Chapter 539:

Allison looked down at her nonchalantly. “Not much. If you’re feeling worn out, I could help you flip the cards. Maybe I could hit that 100% accuracy for you.”

“No need.” Amor’s face paled drastically.

She tried to regain her calm, but Kylo’s looming presence was overwhelming.

Without glancing up, she sensed the armed guards lurking in the shadows.

Yet Allison remained unperturbed. She returned to the table, flipped two cards, and unsurprisingly, they formed a pair.

But she didn’t stop there. Under the astonished gazes of the crowd, she swiftly and decisively flipped over all the cards on the table.

Each pair was correct, without a single misstep.

No one present was foolish; everyone understood the implications of Allison’s actions.

Andres’ face turned ashen.

“Sir… Something doesn’t seem right…”

After all, the cards had been brought in by Amor. To know all the card faces beforehand, the deck had to be tampered with! Kylo crossed his legs, his black leather shoes reflecting the cold light of the crystal chandelier.

His gaze remained unwavering. “Have the men ready. We’ll act soon.”

“Yes.” Andres stepped back.

For a moment, the only sound was the soft rustle of Allison flipping the cards.

She quickly revealed most of the pairs before stopping. She spread her hands wide.

“It seems some players are being cautious, tampering with eighty percent of the cards to ensure a win without making it too obvious.”

Allison clapped her hands together and turned to Amor.

“No wonder you’re the top player in the global casino circuit. Truly impressive.”

Her words left the audience in stunned silence. Allison then turned her attention to Kylo.

“Kylo, I trust you’ll deal with this appropriately?”

Kylo’s expression darkened. “Cheating won’t fly in this casino.” As he interlaced his gloved fingers, a chilling aura settled over the room.

Amor’s face turned ghostly pale. “Kylo, please, this isn’t what it looks like…”

But Kylo raised a hand, cutting her off. “It doesn’t matter. We’ll uncover the truth.”

Amor’s resolve crumbled, the fight draining from her as despair took hold.

Meanwhile, Allison turned to Kellan, stretching lazily.

“Mr. Lloyd, did you remember to bring the lighter?”

A sharp “snap” echoed through the room, breaking the tense silence.

The golden lighter’s flame flickered to life, casting an ethereal glow in their eyes.

Without Allison needing to say a word, Kellan had already lit it for her.
