Who is Viola Thompson?
She has been the only girl in the Thompson Clan for so many years.
Calling her a little princess would not be an exaggeration.
It’s only fitting that such a grand homecoming would be organized for the little princess!
Evan Thompson couldn’t believe it when he received the phone call, so he immediately rushed to the hospital with Elena Williams.
“Did they really find Viola?” Elena Williams grabbed Mary Perryne’s hand, “Sister-in-law, am I dreaming? Bodhisattva, I was just talking about this with Penny yesterday!
“It’s true! It’s true!” exclaimed Mary Perryne, nodding excitedly.
“How wonderful! Sister-in-law, your bitter days are finally over!” Elena Williams found herself teary-eyed, thinking of the difficulties the couple had gone through over the years.
Then, Elena continued, “Brother and sister-in-law, you should hurry to the airport. Don’t worry about mom, Penny and I will take good care of her.”
“Alright.”
Sylvia Thompson was watching the scene unfold before her, her face drained of color.
This was the first time Sylvia had seen the Thompson Family give such a grand welcome to anyone.
Even her second uncle and youngest uncle were present.
Only now did she realize the Thompson Family’s unity was so strong.
Before this, she had always thought of the Thompson Family’s affection for each other as rather weak.
Apparently, their affection wasn’t weak, but she wasn’t part of their true bloodline, so their love for her was thin.
Thinking of this, sarcasm welled up within Sylvia Thompson’s heart.
Although she was heartbroken, Sylvia pretended to look happy, holding Mary
Perryne’s hand, “Mom, I’m so excited to meet my sister soon.”
“So am I,” Mary Perryne said. “Sylvia, what should I say when I see Viola later?”
Sylvia looked at Mary, “Mom, I won’t go with you. After all, I have no blood relationship with my sister, and I’m about the same age as her. If she sees me, she will certainly overthink it. I’ll stay at home and wait for you.”
With that, she portrayed Viola Thompson as a very petty person.
“It’s alright,” Mary Perryne held Sylvia’s hand. “Sylvia, I believe that you two sisters can get along well.”
“I… I’d rather not go,” Sylvia added. “I’ll stay home and take care of grandma with my second aunt and youngest aunt.”
Mary Perryne wanted to say something more.
Penny Kalafatis interrupted, “Since Sylvia doesn’t want to go, sister-in-law, don’t force her.’
Don’t want to go?
She doesn’t want to go?
Hearing these words, Sylvia Thompson frowned.
She knew that Penny Kalafatis disliked her.
So, both in and out, Penny Kalafatis was always belittling her.
How could it be that she didn’t want to go? It was clearly Viola Thompson who didn’t want to see her.
She was afraid of hurting Viola Thompson!
Her kindness turned into nothingness in Penny Kalafatis’s view.
Mary Perryne didn’t push any further, as she looked at Sylvia. “You wait for us at home, Sylvia, and make sure to take good care of your grandmother.” Hearing Mary’s words, Sylvia only grew more disappointed.
She had thought that Mary would keep her insistence on going together.
Sylvia deliberately wanted to disgust Viola Thompson.
To make Viola understand that she is the Young Miss Thompson Family.
But now,
Mary Perryne clearly didn’t take her seriously!
Sylvia bit her lip and nodded, obediently saying, “Alright, mom, you come back soon.’
“Mhm.” Mary’s heart had long flown to River City, eager to be by her daughter’s side as soon as possible.
Mother and daughter had been separated for eighteen years.
She had to see her daughter with her own eyes before she could believe it was true.
Without waiting for Sylvia to say anything else, Mary called their housekeeper.
“Mr. Cooper, Miss Thompson will be home soon. Arrange for someone to clean her room.” After a pause, she continued, “The temperature in Capital City is low, so turn up the heating. Also, we might not be back until tomorrow morning, so remember to prepare more food. Make both Western and Chinese breakfasts available…
Mary meticulously instructed.
Mr. Cooper was taken aback for a moment, then soon responded, “Congratulations, madam! I’ll get everything ready at once!”
No one could understand Sylvia’s emotions at this moment.
The moment Mary uttered the words ‘Miss Thompson’, Sylvia’s heart died.
Viola Thompson was the Young Miss Thompson Family.
So, what was she?
What was she, who had been with Evan Thompson and Mary Perryne for eighteen years and dutifully served them?
What an irony!
On the other side,
Borden received Mandel Thompson’s call and immediately went to the airport to prepare for their departure..
