Fall For “My Husband’s Uncle” By Janet Macadam

Chapter 9



Chapter

His words shocked everyone présent

The other three men looked at each other

Is he finally falling in love?they thought

Robert caught his hint and quickly echoed, Carlos, you’re right. Your partner can only serve you. It’s not right for her to be ordered around by others. Teresa, come out. I’ll do it for you.” 

Soon, everyone was seated

Edith knew nothing about Texas Hold’em poker and was not quick with numbers. She didn’t even know how to calculate the winnings

She didn’t even know how to play poker at all

She was about to fold the card King of hearts when Carlos suddenly whispered in her ear, Don’t do that. You will draw another King in the next round.” 

When she heard this, she turned in surprise and almost kissed him. The near miss shocked her and she immediately shifted her body, but didn’t realize that she almost fell out of the chair. If he hadn’t held her in his arms quickly, she would have fallen to the ground

Be careful.Seeing how adorable she looked when she was flustered, he could not help but tease her

It was really interesting

Edith quickly sat properly and pulled his hand away. She felt shameless as she was suddenly reminded that she was already a married woman

She deliberately kept her distance and casually folded the car card

The other three men just grinned and didn’t say anything

That night, Carlos seemed to be particularly interested and that was a good sign

In the next round, she did draw a King and thus, had a pair in her hands

Perhaps it was because she was nervous, even though Carlos was a master at poker, she remained flustered and often made mistakes. Even he could not save her

In the first round, she was the first player and lost miserably

She still lost in the second round, becauseshe had an extra card on hand. She didn’t know how that happened

In the third round, someone else won

In the fourth round, Carlos went to the bathroom and she lost miserably again

After the numerous rounds, she lost countless times

She was sweating profusely from the anxiety

Seeing her pale face, Robert couldn’t help laughing. Do you know? We haven’t won from Carlos for many years. This is the first time!” 

Cancan I ask how big your bets are? Howhow much did I lose?” 

It’s not a lot. If the first player won, it will be 2 million dollars, otherwise, it’s 200 thousand dollars. All in all, it is only about 200 to 400 million dollars!” 

Edith was astounded

Isn’t that a lot of money?”

She had lost so much in a short period of time. Although Carlos had said that he would be responsible for the game, she had lost too much

She observed him gingerly and found that he was calm. It seemed that the astronomical sum was not a problem at all. He looked indifferent, which made her a little relieved

He seemed to be a rich man

Just as she was feeling at ease, Carlos spoke up

A mellow and melodious voice sounded. You’re quite good a squanderer.” 

Edith blushed

These words sounded so dubious as if she was a black sheep in his family

The other three roared with laughter

Thisthis game is over. Can I go now?she asked nervously, afraid that Carlos would hold her accountable

200 million dollars! I can’t pay it back even if I sell myself!she thought
