My Beloved Has Risen from Death's Embrace novel Chapter 268

"I'll take this one."

Orion handed the tag to her, but Xanthea swiftly moved past to grab another one, "No need, I'll do it myself, 6, 6, 6 points?!"

Her eyes widened in disbelief at the score she had drawn.

Laughter erupted from the crowd, led by Isabella and Olivia.

"Xanthea, didn't you just say Mr. Lockwood was out of luck? Looks like yours is even worse!"

Xanthea frowned, thinking that drawing 6 points was bad enough, but then she saw Orion slowly reveal his tag, 1 point?!

She looked up, shocked, meeting his deep, dark eyes and understood the message they held.

—"I just wanted to save the best for you."

"Ahhhhhhh."

Instant regret washed over Xanthea; she was almost burst to tears.

[LOL Xan, that's what you get for breaking up the ship! Breaking the ship brings bad luck, see your karma in action!]

[Am I the only one who thinks Xan was jealous because Mr. Lockwood drew for Isabella, so she insisted on drawing herself?]

[Ahhhh, Mr. Lockwood draws 5 points for another woman, and a 1 for Xanthea. Man, your luck is really saying you're head over heels for her!]

[Xanthea's about to be ganged up on, Mr. Lockwood's gonna be heartbroken, gonna be frantic! Can't wait to see it!]

"Xanthea 6 points, Isabella 5 points, Olivia 4 points, Rachel 3 points, Nelson 2 points, Martin 1 point!"

"Let the games begin!"

"Miss, maybe you should just hand over your tag, save us the trouble. You can't fight us all."

"Just do it, why waste words?"

Olivia had been waiting for a chance to get back at Xanthea and seized the opportunity without hesitation, rushing forward to knock her down and grab her tag!

However, before she could reach her, Xanthea shouted, "Wait, you're targeting the wrong person. The first one you should be going after is Martin!"

"What? You must be joking!"

"Why would anyone bother with Martin? He's only got 1 point!"

Martin chimed in, "Yeah Xan, are you kidding me?"

"Of course not, have you forgotten? There's only one winner in this game. Who do you think it will be? Definitely Martin. He's an Olympic swimming champion, his stamina and persistence are beyond any of us. Even if you take me down, and then turn on each other, you'll still lose to him in the end. All the points you fought for will just end up making him the victor!"
