Chapter 495

Tessa flashed a mischievous grin. "So, who's the Queen of Hearts?"

Joshua's face was stone cold.

Carolyn pressed her lips together and quietly showed her cards.

Joshua shot Carolyn a frosty glare, his mood getting darker by the second. Nobody dared say a word-they could all feel the tension radiating off him. Suddenly, Allison let out a cold little laugh.
