No More Waiting, She Chooses Love

Chapter 583

Thwack!

As one pool ball after another sank precisely into the pockets, the crowd beneath erupted into excited shrieks, seemingly in awe of my accurate shots.

And with every shot, my confidence soared, especially with the thought of Ernest right there by my side. A voice in my heart roared: Felicia Hudson, it's time to show him a side of you he has never seen. Ernest and I had been together for ages, but he had never seen me play pool.

Because my pool skills were tied up with memories of Conrad Wagner, I feared Ernest might feel uneasy knowing that.

But here I was, flaunting my skills right in front of him...

Crash!

I took another shot, the ball spinning towards the pocket, but just as it seemed about to drop, it inexplicably stopped, as if sucked in by an invisible force.

So, I didn't manage to clear the table in one go, and it was Yolande's turn to shine.

The crowd screamed again, this time in anticipation of the showdown between Yolande and me.
