The man opposite Timothy asked him if their game was still up for another round after he received the money.
Seemingly delirious, Timothy vehemently replied, "Of course! Let's do another ten more games. I'm not satisfied until I win more games than you!"
At that moment, someone else noted Tanya and her company entering the billiards hall. "Hey, we’ve got a few angels coming this way!" One of the men standing beside the billiards table could not hide his grin.
Timothy instantly turned to see Tanya and the rest, and he murmured, "Tanya? Why is she here? She walks around with this bodyguard all day long, too. Tch! The old master and the rest think that this guy is, a t the very least, a King of War. Less to be known, he's admitted that he's only a head commander with no token. I really don’t understand why they pay him such a high salary as a bodyguard!"
The man playing billiard beside Timothy was a young master from a third-class aristocratic family. His name was Leo Turner and was great friends with Michael Wilson. He could not help but smile when h e heard this and went right next to Timothy. "Young Master Drake, there's a simple solution. He's just a bodyguard, and we only need to think of a way to play him. Ask him for a game with me, and see how I can punish him!”
Timothy chuckled and replied, "It’d be great if you could do that!" “Hey, isn't this Miss Tanya? Oh, and Miss Sharon is also here? That’s quite rare!" Leo immediately moved forward to greet Tanya and the group when he saw them coming i n.
Tanya did not respond to him kindly as she eyed him icily. "So you're the one who's been bringing my brother to fool around?" she sneered.
"What are you talking about. Miss Tanya? What do you mean by fooling around?" Leo looked at the three beautiful women in front of him with a smile on his face, and h e discreetly swallowed his saliva. These three ladies were the object of obsession for many rich young masters at the moment. People would surely envy him if h e managed to marry one of them.
This went especially for Miss Tanya and Miss Sharon; they had high ranks after all. I f he managed to marry them, he would be marrying above his status.
Although Yvonne was only Tanya's cousin, her figure was even sexier. This alone was enough to cause men go crazy over her.
"Hah! You guys aren’t working, and that's fooling around in my book!" Unbothered to even entertain the man, she turned to Timothy and asserted, "You should avoid going to shady places with these people. It's fine to play some billiards games, but don’t gamble with others if you can't contest. I heard that you've lost quite some money recently."
Timothy smiled coldly when he heard this. "Oh my, Tanya. You're meddling things that aren't of your concern. I know Father pampers you and that you're well received by the people of the Drake family. Now that your power grows, you want to control your big brother's affairs?"
It was plain to see Timothy resented Tanya for being favored by James, their father. He had changed after being with the young master of the third-class aristocratic family -Leo Turner-for a long time.
"Timothy, what are you talking about?
You're my brother. How can I not butt in now that you're fooling around with these people and have been gambling more and more on billiards? I'm only reminding you o f better things. Don't you know that trifling destroys the will?" Tanya was seething. She felt that the brother before her had changed into another person in just a month's time.
Unable to hold back her frustration, she snapped, "Don't think that I don’t know anything. You constantly visit those so-called entertainment places, and they're unorthodox ones with these kinds of people. My friends saw this with their own eyes and told me this. They've seen you there more than once! I'll tell Father if you continue down this road!"
"Haha! Are you threatening me?" Timothy chuckled mockingly. "Which rich person now doesn't like to play? Also, how dare you say that it’s an unorthodox place? I went for massages at regular places. Don't throw accusations blindly without providing concrete proof!"
