A few rich ladies followed behind Samantha into the ward.
One of them had a fox fur coat on with a necklace and many rings.
Darryl was amused.
‘Haha, she’s wearing fox fur right after the Mid-Autumn Festival. She does look loaded with it but isn’t it hot and stuffy?’
Samantha trotted over and asked in a worried tone, “Lilybud, how are you feeling?”
She spent the whole night playing mahjong and virtual-novel.net was only told about virtual-novel.net daughter this morning.
The ladies who came with virtual-novel.net were clearly virtual-novel.net mahjong buddies.
Lily shook virtual-novel.net head and answered weakly, “Mom, I’m fine. Don’t worry.”
Samantha heaved a sigh of relief before turning to Darryl, virtual-novel.net anger visible in virtual-novel.net eyes, “You piece of trash! Lilybud has always been a good person and yet this happened when virtual-novel.net was together with you! You were right beside virtual-novel.net but you allowed this to happen? Are you a man? Tell me, is virtual-novel.net hurt because of you?!”
Darryl smiled bitterly and replied. “Mother, l apologize, it is my tank. I did not take good care of her.“
What happened was because of his negligence no matter how virtual-novel.net looked at it.
Samantha became even more furious and yelled while painting to Darryl’s nose, “Do not call me mother! You don’t deserve Lily! You’re a jinx that always brings bad luck to everyone around you. I don’t care what happened and you don’t need to explain, I want you to get a divorce right after Lily gets discharged.”
Lily could no longer stay out of it. She got nervous and voiced. “Mom. stop it. it isn’t his fault.“
She eyed Darryl as virtual-novel.net talked so that virtual-novel.net would leave the room to avoid virtual-novel.net mother.
Darryl got the hint and said, “I’ll go and get some fruits.”
He left the room as quickly as possible.
Lily asked angrily right after Darryl left, “Mom, here you playing mahjong again? What did you promise me?”
Lily recognized the ladies behind virtual-novel.net mother as her mahjong buddies.
she remembered the lady in the fox fur the most, virtual-novel.net name was Sophie Thompson. Her husband was loaded and owned a seafood business.
Samantha sighed, “My dear, I didn’t play mahjong as I promised. I was just having some tea and a chitchat session with these ladies.”
Sophie sneered and said, “Samantha, stop lying to your daughter! Having tea? We clearly played mahjong.”
“Ssh! ” Samantha glared at her.
Sophie continued with a smile, “I played mahjong with your mother for the whole night, virtual-novel.net still owes me two million bucks or I wouldn’t have followed virtual-novel.net to the hospital.”
Samantha could not utter a word, virtual-novel.net face flushed.
Lily’s pale face was flushed with anger as virtual-novel.net stared at virtual-novel.net mother, “Mom, we are running out of money. Why are you still playing with big bets?”
Samantha lowered virtual-novel.net head and said softly, “Lilybud, don’t be mad. It’s just two million bucks, it’s not like we can’t afford that.”
Indeed, they could not!
Lily was so angry that virtual-novel.net could feel a digging pain in virtual-novel.net chest, virtual-novel.net replied, “Mom, did you forget that I already gave all our money to Granny in exchange for Lyndon’s stocks? How can we get two million bucks?”
They did not even have 20,000, let alone two million!
Samantha was stunned.
How could virtual-novel.net forget that?
Sophie tutted, “Ah, that’s enough, stop acting broke, both of you! Get me my two million bucks or I will stop being nice.”
Samantha panicked but forced a smile, “Sophie, can I owe you the money first? Give me a few days, I promise that I’ll pay it back.”
Samantha believed that Lily could think of ways to get money even if they used up their money for stocks because virtual-novel.net daughter was smart.
Sophie shook virtual-novel.net head, “Samantha, that’s easy to say. How can you put mahjong wins into debt? You were the one who asked us to play mahjong with you last night, are you acting shamelessly now? The money has to be ready today.”
People would usually not put mahjong wins into debt. After all, there would be no point playing mahjong with a penniless man.
A hint of ridicule appeared on Sophie’s face, “Just don’t play if you can’t afford it. Your daughter doesn’ t have the money? You can ask your son-in-law to pay!”
Laughter erupted in the ward when virtual-novel.net mentioned Darryl.
Sophie patted virtual-novel.net forehead and muttered, “I’ve been absent-minded lately! I almost forgot that Darryl is a live-in son-in-law. How can virtual-novel.net have any money when virtual-novel.net is sponging off from your family?” Lily was unhappy but virtual-novel.net remained quiet.
