Scarlett's hand froze as she was spinning the chip. She looked up at the man in the black shirt across the gambling table. After she got a good look at the man's face, she got straight to her feet. But she accidentally hit the chips that had been stacked up in front of her and split them to the floor. The foreign man beside her reminded her, "Hey, you dropped your chips.” The man who suggested a bet earlier probably noticed Scarlett's gaze. He looked up at her.
