On the other side at the Lentz’s.
The Lentz clan is all still here today.
But it’s almost half past eleven, and Terrence hasn’t brought anyone home yet. Eleanor Armstrong is getting a little anxious, frequently checking her wristwatch.
According to the schedule, he should have picked up the person by now.
Why hasn’t there been any movement until now?
Charlotte Young laughingly said, “Mom, don’t worry. What should come will come. No use getting anxious over some things.”
A play on words.
What is supposed to arrive?
Of course, it is the canceling of the marriage!
Why hasn’t Viola Thompson appeared until now? She must have explained everything clearly to Terrence and then left.
Sophie nodded, “What my sister-in-law said is correct.”
“Mom, I’m hungry,” At this time, Sophie’s six-year-old son, Lennon Lentz, reached for a fruit from the coffee table, but Sophie slapped his hand away, “You thoughtless thing, were these fruits prepared for you? Eating indiscriminately isn’t good for your stomach!”
Eleanor furrowed her brows slightly. She knew that her daughter-in-law’s words were meant to annoy her. Holding back her anger, she peeled a rambutan for her grandson, “Lennon, be a good boy. Once your future third aunt arrives, we can start the meal.”
Lennon slapped away the grape Eleanor handed to him, crying as he ran upstairs, “Grandma is biased! Wah wah wah…”
Eleanor looked at Sophie, “Daughter-in-law, is this how you teach your child?”
Sophie feigned innocence, “Mom, I swear, I have never said such things to Lennon! Besides, children say the darndest things. Why are you making an issue out of it?”
Having said that, Sophie got up from the sofa, “Well, I don’t think anyone’s coming today. I have some things to do this afternoon, so I’m going upstairs to get ready.”
At this time, Charlotte started to speak, “Mom, it is not like me to say this, but it is so late. Miss Thompson is definitely not coming. If you don’t have anything else to do, I will also go upstairs.”
At this point, there were footsteps heard from outside the door.
Eleanor immediately stood up, “It must be Terrence and Viola.”
Charlotte was stunned, and turned to look back.
Are they really here?
The next second, the figure of the Housekeeper entered her sight, “Madam, the air freighted coral grouper has arrived. The kitchen is asking whether you want it as sashimi or steamed.”
Charlotte burst out laughing right away and looked at Eleanor, “Mom, the housekeeper asked for your opinion.”
Eleanor was also stunned, with an expression of disappointment in her eyes, “Whatever.”
After some thought, she added, “Cook the sauerkraut fish.”
Viola doesn’t like steamed fish.
Although it was extravagant to use coral grouper to make sauerkraut fish, if Viola liked it, she would have no problem with it.
But right now
Will Viola really come?
Eleanor was not sure.
After listening to Eleanor’s words, the housekeeper was also too stunned, “Are you sure you want to cook the sauerkraut fish?”
Using coral grouper to cook sauerkraut fish is simply a waste of food. This is just like using bird’s nest to make pickles.
It was disrespect towards food.
“Hmm.” Eleanor nodded.
“Okay, I’ll go inform the kitchen right away.”
After the housekeeper left, Eleanor sat back on the sofa disappointedly.
She was feeling all kinds of emotions.
“Mom, Dad, we’ll head upstairs first.” Charlotte continued.
Upon saying that, without waiting for Harlan Lentz & Eleanor to respond, she walked directly towards the staircase.
“Mom, Dad, Grandpa.”
“Uncles and aunts, grandpa Lentz.”
At this moment, two pleasant voices appeared in the air.
Whose voices are these
The two sisters-in-law who were standing at the stairs exchanged glances, both seeing a look of surprise in each other’s eyes.
Viola Thompson is actually here!
How is this possible!
The two of them turned their heads to look.
The girl standing beside Terrence, if not Viola Thompson, then who?
The girl was wearing a white shirt, black pants, and white sneakers.
Although she had a plain face and was dressed simply, she was stunningly beautiful as she wore a breathtaking smile on her face.
It is really Viola!
Upon seeing Viola, Eleanor was both delighted and surprised, her face filled with a look of excitement, as she immediately walked over and took Viola’s hand, “Viola! After such a long time, your aunt has missed you terribly!”
Viola gave a faint smile, dimples appeared on her face, and her beautiful peach blossom eyes seemed to draw people in, “We were supposed to arrive earlier, but Lentz’s car broke down on the way, so we were delayed a bit. I’m sorry for keeping everyone waiting.”
With that simple sentence, she explained why she was late.
“No problem at all.” Eleanor laughed, “Anyway, we weren’t in a hurry. Now that you’re here, it’s just in time, we can have lunch.”
“Hmm.”
Terrence chimed in at the right time, “Mom, dad, these are the gifts that Viola brought for you.”
