Chapter 56: Hidden Card_1

Perhaps feeling that her words were somewhat ambiguous, Lydia White thought for a moment, then added unnecessarily, "I am willing to put up the money."

Watching his daughter get along well with another man gave Sam White mixed feelings. The more he watched, the more he felt upset. He decided not to watch Basil Jaak and Lydia interact, and instead focused all his attention on the cards before him.

This time when Lydia came back, she brought with her the last 30,000 dollars she had, originally intending to help pay off Sam's debts and stop his gambling. But when she heard that Sam wanted to marry her off to a playboy for what he called a "change of luck", her heart died.

There is an old saying that goes, 'there is nothing more sad than a dead heart'.

Lydia felt desperate about Sam and naturally wouldn't offer the money to him again. Yet, when Basil asked to borrow money, she didn't hesitate to provide it.
