Gabriella and Loretta walked into his office at that instant, smiling to themselves. The two ladies had suddenly become friendly to Ethan’a surprise.“Hey bro, what's up?” Gabriella asked, kissing him on the cheek.She suddenly caught sight of the video by Damian Crown, “Hmm, don't tell me you play poker?”Loretta stared at Ethan, frowning, “Isn't that gambling?”Ethan chuckled, knowing how Loretta felt about gambling.“Yes, I'm thinking of accepting the challenge!” Ethan announced casually.Loretta eyes widened instantly, “Not that I fancy gambling or anything of the sort but isn't Damian Crown the best poker player in all of Cedarwood?”Gabriella raised an eyebrow, “Really?
