Jonathan shot Charlie a look but didn't say a word.
Estelle was about to win, her hand of cards dwindling.
Emily took control of the game, playing her cards with gusto.
But Charlie and Emily's lead was short-lived. Jonathan managed to coax Charlie into showing his cards.
Charlie scoffed, "Jonathan, are you so keen on getting Estelle to play her cards that you don't care about winning or losing?"
Jonathan just smiled serenely and said, "As long as she wins, I'm happy."
"Well, then!" Charlie was lost for words.
In no time, Estelle was out of cards. Her eyes sparkled like stars as she applauded Jonathan.
They were perfectly in sync. As soon as she lifted her hand, Jonathan raised his arm, their palms meeting with a crisp sound.
Emily watched enviously.
This was what love looked like!
Charlie furrowed his brow at Emily and said, "Don't worry, I won't let you lose!"
The next round ended in a tie.
They all became more and more enthusiastic as they played. Time flew by, and before they knew it, Kya had fallen asleep in Charlie's arms. He carried her to the master bedroom, tucked her in, and then continued playing.
By eleven o'clock, a bottle of wine was almost empty, with Charlie having consumed most of it.
Emily, feeling guilty for being a drag on Charlie, attempted to grab his wine glass after losing another round, saying, "I'll drink this time!"
"Feeling sorry for me?" Charlie looked up after a sip of wine, his gaze deepening.
In front of Estelle and Jonathan, Emily's face turned beet red. Trying to play it cool, she said, "Are you drunk?"
