Alice curled her lips into a satisfied smile as she accepted the money. Her bank account had seen a noticeable increase, and she was smiling with pleasure.

Caden watched her intently, his thoughts drifting. He remembered the Bennett family's extravagant lifestyle, where even their dog wore a gold chain. Then she married Joshua. Now she was delighted with such a paltry sum.

Alice's mind returned to one thought. "You should have known that Mrs. Reyes was cheating on you, right?"

Caden just agreed.

Piqued by curiosity, he asked, “So how were you able to win?”

"I possess the ability to alter cards."

Alice opened her eyes in surprise. “You mean you can do magic? Like turning two into a three?”

Caden glanced at her. “Are you really taking me at my word?”

Of course, he couldn't change the cards. He had simply figured out how women cheated and calculated the odds, managing to win a few rounds by chance.

Alicia was speechless, frustration flaring up. Clenching her jaw, she muttered a couple of curses under her breath and walked away, clutching the hem of her dress.
