Chapter 677
Jimmy was utterly shocked.
Riley drank to hide her emotions too.
What on earth was happening?
“Do you like Cyn? Mitchell decided to address the matter directly.
“I do,” Joshua admitted, “Even though she rejected me before, I’ll keep liking her. She’s
the person I want to protect for the rest of my life,”
Cynthia knew Joshua was doing this intentionally, but she could not say anything about it.
“Well, it’s obviously too late for you!” Riley casually retorted.
Joshua looked at her.
The stunningly beautiful Riley wanted to help Matthew confess, so she suggested, “Let’s
continue the game. This time, we’ll be playing Truth or Dare. Those who can’t fulfill the
challenge have to drink three glasses ”
“Let’s po” Jimmy had been waiting for this. Fortunately, he had practiced a few tricks to

“Let’s use poker cards,” Jimmy said, as it was the only type he had practiced, “Hearts,
diamonds, clubs, spades, with the king bring the highest and the ace of spades as the
smallest, then 2, 3, and so on, is that alay?”
“Sounds good.”
“No problem.”
“I’m not participating, and only the five of you will be playing.” Jimmy said in advance.
No one objected
Jimmy shuffled the cards in front of everyone, then dealt them one by one, explaining the
rules, “The smallest cardholder can choose between answering a truth or performing a
dare, while the biggest cardholder can ask questions or dare the smallest
one.
“Let’s begin.”
In the first round, Matthew had the smallest card, the four of hearts, and Riley had the
biggest card, the Queen of clubs.
Matthew knew what they wanted to play, but he wanted to take things step by step and at
least lay some groundwork before confessing. With this in mind, he said, “Truth”
Upon hearing this, Cynthia immediately perked up. She had not forgotten Matthew said he
had someone he liked, so why did he ask her to pretend to be his girlfriend and
accompany him home for the New Year?
Cynthia wanted to know the answer, so she said, “Riley, ask Captain about the person he
likes.”
Riley gave her a thumbs up in response.
However, Riley already knew who Matthew liked. Hence, she asked, “You said you
confessed to the person you like jokingly. How did she react?”
Cynthia was confused about why Riley asked this question when she had already agreed
to hers.
“She thought I was joking. Matthew told the truth, ‘She didn’t take it seriously.“”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Why didn’t you confess seriously?” Cynthia blurted out without realizing the implications
behind her question.
Riley, Jimmy, and others had a knowing look on their faces and pretended to agree.
“That’s right, Captain. Maybe if you confessed seriously, you’d already be in a relationship
with her.”
What’s her name?”
“Do we know her?”
“Where is she from?”
They bombarded him with questions, like interrogating a suspect.
Matthew smiled handsomely and raised an eyebrow playfully. “Do you really want to
know?”
“Yes,” Cynthia and others answered honestly.
“The first round has already ended,” Matthew said indifferently, “When you guys get the
biggest card, and I get the smallest, then I’ll answTE.
Cynthia was annoyed and glanced at Jimmy.
