"Richie will give up soon and go look for her himself," Brian said, confident that his father would take

care of things.

Eric grinned and went on to ask,"What about Little Molly?"

Brian halted in front of the door and glanced over his shoulder at Eric. His dark eyes rippled and he

maintained a casual voice,"She has you, doesn't she?"

"Are you entrusting her to me?" Eric asked as he left the bar counter. "Aren't you afraid that she might

really become my wife one day?"

"Please ask me this question again when she agrees to become yours." Brian left with a smug smile on

his face.

He thought to himself, 'Molly, don't you want to leave me?

Let's wait and see if you will really be able to leave me even if you have Shirley's help.'

Molly and Shirley stayed at the cafe for quite a long while. It was past dinner time and their table was in

quite a mess. They had ordered too many different ice creams and they had melted before they could

start eating them. The table was now a colorful mess of melted ice creams.

The entrance door to the cafe was pushed open suddenly and Antonio rushed in.

Shirley wasn't surprised at Antonio's arrival, but as she expectantly looked behind Antonio, a dash of

disappointment flashed through her eyes because she couldn't see the man whom she was expecting.

"Mrs. Long, Wing has invited you for dinner," Antonio announced.

"I'm not going!" Shirley refused bluntly. She knew that Wing was hoping to be the mediator. Wing would

surely put in a good word for Richie during dinner. Shirley was aggrieved that Richie hadn't come to get

her himself. She was surely acting a little bit wayward this time, but why did he have to be so serious

with her? Why hadn't he come to coax her?

Antonio was about to say something, but was stopped by Shirley's words. "Little Molly and I have

something to do. I don't have the time now."

Saying that, Shirley waved at the waiter and paid the bill. Then she took Molly's hand and left the cafe.

Molly stayed silent throughout the conversation between them.

Antonio didn't stop them. All he could do was watch them get into a taxi and leave. With a sigh, he

shook his head and left the cafe too.

"Aunt Shirley, where are we going?" Molly asked. She heard Shirley tell the driver to drive around the

streets. Molly's gloominess had been long chased away by Shirley's words at the cafe. She was much

happier now, but still, she was worried that Brian would get even with her when she returned to the

villa.

"Rest assured that I won't let Brian do anything to punish you today," Shirley held Molly's hand and

reassured her. She seemed to have read Molly's mind.

Despite Shirley's comforting words, Molly still felt quite uneasy. But she nodded with a firm look in her

eyes. She realized that it was pointless to worry about the unpredictable things that might or might not

occur in life. She wanted to cherish every happy moment and live every minute to its fullest.

Seeing the decisive look in Molly's eyes, Shirley quickly came up with a great idea. She smiled

wickedly and asked,"I've heard that the Grand Night Casino is an interesting place to have fun. Is that

right?"

"Aunt Shirley, haven't you ever been to a casino before?" asked Molly. She was surprised when Shirley

shook her head.

Shirley drew closer to Molly and whispered,"Let's go to Brian's casino and win his money."

"What?" Molly was baffled. She hesitated for a moment and said,"Aunt Shirley, I don't think that

gambling is..."

Before Molly could finish her sentence, Shirley cut in,"We will just go and have a little fun. It's okay."

With her carefree attitude, Shirley turned to the driver and said,"Please drive us to the Grand Night

Casino."

"But..." Molly was hesitant. She hated gambling. She got involved in Brian's life because her father

owed gambling loan to the usurers. She had been put into such a miserable situation all because of his

gambling.

Moreover, she was already aware of the secret rules of the casinos, even though she had only worked

there for a short time.

And when she thought about that, Molly suddenly remembered that she had been absent from work at

the casino for several days after she had been back to work there for only one day. She felt horrible

about it. It would be embarrassing to go back to the Grand Night Casino because her workmates would

think that it was strange. They would be very curious about her.

Molly was mocking at herself. But she did not want to upset Aunt Shirley, so Molly covered up her

complex emotions and said,"Okay, Aunt Shirley. If that's what you want, then let's go have some fun.

But only very little fun."

"Of course, I know. What else would we do there? We are just going to play some games," Shirley said.

Then she grinned mischievously and asked in a whisper,"Little Molly, how about we win the casino over

and get Brian pissed off?"

Holding in her laughter, Molly said,"Aunt Shirley, that's impossible!"

It was impossible for them to win the Grand Night Casino over even if they were the God of Gamblers,

not to mention that they had no experience in gambling. Shirley had never been to a casino before, and

Molly, though she had worked part-time there, actually knew very little about gambling.

The taxi driver soon drove them to the Grand Night Casino. After they got out of the taxi, Shirley stood

in front of the casino building, contemplating it. The casino was dazzling bright under the dark sky. For

the first time, Shirley finally had the chance to step into one of Brian's 'toys'.

Shirley and Molly stood still in front of the casino for a few minutes, staring at the flashing signboard of

the casino. A lot of complicated emotions rose in Molly's heart. She was the waitress there only a few

days ago, and now, she was there as a customer.

Molly remembered the disdainful look in Eda Mi's eyes earlier that day, which told her clearly that even

if she was dressed in magnificent clothes, her inferiority was still obvious.

"Let's go in!" Shirley held onto Molly's hand and entered the Grand Night Casino. Without their

knowledge, a man was discreetly watching them from the moment they got out of the taxi.

"Young Master, are you going to let Mrs. Long act wildly like this?" Antonio couldn't help but ask.

Devoid of any emotions on his cold and handsome face, Richie Long replied with a hint of sympathy in

his voice,"Do you think that she really is angry with me?"

Antonio was confused by his question.

Richie explained,"She is just feeling sympathetic towards Molly Xia and wants to help her."

Upon hearing Richie's explanation, Antonio somehow understood the situation.

After Shirley entered the casino with Molly, she curiously scanned the hall, excited to try all sorts of

games. Molly looked around the hall too. But when she noticed a person who was betting at a

blackjack table, her face instantly went pale.
