One Card Game, His Total DownfallChapter 1

My husband’s so-called “female bro” lost the game and was told to pick a man in the room, sit face-to-face, and shake for ten seconds.

Without hesitation, she chose my husband.

“This position—he and I know it best, don’t we?”

I froze, thinking she was joking.

Before I could speak, Chloe Carter lifted her skirt and sat right on my husband’s lap.

Seeing my face darken, she swayed her body and explained:

“Oh, the night before you two got married, he was drunk and restless. I helped him out.”

“Relax, it was just fooling around, nothing actually happened. Otherwise, do you think you would’ve gotten to marry him the next day?”

I let out a cold laugh. “Of course.”

Then I raised my hand and slapped her across the face.

“You should have told me sooner. I wouldn’t have wanted a filthy cucumber someone else already touched!”

…

The private room instantly fell silent.

Ethan Miller, who had been resting his hand on her waist, abruptly pulled back.

He shielded her in his arms and glared at me furiously:

“Sophia Harris, are you insane?!”

“Chloe already explained—she only helped because it was an emergency! What are you jealous about now?”
