Poker game on the Internet?
How could it be the same!
Wendy felt as if she was sitting on pins and needles, and her palms were sweating. Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.
She had no experience in gambling, nor did she know how to do it. She just relied on Charlie's on- the-spot teaching. Without any luck, she had lost two games, and had lost half of the chips in the tray. On the contrary, Helen won the game happily.
Wendy couldn't hold on any longer and wanted to get up. She was afraid that she would lose all the rest of their chips.
Charlie seemed to have seen through her thoughts. He secretly pressed her on the chair with his palm and said, "Don't be afraid, I'm here."
The palm of his hand stopped on her back. There was an invisible force in it.
Wendy couldn't help but sit up a little bit, and the dealer had begun to issue the cards again.
After the three rounds, only she and Helen were left on the table. The cards in her hand were a little small, eight, nine, and ten hearts. Although it was connected, she still had no chance to win compared with Helen's three "K" cards.
Even if she didn't understand the rules, she knew how unlikely it was for her to have straight flush.
There were not many chips left. Wendy wanted to give up, but Charlie held her hand and pushed out all the chips left in the tray.
"...Charlie!"
Wendy cried out in shock.
Charlie looked at her and said, "Issue the cards!"
Helen, who was on the opposite side, had won two rounds in a row and had already been complacent. Seeing Wendy pushing out all her chips, her eyes suddenly lit up. After confirming the cards in her hand, she pushed all the chips without hesitation.
Wendy was so nervous that she held her breath.
She was flustered by the voice of the card issued, so she didn't dare to open the card when she took it.
The white man and Helen both opened the cards one after another, and it was her turn. Wendy forced herself to open the card, and the appearance of the J heart shocked her so much that she almost opened her card excitedly.
There was a burst of exclamation at the table. Straight flush!
Charlie swept the chips on his tray and got up with Wendy in his arms. "We're done. Let's go!"
Wendy stared at her hands and couldn't believe it. She hadn't come back to earth from the excitement just now. It was the first time in her life that she had participated in gambling, but she still won? Not only did she win back the money, but she also won two more piles.
In addition to more joy, there were also fears. Thinking of Charlie's choice, she could not help but turn her head and ask, "Charlie, how do you know there will be straight flush?"
"I guessed!" Charlie said.
"Oh my god..." Wendy was dumbfounded.
She couldn't help but look back. Passing through the crowd, she saw that Helen and her daughter hadn't left the gambling table yet. Her face was stiff and she was still staring at the gambling table.
It was no wonder that everyone said that gambling was not a good thing.
There was only a fine line between winning and losing.
Wendy pursed her lips and looked at Charlie again. She opened her mouth and wanted to speak but stopped.
However, Charlie seemed to know what she wanted to ask. He narrowed his deep eyes and said, "Do you want to ask me about so many tables, but why did I choose that table? The reason is very simple. I'll beat them up every time I see them!"
Wendy was stunned again.
They didn't stay any longer. When they arrived at the front desk, the chips were transferred into cash, and Charlie stuffed the cash all in her hands.
Wendy stretched out her hands and held the cash. It was a total of six piles of cash.
She had never own so much cash at one time before.
"I don't want it..." Wendy hurriedly pushed back. "You won it yourself." Charlie raised his eyebrows lazily.
Wendy still shook her head and refused, but he said in a serious voice, "Take it!"
Yolanda and Helen also didn't stay in the casino.
Helen's face was very gloomy. When she went out, she deliberately found a fault and scolded the doorman. She got in the car and drove far away, and the atmosphere in the car was also very tense.
Yolanda looked at the mirror to fix her makeup. After a while, she threw the lipstick out of the window. "D*mn Wendy, what's good about her? Why does Charlie like her? How can he bring her to Macau to play?"
Helen's heart was also burning with anger. In the end, she not only won but also lost all her money!
"She is just a little b*tch who was kicked out of the Lim family. Why on earth should she let Charlie not even look at me!" Yolanda held the famous brand bag on her knees with hatred. Especially when she thought of the intimacy between the two of them on the gambling table, she was so jealous.
Upon hearing this, Helen frowned and asked, "Yolanda, you still don't give up?"
"I've liked Charlie for so many years..." Yolanda pouted.
"Your dad did mention the marriage to Mr. Hogg at home last time, but he refused. And after knowing the reason, your dad didn't dare to mention it again..." Helen looked at her daughter. "Yolanda, you're still young now, and you have time to do anything. There are a lot of rich young masters, and we still have enough time to pick!"
However, Yolanda disagreed. "But in the entire Ice city, no one can compare to Charlie!"
Helen didn't say anything, because what Yolanda said was true and she couldn't refute it. Perhaps in the entire Ice city, no one could find a man more excellent than Charlie in terms of family background or appearance.
"That's true, but..."
"Mom!" Yolanda frowned and interrupted. She raised her head with a determined look on her face. "I'm not afraid. Even if I can't marry into the Hogg's family, I only want to be Charlie's woman! Mom,
didn't you wait for a long time with dad and finally take over this position? So these are not a problem!"
Helen did not say anything after hearing her daughter's words. To some extent, she acquiesced in her daughter's words.
After she married into the Lim family, she successfully drove Wendy out of the Lim family. To the outside, Yolanda was almost the only daughter of the Lim family, and she was also the apple of her hand. Moreover, in terms of appearance or figure, which one of Yolanda was worse than Wendy?
Thinking of Charlie who had protected Wendy before, she had been a little surprised at that time. She didn't expect that the scene would appear again at the gambling table. It seemed that Wendy was very pleasing to Mr. Hogg. She must have used some kind of seductive means to attract Charlie, just like her mother who had committed suicide!
She was dead. Even till now, Johnny would occasionally murmured that woman's name while sleeping. When she thought so, she completely forgot that she was the mistress.
Yolanda knew what Helen was thinking. She raised her eyebrows and said, "Mom, wait and see. Wendy won't be happy for a long time!"
Helen was slightly stunned and saw that her daughter's face was full of confidence.
"By the way, mom! Do you think Wendy will tell dad? Dad hates gambling the most!" Yolanda suddenly thought of something and asked nervously.
"What are you afraid of!" Helen was not flustered at all. She tugged at the creases on her clothes and said, "Even if she dare to complain, so what? I just need to bring up the child I lost to your dad and say something sweet. Who do you think your father will believe, me or her?"
Helen and Yolanda looked at each other and smiled knowingly.
