Now His Rival 98

Chapter 98 Impossible

Harlan was confident that no one could shuffle cards better than he could.

In his hand were three solid cards-a King of Hearts, a Queen of Hearts, and a Jack of Hearts.

He believed Brenna might have known her way around a deck, but she was no match for him.

He laid down the smallest one first-the Jack. Then, he gave Brenna a gentlemanly smile. He didn't care that

his face was marred with scars. As long as his cards held, he could always get his way back to the top.

"Brenna, it's your turn," he said. He glanced at the staff member beside him. The man held a sharp knife for the punishment after the game. Harlan imagined Ethan sitting helpless, watching the woman he loved lose a

finger.

Brenna didn't seem pleased with what she held. She let out a soft sigh, a touch of gloom in her eyes, and

tossed one card onto the table without much thought.

Harlan figured it was just some ordinary card. From the way Brenna looked, downcast and disappointed, he was sure her hand didn't stand a chance against his.

With a smug smile creeping across his face, he glanced at the card she had

thrown. But it turned out to be an Ace of Spades.

"Impossible! I shuffled the cards myself. You were supposed to get low ones. How could it be an Ace?" he

exclaimed in shock.

His palms turned clammy. The two cards he had left were both weaker.
