Chapter 854

As soon as Yvonne finished speaking, she heard Caroline declare, “I won.”

“That’s impossible!” Of course, Yvonne couldn’t believe it.

Caroline flipped her cards one by one to show Yvonne. “Why is it impossible?”

When the latter saw the final card, she held her breath momentarily. It was a royal flush!

“No, that’s impossible! Didn’t you say you don’t know how to play poker?” Yvonne questioned.

Caroline smiled faintly and answered, “That’s right. But I learned it on the spot.”

“That’s even more impossible! How did you learn it on the spot? No one taught you!” Yvonne argued.

“Why do I need someone to teach me? Can’t I learn by observing?” Caroline countered, chuckling as she looked at Yvonne.

“We’ve played so many rounds. Even a fool could pick up something, right?”

Nevertheless, she wasn’t up to Kirk’s level. He had probably figured out all the rules after the first game.

“This one doesn’t count. Let’s play another round.”

Yvonne was still convinced that Caroline was merely lucky.

At the same time, Marietta noticed Yvonne was somewhat disoriented. She couldn’t help but speak up.

Yvonne…”

However, Marietta’s words went unnoticed by Yvonne. “Let’s continue playing. Come on, everyone,”

Yvonne urged.

Betty, who was enjoying the drama, agreed. Caroline had no objections, either. Thus, Marietta could only continue playing.

Caroline won the round again. Moreover, Kirk wasn’t behind her. Even if Yvonne had her doubts, there was no one to be suspicious of.

“Carrie, you’re truly a smart girl! You figured out the rules after playing a few rounds with us,” Betty praised.

Everyone else was also intrigued by what was happening. After seeing Caroline win several rounds in a.

row, they showered her with compliments.

“Ms. Evans is impressive! She learned how to play poker in such a short time.”

“She’s exceptionally clever!”

“It sure is good to be young. They learn everything quickly.”

Meanwhile, Yvonne was rendered speechless. Underneath the table, she gripped her fists tightly.

She had planned to defeat and humiliate Caroline in poker. But to her dismay, the tables had turned.

She hadn’t expected that she would end up being embarrassed.

“Let’s play one more game! I can definitely turn this around!”

At that moment, Yvonne was consumed by the desire to redeem herself. She appeared no different from a gambler.

“That’s enough,” answered Caroline.

She gently pushed her chips aside, rose, and looked at Yvonne’s remaining few chips. “Remember to pay up.”

With that, Caroline walked away while everyone observed her. After a few steps, she recalled something.

She turned around with a faint smile, saying, “Ms. Yvonne, you’re an adult. You wouldn’t ask your parents to pay for you after losing tens of millions of dollars, right?”

Upon hearing those words, Yvonne’s face turned pale instantly. The onlookers also cast a meaningful glance at her.

Everyone knew that Yvonne lived off of her parents. Although plenty were like her among the wealthy heirs, she was … on the extreme end.

When she had first arrived in Macldo, she had gone wild with spending. It was to the point where those unaware could have mistaken her for a princess visiting Macldo.

That was also why Marietta had been busy writing scripts for a while. It was all because Yvonne was depleting her funds.

“I-I have my own money!” Yvonne snapped.

She straightened her back and added, “Don’t worry. I’ll pay you with my money.”

“That’s good to hear.”

After saying that, Caroline left. Before walking away, her gaze swept over Marietta.

For some reason, Marietta strongly felt that Caroline had done it intentionally. She looked at the latter’s Instead of thinking Caroline was at fault, Marietta felt a sense of comfort deep down.
