DreameNovelChapter 536: "Something feels off. Why does this gseem more rigged than a carnival? No one ever flips the wrong card!" "I'm getting the svibe... But even if there's something fishy going on, it can't be a total draw, right? Amor and Scarlet Snake are in a fierce competition." Most of the chatter circled around the notion of cheating. Amor's expression soured further, her focus zeroed in on Allison as if the world around her had faded away. How had that woman seen through the cards? Amor was aware that the cards had been tampered with, but how had Allison managed to figure it out? The thought made Amor gasp. Could Allison have stumbled onto the secret? Impossible.

Her plea drew scorn from nearly everyone around.

Naturally, the dealer denied her unreasonable request. “Sorry, that's against the rules.”
Melany returned to Amor's side, her If as a board 'Amor...
expression stiff as a swear I didn't mean it!"
Just as Melany was about to squeeze out stears to apologize, Allison putin. Voh my, how did you En manage to flip the wrong card?"
Allison's tone was laced with feigned surprise as she pointed at a card in the southeast, "Did you see wrong? This one is the Seven of Hearts.” Her finger landed precisely on the marked card, exposing Melany's blunder.
