Chapter 1867 Arrogant Your Prejudice (10)

"Five thousand pounds?"

Mr. Bennett took the check and identified it with Mr. Gardner, and found that the check was true.

There is indeed an amount of 5,000 pounds above, which can be cashed directly at the bank.

Realizing this, Mr. Bennett's first reaction was not surprise, but shock.

It’s not his fault, he is really not a reliable person in front of him.

One is a selfish stupid girl who elopes for love, and the other is a bastard who is a sex-scammer who is a liar.

Also, if you get five thousand pounds overnight, you won’t think about it through normal channels.

You know, 5,000 pounds is a considerable amount. A rich man like Mr. Bingley only earns 5,000 pounds a year.

Mr. Bennett has been running his whole life and has only so much dowry left to his daughter. This is the total number of five daughters combined!

"This, how did this money come from?

Many illegal and criminal things have emerged in Mr. Bennett's mind.

He was really afraid that his unlucky daughter would do something terrible under the instigation of Wickham.

By then, the reputation of their Bennett family would be completely destroyed.

The couple Lydia and Wickham probably won't have a good ending.

"Nothing, Mr. Wickham took me to the casino yesterday—"

Anne pretended to wave her hand casually, but when she mentioned the word "casino", her bright and lively eyes flashed with excitement.

"Casino?" Mr. Bennett felt dizzy in front of him.

Damn it, he was indeed not wrong. His Lydia, who was only married to Wickham for one day, was taken to pieces.

A married lady actually ran to a casino where men were hiding?

What an indecent behavior would this be if it was spread.

Their Bennett family, uh, wait, now Lydia is no longer the daughter of the Bennett family, but Mrs. Wickham.

Even if people are lost, people will criticize the Wickham family more.

But even so, the Bennett family will be gossiped about.

My head hurts so hard that I feel breathing. Mr. Bennett finally realized what it feels like to have a migraine that my wife shouts all day long.

Of course, Mr. Bennett still stubbornly thought that his wife was complaining without any illness, and that he was really a headache!

He is really destined to worry about raising Lydia, a daughter who is so uneasy.

"Yes, dad, it's the casino!"

Annie seemed not to see Mr. Bennett fainting, and said excitedly: "During this period, I have always heard you and my uncle mention the casino, so I am very interested in this place. Just now, I got married, no longer a lady who is restricted everywhere, but a lady who can take her unmarried sisters to the wedding. So, yesterday, on the way back to the small hotel, I went to the casino with Mr. Wickham!"

Mr. Bennett & Mr. Gardner:…

These days, they always mention the casino in front of Lydia, just wanting to tell her: the gentleman you chose is not a gentleman, but a gambler with poor character and dissatisfaction, a liar!

Lydia actually ignored such an obvious point and turned to focus on what casino?

Also, what does your "I'm married" mean?

If a girl said this, Mr. Bennet might be a little moved: her daughter wanted to do something undecent, but she was afraid of implicating the family, so she insisted on getting married, and then-

After all, Lydia is now called Lydia Wickham, not Lydia Bennett.

Even if she behaves absurdly, she is a member of the Wickham family, and her relationship with the Bennett family is not particularly strong.

But it was Lydia who said this. Haha, let’s forget it. If she really has a family in her heart and can care about her relatives and sisters, she wouldn’t elope!

Compared to elopement and going to a casino to gamble, it seems not that shocking.

But Mr Bennett had a question: "You won £5,000 in just one night?"

Lydia has never been involved in gambling. She went to the casino for the first time. Not only did she not lose her skirt, she actually won a huge sum of money.

What this sounds like a myth.

"Of course not!"

Anne shook her head.

Before Mr. Bennett could say "It's true", Anne shouted happily: "Seven thousand pounds! I won seven thousand pounds!"

Mr. Bennett:...

If there wasn't a hint of reason to remind himself, he really wanted to pinch himself to make sure he was dreaming.

It's not dreaming, then, that's true?

But why does he still feel so dreamy?

He couldn't help but turn his head and stare straight at Wickham.

He wanted to ask, Mr. Wickham, you don't look like a fool. Lydia, a man who goes to gambling for the first time, can win a huge sum of thousands of pounds.

And you, who have been in the casino for many years, have not won money, but instead owe a lot of debts.

This time, the speechless person was replaced by Wickham. Although he tried his best to maintain his original graceful and handsome appearance in front of the Bennett family, he could not hold on at this moment when facing Mr. Bennett's obvious eyes.

After laughing a few times, Wickham said awkwardly, "Lydia, she is a novice, and in the casino, the novice is often lucky!"

Good luck?

Mr. Bennett felt that this was no longer just a good luck, but a lot of luck.

You can win 5,000 pounds overnight, and you can be called getting rich overnight!

Look at the check in your hand, then look at your relaxed and casual daughter, who is as wise and calm as Mr. Bennett, and has a hint of impulse. Why don’t you take the time to try it in the casino?

But soon, Mr. Bennett suppressed this ridiculous idea.

"Dad, you paid the gambling debt for Mr. Wickham, and I happened to win some more money. You can take this money."

Anne is like a nouveau riche, with an extremely arrogant tone.

"I know, you borrowed this money from Mr. Darcy. Hum, this man is extremely arrogant. If I owe him money, wouldn't I be even more shameful in front of him?"

Anne did not mention Elizabeth, nor did she mean any self-blame or shame.

Lydia was originally a selfish person. She dared to elope because she did not take the reputation of other sisters and her lifelong happiness seriously.

So, if she could repay Mr. Darcy's debt, she would only do it for herself, not for others!

Well, the same thing, even if Lydia is the best, her character cannot collapse.
