Welcome To My Life novel Chapter 37

Just when Isobel sent Amanda away, the news got to Martha.

When she heard that, Martha knitted her brows, "What does she want?"

The person bringing the news shook his head, "I don't know, but it's not the first time that she had taken her mother like this."

Martha squinted her eyes, "Didn't I tell you to make a big scene for her?"

The person felt being in a pickle, "We did plan for Amanda to win a few rounds today, but just in the beginning, Isobel already came and took her, Miss Sutton, this..."

"You are useless!"

Martha took a lamp near her and threw it on the ground, "Keep your eyes on Isobel's mother, as soon as Isobel is distracted, do it!"

"Yes, Miss Sutton, we will get it done as you wish."

If they wanted a gambling addict not to gamble, it would be difficult, but wanting the same addict to enter a casino, was very easy.

When the car stopped downstairs of the apartment building, Amanda already stopped struggling, she looked at the familiar place outside the window, "What do you want to do? I have won a lot of money this time, look, I kept it all for you! I know that you had a hard life before, that's why I want to win a big one this time, so you and me will never have to worry about money again, then you will never feel that you are not good enough for Hamish anymore."

When they left the casino, Amanda came back to her senses again, even though her words were mostly lies, she was thinking for Isobel.

Isobel also knew that Amanda was saying those nice words to lie to her, but she couldn't help to give in, "Mom, take your ID card and registry book, let's leave this place."

"Why? Your father is buried here, where could I go?"

When she was clear in her head, Amanda still loved Thomas, sadly, she wasn't clear so often.

Isobel felt puckery, "Mom, please let's just leave this place, I am begging you!"

Amanda looked at her doubtful, and didn't answer.

After a while, she finally said, "I heard that you broke up with Hamish, are you pregnant and that's why you want to leave this place, and give birth to the baby somewhere else, so he never finds out? I am telling you, Isobel, this will never happen! You have to abort the child, don't do stupid stuff!"

Amanda was barking at the moon, but at the same time, she guessed a lot right.

Isobel remembered the baby she just lost not long ago, and felt even worse, "I am not pregnant, I just want to leave."

She had barely cried in front of her parents, but today, she closed her eyes, and tears ran down her cheeks.

Amanda only then noticed how pale she was in her face, when her tears ran down, even someone who wasn't her mother, would have felt bad for her, and she had held her 10 months in her belly, she was her blood related mother.

"Hey, don't cry."

The other two passengers and the driver knew how to behave in this situation, and got out of the car, so it was only Amanda and Isobel left.

No matter how hard the past ten years were, Isobel had never cried in front of Amanda.

But today, she couldn't hold it back anymore.

The first fifteen years of her life, she was spoiled by her parents, she used to be the little princess who threw tantrums in front of them, but the day of the car accident, everything changed.

Now her relationship ended, her father passed away, all she wanted was a big warm hug that could comfort her and tell her everything will pass.

But there was none.

What she did have were phone calls of her mom asking for money.

Amanda looked at Isobel, and felt pain in her heart.

She never went to the casino and gambled for her own sake, she always wanted to give her family something.
