Kingsley flashed her a soft smile. "Don't worry. I'm here," he assured, looking at Paige in a different light.
Given her personality, she would have whipped him with her whip a long time ago when she encountered such a frivolous person usually, but right now, the Second Young Lady of the Tanner Family tolerated this harassment forcefully because of a casual promise.
Because of this, Kingsley felt a little moved with a sense of responsibility; the Second Young Lady of the Tanner Family had already tolerated such an insult for him, shouldn't he gain the responsibility of getting her dignity back? This belongs © NôvelDra/ma.Org.
Taking a step forward, he stood in front of Paige and said coldly to the man, "We're here for fun and don't want unnecessary trouble. You better not kill our mood!"
"Fun?" the man repeated, laughing hysterically. "You want to have fun in Sunshine Casino with 1,000 worth of chips? You're giving us stitches in our stomachs!"
When the well-dressed people around them heard that, they gathered over and started criticizing, "What? Did I hear it right? This man is only exchanging 1,000 in chips in Sunshine Casino?"
Someone else chortled. "All kinds of people will show up when the place is huge and popular! Isn't this just an insult to Sunshine Casino's name?"
"Exactly. Since when does Sunshine Casino have such low standards? And
I just applied for a WIP membership card earlier!"
"Allowing someone like this to enter is just an insult to my status."
The people around despised Kingsley, and that man raised his chin even higher. "Lad, this isn't a place a loser like you should come. I think you better get lost and let me accompany this beautiful girl!"
Raising his brows slightly, Kingsley responded calmly, "This isn't a place someone like me should come? Why? Are you people a level above others?"
"That's for sure!" That man hooked his finger arrogantly at Jett. "Come here, Jett. Tell this loser who I am!"
Hearing that, Jett hurriedly bowed slightly and replied with an earnest and respectful tone, "He is Eric Yorkshire, the young master of Sunrise Corporation in Diosna City!" "Did you hear that, loser?" Eric pointed a finger at Kingsley's shoulder. "My father is the chairman of Sunrise Corporation, and I'm a level above you by birth!" As he spoke, he narrowed his eyes and surveyed Paige's figure explicitly. Then, he licked his lips and added, "Pretty lady, you probably only get a few hundred for a night with this chap. Why don't you spend a night with me and I'll give you 10,000? What do you say?"
"What did you say?" Paige's eyebrows shot up and she scoffed loudly, "What do you take me for?"
With a nasty snigger, Eric said, "Why the f*ck are you pretending? Could you be a lady from a well- to-do family when you're at this place with a man?"
"You!”
Mad with fury, Paige’s face was flushing brightly. Unlike Alice who was eloquent, Paige was unable to retaliate at all without the use of force!
The sight of Paige's adorable face as she breathed heavily from anger but still pouted her lips to suppress her fury caused a smirk to emerge on Kingsley's face. Pulling over her by her arm, he
placed his own arm over her delicate shoulders and said to
Eric, "She's my woman. You better watch your words."
After the words left his lips, the mad expression on Paige turned into a look of surprise. His woman... An odd feeling bubbled up in her chest while her fury dissipated unwittingly.
Meanwhile, when Eric saw Paige blushing as she leaned against Kingsley's shoulder, the look on his face turned solemn, and he thought to himself furiously, Damn it! Why is this loser so lucky to land himself such a stunner? It's just a eking waste of good stuff!
The men who were gathered around gushed out in envy and jealousy, "Tsk, tsk. This girl is probably only eighteen, isn't she? Looks like this loser tricked her feelings!"
"Yeah, it's easy to be fooled by a goodlooking face at her age, and she has no idea at all that money is the most important thing in this society!”
Hearing their comments, Eric suddenly realized something in his heart, and a smile filled with contempt appeared on his face.
For the son of a wealthy man like him, it was simply a piece of cake to snatch a woman from a loser. Be it some innocent young girl or a mature woman, there wasn't one he couldn't have as long as the amount of cash was right.
At the thought of this, he stuck a hand in his pocket and said to Paige, "Gorgeous, I'll give you a lesson today and show you what a real man is!" After that, he waved his hand and turned to Jett. "Go and exchange 500,000 in chips for me. I'm going to squander it!"
