Good Girl Gone Bad: Queen Of The Underworld - Chapter 378
“Ah!” Dragon winced after being bitten on the nose! Looking at Seraphina with disbelief eyes as he held his poor nose, Dragon was lost for words. This preposterous surprise attack she launched, Dragon didn’t know how to react! Glaring at Seraphina, he hissed,
“Wife! You could have said you wanted to bite me — I would offer my hand or arm instead, not my nose! Ah, I think it’s bleeding.” He checked the entrance of his nose by his knuckles to see if it was bleeding. Thankfully, it wasn’t, which relieved him a little. Still, he could feel every throb of the little veins on his nose which actually kinda hurts.
“You look cute.” Seraphina slightly smiled with a nod as she compliment the protesting Dragon. Surely, she doesn’t regret what she did to him. Alas, the man in front of her wasn’t pleased by Seraphina’s unremorseful response.
“Oh, darling, now you wanted to kiss me after you bit me?” Still massaging the apex of his narrow, nearly poreless nose, Dragon slightly shook his head indicating that her flirting wouldn’t work this time. He added in a grumble,
“When did you became sadistic? I’m not the m_a_s_o_c_h_i_s_t type of guy.”
“You’re not?”
“I am not!” Dragon sassed in dismay. By the looks of it, why the heck Seraphina seemed like her innocent question sounded real as if she doesn’t really know?
Seraphina gestured him with her index finger to come closer. Of course, after what she just did, Dragon wouldn’t be that clueless of a guy to fall for another scheme she might be cooking behind her amazing mind.
“No! Not gonna happen!”
“No!” Dragon repeated with a stern affirmation. He was never been this disappointed with Seraphina from all her ‘maltreatment’ towards him. He already became a certified house boy but this, he would rather get himself be whipped! After all, he was confident that his body could somehow take it, not his fragile features!
“Alright, I’m sorry. I was gonna kiss it.” Seraphina shrugged in nonchalance as she rests her jaw by the back of her hand.
“I cannot let you bi– what did you say?” Dragon who was about to continue his justification halted midway as he heard her latter statement. He squinted his eyes as he examined Seraphina’s ever indiscernible expression.
“Nothing.”
“No, you said you’d kiss it? Is that true?” Still bearing his investigative gaze, Dragon heightened all his senses to have an interpretation with her every body language.
“But you said no, so I understand it.”
“No, no, no, you should heal this.” Dragon pointed his nose as he sluggishly wheeled his chair closer to her again.
“No, I’m a man of my words, but I respect others words as well. So, not gonna happen.” Seraphina slightly shook her head as she returned Dragon’s words against him
“No, you’re a woman and now, I take those words back.” As adamant as he can be, Dragon waved his hands off as he competed with Seraphina’s stubbornness.
“That’s right,” with that said note, Dragon didn’t wasted a millisecond as he swiftly carried Seraphina like a sack and placed her on his broad shoulders. He made sure to carry her this way to prevent her from escaping.
Fortunately, Seraphina retaliated as she let him carry her like that while her whole view of the room turned upside down.
“Thanks for the suggestion, Mr. Hacker. Now, time to wake up and get your job done. Ciao.” Dragon uttered without slowing down his pace as he exited the underground room.
X slightly raised his still dizzy head and saw Seraphina waved at him like a lost doll. For a moment, X could not believe that code he could never crack was being taken away like that; and she wasn’t retaliating at all!
“*sigh* I guess she’s still a woman after all.” X sighed in frustration. Now, he could not unsee that scene. His views and image towards the domineering Don that Seraphina built up through the years was slowly shattering like a frame being hammered.

Oldman Zhang grimaced by the losing streak of his player. Riggs’ had almost lost his ch_i_p_s and only a few thousand dollar ch_i_p_s are left.
“Did his luck ran out?” Oldman Zhang mumbled seeing that the cards on Riggs hands were all in a bad shape.
“My kitty, are you still betting on that guy?” David Ong whispered to Venus ears as she lost more money than the ch_i_p_s that her player betted.
Venus didn’t responded to both men as she fixed her eyes on Riggs slightest change of expression. If not for the years of playing this game with him, none would notice Riggs tricky facial change of countenance hence, she needed to confirm his mood.
For some reason, seeing that the table Riggs and the considerable amount of bets between Venus and Alex, other guests focused more on that particular table; making their own bets on each player.
After some time, Venus smirked before she turned her head on David Ong’s worried face then on Alex, “All in, a total of 10 million dollars.”
Seeing her confidence, Alexander Han gulped a mouthful of saliva. He hadn’t played with any kind of these games with Riggs, but he knew that Venus and the rest of his confidant does. Hence, this confident smirk only meant that have to say goodbye to his ten million dollars.
“Alright, 10 million it is.” Despite knowing his lost, Alex could only feign ignorance about Venus devious scheme.
