Chapter 222: 122: Sylvia Thompson was directly stunned!

Translator: 549690339

Although he hadn’t met the girl yet, Samuel Thompson was already filled with animosity towards her.

Such a person, without even thinking about it, must be after Edward Thompson’s money.

Sylvia Thompson gently shook Edward Thompson’s hand, “Brother, did you hear what I told you?”

Edward Thompson nodded, “I know, you little nagging woman.”

“You’re the nagging one!” Sylvia continued to admonish: “Do not tell our second brother at all.’

“I know, I know.”

Watching Edward Thompson’s back, Sylvia’s lips lifted slightly, her eyes full of malicious glints.

If Edward Thompson turned back at this moment, he would surely see a Sylvia completely different from the usual one.

Edward Thompson arrived at the studio and knocked on the door.

Samuel Thompson opened the door, and upon seeing Edward Thompson, he said in surprise, “Bob? I thought you were filming out of town. When did you come back?”

“Just got back,” Edward Thompson replied.

Samuel Thompson hugged Edward Thompson tightly.

Although the two brothers hadn’t seen each other for a long time, their friendship remained the same.

Everything was still like before.

After exchanging some pleasantries, Edward Thompson asked, “Samuel, when do you plan to go back this time?”

“Grandmother is getting old, and it’s not easy for her to come and stay with us for a while, so I don’t plan to go back for some time,” Samuel Thompson replied.

It’s said that the tree longs for quietude but the wind won’t subside, and the child longs for nourishment but the parent won’t stay.

In the time left, he didn’t want to do anything he would regret.

Edward Thompson nodded, “Actually, I also want to accompany grandmother.”

But he didn’t have such a deep relationship with Mrs. Thompson, and furthermore, Mrs. Thompson was always making life difficult for Sylvia, which led Edward Thompson to harbor even more resentment towards Mrs. Thompson.

Edward Thompson continued, “It’s not that grandmother isn’t good, she’s just too old-fashioned and somewhat ungrateful.”

Ungrateful.

Hearing this, Samuel Thompson immediately turned back to look at Edward Thompson, “How can you speak of grandmother like that?” Elders are elders, after all.

It was inappropriate for Edward Thompson to speak so wildly.

Besides, Mrs. Thompson was a fair and loving grandmother.

Edward Thompson sighed, “You’ve been away from home for so many years and have no idea what’s happened here. Samuel, don’t worry, listen to me slowly. It’s true that grandmother treats us grandchildren well, but she is cold and indifferent to Sylvia, like a stranger.”

“Although Sylvia is not related to her by blood, Sylvia has still called her ‘Grandmother’ for so many years and has been so filial to her. However, what has she done in return?”

Thinking of those events, Edward Thompson was furious.

Mrs. Thompson was simply going too far!

There isn’t a single grandmother in this world like her.

Edward Thompson continued, “I never said that Viola is not our sister, but it seems that grandmother only remembers that Viola is her granddaughter. Her actions are really heartbreaking.”

Samuel Thompson furrowed his eyebrows slightly, looking at Edward

Thompson, he asked, “Did grandmother abuse Sylvia?”

“Well…” Edward hesitated for a moment, “Not that, either.’

Samuel Thompson asked again, “What about our parents? What’s their attitude?”

“Our parents have been great, and they’ve always treated Sylvia as their own,” regarding this, Edward Thompson was very relieved.

If Sawyer Thompson and Mary Perryne acted the same way as Mrs. Thompson, then Sylvia would truly be pitiable.

Samuel Thompson continued, “Did grandmother ever scold Sylvia?”

“It doesn’t seem so,” Edward Thompson scratched his head.

After that, Edward Thompson continued, “Even though grandmother didn’t use physical violence, verbal violence is still violence. She ignored Sylvia every time, which made Sylvia very upset. She just values blood ties too much! Sylvia may not be her biological granddaughter, but does it make her worse than a real one?”

It’s true that Viola Thompson is Mrs. Thompson’s biological granddaughter.

But Viola has been missing for eight years!

She’s gone entirely, and whether she’s alive or dead is unknown. How could she possibly be better than a real, living person?

Every time Edward Thompson thought of this, he felt Mrs. Thompson’s behavior was ridiculous.

Edward Thompson looked at Samuel Thompson, “Samuel, you’re too impulsive, you can’t impose your thoughts on our grandmother, after all, everyone is an individual. Have you ever thought about why grandmother doesn’t like Sylvia, and whether there might be some problems with Sylvia’s part as well?”

Samuel Thompson was much calmer than Edward Thompson, “After all, there’s no hate without reason in this world, and there’s no dislike without reason..”
