Genius Wife Is Naughty Again novel Chapter 457

Chapter 457

Although this man had an ugly scar on his face, it didn’t stop the gamblers from taking a liking toward him. To them, the man standing in front of them right now was their god; the presence that they longed for. Because of his arrival, the crowd started cheering.“It’s Ace! Master Ace looks really good today!”“This is my first time getting so close to Ace! I must get him to teach me a few gambling techniques later on!”“He’s really a godly presence. Although Master Ace has a scar on his face, he’s perfect in my heart!”“Now that Ace is here, that little girl will probably lose so badly that she starts crying!”“Haha! I guess we will see what happens later on!”“Master Ace is the best in my heart!”“Even so, Master Ace is known as the second best player in the gambling world. He still isn’t the best though.”“Tch! I don’t care about that. Ace is the best! That Jasmine is probably just a gimmick anyway. We don’t even know if she’s dead or not by now.”“Well, you’re not wrong, but I’d die without any regrets if I could watch a match between Ace and Jasmine!”The mutterings went on and on. When the crowd started praising Jasmine, Ace got slightly upset, so he raised his eyebrows disdainfully. Jasmine, the Queen of Gamblers? She’s nothing but a joke to me.Two years ago, she won against him, but she had vanished ever since. Not being able to find her, it meant that he was forever her defeated opponent as he wasn’t able to have a rematch with her.Although Ace had been asking around for news regarding Jasmine these two years, it was as if she had completely vanished from the grid, for he couldn’t get any news about her whereabouts at all.He figured that if Jasmine wasn’t avoiding him simply because she was a coward, then she must have gotten herself framed by someone else and died out there in the wilderness. If it weren’t so, why couldn’t anyone find out any news about her?At this point, the mention of Jasmine’s name only made him feel disgusted.“Who wants to gamble with me?” Ace’s eyelids twitched slightly as he spoke, his attitude domineering and his tone inducing fear in the others. After all, Ace’s gambling skills were ranked number two in the gambling world and many wanted to bet against him. However, he never managed to find anyone worthy to be his opponent, and he had already gotten tired of trying to find one.From the start, he had always had a clear goal, which was to defeat Jasmine, who had disappeared a long time ago.When the guard noticed Ace walking over, he immediately got up and greeted him reverently. “Master Ace! It’s her!” Then, he pointed at Janet, who was sitting on the couch.Ace looked at the guard. “You lost?”When the guard heard that, he started wiping his sweat using a tissue and his expression was one of uneasiness as he answered with a low voice, “She tricked me.”Upon hearing this, the man sitting on the couch got upset. Mason got up and rolled up his sleeves as he smirked and gave the guard a taunting look. “You’re saying that you got tricked?” Janet obviously won with her own ability.“It was an accident!” The guard glared at Janet with dissatisfaction. “Now that Master Ace is here, I believe that luck won’t be with you this time!”He was certain that the girl couldn’t possibly win more than three times in a row. Now that they had just played for three rounds, he was sure that she would definitely lose from then on! He really wanted to see if that little girl could still smile later on.In response, Janet chuckled lightly before she said stiffly, “Didn’t Master Ace lose to a woman once? Maybe he might lose to me as well.”Immediately, Ace clenched his fists together as he stared at the girl in front of him coldly.On the other hand, Janet seemed rather indifferent and languid. Although Ace couldn’t see her face underneath her mask, she looked somewhat familiar to him.At the sight of Ace’s lack of movement, Mason smirked before he asked teasingly, “Mesmerized by her?” Does he even know whose woman is he staring at? How dare this Ace guy stare at her like that. When Ace heard that, his expression darkened, and his scar made his face appear even more menacing. With a frosty look and an unfathomable emotion in his eyes, he stared straight at the girl as he said, “I hope that you can still smile later!”
