At the gaming table, Alice was outmatched by Mrs. Reyes.
As if that were not enough, Mrs. Reyes was not her only opponent; the others had subtly and unequivocally formed an alliance against her.
Tensions mounted as round after round slipped through his fingers, and his losses numbered in the hundreds of thousands.
Alice squeezed her cards tightly, realizing that she couldn't rely on her skill alone to beat them.
His eyes narrowed as he shifted his attention from the letters to Mrs. Reyes herself.
It was absurd how Mrs. Reyes seemed to win every hand.
Not even the luckiest person could have won so many times in a row.
Alicia's keen eyes soon picked up on a pattern. Every time Mrs. Reyes played a card, she would casually raise her hand to support her head, twisting her jade bracelet in a practiced, almost mechanical motion.
