Genius Wife Is Naughty Again
Chapter 458

Chapter 458

This woman was poking fun at his scars! Everyone knew that he had lost to a woman two years ago, so what that woman said right now was another blow to his ego. When Ace heard her, he was literally gritting his teeth in anger."Stop bullsh*tting with me." Janet pushed her mask. "Don't delay my entrance to the casino!""Pfft!" Ace couldn't help but snicker when the woman in front of her spoke with alacrity. "I've seen people who are masochists, but I've never seen one as desperate as you! Seeing that you're a newbie, I'll let you pick a game for us to play."While Ace thought he was giving her a generous offer, what he said was merely a joke in Janet's ears. Right then, Henry leaned over toward her and reminded, "Janet, I think it's best if you pick something easy!"Like what?" Janet raised her eyebrows."The dice game, obviously! Aren't you good at that? I believe that you can do this!" Henry even did a fist pump after saying that."You can't do that!" Sean yelled right then. Under everyone's scrutiny, he moved over awkwardly and whispered into Janet's ear, "Miss Jackson, why don't you pick something else? It would be more meaningful if you do so." In reality, what he was really thinking about was for her to lose; only then could he only send her and the baby inside of her back to Sandfort City safely. The corner of Janet's lips lifted up slightly before she turned toward Ace, who was standing in front of her, and remarked, "I'm really new with this, so it's better if you pick the game."It had been a long time since she played any of these games, so she didn't know how good she could perform now. When Ace heard her, he relaxed his frown slightly. It looks like this girl is really a newbie. Now this is going to be fun. She's going to pay for everything that she has said!"Let's play blackjack then. You should know how to play that, right?"Blackjack was a well-known game globally and most people knew how to play it. In response, Janet pushed her mask slightly before replying calmly, "I know how to play this." Right then, Ace waved his hand and the server immediately caught on as he started shuffling the cards. "Let's settle this within one round this time!" Janet's facial expression was covered by her mask at that moment, so no one could see her emotions. Earlier, she had already wasted too much time with the guard, so she was getting rather anxious now since they still hadn't managed to meet Aquila after such a long time."Sure." Ace gave her a look of mockery. One match to decide the outcome? Is she seriously not embarrassed for saying that herself? She needs to know her place! Even if Jasmine the coward was here, I'm sure she wouldn't have said anything like that. How dare a newbie like her say something so arrogant? She's really making me laugh!In no time, the waiter had already shuffled the cards. After Henry checked the cards and made sure that there was nothing wrong with them, the match started. Janet, as the guest, was naturally the first to take a card.Blackjack's rules dictated that everyone had to first take a card and then continue taking cards. If the sum of the cards totaled up to more than 21 points, the player would be said to have busted, and that would mean that the player had lost; if the points were exactly 21, the player would win. When Janet reached out with her fair hands to get the first card, she managed to get the King of Hearts. Next, Ace reached out for his card as well; it was a five. While Henry was holding his chin and looking on with a worried expression, Sean was praying silently, hoping that Janet's cards would bust."Aw, man! I'm up to a bad start!" Janet cried out purposely before pouting to make herself look upset.At the same time, Mason stared at the card that she was holding before smiling knowingly. On the other hand, Ace gave the woman a cold look as a look of disdain flashed across his eyes. During the second round to get more cards, Janet managed to get the Queen of Diamonds, whereas Ace had gotten the King of Diamonds. Right now, Janet had 20 points, so she was in a risky position. If she managed to get one more point, this game would be her win. However, if she got more than one point, she would have busted, and without a doubt, it would be her loss.
