My Aloof Sisters Asked for My Forgiveness



Dustin and Julian quickly positioned themselves in front of the platform. Each clutched ten iron marbles in their hands. Julian wore a sly grin.

This game was his specialty. He had mastered it to perfection. Not only did he plan to thoroughly humiliate Dustin, but he also aimed to strip him of his money and dignity in front of everyone.

The amused expressions on Henry and the others' faces were a testament to their unwavering faith in Julian's skills.

"Let the game begin!" someone shouted and signaled the start of the game.

The participants had to throw all ten marbles within the allotted time. Scores would then be tallied, and final points would determine the winner and payout.

Dustin did not bother with the larger holes on the platform. His gaze was fixed solely on the smallest one.

The hole was barely wide enough to fit an iron marble. It was incredibly difficult to hit.

But it was the highest-scoring target. It would score ten points if one succeeded.

Dustin casually tossed his first marble. It soared straight toward the smallest hole with precision and drew a smile from Allison as she watched it approach its target.

Whoosh!

But just as it was about to drop in, an Onyx Iron marble hurtled from the side and collided with Dustin's marble. It knocked it away at the last moment. Clang!

The collision sent both marbles flying in opposite directions.

Dustin's shattered upon impact, and the fragments scattered across the platform, while Julian's remained intact and landed neatly in a mid-sized hole. "Julian scores five points! Fustin scores zero!" the scorekeeper announced.

Dustin frowned. "Interfering in the game is allowed?"

"Of course. What's the fun without a little challenge?" Julian's grin widened. He was clearly pleased with his first-round victory.

He exchanged a knowing look with Henry, and both men smirked in sinister satisfaction.

Dustin glanced at his remaining marbles. He then looked at the ones in Julian's hand.

At first glance, they looked identical, but anyone with expertise would notice the subtle differences in material.

"Fustin, you've got this!" Allison called out to encourage Dustin.

Dustin responded with a soft smile and picked up a second marble.

Seeing this, Julian prepared himself to repeat the same trick.

Whoosh!

As Dustin released his marble, Julian immediately threw his own.

The marbles collided again.

Bam!

Once again, one of the marbles shattered even more severely than before.

"What?!"

Julian exclaimed. His face was a mask of disbelief.

It was Julian's marble that had shattered upon impact.

Even Henry and his group were stunned.

They had swapped out Dustin's marbles...

The two materials were vastly different. How could the harder one have shattered instead?

They could not make sense of it.

Henry shot a fierce glance at the person next to him.

The person shrank back in uncertainty.

He had definitely swapped them...

Could it be that he had picked up the wrong one?novelbin

With everyone watching, he could not afford to be unfair.

The crowd was once again taken aback.

Ten points...

Ten points... even under these circumstances?

Dustin picked up his third marble.

Dustin smirked faintly as he sent the third marble sailing through the air.
