Chapter 10 It Is About Love
Hearing the voice, with the help of the dim light, I recognized that woman was my mother.
She was disheveled and a little disheveled. Her hair was sticking to her face because she had not washed for so many days.
My mother's clothes were so dirty and her sleeves had been polished. Next to her seat, a bucket of instant noodles was placed
at her feet.
"Faye, look at you. Your daughter looks much better than you."
"My daughter? Is my daughter here? Where is she? "
My mom glanced around the hooligan. When she saw me carrying a paper bag, she gave me a big smile.
My mom pushed away the man's hand and ran to me with a smile. "I know you won't leave me alone."
I gritted my teeth and glared at my mother. "Didn't you say that they would chop off your fingers? Why are you still sitting here
gambling? How much have you lost? Can you learn from your mistake? It would be better to spend the money on anything else.
Why can't you quit gambling? "
My mother didn't want to listen to my babbling. She looked away and scratched her itchy hair.
Seeing that someone was looking back because of my voice, my mother raised her hand to greet them with a smile and said,
"You go on."
My mom glared at me and grabbed the bag of money from my hand quickly, "You're too nagging at such a young age. Anyway,
I've got the money. Don't talk nonsense!"
"Give me back the money." Looking at my mother, I regret giving her money.
My mom held the money tightly and said, "Really, I didn't lie to you. Without these money, my fingers would be gone. I said you
would pay for me, so they allowed me to sit there and continue playing."
As soon as my mother finished speaking, the hooligan grabbed the paper bag from my mother's hand and poked his head to
look at the money in it.
My mother never treated these people in the same way as she treated me. She came close to that man like a pug and said,
"40000, you can take 40000, 10000 is still mine."
The hooligan gave my mother a stare, took out a pile of money from the pocket and threw it back to her. "You old bitch! You lied
to your daughter!"
My mom took the money quickly and said to the hooligan, "thank you, sir."
The hooligan took the money and went into one of the inner rooms.
I glared at my mom, "what the hell is? Did you lie to me again?"
My mom was holding the money in her arms, and when she approached me, she began to touch me.
"What are you doing?"
"Do you have any more money with you?"
"How can I have money? How can I possibly have money?"
My mom rolled her eyes at me in disapproval and said, "I know you're a heartless person. You wouldn't remember to bring me
some money. If I didn't ask you for another ten thousand, you would give me forty thousand. Then I'll have to live on air in the
following days? I can't believe that you've married such a rich man like Robbie. Your pockets are fucking clean. "
My mom saw that nothing was found on me, so she turned around and wanted to go back to the gambling table.
I grabbed the back of my mother's collar and said, "Faye, can you quit gambling or not? Can you stop it? Now go with me. If you
continue to stay, don't say they want your finger, even if want your life I also won't tube. This is the last time."
My mom shook off my hand on her collar rudely. She frowned and looked at me. "You are as shameless as your dad. You want
to dump me, right? If so, just dump me. After all, he has run away with other women. I don't care about you at all. What's the use
of you on me? What else can you do except for dragging me? What's wrong with you? You have just married a rich man, so you
become unyielding? I only spend you a little money, you feel distressed? You are as cold as your father. "
My mom just scolded me and ignored me. Then she went back to her table and said to her gambling friends, "come on. Let's
continue."
My mother was so incorrigible and I was so eager to pull her down from the gambling table.
I didn't think too much and just ran up to overturn their tables.
With a clatter, these cards fell to the ground along with the table.
"Are you insane? Let me tell you, you need to pay for all the cards," someone else pointed at me and cursed
My mom didn't expect that either. She was so angry that she raised her hand in an attempt to beat me.
The hooligan came out of the inner room, took a look at the mess on the ground, took my arm and pulled it out.
"Let go of me! Why don't you drive Faye away? She can't afford your gamble any more. You can kill her or do whatever you like.
Just leave me alone!"
I couldn't resist the hooligan's strength. He pulled me with one hand, opened the door with the other and pushed me out.
The gates banged and closed again. I kicked hard at them.
What hurt was just my own feet.
I walked to the wall, slid to the ground, my hands covering my face, but I could no longer cry.
I've lived in hell for so many years, and I can't see where my hope is.
I didn't know how long I had been sitting there until I heard the sound of leather shoes stopping beside me.
It occurred to me that Leo was still waiting for me. I adjusted my mood and stood up. "Sorry for keeping you waiting, Leo."
But when I raised my head, the one I saw was not Leo, but Robbie.
His long eyelashes fluttered lightly, and his dark eyes were modest.
"Why are you here? Sorry, I thought it was Leo. "
"The money has been sent in?"
I nodded dejectedly, "yes, I did. Thank you for your help. I owe you one hundred and eighty thousand. I will pay you back later."
Still, Robbie took out a cigarette as usual. "Talk this to me when you have money."
He said it coldly, but I don't think he is belittling me, because I really don't have the ability to pay back the money now.
Robbie exhaled a smoke ring. "If you don't leave Rogelio, you don't have to keep the 130000 in your mind."
In fact, I just wanted to stay away from my mother and keep away from those bad guys. I was willing to make such a choice even
if I don't have 130, 000 from Robbie.
Although Rogelio is a vegetable who has no emotion and will not move, and Mrs. Nancy has always disliked my existence, my
past experience made me see Rogelio's existence as a gift rather than a burden.
No one knew how much I craved for someone's company because since my childhood nobody wanted to be friends with me
because of where I came from.
"No, I will give the money back to you in the future. Please don't ever think of my marriage with Rogelio as a money transaction."
Narrowing his eyes, Robbie said, "what do you want to prove? Do you want me to believe that the marriage between you and
Rogelio is about love? "
