Chapter 1209
Elizabeth’s eyes lit up, “Where’s the photo?”
“Right here!”
Yulia, who was on her way to the kitchen, halted and glanced at the phone in Anya’s hand. Damon, Chloe, and Rose, who had just walked in, also looked at Anya’s phone.
Yulia’s legs suddenly went weak. So this was why Anya had been so insistent on taking her phone.
Anya was planning to tell everyone about it.
“Wow… that is so cute!”
By this time, Elizabeth had seen the photo on the phone. It showed Anya in various poses and cute expressions, with a uniform background of Nathan and Yulia sleeping in each other’s arms.
If she went to bed late, then it’s understandable that she got up late.
Rose and Chloe also approached to take a look, then glanced at the two who hadn’t entered the kitchen yet. They all chuckled.
Yulia was so embarrassed that she wanted to crawl into a hole. Was she raising Anya just to expose her own photos? She gave an awkward smile to Chloe and Rose before quickly walking into the dining room.
After they finished breakfast, which was already close to noon, Elizabeth decided not to let anyone leave.
“Ladies, let’s play bridge! Gentlemen, play chess!”
This arrangement was perfect. However, the gentlemen didn’t follow her suggestion to play chess, instead choosing to stay by their wives‘ sides. They all stayed close to their wives. Rose sat alone, tapping on the table. “You’re all ganging up on me?”
Chloe looked at her and laughed, “When did you learn to play bridge?”
“Mobile games!” Rose answered without hesitation, then smirked at Chloe, “Have you never played bridge?”
Chloe nodded, “No, I haven’t.” Where would she find the time to play bridge?
Rose squinted her eyes and smiled, “That’s okay, it’s easy to learn! You’ll get it after a few rounds.”
Chloe looked at her and gave a slight smile, “Let’s make a bet.”
Rose nodded, showing no signs of fear. “If I lose, my son will take your last name. If you lose, you’ll be my next husband.”
Chloe nodded, “Okay.”
Damon, sitting nearby, his face turned gloomy. Those two bets, either making her a father or a husband, then where should he go?
Nathan, watching from the side, couldn’t help laughing. “Go for it, try to make her cheat on her current hubby.”
Damon’s gaze swept across him coldly. Nathan coughed and looked away, “Let’s start.”
The first round began, Damon watched as Chloe didn’t even know how to sort her cards, so he helped her.
“You know how to play bridge too?” Chloe looked at him, full of surprise and admiration.
“I used to watch my mom play.”
Elizabeth laughed, “What? You only watched me play a few times twenty years ago.”
“That’s enough.”
If he had to spend a lot of time learning this, then it wouldn’t be a popular entertainment anymore.
The first round, Chloe played terribly. Her cards were sorted by Damon, but she messed them up.
Rose sat beside her, playing well and winning a round. Damon sat coldly on the side, if Chloe lost she would have to become someone else’s husband, if she won, she would have to become someone else’s father. He didn’t like either outcome.
He gave Rose a cold look. She was already married, she should behave.
Maybe she needed some lessons.
By the second round, Chloe was still playing terribly; even when she drew good cards, she played them chaotically.
She needed Spades, but played them all out, giving Rose the opportunity. As a result, Rose won another round!
“Chloe! You’re not doing this on purpose, are you!? If you keep playing like this, Rose is going to win big!” Elizabeth couldn’t help but speak out. If Chloe kept playing like this, Rose would definitely win big this round.
“Yes… you’re playing really… bad! It’s like you’re deliberately picking cards to play…” Yulia also couldn’t help but blurt out. It was almost like she was doing it on purpose.
Chloe looked confused, “Really? I don’t really know how to play, I’m just trying… So she’ll win big like this?”
*I think you’re really going to become Rose’s next husband today.” Elizabeth was unhappy, jealous of Rose’s big win.
Rose just smiled happily. “Chloe is a beginner. Cut her some slack!”
Chloe continued to play Spades, and with each card she played, Yulia and Elizabeth became more worried. They were afraid that she would let Rose win
Elizabeth was very nervous, and she told Chloe: “You’re really scary when you play cards. Can you please stop playing Spades, we’ve already said that Rose might win!”
Chloe looked helpless, “But I don’t need those cards.
“Even if you don’t need those cards, you can’t let someone else win.”
“Okay.” Chloe nodded.
Damon had no idea what to do with Chloe. His mom was right, he watched as she played out all the ‘Spades‘ she had sorted, as if she knew how Rose could win.
But in the end, his eyes lit up with interest. When it came to being cunning, no one could beat Chloe. She gave others hope first, then quietly dashed it. She had four of spades five. How could Rose win?
The first round, Rose basically let her grasp the basics of bridge. The second round, she figured out the card pattern. Now she definitely knew that Rose needed the spades five in her hand, which was why she dared to make such a bold move.
Now, all the cards in her hand were good, plus her four spades five, soi this round, the biggest winner was not Rose, but Chloe.
She was playing dumb here, wasn’t this cunning?
When it was her turn to play the last card, she placed the four spades face down on the table, concealing their faces. She smiled and said, “It’s my turn again, can I pick a card from there?”
She pointed at the pile of cards in front of Yulia.
That was a heart.
Elizabeth took a glance at the card and pursed her lips, “You take it.”
Chloe grinned, reaching out to pick up the card. Then she turned to Damon sitting nearby, winked, and asked, “Did I win?”
