Chapter 587

Author: Lord Leaf
Even though Hannah was trying to stabilize Elaine’s mentality and emotions, Elaine’s mentality had already collapsed at this point!

To put it bluntly, she did have some skills when it came to playing mahjong. However, the biggest problem was that she could not change the tiles that she drew. There was nothing she could do if she had a bad hand. At this time, all of her emotions were openly displayed on her face.

For instance, she could be very excited for a very long time if she won, but when she lost, she could not help but wait to eat the other person alive!

She had won so many games earlier, but she had only won about three hundred thousand dollars. However, she had lost so much money after losing two big games. This naturally made her feel very uncomfortable. Not only did she lose the three hundred thousand dollars she had won, but she also lost more than two million dollars! This was literally half of her life savings!

Elaine had not earned much money for herself in this life,

I know little about baccarat) it is not so detailed about a game. Bad hand, good hand, swindled. It is a norm in all ‘chance based’ games, pls redact and refund, because I actually am enjoying a story I don’t want to dismiss yet!

I am English I know F A and need/want to know F A about a random Asian game, I get the point of the story to be taken as a ‘rube’ but there are too many pages that actually explain a game that I really could never care about. In research, if you read the original casino royal (

    This set of tiles was another Heavenly Hand. She could win with two North Winds and a red tile.Most importantly, if she could get a North Wind tile, she would be able to get East, South, West, and North Wind. She would be able to win a big four!Winning with a big four was one of the biggest multipliers!If she could touch a North Wind, she would be able to win her two million dollars back!As she thought about it, Elaine really wanted to yell in excitement as she wanted to get a North Wind tile.She felt that the North Wind tile or the red tile would usually be of little use to anyone. Therefore, an average person would usually discard these tiles when they have it. So, even if she could not draw the tile on her own, someone would definitely discard one of these tiles.Little did she know, these tiles that she had were already a dead-end!The North Wind and the red tile that she needed were already in Gianna’s hand. That was to say, like her previous Heavenly Hand, the set in

    Elaine had completely fallen into a pit. She did not realize that she had already fallen into a trap. All she could think about was how she could win her money back.Therefore, Elaine got very nervous when she heard that Linda did not want to continue playing anymore. At this time, she blurted out immediately, “How can we stop playing just because you want to stop playing now?! We already agreed to play another eight rounds! We have only played three rounds now!”Linda replied helplessly, “Sister Elaine, it’s not that I do not want to play with you anymore. However, the point is that you do not have the money to play with us anymore!”After she was done speaking, Linda said, “Why don’t we take a step back instead? Why don’t you settle this account first and then, we can play a smaller game? I will still accompany you to play even if it is a one thousand dollars or one hundred dollars game. Will that be fine?”“One thousand dollars? One hundred dollars?” Elaine blurted out anxiously

    Elaine secretly made up her mind to earn back all of her money and make more profits this time!She gave everything that she had to continue playing the game.However, she would never have expected to lose the one million three hundred and twenty thousand dollars in just half an hour!Elaine was completely bewildered at this time. She was very unwilling to stop playing after losing all her money, and she quickly said, “Come, come, let’s play another round!”Linda said, “Sister Elaine, you don’t have any more money now. So, how are you going to pay us if you lose after we continue playing?”“I…”Elaine did not know how she should answer her question.She had completely exhausted everything she had.She had already used up all of her savings, and she had even mortgaged the only house occupied by her entire family.She did not have anything else she could mortgage anymore.However, Linda had sharp eyes, and she could recognize the value of the jade bracelet on Elaine’s wrist at

    Hannah already knew that Zeke was the one who had given Charlie the villa at Thompson First.Therefore, she knew that she would have to push Elaine to the limit if she wanted to win the villa at Thompson First over from Elaine.Hannah knew that Charlie would not sit back and watch idly if Elaine did something so unreasonable.At that time, she would finally have the opportunity to take over the villa.Therefore, Hannah told Elaine, “You have already lost so much money. I think that it will be very difficult for you to win back all your money if we continue betting only ten thousand dollars. Why don’t we raise the bet instead? How about fifty thousand dollars? Anyway, you have enough money to cover your losses with the villa, but if you win, you can easily win back all your money in just two games!”Elaine had already lost all of her reasoning at this point, and she simply wanted to win all of her money back. Upon hearing this, Elaine immediately nodded in agreement as she blurted

    In fact, these five million dollars was made up of Elaine’s two over million dollars, including the two million dollars that Hannah had put in as bait. Linda was simply repeatedly lending the same five million dollars that Elaine kept taking and losing back to her. After a whole night, the fifty million dollars that Elaine got from mortgaging the villa was already lost.At this time, Linda told Elaine, “Sister Elaine, I am sorry, but it seems as though you have already used up the fifty million dollars that you got from the mortgage.”Elaine felt as though she was going insane, and she blurted out immediately, “My villa is worth more than one hundred million dollars! You cannot simply take a mortgage from me for just fifty million dollars! You should give me another fifty million dollars for it!”“I am sorry.” Linda smiled slightly before she said, “We have already signed a mortgage contract, and everything is written in black and white. You were the one who agreed to mortgage the v

