Tonight, Adam had been losing nonstop, luck wasnt on his side, and the cold lines on his handsome face made it clear he wasnt pleased.

Carly, who was seated beside him, was studying her cards.

Beside her lay a fruit platter filled with fresh seasonal fruits.

She reached out with her delicate hand, picked a plump purple grape, and peeled off its skin.

Then, she held the glistening, juicy flesh to Adams lips.

Without taking his eyes off his cards, Adam opened his mouth and ate the grape Carly offered.

She nestled closer to him, her movements soft and graceful, catching the seed he spat out in her palm without hesitation.

Carly resembled a perfect wife, attending to Adams every need.
