Chapter 1170 Take a Card Matthew took a deep breath and slowly reached out his hand into the glass box. His movement was rather slow, but it was definitely steady. Swiftly, he picked up the ace of hearts that was nearer to the opening.

Seeing that, the crown prince subconsciously cackled as he knew that Matthew was bound to lose at this very moment. “My turn!” Smiling, he turned to the women beside him. “Any of you beautiful ladies willing to take a card for me?”

The women almost cried aloud as they forcefully shook their heads.

He was obviously disconcerted. “Oh, ladies, I can still remember how you said you love me so much you’d jump into the ocean for me earlier! Now I’m just asking for you to take a card for me. Why are you so reluctant? Tsk, women and their rapidly changing hearts. This is no way to do it! Since you said you love me, you must prove it! You, come and grab a card for me!” He pointed at one of the women.

The woman was thoroughly startled. She hastily pleaded, “Please let me off on this one, Prince… I belong to Eastcliff’s Leigh Family. Can you please let me go, for the sake of the Leighs?”

The crown prince walked up to her and grasped her hair before shoving her face into the box’s opening. “F*ck do I care about your last names. I don’t give a flying f*ck! Either you put your hand inside and grab a card, or your face is just gonna stay here, and you’ll die an ugly wh*re!”

The woman shrieked and kneeled down on the floor. “Please let me go, Prince. I can do whatever you want! Let me go and I’ll do whatever you want!”

“Since you’ll do whatever I want, take a card out for me!” The crown prince cackled.

The woman continued to beg. “I-I can’t do this, Prince… I’ll do anything! Anything other than this!”

“Then you’re lying straight to my face!” The crown prince roared as he gripped her hair and pushed her face against the opening.

At that moment, Matthew extended his hand and pulled the crown prince’s hand away.

“What are you doing?” the crown prince questioned with a deep voice.

With an apathetic face, Matthew replied, “You came up with a game and you made the rules. Yet, you won’t adhere to them. What’s the meaning of this? If you can’t afford to play it, crown prince, don’t play it at all.”

“What did you say?!” the men behind the crown prince reprimanded.

The crown prince raised his hand and stopped his underling with a faint grin. “You’re right. I made the rules, so I gotta stand by them. It’s my fault. I should be taking my own cards.” Having said that, he slammed the woman’s head on the corner of the table.

At once, the woman fell to the ground with her head profusely bleeding. It seemed like she no longer had any hope to live on.

“You!” Matthew grew vexed. He was trying to rescue the girl, but his attempt had shockingly gone in vain as the result of the crown prince’s brutality.

“Please this, please that. She’s so annoying! I can’t even play the game right.” The crown prince rubbed his palms. “Excuse me for the minor setback. Now, it’s my turn.” He proceeded to insert his hand into the glass box and after searching for a while, he pulled out an ace as well, but it was the ace of spades.

In cards, the value of the ace of spades was slightly greater than the ace of hearts. Regardless, what drew Matthew’s attention was the crown prince’s approach. His hand was rather quick, but the snakes didn’t bite him. Thus, it was obvious that there was some kind of snake repellent on his hand.

Soon, Matthew put his hand into the box. And this time, he grabbed the king of hearts, to which the crown prince slightly smiled and pulled out the king of spades. As they continued, Matthew secured the queen of hearts, followed by the crown prince’s obtainment of the queen of spades. Matthew would then acquire the jack of hearts, only for his opponent to grab the jack of spades.

As it had come to their final cards, the crown prince uttered, “Matthew, I gotta remind you that this is your only chance at beating me. If we were to obtain the royal flushes, a spade royal flush is greater than a heart royal flush!”
