My Sweet Second Marriage (Eudora and Amos)
Chapter 902

However, Eudora grew nervous.

Even the smartest person would have a weakness and Eudora's was cards and games.

She was innately not interested in playing those things hence she had never learnt to play.

Hearing that she had not idea how to play, Harley instantly increased the stakes by three times.

"Eudora, don't blame me for being too selfish. I'm making money for Little Pumpkin!"

The 'Little Pumpkin' that Harley had mentioned was the baby in Thea's belly.

Thea said that Harley had named the baby in such a way because he thought that Cutie Pie matched well with Little Pumpkin and they would be a good pair. Thus, the husband and wife had decided impetuously to name their baby as 'Little Pumpkin'.

Eudora looked anxiously at Amos as she asked, "What if I lose and go bankrupt?"

Amos instantly handed her a Centurion Card and said, "It doesn't matter! I still have a lot of money here."

Harley couldn't stand it anymore.

"Bro, that's enough! Don't publicly display affection in front of my wife! We all know that you are a caring husband."

Amos said, "Shut up!"

Soon, a new round began!

The three men switched over to make fruit tarts in the kitchen while the three women started playing cards!

Harley's face was full of confidence as he announced, "Thea is the best at playing cards. This round, you guys are going to lose for sure!" Christopher did not give in either.

"Tina is good at it too. I don't think she will lose."

After the two of them finished speaking, they looked at Amos simultaneously. They saw Amos making fruit tarts slowly and composedly.

"We shall see."

Harley started to feel smug. The fact that Amos didn't say much gave Harley the impression that Eudora really had no idea how to play. While holding a tart, he decided to run over to watch the game.

"Eudora, don't be nervous! I can explain the rules of the card game to you."

After explaining the rules to Eudora, Harley shamelessly proposed another suggestion.

"Eudora, why don't we raise the bet a little higher? It's rare for us to gather and play cards, hence, let's make a huge bet!"

Eudora did not refute and said, "Sure!"

"Then, let's double it!"

After finishing his words, Harley rubbed his hands in excitement and stared at them as they began to draw cards!

Thea was really good at playing cards, and her luck was not too bad either. She started out on the right foot!

Although Tina's luck wasn't as good as hers, she was skillful in playing cards! She played very well and she faced no problems.

Only Eudora, who had no strategy at all, made a 'call' or 'raise' whenever she liked.

Most of the time, she lost.

Seeing that, Harley thumped his chest and stomped his feet. He said, "Eudora, I was wrong. I shouldn't have raised the bet just now. I feel like I'm bullying you! I'm too shameless!" Harley was actually showing off.

However, Eudora still answered him seriously, "It's

okay!"

As they were thinking about it, Thea began the last round of bet. According to Eudora's playstyle, Harley had already predicted that there would not be any trump cards in Eudora's hand! He thought that no problems would arise if Thea played it carefully.

In reality, Thea had really played cautiously as he wished! Nothing had gone wrong too when it was Tina's turn.

Thea would win if Eudora was unable to turn the tide of the game this turn.

However, Eudora suddenly took out a Joker and formed a 'Flush' in the showdown. It stunned all the people around the table.

Eudora laughed and said, "I've played all my cards. Did I win?"

Harley was mystified and said, "Eudora, where did you get that card?"

Eudora replied and said, "This card has always been in my hand!"

"I thought we didn't have any wildcards left in our deck!"

"But I hadn't used it yet!"

Amos walked over to them from the side. One by one, he counted the cards. There were fifty-four of them, including two wild cards, one of which had been drawn by Eudora. They did not expect the wild card to be in her hands.

Unexpectedly, Eudora had won.

Eudora was quite happy to win her first card game.

She stuffed the pot into the box and said with a smile, "Why don't we make a lower bet for the next rounds?"

Harley refused and said, "No! Eudora, you can't do this. Those who win the money are not qualified to propose new bets!"

"There's such a rule?" Eudora was surprised. Although Harley was only kidding, Eudora thought he was being serious and stayed quiet.

Another round soon began. This time, Harley kept staring at Eudora and took notice of her cards.

In the end, she still won!

She had truly won this time! All by herself!

Harley covered his face and said, "Didn't you say that you don't know how to play cards? Eudora, you must have been lying to me!" There was a look of confusion on Eudora's face as she said, "I really don't know how! If you don't believe me, you can ask Amos!" Amos nodded and said, "I can testify!"

Harley had nothing left to say, so he left. While leaving, he said, "I don't want to talk to you anymore. You two are a pair of devils!" Eudora was amused by his antics.

Eudora, who had just got addicted to the card game, said dejectedly, "Weren't you the one who suggested we play cards? Come on, I still want to play!" Amos caught up with Harley, who was ready to leave.

"Go and play cards with my wife!"

Harley said contemptuously, "You monster! We're so miserable after losing so much money to your wife, yet you still want us to play against her again!" Amos handed him another card and said, "It's on me!"

"Alright!"

Harley went back happily with his wife and child in tow!

"I'll win this round!"

The first day of the new year had passed just like that! Usually, people would pay their parents a visit too. However, since Eudora had lost her parents, there was no need for her to go anywhere. Therefore, Eudora suggested another gathering, asking them, "Shall we continue to play cards tomorrow?"

Tina nodded and said, "I'm in!" She was bored and reluctant to meet the relatives from the Gellert family either, even more so that she was pregnant now. It would be bad if they hurt her when she went back. Playing cards at home was the better choice.

Thea shook her head and said, "I can't. I have to return to my family tomorrow!"

Upon mentioning the Stewart family, the three of them fell silent.

Everyone knew that Thea had a bad relationship with the Stewart family. The Stewart family had always looked down on Thea and Harley.

They did not go back last year because Thea had just given birth to a baby. Hence, they had to return this year!

Eudora pursed her lips and said, "Is there anything that I could help with? If you need our help, just ask!"

"There's no need!" Thea said with a smile.

"I'm just going back to my parents' home, not on my way to a fight. So, don't worry about me!"

Eudora nodded. Then, they continued to play two more rounds.

After coming out of Clearwater Bay, Thea looked at Harley.

"We're going back to my family's place tomorrow. Are you afraid?"

Harley tried to speak effortlessly and casually. He said, "Nonsense! Even gangsters and scoundrels can't frighten me, so why would I be afraid of your father? That's fine with me." After that, he couldn't help but take a deep breath.

Of course, he was scared!
