This Is My Business Card
Lovell looked stunned. She was right. If she was really good at playing slot machines, why would she
need those coins?
He looked at her, “What do you want if you win?”
Gloria pondered for a moment and then said with a smile, “If I win, you will invite me to dinner, five
times.”
Lovell was confused.
He looked at her with a puzzled face, “You want big meals?”
Gloria smiled, “Yes, I haven‘t eaten. Are you free for dinner?”
At this moment, Lovell had to face the young girl squarely. She was up to something.
“Did you approach me with a purpose?”
Gloria smiled, “I just want you to invite me to dinner. Are you afraid?”
She knew that Lovell wasn‘t afraid of being prodded at all. As expected, his disdainful voice came to
her ears.
“Are you serious? Why would I be afraid?”
Gloria said with a smile, “Good. If I lose, what do you want me to do?”
Lovell narrowed his eyes, “If you lose, you will tell me your purpose.”
Gloria smiled, “Deal.”
It would be the most unwise move if she refused. Lovell knew she had a purpose from the beginning
Moreover, pretending to be too simple would rouse more suspicions. She‘d better agree, so Lovell
wouldn‘t hate her too much.
Then they looked at the screen again.
This time, they had their own bets. Lovell wanted to know her purpose, so he didn‘t say anything for
fear that she would win under his guidance.
However…
After Gloria played five times, Lovell was shocked. He couldn‘t believe it.
He looked at Gloria and said, “How on earth did you do that?”
In fact, such games were tampered with secretly by their owners. It was impossible to win so many
times in a row.
But this girl…
He looked at Gloria suspiciously, “How on earth did you do that?”
“I can tell you if you want to know.”
“Okay.” Lovell was interested.
Gloria couldn‘t help laughing, “If you invite me to dinner, I‘ll tell you a part of it. We‘ll finish it in five
times.”
Lovell was speechless.
This girl was so scheming!
She was so cunning!
Just like his little daughter.
“Okay, when is the dinner tonight?”
“We‘ll eat after you get off work?”
Lovell was speechless.
Although it was a normal time for dinner, he was sure that the girl must know what he did for a living
Lovell looked at her and said calmly, “If you want me to do anything for you, you can tell me directly.
You might not succeed even if you have five meals with me.”
A sad look flashed across Gloria‘s eyes. She smiled, “I know, but I just like you. My father has passed
away. You look like him.”
She did not lie.
Lovell indeed looked like her father.
What she meant was their appearances not characters.
Lovell froze for a moment. The next moment, he whispered, “OK, I‘ll eat with you. I‘ll finish work at
about 5:30. What about you?”
“Well, anytime you feel like it. Here is my business card.”
Then she handed her business card to Lovell.
