Chapter 426: 158: Must win the first move! (Second update)

Translator: 549690339

Teacher Ye had high expectations for Elizabeth Thompson.

Elizabeth was also her only hope for becoming an excellent teacher.

This year’s River City top scorer and National Top Scorer must be Elizabeth Thompson!

Only in this way would she be more qualified to marry into the Thompson Clan.

Thinking of this, Teacher Ye narrowed her eyes and continued, “Emma, you must be strong! If you need any help from me, you can always talk to me.”

“Thank you, Teacher Ye.” There was a bit of less pride on Emma’s face.

A bit more gloom.

She had already lost to Viola once and felt that she would not lose to Viola in the College Entrance Examination.

With this in mind.

A determined look flashed through Elizabeth’s eyes.

Seeing Elizabeth like this, Teacher Ye nodded with satisfaction, “Go back to the classroom.”

Elizabeth walked towards the classroom.

Watching Elizabeth’s retreating figure, a teacher in the office said, “Emma seems to have changed a lot overnight.”

Upon hearing this, someone immediately agreed, “Indeed, she has changed a lot.”

Not only was Elizabeth the class favorite, but she was also the school favorite.

The prestigious International School relied on Elizabeth to make a name for themselves!

“Emma is not only from a fallen family but also experienced online violence. It’s not just a child who can’t bear such a blow, even adults would struggle with it.”

Upon mentioning this, someone immediately stood up for Emma.

“Emma’s older sister really doesn’t know what’s good for her! After all, Emma’s parents have raised her for so many years, but Viola just turns her back on them!”

“Fortunately, our Emma is strong-willed! After the College Entrance Examination, once she becomes the number one, her attention will skyrocket, right?”

“Teacher Jocelyn is right.”

At this moment, a short-haired teacher turned back and said, “I have a friend who works at North Bridge High School, and I heard that Viola hasn’t returned to school for two months! I guess she became the Young Miss Thompson Family and doesn’t want to go to school anymore. People like her are just lucky. If their luck was a bit worse, their life would be just like that!”

Not attending school for two months, no matter how good a student’s academic performance is, it’s impossible to achieve impressive results in the College Entrance Examination.

After school in the afternoon.

Viola still tutored Rachel Barton.

Rachel propped her chin with both hands, and the look in her eyes as she stared at Viola was full of admiration.

She didn’t hear a single word about the knowledge points Viola mentioned.

“Viola.”

“Hmm?” Viola turned her eyes slightly.

Rachel continued, “Can you share with me your feelings when your uncle and aunt found you?”

Viola put down the book, “I was just very confused.”

Even now, Viola still felt confused and it all happened so suddenly.

Because she had met Mrs. Thompson and Mary Perryne from the very beginning.

But at that time, she never thought that they were her own family.

Rachel sighed, “I don’t know when my parents will find me.”

Rachel originally didn’t have any special attachment to her family.

But seeing her former friends find their parents, Rachel couldn’t wait to find her parents as well.

She craved a blood relationship.

“Don’t worry,” Viola held Rachel’s hand, “Maybe they’re on their way already.”

“I hope so.” Rachel smiled and said, “By the way, I recently went to the police station to have my blood sample taken and registered my information on the website for finding relatives.”

Finding family is a mutual effort.

Rachel believed that her family members must be anxious to find her too.

In order to reunite with her family as soon as possible, Rachel was willing to do anything.

So, ever since Viola found her family, Rachel started her journey to find her family.

Rachel even went to several cities to find her parents.

Fortunately, she had the 100,000 dollars Viola won for her before.

She used the money to invest in some small businesses and made some money.

After the tutoring session, Viola and Rachel went out to eat together.

When they left, they happened to meet Diana Hershey and Fiona Knight.

“Vio!”

“Rachel is here too!”

“Let’s all go out to eat together.”Being girls of the same age, they easily started playing together.

Olsand Village.

In a small courtyard of a rural family house,

A middle-aged couple was having dinner.

At this moment, the phone suddenly rang.

The middle-aged man immediately put down his bowl and ran to answer the phone.

Soon, the man came back.

“Shangen, who was it?” Seeing her husband return so quickly, the woman asked curiously.

