And the jade bracelets on her wrist.
This set of jewelry…
Sylvia Thompson recognized it.
It belonged to Mrs. Thompson and was the heirloom treasure of the Thompson Clan, worth billions.
But now, these items had unexpectedly appeared on Viola Thompson.
With the heirloom treasures of the Thompson Clan on Viola, what was the point of her wearing them?
Logically speaking, Mrs. Thompson had two granddaughters, and these items should have been divided between her and Viola, each getting half.
But what about now?
Mrs. Thompson had actually given all of these items to Viola.
Bias.
So biased!
The old lady was really dead set on being biased.
Standing beside Viola, Mrs. Thompson, despite her white hair, looked very spirited. She rarely wore a red cheongsam, with a dark shawl draped around her shoulders, and a red flower on her snowy white hair.
The picture of them standing together was heartwarming.
It truly embodied that saying.
Don’t laugh at the white-haired wearing flowers, for time never defeats a beauty.
Edward Thompson noticed the jewelry on Viola and frowned slightly.
He originally thought that Mrs. Thompson would give these items to Sylvia Thompson.
First, these items were the heirloom treasures of the Thompson Clan.
Since they were to be passed down, they should naturally go to someone of high status to continue the legacy.
Second, Sylvia was the granddaughter whom Mrs. Thompson had raised by her side since childhood. Besides, Mrs. Thompson had been unfair to Sylvia all these years, so it was only right to give these items to Sylvia as compensation.
But now…
Did Mrs. Thompson intend to give the heirloom treasures to Viola?
If Viola knew the true value of these jewels, would she be able to continue the inheritance?
Confused.
Mrs. Thompson was really confused!
Elena Williams looked at Viola and was almost stunned. After a while, she said, “Viola looks so beautiful today! She will definitely shine more than any other. This set of jewelry suits you, Mom, you’ve found the right person to inherit it!”
Penny Kalafatis smiled and nodded.
Neither of the two sisters-in-law ever entertained the thought of laying claim to this set of jewelry, because they knew that Mrs. Thompson would definitely keep it for her only granddaughter.
Besides, Viola was originally the only granddaughter of the entire Thompson Clan. It was not surprising that Mrs. Thompson left the jewelry to her.
Did the title of the Thompson Clan’s little princess come for nothing?
Mrs. Thompson laughed, “I’ve always said that Viola looks beautiful with it on, but this girl thinks the jade is too flashy and is afraid she can’t pull it off!”
Penny followed up, “Viola is so pretty, is there anything she can’t pull off?”
Mrs. Thompson was overjoyed, “Penny speaks so well, say more!”
She just loved hearing people praise Viola.
Penny was indeed a smooth talker, “Mom, I’m not being smooth, I’m just stating facts!”
Edward Thompson quietly squeezed Sylvia’s hand and comforted her in a low voice, “Grandma is confused, that’s why she gave these heirlooms to Viola. Don’t bother with a confused person, I’ll buy you better ones in the future!”
Sylvia was sensible and generous, “Those heirlooms are supposed to be my sister’s, after all, only she is grandma’s real granddaughter.”
She was just the Thompson Clan’s Adopted Daughter.
Edward’s heart ached when he heard this.
He secretly vowed in his heart that he would always protect Sylvia well in the future.
The banquet was reserved at the most luxurious five-star hotel in Capital City.
Tonight, the entire hotel building was booked by Sawyer Thompson.
So, all the guests were from the Thompson Clan.Soon, all kinds of luxury cars were parked outside the hotel.
Sylvia Thompson held a wine glass, walking around the banquet hall.
“Sylvia.”
At that moment, a girl in an evening gown stopped her.
Sylvia turned around, smiling, and said, “Iris.”
The girl was Iris White.
She was also one of Sylvia’s many close friends.
Iris glanced around the corners of the banquet hall, then said, “How come I haven’t seen your new sister?”
Iris was a fan of Edward Thompson and had liked him since she was a child.
Unfortunately, Edward had no interest in her and wasn’t even willing to give her a glance, so she had no choice but to start with Sylvia.
Because she knew that Edward was obsessed with spoiling his sister.
As expected, after getting closer to Sylvia, Edward’s attitude towards her changed dramatically, and he was even willing to talk to her. The two even added each other on WhatsApp.
Although they never chatted on WhatsApp, Iris was already very satisfied to be the first to like and comment on Edward’s Facebook posts.
Sylvia looked at Iris, deep in thought.
Some things are always left with traces when done by oneself.
It’s better to borrow someone else’s hand.
Moreover.
Dealing with someone like Viola Thompson, should she do it herself, would only dirty her hands.
Sylvia said, “I think she’s putting on makeup.”
Iris looked at Sylvia and asked again, “Sylvia, where’s your brother? How come I haven’t seen him?”
As it happened.
Edward Thompson happened to be walking over at that moment, “Sylvia.”
“Emperor Thompson!” Iris saw her idol and her eyes lit up as she greeted him softly.
Edward smiled at Iris.
Sylvia affectionately hooked her arm around Edward’s, “Bro, have you seen sister?”
Mentioning Viola, Edward had an unhappy expression on his face, “How could I have seen her!”
“Bro, today is sister’s Family Reunion Banquet, don’t be like this.” Sylvia pulled on Edward’s hand, softly reminding him.
Edward patted Sylvia’s head, “I’ll go say hi to Director Wang, and I’ll be back in a while.”
Watching Edward’s departing figure, Iris tentatively asked, “Sylvia, does your brother not like your new sister?”
Hearing this, Sylvia’s face showed a troubled expression and she nodded, “Yeah, my brother seems to have some sort of misunderstanding towards my sister.”
Iris recalled the comments below Edward’s Facebook post, and continued, “I heard your sister came back from a rural village, right?”
She had only doubted it before, but now it seemed that Viola really was from a rural village.
“Yep.” Sylvia nodded.
Iris narrowed her eyes.
No wonder Edward disliked Viola.
As a big movie star, Edward could have anything he wanted in the entertainment industry, but he ended up with a sister from a rural village.
A rural villager, after all,
Most of them are vulgar and lack any upbringing.
No one would like this kind of person.
Suddenly, Sylvia grabbed Iris’s hand, “Iris, are you planning to do something to my sister? That’s not okay! Tonight is her Family Reunion Banquet, if something really happened, she wouldn’t be able to face anyone! Although my brother really dislikes her and wants to drive her away, she is still my brother’s biological sister.”
Iris narrowed her eyes. Sylvia’s words just reminded her.
Edward must have wanted to drive Viola out of the house long ago, but couldn’t find a suitable reason.
If Viola were to cause a scandal at this time, wouldn’t Edward have a reason to send her away?
Iris looked at Sylvia, laughing, and said, “Sylvia, what are you thinking! What can I do to your sister?”
A rustic woman with no upbringing, the scandal she brings upon herself, what does it have to do with her?
