Love Crisis

"Wow! It has been a long time since I heard your voice,"

said Shawn, not minding her attitude, "And you're still the same cold-hearted girl I used to know." He laid back on a hammock strung between two large maple trees.

"Get to the point please. Don't waste my time!" Yuri's voice was getting colder by the moment.

Much to her surprise, however, Shawn didn't freak out as he always did before. If anything, he sounded eerily friendly. "Just tell me where you are right now!"

Although Yuri was surprised at Shawn's reaction, she didn't want to talk to him right at this moment. She was having a quiet moment to herself by the sea, waves slapping over her feet again and again, while the sun sank over the horizon. Never did she imagine that she would one day enjoy such a peaceful time on a beach.

"I'm in Green Island now," Yuri replied briskly. She had dropped all the comings and goings between them. They were too familiar to each other and all the people regarded them as quarrelsome lovers. But now, she could finally shrug off all these thoughts. She thought she would live and die in a battlefield until the very end, but now that she had made it this far, she felt contented.

Immediately, the eyes of every player who had made a tiny fortune betting on the woman lit up like fireworks.

The woman fixated her eyes on the new dealer with a confident smile. Even her eyes had an arrogant tint to them. "Deal!" she shouted without any hesitation. However, the next moment, she added, "It's a pity that the capacity of this table is not enough..."

"As long as your chips allow, all the VIP tables are now yours, Miss." Shane paused and then added, shooting a glance at the chips piled up in front of her, "I'm afraid that you'll need to work a little harder."

The VIP tables required five million minimum, and the woman only had around two million right now. Business was business, and there were no exceptions to the rules.
