Rose had no idea that Katie hated her. She worked as a dealer on the third floor, while Caesar in his office with the contracts and the paperwork.
He looked up at the monitors from time to time. He liked this kind of feeling. As long as he wanted, he could see Rose.
It was nine o'clock in the evening. Caesar handed over the papers to his bodyguard and went to the third floor.
Rose wasn't off the clock yet, but Caesar took her. Her customers were all stunned.
So, the dealer left her customers behind? Rose apologized to them as she walked. Then, she stared at Caesar. "Caesar, I'm working for you!"
"It's okay. I have money to burn."
Only he could be so confident. Rose sighed. "No wonder people hate capitalists."
"My money is also yours, so you're a capitalist, too. Baby, let's go home now."
"Fine."
Before Caesar met Rose, he spent most of his time in his office. He even spent the night at the casino.
But now, for Rose, he worked and rested according to schedule. It was 11:00 at night and they were lying on the bed.
"Good night, baby. Have a good dream." Caesar habitually kissed her forehead.
"Good night." Rose snuggled up in his arms and fell asleep.
The next morning, Caesar was booking restaurant. "Shall we go for seafood tonight?"
He always had infinite patience for Rose. He would not make any arbitrary decisions.
"Wow, how do you know I like seafood?" Rose mumbled while brushing her teeth.
Caesar was speechless, "I'll be your husband. Of course I know everything about you."
"Did I agree to marry you? Don't flatter yourself."
Rose wiped off the foam on her mouth. She wasn't wearing any make-up, but she looked adorable.
Caesar took her into his arms and kissed her lips. "Minty?"
"Yeah. Shall we get the fruity ones next time?" Rose hooked her arms around his neck. She was used to being close to him.
"It's up to you, baby."
Just like a newly- married couple, they ate breakfast and went shopping together. Caesar liked to walk to her left.
She didn't look around when she walked, and he didn't want her in any danger.
He would even take her hand on the street. Her hands grew cold as the weather cooled, and he warmed them with himself.
In the afternoon, Rose received a call from Talia, who had also helped her a lot.
"Talia, what's the matter?"
"Nothing. I just want to know how you're doing in the casino."
Rose told her the truth. "Katie's really nice. She has taught me a lot."
"Well, that sounds great. But I need to remind you one thing. Katie hated being surpassed. You better not be outperforming her, or..."
Rose didn't think it was a big deal. She said casually, "Don't worry, Talia. Katie has always been the top performer. She works the longest hours. How can I possibly outperform her?"
