Come Into My Arms novel Chapter 23

Amelia glanced at the table and found everyone had a stack of notes of $10 beside their hands as gamble fund except the mahjong tiles scattered out of order.

With a second of hesitation, she took out the cash from her wallet, which was the remains of her last month's salary, and put it in an empty seat.

A bright idea came to Eve - let her second daughter-in- law understand how authoritative she is by playing mahjong!

Possibly due to her bad luck, Amelia lost three times in a row.

In the fourth round, Eve increased the wager, assuming that once Amelia lost again, her wallet would be empty.

Therefore, the mother-in-law could not wait to see Amelia obedient to drive a BMW X1.

Seeing her mother- in- law's sinister smile, Amelia whispered, "Mom, I have my transport means which will be parked outside there, which could make my commuting easy, is that okay?"

Without knowing what the means is, Eve approved, "It's a piece of cake. Sort it out yourself."

Amelia added, "It's an electro motorbike, Mom."

"..." Eve was stunned.

What did it mean for the daughter- in- law of the grand Hopper Family go to work on a worn- out motorcycle? Others might criticise the Family treated her bad!

"No way, our family can't afford to lose face!"

"Ask Patrick to buy you a BMW XI. It's small and a good match with you young girls."

Amelia replied indifferently, "I appreciate your kindness, mom. But let me keep what I have please."

Eve knew very well that Amelia had a stubborn temper. If she confronted her toughly with toughness, she would only be more treacherous. So she decided to persuade her with wisdom and ordered, "Let's change the rule. Let's bet a car in the next round."

Florence got excited, "How?"
