Filed To Story: Snatched a Billionaire to be My Husband Book (Cora & Byron)
She couldn’t quite figure out Byron’s preferences due to his reserved demeanor.
The only thing she was relatively sure about was that he probably wouldn’t be interested in joining
Harry and the others in their King Game.
At this moment, Cora also appeared on the deck.
Perhaps due to the darkening sky and the cool sea breeze, she had changed out of her red dress and was now wearing a light blue long-sleeved dress that covered her body more modestly, although still accentuating her alluring figure.
As soon as she appeared, Harry warmly extended an invitation.
“Cora, come over and join the game.”
This invitation instantly drew the attention of countless people on the deck to Cora.
The strongest reaction came from Eason.
He was being pulled by Mia to join the game, holding a glass of champagne in his hand.
When he looked up and saw Cora, he spilled the champagne over the place.
His eyes seemed to be fixated on her.
Mia noticed his abnormality but still asked kindly,
“Eason, do you want to go back and change your clothes?”
Despite Eason’s refusal, Mia dragged him away to change.
“I won’t disturb your fun, everyone,”
Cora said, aware of Harry’s intentions. She didn’t want to get too close to him unless necessary.
“But, Cora, you’ll be bored alone. Since you’re here, let’s play together,”
Harry insisted. As he tried to persuade her, he stood up to bring her over.
Cora didn’t want any physical contact with him and could only smile and say,
“Fine, I’ll join the game.”
This way, Cora also became a part of Harry’s King Game.
On the other side, Jane proposed several leisure activities, but Byron seemed disinterested in all of them.
Just when she was racking her brain to think of some entertainment that would pique Byron’s interest,
Byron suddenly said,
“Let’s join the game.”
Jane almost thought she had misheard.
Did Byron say he wanted to participate in the game?
Was that a fantasy?
However, when she saw Byron walking toward Harry’s group, she was certain she hadn’t misheard.
She quickly adjusted her expression and followed after him.
As soon as Byron arrived, the others who had been playing the game were somewhat stunned.
After regaining their senses, some quickly exited the game, giving him a wide space to participate, while others were busy fetching drinks for him.
Although they hadn’t become close to him, they knew it was wise to be on good terms with the young rich tycoon.
On the other hand, Harry casually looked at Byron.
“Oh? Byron, are you interested in the game?”
His tone was slightly mocking, as if provoking.
However, others didn’t know that when Harry was interacting with Byron, he discreetly glanced at Cora, who was sitting across from Byron.
“Any problem?”
Byron coldly glanced at him as if silently warning him not to overstep.
Receiving that warning, Harry naturally concealed his gossiping thoughts.
“No problem. Let’s begin.”
Harry started dealing cards.
In King Game, the person who drew the King can make any two people do anything just by saying their cards out loud.
Of course, those who refuse to participate obey the order have to face a penalty, drinking a powerful cocktail, a mixture of various alcohols.
In the first round, Harry’s buddy, Jack, drew the King.
He seemed used to this game’s dark and twisted nature, and he immediately called for two people to kiss.
One of them he chose was Bob, a wealthy young man with a hideous appearance.
The other person he chose happened to be Harry’s female companion.
She resisted.
“Mr. Cross, you don’t seriously want me to kiss another man, right?”
But Harry made a heartless remark.
“I don’t mind. It’s just a game. Besides, I won’t marry you. You should know that I won’t drink for you if you don’t kiss.”
In the end, the girl tearfully kissed Bob under everyone’s urging.
Watching that scene, Cora began to think of excuses to leave after a few rounds. She didn’t want to kiss random strangers.
However, in the second round, she was chosen.
“The person with diamond five, please tell me, are you a virgin?”
Cora looked at the card in her hand, and it was indeed the diamond five…
“Five of diamonds?”
“Who has the five of diamonds?”
As nobody came forward voluntarily, the other participants joined in searching for the five diamonds.
The woman sitting next to Cora looked around and quickly spotted the five of diamonds in Cora’s hand.
“It’s Cora. Cora has the five of diamonds.”
Then Cora pushed to the forefront.
“Cora, tell us, are you a virgin?”
Men seemed to be quite enthusiastic about this topic.
Especially with so many playboys around today, they naturally found themselves intrigued by Cora, a stunning beauty.
They had held back before because of the barriers of the Lane family and the Patton family, but now that those obstacles were gone, they all wanted to become her conquests.
If Cora was still intact, just the thought of it invited their excitement.
So, this was the first trap they set specifically for her.
Cora had no idea why she looked around for Byron at that moment. Perhaps it was because he had protected her several times recently, and she had developed a sense of reliance on him.
However, Byron, on the other hand, remained indifferent, drinking his wine as if she didn’t even exist, showing no interest in her whatsoever.
Actually, he knew very well that she lost her virginity to him.
At this moment, Cora bowed her head in dismay.
Perhaps in his eyes, she was no different from a prostitute.
Even if he didn’t love his fianc?e, he had no intention of truly being with her.
So he had no obligation to help her.
She was foolish to think he cared about her even a little, and she relied on him whenever she encountered any issues.
Meanwhile, Jane, who was sitting beside Byron, noticed the gaze Cora directed at him.
But in her understanding, Cora might be afraid that Byron would find out she was not a virgin, no longer intact, which would obstruct her from pursuing Byron.
So, Jane couldn’t help but say directly,
“Dr. Lane, it’s just a game. You just need to give an answer.”
Giving an answer would relieve Byron of any lingering thoughts about her, which would be beneficial for everyone.
Jane started, and others joined in, urging Cora to give an answer.
“Hurry up. Just say it. Don’t waste game time.”
“There’s no need to be so secretive about it. Since you’ve been with Eason for so many years, the answer is obvious.”
Amidst the banter, Cora smiled with some hoarseness in her voice,
“I’m not a virgin.”
From now on, she wouldn’t place her hopes on or rely on others, including the man she lost her virginity to.
Coincidentally, Eason had just changed his clothes and arrived at the deck with Mia.
He heard Cora’s answer and felt his heart shatter into pieces.
He and Cora had not gone all the way. How could she have lost her virginity?
The person who drew the King card asked,
“So, who did you lose your virginity to?”
“This is the second question,”
Cora replied calmly.
