Hannah introduced her friend to Sister Linda, saying, “Sister Linda, I’d like you to meet ine, the friend I mentioned earlier. She loves ying mahjong just like you do, and she always has a fantastic hand! ine is quite the gambler but is never a sore loser.”
“Hello, Sister Linda!” ine eximed, eager to make a good impression.
Linda smiled warmly and replied, “What a coincidence! I’ve been looking for another mahjongpanion. If you’re interested, you’re more than wee to join Hannah and me for games here in the future.”
ine’s eyes lit up. “That sounds wonderful! I have a friend I usually y with, but she’s heading to the United States soon. I was worried I wouldn’t find anyone else to y with!”
Linda extended her hand in a polite gesture. “Hello, ine. I’m Linda. Wee to my home!”<h3 style="background-color:DodgerBlue">
ine quickly shook her hand, feeling a sense of camaraderie forming.
Linda continued, “You know, my vi has been sitting empty since the renovations werepleted. I thought it would be a perfect spot for my sisters and me to enjoy some mahjong together.”
ine felt a tinge of envy. Linda’s luxurious vi was a fantastic venue for their games, suggesting she was quite affluent, maybe even more so than Summer.<fnb6c0> For more chapters visit Find?Novel</fnb6c0>
As ine admired the Thompson First vi, she noted its elegance. While it was indeed luxurious, it wasn’t as expansive as the vi Zeke had gifted to Charlie. That vi was thergest in Thompson First, whereas Linda’s was the smallest. Yet, even the smallest vi was still impressive by most standards.
Curiosity got the better of ine. “Sister Linda, how much did you spend on this vi?”
Linda paused, then quickly responded, “Oh, it wasn’t too expensive. I paid around eighty million dors for it.”
In reality, this vi didn’t belong to Linda at all; it was owned by a film and televisionpany. After renovation, it had been converted into an indoor filming location. Recently, a television series titled ‘New Love Apartment’ was filmed here, but it was still in post-production and hadn’t aired yet.
Now that filming had wrapped and the vi was vacant, thepany decided to temporarily rent it out to offset costs until the next project began in a month.
Unknown to ine, Hannah had orchestrated this trap by renting the vi for five thousand dors a day, aiming to reim her dignity and finances after being humiliated by ine and Christopher previously.
Hannah hoped to not only win back her money but also take advantage of Charlie’s vi, which would dramatically change her circumstances.
Unaware of the scheme, ine thought she had struck gold by reconnecting with an acquaintance who could be a reliable source of ie for her. With a bright smile, she said to Linda, “Sister Linda, it’ll be so convenient for us to y mahjong together! My family and I are moving into my son-inw’s vi, Vi A05 at Thompson First, next month!”
Linda was already aware of ine’s vi at Thompson First. Without that knowledge, she wouldn’t have teamed up with Hannah to deceive ine out of her money.
In her fifties and a seasoned croupier with over thirty years of experience in Macau, Linda was skilled in various card games, especially mahjong.
Hannah had promised Linda technical support during their games, and they nned to split any profits they made. Thus, ine viewed Linda as a source of financial gain, while Linda saw ine as an easy target to exploit—ready to divide the spoils with Hannah!<h3 ss="has-text-align-center" id="chapter-list"><strong></strong>