    Linda had already exposed her true colors.She was already entering the finishing stage of slaughtering the pig!When Elaine saw the murderous expression on Linda’s face, she felt that she could not possibly be a wealthy woman at all.She suddenly realized that she had probably been cheated.After looking at Hannah, she felt that something was really wrong at this point.Why would Hannah take the initiative to come and apologize to her today? Moreover, why would Hannah even take the initiative to invite her to come over to play mahjong with them?Was this really planned by Hannah?There was something amiss with Linda too!Wasn’t she supposed to be bad at playing mahjong?So, how could she possibly win so much money from her then?As she thought about this, Elaine suddenly realized that she had probably been fooled!At this time, Elaine pointed a finger at Hannah before she blurted out furiously, “You with the last name Queen! You are such a shameless b*tch! You actually coll

    As soon as he stepped through the front door, the man had a cold expression on his face as he yelled, “F*ck! Who is the one who is refusing to pay my second aunt the money that she owes her?”Linda pointed her finger at Elaine before she said, “Hudson, she is the one!”The visitor was none other than her nephew, Hudson Howard.Hudson fixed his icy cold gaze on Elaine before he said, “What? You actually dare to try not paying my second aunt the money that you owe her? Do you know who I am? Are you already tired of living in Aurous Hill?”Elaine was so scared that she trembled as she said, “I…I really don’t have money to pay you…”Linda replied in a cold manner, “Stop talking nonsense with me! Give me your villa if you don’t have any money! Otherwise, I will teach you a lesson today!”Elaine was on the verge of collapsing and she quickly yelled, “I don’t have money! I have no money at all! I don’t have any money to give you even if you kill me!”Hudson stepped forward and grabbed

    As soon as she thought about this, Elaine could not help but break down as she broke into tears. She felt a strong sense of humiliation overcoming her at this time.Elaine cried and pleaded, “Please don’t force me to take a video. I’ll call my son-in-law and ask him to come here without causing any problems for you at all. I’ll ask him to bring the house deed here immediately. I won’t say anything else.”Hudson was very indifferent as he stared at her with a cold expression on his face as he said, “These are my rules and this is how I do things. You have to shoot this video no matter what happens today. Even if you refuse to do so, you will still have to take this video!”“If you take the initiative to remove your own clothes, then all of us can end this matter peacefully. However, if you refuse to cooperate with me, then I will ask my men to tear your clothes off on your behalf!”As he spoke, Hudson looked Elaine up and down before he said with a lewd smile on his face, “Yes, I fo

    Charlie chuckled. "Don't sell yourself short, Mr. Hart. There are plenty of business folk who got so used to their comfort zone that they became caught in the illusion that they can be successful in anything they do. It's a mindset that leads to them blindly developing new projects and new competition, and then they end up losing big."If memory serves, there have been real estate businesses that started mineral water brands, search engines that tried the car industry, e-commerce sites attempting social media, and vice-versa. All of them are multi-billion-dollar companies venturing into new frontiers, but all to unimpressive outcomes."Pausing, Charlie then continued, "You've mentioned rising above the competition amidst the development of the new energy industry. That would get anyone's attention, and it is why I believe that you definitely will make a strong impression with your strategizing and knowledge of the basic principles."Yolden found it hard to refuse, seeing that Charli

    Having lost it all, Jacob really looked like he wouldn't be getting back up.But fortunately, he had a pillar in the form of Elaine.In fact, Elaine would serve to be a container, whipping Jacob into shape if he got too full of himself.But on the other hand, now that Jacob was utterly despondent, she would be forcing him to smile and function in general.Elaine's attitude to the entire issue was clear as well. Even though Jacob had just lost his job, she would make him go shopping with her in Dubai even if he fell into a coma. Even if he was dead, she'd just cremate him and bring his ashes along.Hence, with Elaine's firm grip around Jacob's leash, he went on strolls, going shopping and taking selfies with Elaine everyday, eventually easing the toll on his mood and spirit.-Back at Aurous Hill, Charlie was preparing for Yolden Hart and Matilda Hall's wedding as it approached.Yolden was a schoolmate of his mother, Ashley Layna Acker, as well as Charlie's elder.And while Cha

    "See you." As soon as Charlie hung up on Matilda, Don Albert's call came right after.He sounded nervous as Charlie answered the phone, saying, "Master Wade, I think I might have gone too far…""Wait, what's this about?" Charlie asked."Your father-in-law, of course…" Don Albert sighed. "You asked me to leave him hanging for a while, so I did. I even refused when he asked to book a room in Heaven Springs.""Well, that's not a problem, is it?" Charlie shrugged. "He and Zachary ganged up for some real mischief. As you are Zachary's boss, it's right that you refused him because you didn't appreciate what he did.""That's just it. I thought that approach was just right as well," Don Albert quickly said. "I wasn't playing nice when Mr. Bay of the Calligraphy and Painting Association called me either. That's when he said he'd try to save Jacob's position as vice-president, but I told him it's none of my business."I then hung up on him without much thought, only for Zachary to tell m

