Yvonne was about to agree when Jonathan suddenly spoke up, "Who even groups up like this? It's not professional at all."
As he said this, he randomly grabbed two spades and two hearts from the deck of cards, placing them face down on the table. "Each person picks one card, and those who pick the same color will be on the same team."
Magdalen grinned mischievously, "Then I'll pick first!"
She drew a card from the four options, took a peek, and kept it to herself.
"Ms. Macclain, your turn!" Yvonne looked at Estelle.
Estelle nodded and picked a card from the remaining three.
With only two cards left, Jonathan picked one up and said to Yvonne, "We don't need to pick anymore, one card each will do."
He kept one for himself and handed the other one to Yvonne.
The four of them flipped over their cards. Magdalen had the 5 of Spades, Yvonne had the Jack of Spades, and Estelle and Jonathan both had a Heart in their hands.
As Estelle raised her head, Jonathan looked over. Their eyes met, but Estelle quickly looked away and put down the 9 of Hearts in her hand.
Josiah was somewhat surprised. He originally wanted Jonathan and Yvonne to be in the same team, but now it was Estelle.
Yvonne hid her disappointment and still smiled, "Ms. Sampson, looking forward to working together!"
Magdalen's eyes sparkled, "It's my pleasure to be on the same team as my idol!"
They rearranged their seats. Jonathan and Estelle were a team, sitting across from each other, with Magdalen and Yvonne sat facing each other.
Josiah explained the game rules. Two people in a team were the house and the player, playing cards in the same suit with higher cards taking lower ones, and trump cards could take non-trump cards.
The players' goal was to earn points. 5 was worth 5 points, 10 was worth 10 points, and K was worth 15 points. If the players could get 80 points, they won, and they became the house in the next round.
If they didn’t get enough points, they could still win by playing all their cards before the house.
Josiah looked at Magdalen, "You don't have any Diamond cards?"
"I do!" Magdalen showed her the 10 of Diamonds.
Irritated, Josiah asked, "Why didn't you play it when Yvonne had the highest card? Are you saving it to give points to the enemy?"
Magdalen realized, "I forgot!"
Josiah found a reason to openly despise Magdalen, avenging his earlier humiliation.
Feeling frustrated, Magdalen said, "Again!"
However, Estelle and Jonathan quickly grabbed up 80 points, and Jonathan even played all his cards first, meaning a double win and promotion.
Magdalen sighed regretfully, "How did this happen? I thought my cards were good."
