360 The Underhand Deal


    After looking around, Sharon didn’t find anyone, but she didn’t notice that the surrounding crowd had automatically retreated.


    Only two pairs were left on the dance floor. Obviously, everyone realized that the dance of those two pairs was especially eye-catching.


    Sharon noticed that the man in the nightgown mask was also among them. She guessed that he was actually very good at dancing. Fortunately, I didn’t agree to his invite just now, or else he definitely wouldn’t be standing in that position now.


    At this moment, Whitney appeared beside Sharon unsteadily, reeking of alcohol. “Sharon, why are you standing here? I’ve been looking for you for a long time. Is my phone with you? Eh? You’ve gotten kicked out so quickly?”


    “It seems like thepetition for this round’s ‘dance queen’ is very intense. I wonder who the final winner is!” The host was also very excited as he spoke, his gaze fixed on the still dancing pairs.


    Seeing that the two pairs were still interacting and dancing, cheers came from the surroundings.


    It was only then that Sharon realized that the man-who was wearing a mask like Lupin the Third-was the person she had recognized wrongly just now.


    The man didn’t seem to be very interested in winning the championship; he did not even want to continue dancing with his female partner. He suddenly changed his steps and wanted to turn around and leave, but he didn’t expect his dance partner to hug him suddenly. Then, she stood on her tiptoes and wanted to kiss him.


    The audience present was shocked by her bold actions. Could it be that this woman wants to give him a French kiss in front of so many people?


    The host did not expect it either.


    When their eyes met, the man took a step back and dodged the woman’s surprise attack. When the two of them looked at each other, the woman’s eyes were like stars, and the man’s expression was very stunned. His eyes were as deep as ake, as if this matter had also caught him by surprise.


    When her n failed, the woman abruptly undid her mask. Then, her agile fingers reached behind the man’s head and gently pulled the rope behind the man’s mask.


    Instantly, the crowd eximed, saying that the two of them were verypatible.


    Sharon stared at the man and woman in the middle of the stage and was stunned. Why are the two of them together?


    Sharon never expected that the man was really Wace, and the woman standing in front of him was the daughter of the Gambling King, Crystal.


    “Thank you so much for apanying me to such a masquerade ball.” Crystal revealed a rare charming smile and looked at Wace smugly, as if she was very satisfied with his cooperation.


    Wace suppressed his anger and frowned. They had chosen to wear masks to hide their identities. Who knew that she would take off his mask in public?


    “Can you bring me to see your father now?” If it weren’t for the fact that he wanted to see Cole, Wace didn’t want to waste his time apanying Crystal. Although he had already worked with Sullivan, he didn’t expect to encounter obstacles when thepany was listed publicly. Besides that, Cole was obviously making things difficult for him on purpose to win back some face for Theo, who had embarrassed himself in his house.


    Therefore, he repeatedly emphasized that he would only agree to see Wace if he had satisfied his daughter, Crystal.


    “Why are you in such a hurry?” Crystal replied to Wace in a low voice. “I heard from Dad that the Harris family’s time is up, but I think you’re developing quite well. Your ownpany is even going to be listed. Actually, I’m quite grateful to Sharon and the CEO of Sullivan. That brother of mine has been spoiled by our family and doesn’t care about anyone. I’ve been wondering if anyone could teach him a lesson!”


    Wace lowered his head and looked at the hand on his waist. “This is your family’s business.”


    “I’ve always felt that you’re not an ordinary man. Even now, I think so too.” What Crystal regretted the most now was giving up on Wace. If she had known that he was so capable, she wouldn’t have been so stupid as to let him off!


    Wace wanted to pull her hand away, but Crystal suddenly asked, “Do you know who the person behind Xenia is?”


    Wace’s eyes lit up. He had been investigating this matter for a long time, but he really didn’t know anyone in this circle. After asking around a few times, it could even be said that nobody knew about this matter.


    “Actually, Xenia’s reputation in the industry isn’t very good, so the sugar daddy behind her always changes for no reason.” Crystal raised her curved eyebrows.


    Wace suddenly became interested in her words. Although I don’t know what Crystal wants to do, from the looks of it, she seems to know a lot about the inside story of Sharon’s participation in the casting selection.


    This matter piqued Wace’s interest. If it weren’t for Xenia, Sharon might’ve been able to advance and fulfill her dreams.