    Meanwhile, Charlie was downstairs in Claire's office, waiting to pick her up and head home.That was when Matilda called him, asking as soon as he answered, "Charlie, do you know how Jacob is doing? He never answered any of my texts—is he going to be alright?""I wouldn't know," Charlie replied. "Both he and Elaine are in Dubai on a trip… What's wrong?""He resigned," Matilda sighed. "I only saw the public statement that the Calligraphy and Painting Association posted this afternoon. It says that he tendered the resignation himself, but it doesn't really feel that way. I wonder if he's at odds with other members of the association…"Charlie was actually surprised to hear that Jacob had resigned.He had told Zachary to expose the truth of the bronze sculpture fraud case to teach Jacob a lesson so that Jacob would understand the meaning of true pain.However, he anticipated that Mr. Bay would at least keep Jacob around with an unimportant job even if Jacob did lose some money and e

    Falling apart in both mind and spirit, Jacob was crying as he disembarked and took a cab to the hotel.Elaine, who had been lying around for 24 hours, was stunned speechless as she watched him enter, crying like a child.In contrast, Elaine looked like a mother to Jacob just then as he threw himself into her arms and bawled, "Darling… That prick Mr. Bay screwed me over… I have nothing left now…"Taken aback for a moment that Jacob would bawl in her arms like that, Elaine soon came to her senses and patted his back as she comforted him, "Oh, stop crying already. Who cares about some Calligraphy and Painting groupies? We certainly don't! Just hear me out and don't ever go there again!"Jacob kept sobbing, "But I care… I want to go…"Annoyed, Elaine's hand that had been patting Jacob a moment ago slid down to his hip and pinched him viciously before he noticed."Ow!" Jacob yelped in pain, and he demanded indignantly, "What was that for?!""Shut up!" Elaine snapped, glowering. "I wa

    Jacob couldn't even be bothered by the looks others were giving him, and he called Mr. Bay immediately.Mr. Bay had already gone home and was seated on the couch with his wife, watching his phone and waiting for Jacob to call and demand an explanation.Mr. Bay knew that he had to answer for this and that if he avoided Jacob, it may well be a confession that he had screwed Jacob over.So, to avoid unnecessary trouble, he decided to come clean with Jacob.Naturally, by coming clean, he meant passing the buck as his wife had suggested.Hence, as he answered Jacob's call, he immediately sighed in embarrassment, "Hey, Jacob. I'm so sorry about that…"However, Jacob was so furious he immediately started bellowing, "Mr. Bay! Are you fucking with me here?! You said that the resignation letter was more of a formality, but you just made it public instead! So, all those things you said about helping me were just a trap, was it?! You're despicable! And to think I've been so good to you, even

    The repeated flights had left Jacob tormented.Even before he actually had the time to enjoy Dubai, he had already gotten sick of the place and didn't want to ever return.And on the flight, he couldn't stop his thoughts from going astray.Now that he was not getting back the money he had lost, his only hope was Mr. Bay.Fortunately, Mr. Bay was serious about his promise that he would at least save him a job as department head. That was why, despite his thoughts running astray, he never considered the thought that he would be kicked out of the Calligraphy and Painting Association.As soon as his flight landed, he didn't wait to turn off his phone's flight mode, waiting for the internet connection to return so that he could ask Mr. Bay about the meeting.Once he did, he received a ton of messages from public accounts to acquaintances—many had already found out that he had resigned from the post of administrative vice-president and wanted to ask how he was doing.And Matilda was

    The Calligraphy and Painting Association was certainly efficient—soon after the meeting was dismissed, the news that the administrative vice-president had resigned was posted on their official page and social media.The notice was simple and never mentioned what Jacob had done, only that the administrative vice-president had asked to resign for personal reasons. The request had since been voted upon, and all members had agreed to it.And that was how a simple and short message kicked Jacob out of the Calligraphy and Painting Association entirely.In the city, other associations closely connected with the Calligraphy and Painting Association were the various cultural societies and circles of antique enthusiasts and the Senior University. In fact, most fans of the public page of the Calligraphy and Painting Association were from the Senior City, and every lecturer, student, and even guest lecturer were subscribed.As a matter of fact, that was entirely Jacob's doing. After his lect

    There weren't that many members in the Calligraphy and Painting Association—just a handful over twenty.Hence, at Mr. Bay's request, everyone showed up at the conference at 1 pm.He chose the afternoon as there were a handful who were away on outreach, including Walker, who was subbing for Jacob's lectures.Once the entire Calligraphy and Painting Association save for Jacob was informed of the mandatory meeting, every member was there on the hour, seated primly and in attention in the huge conference room.Mr. Bay didn't waste his breath on the preamble either—as soon as he saw that everyone had arrived, he announced, "Everyone, I've gathered you here today because our administrative vice-president, Jacob Wilson, has been alleged to be involved in a certain malicious scheme."Last night, Mr. Wilson submitted his resignation to me, and after a discussion with my vice-presidents, we've all decided to hold a vote.
