Reviello's Wrong Bride Something she must do
Eleonor is lying in her new hotel room, wrapped in the sheets. Since then, Andrea's innocent question has been gnawing at her throat.(…) “You're not pregnant, are you?” When was the last time she had her period? At least, Eleonor is pretty sure she hasn't in the past six weeks. Six weeks. When she thinks about it… none of her nights with Giovanni were protected. Of course, she wasn't on the pill, too. Honestly, she hadn't thought about it until this moment.But she can't be pregnant.She places her hand on her tummy and closes her eyes tightly.The engagement party is two days away… she can't worry about this right now. She needs to stick to the plan… she needs to act!But before she gives Emily what she truly deserves… there's something she must do.ㅤA knock on the door draws her attention. Eleonor slaps her face twice and gets up, heading towards the door and opening it without checking who's on the other side. Thankfully, it's a brunette girl who welcomes you with open arms, no
Reviello's Wrong Bride SERENDIPITY CASINO
SERENDIPITY CASINO is the reason it all started. Thanks to her father's debt, Eleonor's fate was completely sealed to that of Giovanni Reviello. Over two years have passed since the fateful day when she agreed to marry in Emily's place and took her sister's misfortune upon herself. So, nothing better than starting a revenge at the rotten root.That's why she's dressed appropriately in the greatest gown and most expensive jewelry that sparkles in the elegance of the largest casino in the Colorado entire state. Her whole body seems to glow as her high heels hit the black-gold carpet. And as she walks through the slot machines, she tries not to show how dazzled she's by this little-known world.This was her first time entering a casino. She never risked into one of these machines or played a card game for real. While growing up, she used to cherish the moments when her dad taught her the rules of Texas hold'em, and the right moment when she landed on Blackjack. But when she noticed tha
Reviello's Wrong Bride Let's play together
Everything one would expect from a place reserved for extremely wealthy families has there, in the VIP room. There's a glass wall that shows off the whole common area of the casino, but from the other side, it looks like a regular mirror. The color that dominates in the environment is black, which is present on the carpet, on the table, and on the ten comfortable chairs. Red is the other color that’s present, especially on the other walls. Furthermore, the details resemble gold, like those that rule in the casino.When Eleonor sits down in the chair, the dealer is already in his place and is shuffling the entire deck, which has 52 cards without jokers. There are two big security guards in the room with guns at their hips. They don't even blink or look at her directly. They're like walls… walls that carry weapons.Soon, the other guests arrive as well. Eleonor also allowed the three best players in the casino to participate in the game, so that the total number of players reached six.
Reviello's Wrong Bride Your downfall
“Pretty girl? Don't you think you're being too rude to your hostess and the wife of the owner of this place?” Marco crosses his arms, not hiding his dissatisfaction. Eleonor gives a humorless laugh and assures Marco that everything is fine. Anyway, they're just extras… just numbers so as the game wouldn’t be too boring. She can't even be bothered because in her eyes, they're just flies. Her attention is focused only on James Evans and Sebastian Guntbert, her true opponents. “We can start?” The Dealer asks and, upon Eleonor's confirmation, he begins to deal two cards face down to each player. Texas Hold'em rules are pretty simple. To put it as easily as possible, each match is made up of four rounds. The first one is when the Dealer delivers the two cards, and the players decide, based on these two, whether or not they will participate in the game. And to ensure that all players presents are obliged to play at least one of the matches, one player will be forced to call the BIG BLIND
Reviello's Wrong Bride All-in
More matches passed. Eleonor continued acting carelessly, laughing like a fool when she ended up losing with ridiculous hands. The second game was won by Bash, with Two Pair. The pot wasn't amazing in the same way, only raising two hundred thousand dollars, but it didn't cause James a big loss, as he folded early on.The third match again went to James. Eleonor made a point of raising the bet to the maximum, even disputing with the Unknown Guy to see who raised the most. This benefited James, as he had again a Three of a Kind, that beat Unknown's Two Pair and Eleonor's and Bash's One Pair.The fourth game went to the Unknown Guy, who didn't win much from the pot, as the bad hand went to all players. The curious thing is that he didn't seem happy or frustrated with the outcome of the matches, but he always increased when Eleonor did… almost as if her movements were exposed, as clear as day.The fifth game went to Bobby, who, as predicted, didn't stand out in the room. Thereafter, he an
Reviello's Wrong Bride The last card
The last card is yet to come, and Eleonor bet all the chips. Is a Three of a Kind really enough? She feels an intense nausea, a chill that's shaking her whole body. And she even seals her lips tight, fearing that some sigh might give her away.The last card…The Dealer places the last card on the table. 3 of SPADES.A FULL HOUSE!Eleonor is about to faint!Bash shows his cards with an expression of disgust. 9 of HEARTS and J of HEARTS — just One Pair of nines.As expected, he was just bluffing… no, one can't even call that a bluff. He was willing to sacrifice four million dollars for his pride, Eleonor thinks, feeling her blood run cold.Then, she shows her cards… and reveals to everyone the FULL HOUSE. Three 10, and a pair of 3. With that, Eleonor entirely ignores Bash's and Marco's surprised expressions, focusing only on James' expression, which is completely defeated.The man's trembling hands reveal the cards. A pair of 10 and a pair of 5… Two pars.Eleonor doesn't mind looking a
Reviello's Wrong Bride Right decision
Surprise is clear on everyone's faces, but Eleonor doesn't really care, after all… this is something necessary. Even though her stomach is in knots, and she's probably going to throw up the little she’s eaten that day, she needs to keep herself steady, with an unemotional expression and empty eyes. That will solve that problem, won't it? She's the one who must fix it. That way, Giovanni won't be able to say that he took actions that hurt and destroyed her just to protect her. Even when the guard presses the man's hand with extreme ease at the table where they were playing poker a few moments ago, Eleonor doesn't blink. Even though the man is screaming and begging, asking for forgiveness and saying he would give up the money… she doesn't hesitate. “Broke the right thumb.” She orders and, as if she were just ordering ordinary things, like closing the windows or changing the sheets and watering the flowers… the first finger is broken and displaced in an abnormal way. The man's painfu
Reviello's Wrong Bride Evil seed
The whole truth? Eleonor holds her breath, trying not to look affected by those words. She crosses her arms and asks him with an uninterested tone, “What's there for me to know, other than what I've already experienced in my own skin?”“I know you resent me, Eleonor.” James didn't have the heart to face her, so he kept his eyes attached to the floor, “Of course, I don't expect you to forgive me. I just want to say that none of this is your fault…”“Nothing is my fault, of course.” Her voice falters as her heart begins to pound desperately and anxiety settles in every part of her body. “Even if my only sin was being born, even that was beyond my power. I didn't ask to be born, Father. Nor did I ask to have a miserable life in this family…”James finally looks up at her, and his eyes are resentful… no, he's looking at her with pity. Doesn't it seem too late to regret your negligence?“The last thing I would want is for my daughters to have a forced marriage like I did. In the end, I was
