Love Began with the First Meeting

He turned her body so she could look at the screen on the wall easily. Molly was confused about what he had said and her eyebrows furrowed.

She still sat on Brian's lap. Her body grew stiff as she stared at the video screen, tensed. Molly got even more rigid when she saw the people inside the VIP room.

On the screen, there was a long table covered with a bright red flannelette cloth. On one side of the table sat Shane, and on the other side… was Rory.

Molly's face turned pale as soon as she saw Rory. She held her breath, her eyes fixed upon him.

"What's for today?" Shane asked, his voice calm and impassive. As the fastest croupier around the world, he also played at the table sometimes.

Rory looked around and took a sip of the wine that a waiter had just put on the table. "A Royal Flush, then," he announced.

Shane shrugged, indicating the croupier to shuffle. The croupier nodded and put on his white gloves. He finished shuffling in a second. "Do you want to cut the cards?" he asked.

Rory took a quick look at the cards in his hands and gestured that he didn't need to. Shane took a chip between his index and middle fingers and threw it onto the cards. After the chip knocked some cards out of the croupier's hands, he signalled for the game to begin. The croupier put the cards into the poker dealer.

The excellent croupier instantly dealt the cards to the players with nimble and elegant moves. A card was put face-down while the other was face-up for each player. "A Spade K. Big. Please place your bets!" the croupier said.

Rory took a look at his hidden card, which was also a K. "A million, just for fun!" he said loudly.

"I follow," Shane said, without looking at his own card. The card put face-up in front of him was a Seven of Hearts.

Shane got a Four. Rory raised the
