It would be a miracle for him to get seventeen points. For the past two rounds, he already got nineteen points but it was still not enough to go against him, Sinvar truly felt that he had met a strong opponent! His gaze scanned through Frederick's card deck several times. However, he really did not see any traces. Frederick had nothing on his hands. He even took off his watch and his sleeves were folded up. Sinval made very sure of his chance in winning but he really did not expect this outcome! Frederick got up and said, "Should we wait for the cards in your machine to verify it again?" He was suspicious at first but now that Frederick mentioned it, it would be too calculative of Sinvar to insist. He was cooperative at this tof defeat. He got up and pushed the woman to him, "Alright, I admit defeat! She is all yours now!" He gulped as his eyes fell on Alicia. It was very difficult for him to hold back and he asked, "What are the conditions for you to give her to me! Tell me!" Frederick grabbed his coat and covered Alicia with it. He wrapped her up and took over his watch from the person taking care of it. He then wore the watch elegantly.
He said, "There are no conditions! I was just coincidentally in the mood to play with you!" Frederick took his tto tidy his outfit. When he looked at him this time, his facial expression was ice-cold and his attitude had a major turn. It was obvious that he was just being courteous earlier, and his tone becmore assertive now.

With a feeling of warmth, Alicia, who was in a daze, cback to her senses. It was as if she had been through a major episode. Her face was as white as paper, and she had no energy at all. Her vision fell on the woman in the white dress and she saw that besides the bodyguards, Willy was also beside her.
She was suddenly revived and cback to her thoughts.
That's right! They were all here; they cin together. Why were they nowhere to be found when they started playing cards? Why did they not say a word when it was so intense just now? Looking at Frederick's attitude, compared to how he was just now, it was such a drastic difference! The gamble was over and they all cout with bodyguards. They could literally fight with the man from the opposite side earlier! Sfractions of her memory started showing and all the pieces ctogether in her mind.
All of this was planned! He purposely used her as bait! It all made sense now. Usually, he would reprimand her for dressing in revealing clothes at home, but this the did not say a word when she wore such a revealing short dress. The fact that he even brought her to the casino to have fun? No wonder Carson suddenly poured wine on her! He even prepared a brand new dress with a tag for her! The way she was dressed up was ultimately to attract that person! No wonder he did not just simply pick a table to gamble at, but he took her to walk around! He hugged her closely before they got into the casino, but when they got in, he simply put his hand in his pocket. This was all planned, and he did it all on purpose to make others think that he did not care for her! Therefore, that man had asked for her more than once! This was all to lure the man! The man at the opposite side! That fool, he actually fell for it! And her! She was a fool too! She thought that she was the one who caused trouble! But in fact, it was him! He was the one who used her beauty as bait! From the moment she changed, to all these details, they were all on purpose! Therefore, when they got in, everyone disappeared. They probably went into action and were not there to actually gamble! That was why they showed up only when they had to! That was also why Frederick did not reject when the man asked to gamble and asked for her! And when he won the gamble, he was not courteous towards him anymore! The woman was his goal! Could it be that everything from the beginning was all his plan to get her into this? His caring and tender love was just to use her as his bait? For his despicable, immoral motive! Her body was cold and suddenly, Alicia felt that this man she got married to was someone unfamiliar! How could he play around with a woman just like that! She couldn't help but think about all those allegations about him.
"Mysterious, cold-blooded, stays away from women... Objectifies women and would do anything to women. He would even stuff goods inside a woman's body and almost kill them!" For the first time, Alicia truly understood how cold and extrhe could be to a woman! Was it true that all women are so unworthy in his eyes? She could understand why Sinvar did not treat women with dignity but he could not accept that her Hubby, the man she poured all her love into, would actually force her to such extremes, even death! But what if he lost...

Her heart froze and she suddenly realized that perhaps she was nothing to him! Just like what he was what he said earlier, perhaps he was just coincidentally in the mood. Maybe one day when he got out of the mood or found someone better, he would abandon her without a second thought!
She felt like she was his pet; he only wanted her when he thought of her, and she would get abandoned anythe disliked her. It was all a ed her. It was all'a matter of an order! She didn't know if she was afraid or just disappointed. At that moment, she started trembling. She didn't want to say a word, nor did she have anything to say. Frederick obviously felt it and hugged her tightly, "It's alright now. Let's go!" She turned around and pushed the chair away. She tried to move her legs but she almost fell down instantly. He reached out and held her, "Watch out!" It was then that he felt that she was freezing cold. He looked into her eyes and he could see the coldness underneath her gaze. He held her even tighter.
It must have been a major shock for her just now! Due to the fact that there were still
people around them and her legs were wobbly, Alicia did not push him away. She let him help her walkm outside Bebind them were Trevor and Willy who were dealing with the remaining things. The both of them did not say a word as they walked out. When they cout, Carson was already waiting for them. In his hand was her cardigan.
With a look, Alicia suddenly understood that this was all their plan. All this while, her cardigan was waiting for her outside.
He lowered his head apologetically while passing the cardigan to her, "I'm sorry for the fright, Alicia..." Unsure of their situation, he did not dare to say more. In his mind, what was important was that they were fine now since they cout safely! X
