Secrets Of The Neglected Wife: When Her True Colors Shine Read Online Free

Chapter 519: Melanys smile faltered for a beat.

Before she could respond, Allison added lazily, Miss Prescott, you sure dont have the best eye for recruits.

Amor shrugged, unfazed.

Its only a million.

Im just here to enjoy myself.

Even if shes… less than competent, I can afford to let her play along.

Melanys smile grew strained.

She couldnt help the feeling that both of them were humiliating her.

Good luck, Mrs.

Stevens, Allison added with a meaningful smile.

Dont lose everything.

Melanys face hardened, but with so many eyes on them, she held her tongue.

The dealer shuffled the deck, moving deliberately as everyone watched.

The game began, and players turned over their cards one by one.

Despite her inexperience, Melany seemed to have extraordinary luck.

She managed to get a pair on her first round, prompting her to grin.

I guess luck is on my side tonight, she said.

Amor, on the other hand, was effortlessly lucky.

In just four rounds, she scored three pairs, drawing murmurs of admiration from onlookers.

Meanwhile, Allisons luck soured quickly.

Six rounds in, and she still hadnt scored even a single pair.

Fay, who had been watching with barely contained malice, seized the opportunity to taunt her.

I thought you were just playing modest.

But it looks like your lucks slipping.

I dont see any chance Scarlet Snake can win.

Surely Miss Prescott will be the winner! Right? Im lucky Miss Prescott let me off without embarrassment.

Shes really good at this! Someone else added, Heh, the only person who should be embarrassed is the snake without a single pair! I think shes just pretending again.

Watching from nearby, Colton clenched his fists.

His eyes remained glued to Allison despite Melanys presence at the table.

He felt conflicted.

He had come to watch for some fun, to regain some dignity, yet here he was, anxious for her.

Would she lose? But Allison showed no sign of concern, continuing to turn over her cards.

She still hadnt scored.

You seem a little unlucky tonight, Scarlet Snake, Amor mocked, turning over another card.

She played with steady precision, seemingly confident.

After all, she had the cards marked and memorized.

By the tenth round, she had six points.

Melany, meanwhile, appeared more composed.

She wasnt spending her own money, and her results reflected it.

By the end, shed scored just one point and lost all her chips.

Im out, she announced with a carefree smile.

I guess Ill go shopping with my husband.

You all go on without me.
