Chapter 555: 194: Stepped on a Dog Shit Luck (Updated seven times)_2
At this time, Flora Tiarks spoke up, “Mom, stop matchmaking! They don’t like it because they think Vio is wasteful with money!”
“Wasteful with money?”
If Grace White wasn’t driving, she would have wanted to kick her little brother to death.
What nonsense!
Being frugal while dating.
Grace White continued, “Little Zi, if there are any suitable girls around you, remember to introduce them to your little uncle.”
Her own brother hasn’t even dated yet, so Grace White was really anxious.
Wishing for Mr. White to get married right away.
Flora Tiarks snorted, “For me to introduce? They have to like him first! They think he’s not right for this or that, with such high standards!”
It’s not like she hadn’t introduced anyone before.
Mr. White rejected them without even seeing their faces.
On the other side.
The Thompson Clan.
Upon seeing Viola Thompson return through the surveillance footage, the housekeeper immediately informed Mrs. Thompson.
Mrs. Thompson was holding Mantou while watching TV in the living room.
Upon hearing the news, she immediately threw Mantou on the sofa, “Old Liu, what did you say?”
Mantou: “…” if you want to kill a cat, just say it.
The housekeeper smiled and said, “The young lady is back!”
“Really?”
The housekeeper nodded, “It’s true, Mrs. Thompson!”
Mrs. Thompson immediately ran outside.
Mrs. Thompson, just arrived outside and saw Viola Thompson with one hand pulling her suitcase and the other holding a dog.
“Viola!”
“Grandma!”
Mrs. Thompson hugged Viola Thompson tightly.
The servants went over to take the suitcase and the leash from Viola Thompson.
Mrs. Thompson then noticed the dog Viola brought back and asked, “Viola, is this the one you’re raising?”
Viola nodded slightly, “Yeah. This is a stray dog I found in River City. We had a strong connection, so I brought it back.”
If it were anyone else, Mrs. Thompson would have refused outright.
She didn’t like cats and dogs.
But this person is Viola!
Mrs. Thompson reached out to touch the dog’s head and said kindly, “This dog is pretty cute!”
She then immediately asked, “What’s its name?”
Viola answered, “Bread.”
Mrs. Thompson nodded, “Good, good, good. A nice name.” It looks like it belongs to the same family as Mantou.
At this moment, Mantou rushed out from the door and jumped directly onto Viola Thompson, meowing continuously.
It also kept rubbing its little head against Viola Thompson’s chin.
Just then, Mantou suddenly noticed Bread and immediately arched its back, hissing at Bread several times.
Bread sat quietly next to Viola Thompson and didn’t bark.
Viola Thompson laughed and stroked Mantou’s little head, “Don’t be afraid, you and Bread will be good friends from now on.”
Mantou jumped down from Viola Thompson and cautiously walked a few steps towards Bread. Seeing that Bread didn’t react, it stretched out its pink little paw and patted Bread’s front paw.
Bread wagged its tail in a friendly manner.
Just as Viola Thompson thought that Mantou had accepted Bread, Mantou suddenly hissed at Bread again.
Viola Thompson didn’t intervene in the two little ones’ interaction.
She went inside with Mrs. Thompson.
Bread immediately followed Viola Thompson’s footsteps.
It had a severe lack of security and clung tightly to Viola Thompson, afraid that she would abandon it in the next second.
Mantou also followed Bread’s footsteps.
Mrs. Thompson immediately arranged for the housekeeper to prepare some dog supplies.
Right then, Sylvia Thompson came down from upstairs.
Seeing the dog in the living room, she frowned imperceptibly, and then walked down, smiling, “Sister, you’re back!”
“Yes,” Viola Thompson nodded slightly.
Sylvia Thompson then pretended to notice Bread for the first time, and exclaimed in surprise, “This dog is so cute! Sister, are you keeping it?”
“Yes.”
Sylvia Thompson stretched out her hand to touch Bread, her eyes filled with sinister expression.
Why could Viola break the rules of this family?
She could do whatever she wanted!
She remembered when she was twelve years old and wanted a dog, Mary Perryne refused her outright.