Gregory Diet took a sip of his porridge and said, “It was from the police station. They said they found our daughter, which is simply ridiculous. I think it must be a scammer!”

Gregory Diet and Beatrice Black are 58 years old, born in 1964.

Since they are of older age,

Their mindset is very traditional and strongly favors sons over daughters.

In their attempt to have a son, the couple had five daughters in a row.

It wasn’t until their sixth child that they had a son.

Of these five daughters, other than the eldest and second daughters who were kept with them, the third daughter was drowned in a toilet bowl by her mother-in-law immediately after birth, the fourth daughter was abandoned on a hillside, her fate unknown, and the fifth daughter was also abandoned.

Although the other two daughters were raised by their side, they did not have good lives.

Dolores Frieman, the eldest daughter, was married off by her father to an old widower in the neighboring village when she was not yet eighteen years old.

The second daughter was admitted to high school, but her mother deprived her of her right to go to school, forcing her to follow the neighboring elder sister to work in the city, with her monthly salary handed over to the elder sister, who then gave the full amount to Gregory and Beatrice.

At first, they lied to her that she would go to the city to sell clothes, and once she made money, they would let her go back to school.

But when the second daughter arrived at the place, she realized,

That this was not a clothing store,

But a salon in a red-light district!

Gregory and Beatrice built a house, bought a tractor, and a motorcycle, all by using money the second daughter earned with her body.

There were many times that the second daughter wanted to run away.

But she never succeeded in escaping.

She was kept under close watch, and, as her client load mounted, she clearly felt unwell.

Now.

The 29-year-old second daughter looked older than a 39-year-old person.

Speaking of this, Beatrice Black continued, “If we had known back then that we wouldn’t have abandoned those three girls, look at the second daughter, how much money she can make now! If the third, fourth, and fifth daughters were still here, we wouldn’t need to worry about the 150,000 dollars for Qi Bao’s dowry!”

Finally, Beatrice said with a resentful face: “It’s all your mother’s fault!”

If it wasn’t for the mother-in-law insisting on getting rid of those children, they wouldn’t have to worry about the 150,000 dollars dowry.

They had been working on the farm their whole life. With the eldest daughter’s dowry money and earnings from the second daughter, their lives had been alright. They even managed to take out 100,000 dollars for their son to buy a house, but they still had to pay the mortgage every month. Facing the substantial dowry of 150,000 dollars, the two felt suffocated.

Gregory Diet sighed, “What’s the point of saying this now!”

If he had known that his daughters would be worth so much, that they could exchange for 150,000 dollars in dowry, he would never have allowed his mother to dispose of the newborn daughters.

Now thinking of it, the only thing he felt was regret, nothing but regret!

Just then, the phone rang again.

Gregory Diet picked up the phone, but the man on the other end was still the one from before, “Gregory Diet, right? I’m from the police station. Did you lose your fifth daughter? If you’re worried about me being a scammer, you can come to the town police station tomorrow!”

Gregory Diet came back to the yard with a puzzled face.

Beatrice asked, “Is it still a scammer who called?”

Gregory Diet scratched his head, “If it’s a scammer, they wouldn’t dare to let me go to the police station, right? Qi Bao’s mother, do you think our fifth daughter could still be alive? And that she’s really come to find us?”

Hearing this, Beatrice became very excited, “Who knows! Why don’t we go to the town police station tomorrow and ask?”

To the couple now, the fifth daughter was no longer just their child, she was the walking 150,000 dollars.

As long as they found her, their son’s dowry money would be possible!

“Okay!” Gregory Diet nodded.

The couple agreed to go to the police station in person tomorrow.

Meanwhile, Rachel Barton, who was having dinner with Viola Thompson and others, also received a phone call from the police station.

After answering the call, Rachel became very excited, “Really?! Officer Blogger?”

Officer Blogger, on the other end of the phone, continued, “Rachel, don’t get too excited yet. After the initial comparison, the couple might be your biological parents, but we still need to do further verification. If there’s any news, I’ll inform you as soon as possible.”

“Alright, thank you, Officer Blogger!”

Still very excited even after hanging up the phone, Rachel asked Viola, “What’s got you so happy?”

Rachel looked at Viola, trying to suppress her excitement, “Viola, I might have found my biological parents!”
