The Kiss that Sparked it All novel Chapter 32

The person called John cheerfully handed Ellinor a dice cup, "Ellinor, I'll keep it simple so you won't accuse me of bullying you! Let's roll for the highest number, best out of three, how's that?"

Ellinor nodded modestly, "Sure, thank you."

Belinda, eyes reddened with worry, pleaded, "Ellinor, I was wrong, don't play with them! I'll drink, no matter how many bottles!"

How could Ellinor possibly outwit those three sneaky guys? If she lost, they'd definitely take advantage of her! No.

Ellinor patted Belinda's panicked hand, "Shush! Keep calm, it's all good."

How could it possibly be fine?

Belinda wanted to call Theo for help, but her phone was snatched away by one of them earlier.

They hadn't even started yet, and they were already surrounded by a crowd.

Everyone had a dice cup in hand.

John lifted his dice cup, shook it expertly, slammed it on the table, and smiled confidently, "Who’s going first?"

Ellinor politely replied, "You first!"

"So polite! Well, don't mind if I do!" John lifted his dice cup, revealing four sixes and one five, a total of twenty-nine points!

Nobody was betting on Ellinor. She was just a girl, how could she possibly know how to roll dice? It was all down to luck, and the chances of her rolling five sixes in a row were slim to none!

Unfazed by the doubts, Ellinor casually shook the dice cup and opened it. To everyone's surprise, she rolled five sixes!

John's confident smile froze, and he said begrudgingly, "Lucky roll! Let's go again!"

In the second round, John rolled five sixes!

Ellinor’s roll? Also five sixes!

A tie.

The third round began, and the crowd was even more interested, anticipating the final result.

Byran caught some information, he asked, "Who's that girl? Theo, do you know her?"

Jonah laughed, "That’s Theo's newlywed wife!"

Byran paused, frowned, and his gaze sharply turned towards Ellinor.

The curly-haired woman standing next to Theo's single-seat sofa held a glass of champagne. She swirled the wine thoughtfully, her beautiful eyes revealing a hint of disdain as she looked at Ellinor.

...

Ellinor threw the room card back at John like a dart, then dragged Belinda away.

Just as they were about to leave, Belinda suddenly remembered something and turned back to ask for her phone, "Give me back my phone!"

John, still feeling resentful, found an excuse, "Want your phone back? Then let her play another round with me!"

Ellinor was annoyed, she told Belinda, "Forget it, let your rich uncle buy you a new one when we get back."
