NovelFinishChapter 697 Nathalie's transformation and that determined glint in her eyes made Benjamin a bit uneasy.
Cameron leaned in, asking, "So, what's the bet?" Jachuckled, "Ashley, if you lose to Ashley, you'll be left with nothing. What do you have to wager against me?" With a confident stride, Nathalie walked over to Benjamin's table and sat down gracefully. She declared, "My dad wouldn't make a bet with the main house unless he knew he could win. So don't worry, I'm not losing. Nyour stakes-money or life, I'm game." Her fearless, wild spirit was downright captivating.
Cameron, feeling a bit rattled, lit a cigarette, the smoke swirling up and blurring his view. He suddenly found Nathalie harder to read.
"The wager I'm after, I'm worried you won't be willing to part with," Cameron said, almost whispering.

His gaze shifted to Dominick and Ford. "Nathalie, who are these guys?" wel.n Before Nathalie could even start, Dominick, the smooth-talking diplomat, jumped in, "Mr. Dawson, you musthave forgotten. I'm Dominick, former Director of Business at Maple Enterprises. The acquisition of Dawson International, that was all me." Cameron raised an eyebrow, "Oh, right. I thought that was Nathan's doing." With a grin that could cut, Dominick shot back, "Mr. Dawson, you're ung folks. Such a minor thing doesn't need our president's personal touch." He just brushed off the acquisition of Dawson International like it was nothing.
Cameron was both ticked and impressed.
Dominick was no ordinary player.
Even if Nathalie was new to the game, with such strong allies, they couldn't afford to underestimate her.

"Nathalie, and this handsguy who doesn't seem too sharp-who's he?" Benjamin, echoing Cameron's suspicion, eyed Nathalie's crew warily. Ford flashed a goofy grin at Benjamin, really playing up the not-so-smart act.
Dominick had to step in, "He might not look it, but if you match wits with him, you'll feel like a fool in seconds. Thisis Ford, Maple Enterprises' Director of Cyber Security Benjamin nearly choked on his tea.
