Evan didn't know that Ainsley already planned to take Finley to her house and registered him to be under her care.
If he knew, he would never make such a proposal.
Like heck! His one and only heir was going to elope with someone else due to his 'smart' plan. His liver would hurt a lot and he would definitely cry blood.
Feeling glad to hear the baby's response, Evan calmly answered.
"You just need to put yourself as the betting chip. If you lose, when you're of legal age to work, you shall work at my family– "
The man paused before continuing in a rush.
"Of course, the job won't be inappropriate or something..."
Evan made sure not to make another misunderstanding, afraid that Jake and Finley would think of him as a paedophile!
"Owkay, I'll accept it." Ainsley didn't think much and immediately accepted the proposal. After all, she was confident that no one could beat her in gambling!
After both parties agreed with the terms, Jake stepped up once more and coughed.
"Which number do you want to choose, Godtoddler?" Jake asked Ainsley first this time because last time, he let Evan pick the number before Ainsley.
Elated, the baby grinned as she raised her tiny fingers.
"Number foul! (four)."
"Okay. And you, Ev– I mean, Max?" Jake looked at Evan with sweats dripping down his back.
He almost called this guy by his real name! That's close!
"...." Evan paused for a bit, letting Percival see the future once more.
[Evan, the future shows that the winning number is number four. That baby really is controlling the winning probability in her hands!]
Now, Percival was sure that no matter what number they chose based on the future they saw, it would always lean to Ainsley's selected number.
There were really no other ways to win. It's a dead end.
Sighing, Evan resigned to fate and nodded at Jake. "I shall choose number 2 this time."
"Okay, I'll roll the dice now." Jake casually tossed the tiny dice to the table, and in mere seconds, the result came out once more.
One could immediately see four black dots on the dice's surface.
Number 4! It's another win for Ainsley!
Evan wasn't surprised this time, and he kept his poker face, but Jake already gasped.
This...is this possible? To win against Evan, who could see the future two times in a row…
Did Evan lose his fairy's ability or something, ah?! Or maybe he purposely lost to this baby to make her happy?
But it shouldn't be…
Evan is always stern and won't purposely lose just to please others!
Jake was puzzled by the result. Evan lost again so easily, and this time, he even had to hand over his only son, Finley, to be at Ainsley's beck and call.
Wouldn't that be humiliating?
But with Evan's ability to see the future, shouldn't he be able to predict whether he will lose or not? If he will lose, why would he give Finley away as a betting chip?
Jake couldn't put his finger on this matter, but he could do nothing as he watched Evan pushing another 5 one-coloured crystals before dragging Finley to his place.
"I lost. As per our agreement, Fi– Neil, my son, will be at your beck and call from now on." Evan tossed Finley to Ainsley's chair as he looked at his son with a stern gaze.
"Neil, you don't have any objections, right?"
Finley instantly rolled his eyes at his dad's words.
What objection...you purposely set this up, ah. How can I object? It's not like I'm losing a deal here, anyway.
Finley peeked at Ainsley and silently nodded.
If he could stay around the baby more often using another identity, that wouldn't be bad…
"I...I don't have objections, dad. I-I shall accept your arrangements." Finley's acting was finally activated. The boy bit his lips and looked at his dad with reluctant eyes.
It was as if he's trying to protest, but didn't dare because he didn't want to disappoint his father. Even when what his father did break his heart, he swallowed his grievances and kept silent.
When Ainsley see how the arrogant and naughty boy suddenly turned into a meek lamb, her heart ached once more.
Ah, Neil, my boy, you're so pitiful.
Don't worry, if your dad doesn't want you because you might be his bastard son or something, this auntie here still wants you and your amazing ability!
All sorts of soap opera dramas played itself in Ainsley's mind. The baby quietly tugged Finley's sleeve and pulled him closer to stand near her sofa.
"It's owkay, Neil. We are friends, right? I won't bully you...and you can still follow your dad back home if you want to!"
If you don't want to, you can also come to my family.
Ainsley didn't say the last part, but Finley could guess what she wanted to say. His heart couldn't help but flutter for the baby's kindness.
Ain, you're really too kind. You want to take care of a kid you just met for a few hours…
Little did Finley know that Ainsley actually eyed his time-control ability. And of course, since Finley also looked rather mysterious, she's simply interested.
If she could have another pretty boy around her, why not? Looking at this boy's dad, Uncle Max, the boy would surely inherit his handsome genes too.
"Let's get along well, Neil!" Ainsley laughed as she shook the boy's hand.
"Hum. Likewise…" Finley suddenly blushed, showing his 'shy' side, completely unlike his bratty attitude earlier.
The atmosphere suddenly turned weird around the two kids until Jake's eyes hurt.
"Alright, alright, let's continue the game?" Jake hurriedly cut the kids' conversation.
Heck. These kids are really something, ah!
