Substitute Marriage: Reborn As The Top Big-Shot

Chapter 629: 213: Collapse, Olivia Cooper is none other than Pearl (second update).

Listening to Howard’s words, Edward Thompson felt helpless.

He didn’t understand why everyone was targeting Sylvia Thompson now.

Was it because Sylvia was Nidya’s daughter?

But at that time, Sylvia was just a baby, she had no choice.

Edward originally thought Howard would understand him.

Unexpectedly, Howard was no different than the others.

Sheep following the herd.

This disappointed Edward greatly.

Edward tried to calm himself down, lowering his voice: “Howard, you’ve known Sylvia for quite some time. I think you should know what kind of person she is! Sylvia being kicked out of the house is already miserable enough! Are you trying to drive her to death?”

Howard frowned slightly, “Edward, you’re too impulsive and emotional. Who is Sylvia? She’s the daughter of a murderer, she and the murderer conspired together to deceive your family. Your parents not holding her accountable is already the greatest mercy!”

At this point, Howard continued, “You’re a public figure; have you ever considered the consequences of your actions?”

“I know, I’m very clear, I’m not a three-year-old child!” freewebnøvel.com

Howard rubbed her temples.

Edward was an artist she personally fostered. Originally, Howard didn’t want to sign Edward, but Sawyer Thompson repeatedly stepped in. On account of the long-time friendship, she reluctantly signed him. Later, Edward didn’t disappoint her.

Although his talent was not enough, he worked hard. Over the years, with the support of his family, his few films have been major hits.

But Edward seemed to have forgotten.

His success was all because of his family’s merits, the support of Thompson Group, and his title as the third son of the Thompson Clan.

“Edward…”

Howard wanted to say more, but Edward hung up the phone.

Looking at the disconnected call, Howard frowned slightly.

This Edward was becoming more and more unreasonable!

As soon as Edward hung up the phone, Sylvia came over with teary eyes, “Brother, you should just distance yourself from me. I’m sorry…it’s all my fault.”

“Sylvia, what are you talking about! We’re siblings! No matter when, I will never abandon you!”

He was different from those people in Thompson Clan.

He had a heart and feelings.

He valued loyalty!

…

Today is Olivia Cooper’s memorial service.

Many people came to the scene.

Everyone was there to see off such a pitiful young girl.

The scene was very quiet.

So quiet that only soft sobbing could be heard.

It was clear skies yesterday, but today it was overcast with a drizzle in the air.

It seemed as if even heaven itself was weeping for the pitiful child.

In the crowd.

The girl wore a black shirt, her hair in a neat bun, holding an umbrella with one hand while the other held a leash of a black large dog.

Step by step, they walked towards the Memorial Hall.

Although there was no expression on her face, it was enveloped in a layer of cold frost.

“Miss Thompson!”

Just then, someone in the crowd recognized her.

Viola Thompson glanced back.

It was Barbara Will, the mother seeking her lost child.

Barbara came to Capital City two days ago and learned of Olivia’s death upon her arrival.

Although Olivia was not her daughter, Barbara felt great sympathy for the poor girl and decided to attend the memorial service before leaving.

“Mrs. Price.”

Barbara’s eyes were a bit red, “Miss Thompson, you’re here to attend Olivia’s memorial service too.”

“Yes.” Viola nodded, looking at her, “If only you had come sooner.”

For some reason, Viola always thought that Barbara was Olivia’s birth mother.

At that time, she had been urging Barbara to come to Capital City as soon as possible to do the parent-child identification with Olivia, but Barbara was too busy.

“Miss Thompson, Olivia’s death saddens me. Although the identification result has not been released yet, I can feel that she’s not my Pearl. Even if I had come earlier, the tragic incident would not have been avoided.”

Because nothing matched between Olivia and Pearl except for a double helix.

If Olivia was Pearl, Barbara would have come to Capital City already.

She visited all the children who resembled Pearl before coming here.

Because for Olivia, the hope was the smallest.

Barbara continued, “The identification results will be out soon, and I booked a train ticket to City Yale tomorrow. I heard there’s a child whose situation is very similar to Pearl’s.”

“I hope you find Pearl soon.”

Barbara nodded, “Thank you.”

At that moment, Police Officer Ling, dressed in her uniform, came running over.

“Are you Barbara Will?”

“Yes.” Barbara nodded.

Ling showed her police badge and continued: “I am officer Ling from the city police department. You did a parent-child identification with Olivia Cooper two days ago, right?”

“Yes.”

Facing Barbara, Ling had complex eyes and knew of this mother’s story.

She was very unfortunate.

And very difficult.

Her only daughter was lost, her husband remarried, and everyone in the world had forgotten Pearl’s existence, except for her, who was constantly searching.

But it’s a pity.

Life is cruel after all.

Officer Ling continued, “Mrs. Will, what I’m about to tell you might be cruel. Please be prepared mentally.”

Barbara was a bit confused.

A bad feeling suddenly rose in her heart.

Viola frowned slightly.

Could it be…

Officer Ling took out a DNA test report, “After comparison, you are Olivia Cooper’s birth mother.”
