Dustin and Julian quickly positioned themselves in front of the platform. Each clutched ten iron marbles in their hands.
Julian wore a sly grin.
This game was his specialty. He had mastered it to perfection. Not only did he plan to thoroughly humiliate Dustin, but he also aimed to strip him of his money and dignity in front of everyone.
The amused expressions on Henry and the others’ faces were a testament to their unwavering faith in Julian’s skills.
“Let the game begin!” someone shouted and signaled the start of the game.
The participants had to throw all ten marbles within the allotted time. Scores would then be tallied, and final points would determine the winner and payout.
Dustin did not bother with the larger holes on the platform. His gaze was fixed solely on the smallest one.
The hole was barely wide enough to fit an iron marble. It was incredibly difficult to hit.
But it was the highest-scoring target. It would score ten points if one succeeded.
Dustin casually tossed his first marble. It soared straight toward the smallest hole with precision and drew a smile from Allison as she watched it approach its target.
Whoosh!
But just as it was about to drop in, an Onyx Iron marble hurtled from the side and collided with Dustin’s marble. It knocked it away at the last moment.
Clang!
The collision sent both marbles flying in opposite directions.
Dustin’s shattered upon impact, and the fragments scattered across the platform, while Julian’s remained intact and landed neatly in a mid-sized hole.
“Julian scores five points! Fustin scores zero!” the scorekeeper announced.
Dustin frowned. “Interfering in the game is allowed?”
“Of course. What’s the fun without a little challenge?” Julian’s grin widened. He was clearly pleased with his first-round victory.
He exchanged a knowing look with Henry, and both men smirked in sinister satisfaction.
Dustin glanced at his remaining marbles. He then looked at the ones in Julian’s hand.
At first glance, they looked identical, but anyone with expertise would notice the subtle differences in material.
“Fustin, you’ve got this!” Allison called out to encourage Dustin.
Dustin responded with a soft smile and picked up a second marble.
Seeing this, Julian prepared himself to repeat the same trick.

The readers' comments on the novel: My Aloof Sisters Asked for My Forgiveness
Is the story not coming in again. It's been days now and no new chapter...
Nice one...
Shitty ending but considering overall I give the book .05 out of 5 stars. You used the same plot to many times, too many translation errors, even at the end you screwed around with the font and color because who knows why, the title had nothing to do with the story do I need to continue...
Just move to the enemy and let the snipers kill him for you Dustin. Use him as your shield easy peasy Mac n cheesey....
Tell hell hall said get his ass out here now or I will kill everyone here you have 10 seconds to do what I said. 10,9,8,7,6,5,4,3,2,1,0 to late...
Why does Dustin still think he owes his adoptive dad a debt? Sure he saved his life and help raise, taught martial arts etc... till his death but Dustin stayed on and put his life at risk and invested his time and money into his 5 daughters up until they came across their biological brother and kicked him out. Treat him like a thieving dog and have attempted numerous times to kill him. He finally showed some common sense by imprisoning the 1 sister and killing her cousin yet he lets the others slide. With his status and power I would have already killed them off or at the very least taken them and imprisoned them like the 1 and tortured the mom into spilling everything she knows and getting my rightful inheritance, but the author has to drag it out....
He said to mutilate the body and burn it why not start with beheading it and taking it back to show the city and place it as an offering to his family? That's what a great MC would have done....
Lame you change the name of the characters and use the same ole trope how many time are you going to use it? First it was the Langley sisters, then the McCall girl I believe this is the second or third time with Shawna. You need new material author...
Oh my not the weak who the MC showed mercy by not killing him because of some honor bound duty to a dead guy makes a comeback and forces the MC into a corner before the mc finally kills him arc 🤣...
🤣 now this is better just because I took her virginity doesn't mean I'm responsible for her. Love it....
