Love at first sight novel (Judith Cooper) novel Chapter 2601

Kendrick smiled and said, “I lose. I make no excuses. Can’t you afford to lose? In the past, you consistently won. Try losing occasionally. There are always winners and losers in gmbling; if you cannot afford to lose, stop gmbling.”

Kenneth was speechless.

Kiera walked aside and sat down to count the money. After counting clearly, she handed half of the money to Silas and said with a smile, “Silas, this is your money.”

Silas took half of the money, but soon he returned half of it. He said, “Sister Caron, I only paid $100, and I don’t dare share it with you. I only need this much, and it’s enough for me. I’ve been having late-night snacks for the past six months.”

Kiera said, “It’s given to you; just take it and save it yourself. Don’t let your stepmother know.”

When Silas was very young, his parents divorced, and he was given to his father. His father was a taciturn man. After the divorce, he became even more taciturn and didn’t care much about Silas. He left Silas to be taken care of by his grandparents.

Later, he remarried an older leftover daughter from his first marriage. Silas was about to go to school when he was taken back by his father. However, his stepmother was powerful, and Silas had a difficult life and was often beaten severely by her stepmother.

He wanted to resist, but he was a child after all and couldn’t resist. Instead, he was beaten even more severely.

The father was busy working to make money and traveling frequently, so he paid little attention to Silas. He did not know that Silas was severely beaten by his step-wife.

Silas’s aunt felt sorry for her nephew and filed a lawsuit on his behalf. However, her father often went on business trips. When he was not at home, her stepmother would become even more aggressive. His aunt gritted her teeth and paid for Silas to enroll in a martial arts class. So that his stepmother wouldn’t bully him, she wanted Silas to stay active and pick up some boxing and kicking skills.

This study lasted for six years. Now Silas’s stepmother did not dare to beat him, so she treated Silas badly in terms of money. Silas’s pocket money was not as much as that of his half-brother. After attending classes, he often went to pick up some cartons and bottles. If he collects more, sell them for money and earn pocket money.

His father gave him $100 in pocket money when he got home from a business trip, and he kept it for midnight snacks.

At his age, when he was growing, he ate a lot and got hungry easily.
