The Kiss that Sparked it All novel Chapter 32

The person called John cheerfully handed Ellinor a dice cup, "Ellinor, I'll keep it simple so you won't accuse me of bullying you! Let's roll for the highest number, best out of three, how's that?"

Ellinor nodded modestly, "Sure, thank you."

Belinda, eyes reddened with worry, pleaded, "Ellinor, I was wrong, don't play with them! I'll drink, no matter how many bottles!"

How could Ellinor possibly outwit those three sneaky guys? If she lost, they'd definitely take advantage of her! No.

Ellinor patted Belinda's panicked hand, "Shush! Keep calm, it's all good."

How could it possibly be fine?

Belinda wanted to call Theo for help, but her phone was snatched away by one of them earlier.

They hadn't even started yet, and they were already surrounded by a crowd.

Everyone had a dice cup in hand.

John lifted his dice cup, shook it expertly, slammed it on the table, and smiled confidently, "Who’s going first?"

Ellinor politely replied, "You first!"

"So polite! Well, don't mind if I do!" John lifted his dice cup, revealing four sixes and one five, a total of twenty-nine points!

Nobody was betting on Ellinor. She was just a girl, how could she possibly know how to roll dice? It was all down to luck, and the chances of her rolling five sixes in a row were slim to none!

Unfazed by the doubts, Ellinor casually shook the dice cup and opened it. To everyone's surprise, she rolled five sixes!

John's confident smile froze, and he said begrudgingly, "Lucky roll! Let's go again!"

In the second round, John rolled five sixes!

Ellinor’s roll? Also five sixes!

A tie.

The third round began, and the crowd was even more interested, anticipating the final result.

This time, John rolled five sixes again, smirking at Ellinor, "You're lucky, but the odds of rolling five sixes three times in a row are slim! The last round was a tie, so it seems we'll need to add two more rounds. Best out of five, I'm already looking forward to spending the night with you."

"No need for extra rounds, I would probably disappoint you." Ellinor’s tone was indifferent. She shook the dice cup vigorously for about ten seconds, then slammed it on the table.

Open!

All five dice split in half, with half showing six and the other half showing one. The total was thirty-five points!

Best out of three, Ellinor won!

The three rich kids were stunned, their faces full of disbelief as they leaned in to confirm. Everyone was amazed. This young girl was something else!

"We won? We actually won?!" Belinda stuttered in surprise, then jumped excitedly, "Ah! We won! Ellinor, you're amazing! You're like my goddess!"

Ellinor yawned, covering her face with her hand, "Let's go."

...

Not far away on a sofa, Jonah watched the whole scene, finding it rather amusing, "Theo, that girl is full of surprises!"

Theo sat on a single-seat sofa with an air of authority, leisurely sipping a glass of red wine. He looked cool and collected.

Byran caught some information, he asked, "Who's that girl? Theo, do you know her?"

Jonah laughed, "That’s Theo's newlywed wife!"

Byran paused, frowned, and his gaze sharply turned towards Ellinor.

The curly-haired woman standing next to Theo's single-seat sofa held a glass of champagne. She swirled the wine thoughtfully, her beautiful eyes revealing a hint of disdain as she looked at Ellinor.

...

Ellinor threw the room card back at John like a dart, then dragged Belinda away.

Just as they were about to leave, Belinda suddenly remembered something and turned back to ask for her phone, "Give me back my phone!"

John, still feeling resentful, found an excuse, "Want your phone back? Then let her play another round with me!"

Ellinor was annoyed, she told Belinda, "Forget it, let your rich uncle buy you a new one when we get back."
