Be Your Lover Forever (Alicia)

Chapter 1410 "I think I've seen the dawn of victory..."

Stroking the cards in his hand, the man's face was flushed with pride. With a faint smile, Waverly also began stroking her card as she looked at them nervously. Wyatt had just caught a glimmer of hope, but he did not expect Waverly to so casually toss out a good card. He unconsciously stopped her.

"Hey."

Unfortunately, it was too late, and his warning could not be heard over Mr Andrews' excited office. "I have

a double! My, Miss Castle, are you that impatient about losing?"

Without a sense of urgency, Waverly slowly grazed her finger over another card before tossing it out into the open with a faint smile. "My apologies, Black Jack!"""

She had played a hand of Black Jack, effectively becoming the winner of the game.

What a hand, indeed!

Everyone was instantly dumbfounded. Even Wyatt could sense that something was amiss. Did she deliberately toss the previous card out to bait the other player?

Did she get lucky, or had this been her plan all along?

Although she flashed a faint smile, Waverly's palms were pooled in sweat. She was in accounting and had

a talent for computer science. Not only was she great at numbers, she had an incredible memory. Whatever she wanted to remember, she would. Thus, she played a couple rounds to get the lay of the land, did some probability calculations in her head, and discovered what was needed to win.

All it took was great mental effort for her to win!

After this revelation, it did not take long for Mr Andrews' mountainous pile of chips to be reduced to a tiny hill. Just as everyone thought that they knew how things would end, the tables turned again and Mr. Andrews started winning round to round. The two men had thought that Waverly stood a chance if Mr. Andrews was to go easy on her, but it seemed that he was likely to emerge the final winner.
