Chapter 1353: Chapter 1353: Skye Lawrence is getting married? Chapter 1353: Chapter 1353: Skye Lawrence is getting married? Enna Clark played a few rounds and finally found the trick, no longer losing every time.
However, this Monopoly game is completely dependent on luck, unless you're someone who can control the number of points you roll. Otherwise, it's all about luck.
And to avoid any tricks with the dice, usually, it's the female companion brought by the man who rolls.
For example, Olivia and Adam Sinclair had Olivia playing, Rupert Harris and Emily Goldsmith had Emily playing, and the others also had their female companions participate.
Some companions were obviously just brought out for fun, and they would become particularly nervous during the game, afraid of losing money and displeasing their patron.
However, anyone acquainted with Rupert Harris is usually quite well-off, so even if they lost money and felt slightly unhappy, they wouldn't show it on their face. At most, they might give some advice on how to roll.
As Enna Clark and the others got the hang of it, those responsible for handing out the money and giving tips started to chat leisurely during their downtime.
They probably talked about topics related to finance and current political events.
Enna Clark's entire attention was on the Monopoly game now; she simply wasn't interested in getting distracted by their conversations.
After a round, Olivia reminded her.
“Enna, it's your turn.”
“Okay, right, just a moment.” Enna Clark was fully focused on figuring out which was the best number to roll when she felt someone tugging at her hair. Frowning uncomfortably, she turned around, only to find Baron Lawrence sitting next to her, twirling a lock of her hair around his finger as if it were a toy, playing with it. The tugging sensation came from when she bent over to check the numbers and moved the strand of hair that the man had hooked.
Enna Clark, speechless, was about to pull her hair away.
When she heard someone ask, “Baron, I heard your family is entering into an arranged marriage with the Oscar Family, is that true?”
“Huh?” Baron Lawrence raised his eyebrows indifferently and looked over.
“There's a rumor going around saying that Sister Skye and the Oscar Family's heir have been dating frequently recently. There's news that the two families are heading toward marriage. I'm a bit curious, so I wanted to ask you. Is it true? Is Sister Skye really getting married?”
In his mind, Skye Lawrence was a thorough businesswoman, the perfect successor to Old Master Lawrence's methods.
Elegant, beautiful, and at the same time, serious, hardworking, and formidable.
That often led him to overlook Skye's gender, so when he first heard the rumors, his reaction was disbelief, assuming they were false.
But after thinking it over again, he wasn't so sure.
After all, age-wise, Skye was indeed at a suitable age for marriage.
The Oscar Family was also a decent business choice for an ally, at least for Lawrence Corporation, it was a very beneficial partnership.
Yet, he still had trouble picturing Skye in a marriage.
To be precise, he couldn't imagine what kind of man could handle Skye Lawrence.
It always felt like, besides Baron himself, few men could stand by Skye without being overshadowed.
Enna Clark, hearing Skye's name, was also curious.
Skye Lawrence is getting married?
So sudden?
Why hadn't Old Master mentioned this before?
Baron Lawrence, seemingly not too keen on answering the question, let go of the hair he was twirling, furrowed his brow, and said coldly, “It's just a preliminary observation for now, nothing has been said about marriage yet.”
