Chapter 512: Allison sat silently, her gaze darting between the community cards and her own hand, looking like a deer caught in the headlights.

It was the clear giveaway of a novice.

Even the dealer shook his head and declared, The final round of betting is closed.

The pot stands at two million and four hundred thousand.

Please reveal your hands.

Fay eagerly leaned in, ready to reveal Amors cards.

The entire rooms attention fixed on the table.

Amors hand, paired with the community cards, revealed only a pair of Aces, with the rest of her hand utterly flatfar from formidable.

But when Allisons hand was revealed, any lingering tension instantly dissolved.

Colton kept his gaze lowered, responding coolly, Yeah.

Meanwhile, Melany felt a quiet surge of satisfaction, tightening her hold on Coltons arm as she looked toward the poker table.

Fays laughter filled the room.

Scarlet Snake, Ive got to hand it to you! Who else would have the guts to go head-to-head with Amor with skills like yours? Youre just wasting her time! Fay couldnt fathom how Allison could have shown up with such a weak hand.

Why not just concede? Even in defeat, hold on to some dignity! Amor, eyes twinkling with amusement, rested her chin on her hand and looked at Allison with almost maternal patience.

Dont discourage a rookie too much.

Bad luck if you ask me.

I might just change my mind, she teased with a faint smile.
