Rose quickly reached out to shake hands with him. "Hello, I'm Rose Willis."
"Miss Willis, it's your first time here, right?"
"Yes, I'm Katie's student. Nice to meet you."
Archie was a bit surprised. He seldom saw such a polite woman in the casino.
"You don't have to be so polite. Since you're Katie's friend, you can come to me if you have any problems."
"All right."
"The introduction is over. Rose, let's go."
"Okay." Rose left with Katie in a hurry. Archie looked very nice. He was different from the two security men.
Along the way, many people greeted Katie. Katie did not introduce Rose to everyone, so they were all curious about her.
Katie brought Rose to an office. "Gustavo, I brought an intern here. She's my student."
The man had the same name as Rose's previous boss, but he was much scarier. He was in his fifties, and he looked gloomy.
"No training?"
"Don't you trust me?"
"Of course I do. You're the best dealer. Girl, come here. I'll sign you in."
"Rose, you need to go through the formalities. I'll be waiting for you at the lobby on the first floor."
"Okay, I'll come to you later."
After Katie left, Gustavo asked Rose a lot of questions. Rose was so nervous that her forehead was dripping with sweat.
Half an hour later, she walked out of the office with her work card and took a deep breath. It was finally over.
Rose knew very well that she would have to go through a long process of interviewing and training without Katie. She was really grateful to Katie.
She briskly down the lobby, looking around with her curious eyes.
The lobby had the most foot traffic, and the customers there were ordinary.
The casino had five floors. The customers on the top floor were the richest.
All the dealers wanted to go to the top floor, because that was where they got the best tips.
Each dealer took turns working on each floor. It was Katie's turn to work in the lobby.
Looking at all kinds of gambling machines and hearing the different voices from gamblers, Rose had mixed emotions.
This casino was so beautiful and grand, but its prosperity was at the expense of the happiness of countless people. After a long time, Rose finally found Katie. Her table was surrounded by many people.
Seeing her, Katie didn't even change her face, as if Rose were a stranger.
Katie had told Rose the rules. They had to keep a straight face at work, because any expression could give away the cards .
A lot of people made their living gambling, and they would pay special attention to the dealer's face.
At this moment, Rose finally understood what Katie meant by "the casino is a battlefield". Although there were many onlookers, no one dared to speak.
The players were looking intently at their cards. There was obvious tension in the air.
