The Billionaire Alpha’s Contract Lover

Chapter 1758

Taya had a good night’s sleep and felt pretty good the next day, not as nervous when facing the game.

The eighth round of the game was different from the previous ones.

There was an extra screen on the wall with a deck of 54 cards.

“Two players, please pick any card now,” the voice said.

Taya and Johnny didn’t know what to do, so they looked at each other.

“Maybe we have to flip the same cards and pick more cards,” Johnny suggested.

Taya agreed and they both went to the screen to select a card.

Taya chose an Ace and Johnny chose a 2.

There were four of each card, so the odds were slightly better, but Erebus didn’t play by the rules.

After they made their selections, all 54 cards on the screen flipped over, and the original order was instantly scrambled and kept rolling in all directions.

“Two players, please draw the card you selected earlier, the number and suit must match,” the voice said.

Taya had carefully noted the suit when making her selection, but with 54 cards, how could they pick the right one in five minutes?

“It’s a blind pick no matter what, just go with your gut and pick one,” Johnny said.

His calm demeanor seemed to rub off on Taya, and she wasn’t as nervous anymore. Johnny stood by, ready to take the punishment if Taya chose wrong. Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.

He had promised to help her make it to the ninth round.

Only then would she have a chance to see the man in black.

If Griffon was still alive, he would definitely come to see Taya.

Unless he didn’t want her anymore.

Johnny didn’t tell Taya about this possibility, he just let her choose first.

Taya stared at the constantly rolling cards on the screen, trying to find a pattern, but there was none.

The cards were all randomly rolling, and with the same back color, how could she know which one it was?

She was very anxious, and when she was anxious, her lower abdomen couldn’t stop hurting, but she had no choice but to endure it.

“Just pick one, don’t be afraid,” Johnny said, grabbing her hand.

Taya glanced at him and said, “You go first.”

Johnny shook his head and said, “Ladies first.”

With the ticking countdown, Taya gritted her teeth and clicked on one of the face–down cards.

After she clicked, the card quickly flipped over.

When she saw the number on it, she remembered Griffon before he left.

He said, “Wait for me.”

She only now realized how difficult the road back was.

Taya stared at the 3 on the screen, closed her eyes in resignation.

She quietly waited for death to come, but her wrist was suddenly grabbed by Johnny. /‘Don’t take the punishment for me!” she shouted, but she didn’t have the strength, and he pulled her away.

Taya rushed forward but hit the glass door.

A transparent door descended between them, followed by a red line aimed at Johnny’s chest-

“No!” Taya pounded on the glass, screaming his name.

But the red line, without any emotion, pierced Johnny’s heart.

“Johnny!” His blood splattered on the glass, blurring Taya’s vision.

She cried and reached out, using her sleeve to wipe the glass, but how could she clean the blood inside?

Taya knelt down and looked at Johnny lying in a pool of blood.

The Johnny who had just smiled at her was now as pale as death, with no color in his face.

Seeing him like this, Taya cried uncontrollably. “Johnny, you said that after the eighth round, you would ask me a question, you haven’t asked yet, how can you leave first?” Hearing Taya’s crying, Johnny slowly smiled. “I asked you last night while you were asleep.”

Taya clenched her fists and hit the glass door. “I didn’t hear it, Johnny, I didn’t hear it!” “Get up and ask me again, okay?” The blood stained Johnny’s white shirt, but he smiled. “It doesn’t matter…”

“It does matter, Johnny, get up and ask me again, I won’t sleep, I’ll answer your question properly.”

Johnny looked at Taya, who was crying with red eyes, and smiled again. “I left some food in the drawer for you…”

When Taya heard this, she cried even harder. “Johnny…”

Before Johnny closed his eyes, he moved his lips again.

He was speaking silently, but Taya didn’t see it, as the blood on the glass blocked her view.

Taya lunged to ask again, but a white wall descended, forever blocking her view…
