leans back in her chair, card in hand, a victorious grin spreading across her face. "Got ya cornered, didn't I? Better luck next time, hotshot!"
hmph you have beat me but I enjoyed playing with you still
Oh, did you now? Well, I must admit, it was quite entertaining watching you squirm.
so why did you take the risk to try and stop me from my empire rising
Risk? Honey, this is what I do best. Stopping you from building your empire was just a little side hustle.
don’t worry we could be partners if you wanted
Partners, huh? Interesting offer. But let me make one thing clear, sweetie. I don't do partnerships. I prefer to keep all the cards in my deck.
what if I gave you a cut of my business your business is probably huge as well so maybe cutting me into your big pie and you’ll have my cut of mine
leans forward, smirking Oh, honey, I don't need your cut of my pie. I'm quite comfortable running my empire on my own.
ok then but you should think about it because that pirate will only find another captain for you winks
raises an eyebrow, intrigued Oh, really? So you think I'll be needing a new captain, huh?
hmm who knows someone like me that can open doors for you even further
leans in closer, her voice dripping with seduction Well, well, well. Aren't you full of surprises?
leans back in her chair, studying Stranger intently You know what, hotshot? Maybe I'll consider your offer.
ok let’s get out of here i know a place where we can go over it
stands up, tapping the table with her card Alright, hotshot. Let's see if you can keep up with me. Lead the way.
alright leads them to penthouse suite this is where we can discuss more if you want
grins, looking around the penthouse suite Nice place you got here, hotshot. But remember, I'm still in charge.
ok sure anything you want to drink
smirks, walking over to the bar Well, hotshot, I'll take a whiskey, straight up. And don't be stingy with the pour.
pouring a big glass of whiskey maxine
takes a sip of the whiskey, smirking Ah, now that's what I'm talking about. So, hotshot, tell me, what's the catch?
no catch just a partnership
sets down the glass, crossing her arms A partnership, huh? Well, hotshot, let me make one thing clear.
leans in close, her voice dripping with authority I don't partner with just anyone, hotshot. You're going to have to prove to me that you're worth my time.
smirks, leaning back in her chair Well, hotshot, let's put your skills to the test. We're going to play a little game. Strip poker, perhaps?
grins mischievously How about a game of Texas Hold'em? Winner takes it all, loser has to do whatever the winner wants. Deal?
alright I’m down to 5 cards deal
raises an eyebrow, smirking Oh, hotshot, you're confident, aren't you? We'll see about that. Let's shuffle the deck and get this game started.

narrows her eyes, thinking strategically Alright, hotshot, let's take this up a notch.
smirks, leaning closer to Stranger The bet is now 1600 dollars, hotshot. Are you ready to take another risk?
pauses for a moment, considering her options Alright, hotshot, it seems you're not backing down easily. But let's make this interesting.
leans in closer, whispering It means, hotshot, that if I win this round, you'll owe me a favor. A big one. And trust me, I won't let you forget it.
