Chapter 366 - Thats a major step for him (1/2)

Meanwhile, at around 5 p.m., when DX and Kai Xin entered into the compound of Du Mansion, they noticed a Rolls-Royce circling around the front yard.

Once DX parked right in front of the main entrance and they got down from the car, they saw the twins and Kai An sitting at the marble stairs while they shared a bag of chips between them.

"Xin!" Kai An went to hug his sister the moment she got out of the car.

"What's this for?"

"Nothing. Just feel like showing my sister some love," said Kai An.

Kai Xin smiled. When they parted, she asked, "Why are you guys sitting here?"

"Oh, we made a $250 bet. Naomi and I bet that Old Madam Du would circle the compound for at least 2 hours before she actually stops and enters the house. The twins bet that she'd circle for at least 3 hours."

The twins met them at the bottom of the stairs and Jack asked, "How are you feeling, Kai Xin?"

Kai Xin smiled and patted his head as she replied, "I'm feeling better now. Sorry for causing you to worry…"

Jack blushed and looked away when his father raised an eyebrow at him.

"How long has she been doing this?" asked DX. He completely disregarded the fact that his twins gambled. It was for fun and the twins were well aware that they have a limited amount of money.

Unlike how he was raised with free access to the family's fund, DX made his kids earn their money. The twins get a good amount of allowance every quarter of the year. If they ran out of money, DX would allow them to get a loan with a hefty interest rate.

The first year they received an allowance, the twins went nuts and spent everything within the first month. When they got their loan, they realized that they could not pay back the loan. For the next 3 months, they had to do pay back the loan by doing the chores around the house.

After their mistake, they smartened up and asked Old Mo to teach them about investment and penny stocks. Since then, they had been saving up the money they made from their investments.

Lyle looked at his watch before answering his father, "Almost one and a half hour. We tried to stop her but she ignored us."

"She won't even pick up our calls," said Jack before he popped a piece of salted egg chips into his mouth. He actually did not care whether he win or lose since $250 was nothing to him. He and Lyle were only playing for fun.

DX took a quick look at his mother's car before saying, "She'll stop in about 15 minutes. Let's go in now…"

He took Kai Xin's hand and went into the mansion. DX stopped one of the maids and asked, "Where's Ms. An?"

"She's chatting with Ms. Naomi at the backyard," said the maid politely.
