Hilda reacted not because she was trembling with fear, but because she was quite amused by such a challenging bet.
"Ah, I prefer to play dice," said Hilda. She put down her cards, still put down her cards again, and still not a good card. Then she took another burn card.
"Oh, you're better at that kind of gambling, aren't you?" said Jane. "Hm, we can try next time. We must be very entertained by your skills."
"Haha, like a circus animal?" Hilda said.
Silence, the women with bright red lipstick looked at each other. Of the women Hilda and Jane seemed to have the most unfavorable relationship.
"Err, Mia! It's your turn," said Kimberly. She didn't like being in a tense situation. Even though she's been around and acquainted with the people here for a long time, she's actually a bitch when it comes to fighting and arguing.
"Me? I don't know, I was thinking about it," said the woman named Mia. "Give full support to me after this. You are all supporters of the economy of this country, if you give good aspirations about me then it will be easier for me to rise to become the leader of this country after this."
This woman named Mia is indeed more diplomatic, she tends to focus more on her career. But even though she looks like a safe person to approach, who would have thought this woman was a woman that Jane didn't dare to approach.
There is something.
"Okay, now it's Jane's turn," Kimberly said. She didn't like the current situation. Feels very hot and uncomfortable.
This group always never last long with six members. One member always leaves, and all that's left are Jane, Kimberly, Jessica, Caroline, and Mia.
Now, Jessica must have prepared a plan to trap Hilda. She saw Hilda as a lousy arrogant figure and only good at wasting money for her prestige.
"I love rumors and hot news," Jane said, chuckling with her mouth shut. This gave the others goosebumps a bit. "What if the loser has to make a hot video with a guy and then market it to a porn site?"
Instantly everyone except Hilda and Jane swallowed hard. Caroline adjusted her glasses, she knew Jane was really heartless, but this time not only taking advantage of other people but also destroying that person.
It was outrageous, but Jane did have her own satisfaction when she could do that.
"Jane, aren't you wrong? I-I mean.... isn't that an exaggeration? It's not only about losing or not but also self-respect---"
"Are you afraid of losing?" asked Jane. She knew what Mia was worried about. "If you play right, then you have nothing to be afraid of."
Hilda laughed silently, and for some reason her laugh was cute only because she showed those rows of white and neat teeth.
"Okay, now it's my turn, right?" Hilda interrupted.
"Yes, please."
"Hm, if I... I don't know what to ask for because I'm too rich."
Instantly the other five women almost choked on their own saliva because they were tickled by Hilda's words. They laughed at Hilda's words, which sounded very narcissistic.
"Yes, yes, yes, too rich madam. Just say what you want, we are not poor enough to refuse your request," Jessica replied. She started to like this moment, the moment where she would also play pranks on Hilda if Hilda lost.
"Okay, I'm just asking you to do what I say if I win. How about it?"
Jane who listened but didn't look at Hilda then narrowed her eyes looking suspicious. She felt that there was a hidden meaning behind those words. "Can you be more specific? like we did earlier, all of them propose things that refer to one wish."
"Is that so?" said Hilda pretending to realize what Jane said. "But I think what Jessica asked for earlier was also similar to what I asked for. Even what I asked for was much simpler. I will not make you bound by this provision for a long time, you only need to grant my wish once. consider it paid off, how?
The others looked at each other, conferring in their gazes. Even though they don't make a sound, they are sure that they are of the same mind. Therefore, they nodded in agreement.
"Fine if that's what you want," said Jane. She nodded with that haughty face. "Let's continue the game."
Now Hilda doesn't have much hope, so far she has only gotten cards that are not good. Not like Jane, and the others who got good cards. But this time Kimberly seemed to be out of luck, but at least it wasn't her that was certain to lose.
The last card dealt. This time everyone again gets one card. Everyone glanced at each other.
Jane smiled lopsidedly, followed by Jessica who looked happy. Caroline remained flat-faced, while Kimberly's expression was inexplicable.
Hilda snorted softly, her face sour.
"I won," said Jessica. She laid down the cards, the arrangement was very good. One suit of the same card all on her. This is a very beautiful possibility. All the cards are of a spade. Even one of them was a card that Hilda threw away.
"Haha, you're too sure." Caroline put down her card arrangement which made Jessica's lips pursed in displeasure. "Four of a kind."
As Caroline had said, the cards were of that kind. It was confirmed that Caroline's card was worth more than Jessica's.
Mia and Kimberly look normal, their cards are neither bad nor great. They feel lucky because at least their cards are not the worst cards.
Cold sweat began to trickle down the temples of these expensively dressed beautiful women. Jane put down the card.
"Straight Flush," the woman said looking very satisfied. "I'm sure the last card arrangement isn't better than Jessica's. Gosh, sorry if my request is too much."
Hilda was shaking, her breath caught. She's like someone who suddenly hard to breathe. She looked very doubtful and afraid to show her cards. It was absolutely certain that her card was not good, because she had not received a good card.