From then on, in order to please Mary Perryne, she never brought up the matter of raising a dog again.
But now.
Viola Thompson had only been back for half a year.
And she was living a life with a cat and a dog!
Was it really fair to her?
Sylvia Thompson was very angry.So angry that her lungs were about to explode.
But she couldn’t vent.
Sylvia Thompson continued, “It’s so cute.”
Perhaps even the bread realized that Sylvia wasn’t genuinely fond of it, so when she stroked it, the bread didn’t respond at all.
Mrs. Thompson looked at Viola Thompson and asked, “Viola, have you eaten yet? I’ll have the kitchen send us some food.”
“No need, Grandma, I’m not hungry.” Viola, holding the bread, continued, “I’ll take the bread to get familiar with our home environment.”
Mrs. Thompson stood up from the sofa, “I’ll accompany you.”
An old lady and a young lady led the dog away, with a cat following behind, towards the garden.
Sylvia stood still, suddenly feeling like an outsider.
That’s true.
A self-mocking curve appeared on Sylvia’s mouth.
She was an outsider after all.
Only Viola and Mrs. Thompson were a true family.
Aunt Zhang on the side saw this and was heartbroken.
As a mother, she knew how devastated Sylvia must feel at this moment.
What made Aunt Zhang even more upset was that she couldn’t do anything for Sylvia.
At this moment, Aunt Zhang seemed to have thought of something, squinted her eyes, and quickly walked outside.
Soon, Aunt Zhang came back to the living room.
She looked at Sylvia.
Sylvia knew Aunt Zhang had something to talk about, so she walked in her direction.
After listening to whatever Aunt Zhang had said, Sylvia nodded, and then sat back down on the sofa.
Half an hour later.
Mary Perryne returned from work.
Sylvia immediately greeted her with a smile, taking the bag from Mary’s hand, “Mom, you’re off work.”
“Mmm.” Mary nodded.
Sylvia continued, “You’ve worked hard.”
Just as she finished speaking, Sylvia said, “By the way, Mom, my sister is back.”
Hearing this, a bright smile blossomed on Mary’s face, “Really?”
“Yeah, my sister came home an hour ago.”
“Where is Viola?” Mary asked again.
Sylvia held Mary’s wrist and said, “My sister brought a stray dog home, so she’s taking a walk with Grandma.”
After saying this, Sylvia carefully observed Mary’s facial expressions.
However, Mary didn’t get angry. She didn’t even frown.
Sylvia snorted in her heart.
She knew it.
Just wait.
She wanted to see if Mary would still be this calm in the future.
With that thought in mind.
Sylvia squinted her eyes.
At this moment, Mary’s expression changed, and she suddenly stopped
“Mom, what’s wrong?” Sylvia curiously looked at Mary.
Mary frowned slightly, “I think I stepped on something.”
It was soft.
It collapsed when she stepped on it, and it was a bit sticky.
It felt like…
Dog poop.
Thinking of this, Mary looked down.
Indeed!
She had really stepped on dog poop!
Her white shoes instantly turned black.
Emitting a terrible stench.
So disgusting!
Mary’s eyebrows instantly furrowed, and she wished she could throw her shoes away immediately.
A glimmer of light flashed in Sylvia’s eyes, and she exclaimed in surprise, “Mom, you stepped on dog poop!”
“Aunt Zhang!” Mary called.
Aunt Zhang ran over, “Madam, you called me.”
Mary covered her nose, her eyes full of disgust, “Clean this up.”
“Alright.” Aunt Zhang immediately squatted down to clean up the dog poop.
Mary didn’t even want to wear her shoes anymore, and just walked barefoot to the sofa.
Understanding, Sylvia said, “Mom, don’t blame my sister. She didn’t know that the dog would poop all over the house.”
She thought that Mary would definitely refute her words, blame Viola for being ignorant, and bring unknown dogs into the house.
Unexpectedly, however, Mary said with a smile, “Stepping on dog poop brings good luck, which means it’s a good thing!”
The smile on Sylvia’s face froze at the corner of her mouth.
