His Heiress Wife (Retika)

A standard deck they were playing had forty-eight cards.

It was not difficult to remember these cards based on how they looked.

But if one wanted to remember the position of each card in the deck and in the other players’ hands simultaneously while the game was ongoing.

It was basically an impossible feat.

Because even if one knew all the cards in order and knew what cards the other party held in his hand and what cards he had not played yet, one could still not guarantee a win.

After all, poker was not only about playing cards.

It was also a psychological battle.

Everyone had their preferences when playing poker.

A player could remember another player's preferences when playing the game.

Some liked to play big, some small, and others played just for fun.

But the important thing to remember was to wait and be patient, which was always a difficult thing to do.

As a psychological game, those with stronger minds would win.

Iven looked at Melody in surprise, his eyes just about ready to pop out of their sockets.

"Melody, you are a wolf in sheep's clothing, aren't you?" he asked suspiciously.

"Did you pretend that you don't know the game to trick us?"

Melody raised her eyebrows and looked at Iven with eyes that were cold as ice.Her tone didn't hold any warmth when she asked, "Is there a need for me to do that to you?"

The cold insult, coupled with Melody's insufferable, arrogant attitude, made lven combust in anger! Red-faced and exasperated, Iven turned to look at Seth and said, "Mr.Harrison, don't you care? Your fiancee is bullying your best friend!"

Seth answered his friend with a chuckle and looked at Iven with a sly smile in his deep eyes.

"Did she? But isn't she just telling you the truth?"

Iven couldn't believe that he just suffered a crushing defeat in front of Seth and against a woman too! Iven hated himself for even trying to break Melody and Seth apart, although he had done it teasingly.

Alas! The two were just too affectionate and devoted to each other, and all of Ilven's plans backfired on him! Without a shoulder to rely on, lven could only lean on the only other person beside him.

"Axel, these two people are bullying me" Iven cried out.
