Chapter 559
A flash of light sparked through Elaine’s eyes!
She had been worried that she wouldn’t be able to find an easy mark after Summer left the country, soshe was thankful that Hannah had found one for her!
Besides, she assumed that the easy mark was richer than Summer because she could only win severalthousand from Summer, but this lady lost ten times the money in a day!
She loved playing mahjong with people who had deep pockets but poor skills. She could make a minifortune from the game!novelbin
If she joined forces with Hannah and agreed on some secret codes, they could win for sure!
With this thought in mind, she was overjoyed and excited!
Money meant everything to her to the point she would definitely replace her parents with money!
She was on the edge of her seat when she heard Hannah’s proposal!
Seeing the excitement in Elaine’s eyes, Hannah hurriedly said in a low voice, “Let’s rehearse our littlesecret codes first. While we are at the table, we’ll look at each other’s gestures. We touch our nosewhen we want dots; we point our fingers when we want bamboo; we purse our lips when we wantcharacters. We can work together and win big!”
Elaine immediately agreed happily and said, “Okay, then. Let’s play with your friends and see!”
Hannah pasted a wide smile and said, “Deal! She is very rich though. She lives in a Thompson Firstvilla. When can we go?”
“Let’s go right now! Take a ride in my BMW!”
When they got in the car, Hannah couldn’t help but smirk coldly as she looked at Elaine’s eagerexpression.
In order to create a trap for Elaine, she had hired two con women and spent a bit lavishly to rent theThompson First villa. Her goal was simple. She wanted to win all of Elaine’s money and property,leaving her with nothing!
Of course, Elaine didn’t know that she was walking right into the trap. She was in the midst of theexcitement to bully the so-called easy mark.
While Elaine and Hannah were on their way to Thompson First, Charlie and Jacob arrived at Jacob’salma mater, Bell Height University.
Charlie was a little surprised as he looked at the majestic gate tower carved in white marble at theentrance and the arch with the name of the school written on it—National Bell Height University.
He never imagined that his father-in-law, who always looked so useless and inept, graduated from anivy league!
In fact, during his era, a university student was scarce compared to now, let alone one from a famousuniversity…
Jacob sighed at Charlie’s surprised gaze and asked, “Why? You don’t think that I look like someonewho has gone to college, do you?”
Charlie nodded blankly. “Dad, you honestly don’t look like you’ve graduated college…”
Jacob sighed again, but this time, there was a proud light on his face. “Back then, I was quite popular inschool, and my academic tracks were excellent. I would have furthered my studies up north, but I didn’twant to be too far away from home.”
Charlie chuckled and asked curiously, “What happened later? Why did you become a househusbandafter graduating from a prestigious university?”
Charlie looked at Jacob and felt that it was rather interesting that he, a dignified university graduate andthe second son of a wealthy family, had eventually turned into a useless man who was scolded by hiswife every day.
Jacob choked for a bit and mumbled bashfully, “Later… Sigh, I don’t want to talk about it, it’s nothingbut bitter tears…”
In the middle of their conversation, a man about the same age as Jacob walked out from behind thegate and rushed toward them when he saw them.
“Hey, Jacob, long time no see! Wow, look at you, so smart and charming…”
