Chapter 233

The slap was so loud that it made everyone at the door look sideways at them.

The boy’s friends felt ashamed, took two steps back silently, and walked away from him.

The boy refused to give in and shouted loudly, “I won it in a fair game. Why can’t I take the money?”

The woman pointed at his nose and ordered, “Take out the money and return it to her. Now”

The boy said, “No, I won’t.”

The woman said, “Do you want me to beat you?”

The boy said, “Go ahead. Kill me, if you dare!”

The woman shouted, “You!”

The woman was furious. She raised her hand again, but her arm trembled.

Mandy walked over and said to the woman sternly, “Ma’am, we gave him the money. We agreed to have a bet.

“He won the money. He should be the one to decide what to do with it. You have no right to ask him to return it.”

The woman was speechless, unable to retort to Mandy’s argument. She felt embarrassed, unsure whether to keep her hand

up.

Mandy said to the boy like an adult, “But Quinlyn said gambling was not good.

“It’s fine to gamble small now, but it’s easy to get addicted to it later.”

The last sentence changed the boy’s expression. He immediately became angry.

He said, “None of your business!”

The woman immediately said, “Gil, don’t be so rude.” She apologized to Mandy with embarrassment and then said, “How about I treat you two to a fast food restaurant?”

Fast food restaurants were unhealthy so Mandy wanted to refuse.

But based on the woman’s clothes, Mandy knew she was from a poor family so fast food was probably the most she could afford. So Mandy said nothing.

In the end, the four of them went to a chain store across the road.

Before Quinlyn entered the store, she asked the bodyguards beside the car not to investigate anything.

Quinlyn thought the mother and son in front of her were not a threat.

The boy was reluctant at first. After sitting down, he crossed his arms stubbornly.

He said, “I’m not eating.”

Mandy said, “I’ll have fries.”

Quinlyn said, “I’d like a Coke.”
