John chuckled. “Master Carter, are you sure about that?”
Odell replied, “Of course.”
“Okay.”
John put the dice inside the cup again and scrambled it inside the cup. “Take a guess.”
Odell took a guess. “Three.”
John lifted the cup.
It was four.
Sylvia was speechless.
Odell grinned and turned to her again.
It had happened so many times that she was numb to it at this point. Without a word, she turned to him and offered her lips to him.
Odell smiled and kissed her on the lips, then turned to John again. “Hit me.”
John smiled calmly and repeated the same motion, ending with pressing the cup against the table. “Go ahead.”
Odell, “Six.”
John lifted the cup.

Sylvia was at a loss for words.
Had he not told her something about being good at this?
What was this?
How many times had he got it wrong by now? You would think that at one point he would at least chance into a correct guess, right?
Odell quickly turned to her again with a faint smile hanging on his lips. He had a look within his eyes that seemed like he was sorry for putting her through this.
As if to say that this was not what he wanted.
Sylvia stared at him blankly.
Odell leaned into her and kissed her on the lips, then he brushed the top of her head and vowed, “I‘ll get the next one.”
Sylvia chuckled dryly.
Bang. Again, John had set the cup with the dice on the table. He smiled and invited Odell to guess yet again. “Master Carter, your time to shine.”
“Two,” Sylvia suddenly said.
She was done kissing him in public.
John wore the same caricature of a smile that concealed all traces of emotion. Meanwhile, Sherry was doing her best to hold in her laughter.
It seemed like Sylvia had enough of Odell‘s losing streak.
She was going to take matters into her own hands.
John turned to Odell. “Master Carter?”
Odell smiled and glanced at Sylvia. “Two as well.”
John lifted the cup immediately.
Four. They were wrong yet again.
Sylvia was speechless.
Odell turned to her and smiled reluctantly.
Sylvia went in for the kiss with her eyes closed.
Shortly after, she felt the warmth of his lips.
Only this time, it was different from the previous kisses. It was a deep, passionate, and prolonged kiss. He finally let go when Sylvia began to protest.
She felt her entire body burning up.
She cast a look at John and Sherry.
John was still smiling while Sherry kept her mouth covered with both her hands. Her eyes had transformed into two slits, and
she was on the edge of bursting out in laughter.
Flint looked at his mother with his mouth agape and his eyes turning into two circles as if he was wondering why his father was constantly pecking at his mother‘s mouth.
Sylvia thought she only had herself to blame for making the wrong guess.

Odell replied, “Let‘s take a break.”
John smiled. “Sure.”
The waiter brought drinks, fruits, and snacks to them.
Flint clapped enthusiastically when he saw the food presented.
Sylvia picked up an orange and peeled the skin off its flesh before putting it into the boy‘s mouth, slice after slice.
Shortly after that, the manager in charge of the venue joined them inside the room.
Upon entering, he greeted John and Odell with a polite smile and informed, “Master Carter, Master Stockton, pardon my intrusion. We‘re about to hold an event in celebration o
John glanced at Odell and asked, “What kind of event?”
The manager informed dutifully, “There‘s going to be a number guessing game played with dice. The winner is the one who gets the most correct guesses.”
“What‘s the prize?”
“There are three prizes, the third place will win a polished ruby and the second place gets a diamond necklace. As for the first place, a special edition embroidery handmade by
very own master embroider, Mr. Goldclark.”
As he said this, several staff members appeared from behind with the mentioned prizes in a box.
The ruby and diamond necklace were captivating on their own, but they were nothing compared to the enchanting
work of embroidery, detailing the mountainous landscape of Glanchester
