Kyle glanced at Katherine and pouted, “I knew you would think this way, so I didn’t know how to talk
this with you.”
Katherine laughed, “I’m just staying on-topic. I really don’t see anything wrong in her.”
Those law enforcement officials were constantly dealing with serious matters and got to be tough, so
there was no way that they would stand Kyle’s willful attitude.
Kyle can be a
Kyle let out a low humph, “But I was just upset. I’ve never been treated this way. I just felt like that she
was targeting at me. I was unable to fight back before, but now things had changed, so I would
definitely make her life miserable.”
Katherine replied with resignation, “Well, take it easy. You can let off a little steam but don’t go too far
with it.”
‘Well, there isn’t a thing in my life that I can’t handle.’ Kyle pursed his lips and thought inside.
He then nodded, “Rest assured. I have nothing to be afraid of. I can settle everything.”
Katherine turned to Kyle and knew that she wouldn’t be able to talk into him, so she just remained
silent.
Though Mitchell wasn’t a police officer any more, she didn’t seem like the kind of girl that would be just
pushed around, so Kyle wouldn’t necessarily get an upper hand.
As the mahjong machine was ready, they started playing.
The waiter who was playing with them was pretty familiar with Kyle and Katherine at this point, so he
asked why that Katherine wasn’t at the club often recently.
Katherine didn’t exactly announce her pregnancy to all the people, so she just smiled with a lingering
tone, “Well, I’m swamped these days and got a pretty full schedule.”
Kyle sneered, “Right, you just forgot all your friends now that you got your man around. Well, speaking
of this, Hector is coming back soon. Do you know that?”
Katherine pursed her lips, “I don’t know. Did her call you? When is he coming back?”
Kyle nodded, “He should be back in a few days. Well, he is losing his edge recently and my sister said
that he was probably under a lot of pressure recently and just gave him a few days off to unwind, so
that he can be more vigorous to compete for the champion.”
Kyle didn’t really know Frances and she was his senior, so he was a bit uneasy at first.
But mahjong was really a great activity to nurture relationships, the atmosphere in the room just got
much lively in a while.
While stacking the tiles, Kyle said to Frances, “Mrs. Grant, you’d better watch out. I have a ready hand
right now.”
Frances didn’t seem to worry at all and replied calmly, “I’ve been winning all this time because of you.
You should be the one to be careful.”
Kyle chuckled, “Well, I don’t really know that you are such a good player. You got to come here more in
the future. You are a great match.”
Katherine got speechless, “Stop the nonsense. Don’t act like that you are good at this. All those people
you are playing with are just pretending to let you win, because you would make a big fuss if you lose.
It has nothing to do with your skills. Believe me. I’m telling you the truth.”
The waiter giggled, “Miss Jordan, don’t make it too obvious.”
Kyle paused and immediately widened his eyes, “Well, I got to show you what I can do today then.
Don’t dare you to leave this door if you can’t beat me today.”
Katherine and Frances looked at each other and were both amused.
It turned out that Kyle stank at playing mahjong and soon lost all his chips.
Katherine chortled, “Well, Kyle, would you be traumatized because of this? Well, we can manage to let
you win.”
Face darkened, Kyle answered, “That is unnecessary. Just let me see what you all got there.”
At the very next second, his phone started ringing.
Kyle got a bit impatient and picked up the phone.
Then the person on the other end of the phone told Kyle something and he just paused.
Eyebrows knitted, he asked, “Really? It can’t be. Did you get it right?”
Kyle licked his lips when he heard the caller’s reply and seemed to be undisturbed.
In the end, he said, “Okay, I got it. Text me the address and I would come over when I got the time.”
He then just hung up the phone.
Katherine said to Kyle, “What happened? Is something wrong?”
“Nope.” Kyle smiled and waved his hand, “Nothing is more important than playing mahjong right now.”
But he obviously started zoning out.
He was already losing and was out of sorts at the latter stage.
Katherine looked at Kyle, “Kyle, just go to deal with what you are worrying about. I won’t believe that
there is nothing no your mind right now.”
Kyle answered, “Well, nothing biggie. It’s just that someone got into an accident and is in the hospital
now. I’m just wondering what happened.”
Katherine froze, “In the hospital? Well, it’s huge. You’d better check it out if you are worried. You don’t
have to entertain us here. We can also have a good time here without you.”
Kyle then cracked a smile, “I’m not worried. We’re not even friends. I’m just surprised.”
Katherine pondered for a while and pushed the tiles away, “Well, you’d better go there and see what is
going on. You’ve been losing all this time. We really got bored and don’t want to play anymore.”
Frances also chimed in, “Right, you can only be rest assured when you see what is going on yourself.”
Kyle grinned, “It’s really unnecessary. I really don’t care about it at all.”
Katherine leaned against the chair and said, “I don’t want to continue playing anyway. You such at this
you know and haven’t improved a bit all this time.”
Kyle glanced at her and didn’t say anything.
Since they were not playing, the waiter just left and got busy.
While they were chatting in the room, Kyle’s phone rang again.
He checked the phone impatiently and picked it up, “What’s wrong now?”
He frowned when the caller said something, “How come?”
He then stood up automatically, “Fine, where are you? I’d like to see which son of a bitch is bold
enough to pull this shit.”
Then he hung up the phone and said to Katherine, “Kathy, I got to be somewhere and really have to
deal with something. Have fun here.”
Katherine nodded, “Sure, we’re okay. Take your time.”
Kyle replied okay and just went out with big gold chain swinging under his neck.
