A Cue for Love novel Chapter 870

Chapter 870 The Casino Part Two

Since it was time to show their hands, the fifth card was finally revealed.

As the croupier took away all the chips that Caleb had pushed in front of her, she remarked, “Sir, I’m sorry, but you have lost. Now that you have run out of chips, I have to ask you to vacate your seat.”

As the words rolled off the croupier’s tongue, her eyes glistened with obvious ridicule, as if she was telling Caleb to get lost now that he had run out of money.

Suddenly, Caleb’s mind snapped when he saw the look in her eye, causing him to remain in front of the gambling table.

Even though Anna was mourning the money he lost, she realized that it was more important to get him home. Thus, she persuaded, “Caleb, now that you have lost the money, can you come home already?”

“Stop it!” Caleb vented all his fury on Anna. “Are you jealous of me making money to care for our family? Must you only be happy when I lose everything I have? All this while, you have looked down upon me and think that I’m not as good as you. Therefore, when you see me winning, you resort to such methods to break my lucky streak!”

The moment he finished, Caleb gave Anna a forceful slap without minding where they were.

Struck into a daze, Anna burst out in silent tears.

Looking at the pathetic couple, the croupier showed no pity at all. Instead, she sneered, “However you want to deal with this as a couple, you should do it at home. Please don’t waste our time as we’re an entertainment establishment.”

Anna swallowed her anger and tugged at Caleb’s sleeve.

“Let’s go home, all right?”

The latter didn’t respond.

Faced with his refusal, Anna continued to plead, “I beg of you, come home with me, please.”

Caleb felt that he had lost due to bad luck, and it was entirely because Anna had jinxed him.
