Substitute Marriage: Reborn As The Top Big-Shot - Chapter 565
Chapter 565: 198: The Mystery of Liu Sisi’s Background (Part Eleven)
Between adults, words need not be too explicit.
Just a hint will do.
Since Viola Thompson didn’t know any medical skills at all.
Why did she lie about it in front of Jason Wycof? Her intention was quite obvious.
Upon hearing this,
Jason was first taken aback, then laughed and said, “It’s fine, she’s just a kid.”
He wouldn’t hold a grudge against a child.
Edward Thompson also laughed, “She’s not just any child, though.”
If Jason regarded Viola as a naive child, he would definitely be deceived by her.
Jason frowned imperceptibly.
Although he had only met Viola once, his impression of her was quite good.
She was very different from ordinary girls.
Edward continued, “Governor Lu, don’t you think my little sister is different from other girls?”
Jason didn’t reply.
Edward drained his glass of strong alcohol and said, “That’s where her skills lie.”
Jason didn’t say anything more and finished his drink.
It was a light peach flavored fruit beverage.
Edward was Viola’s biological brother.
By rights,
A brother shouldn’t spread gossip about his sister.
After all,
They gain and lose together.
Could it be that Viola really didn’t know any medical skills?
Was all of this just a ploy by her to catch his attention?
At this point, Edward said, “Governor Lu, you’re an important person. Don’t let a little girl affect your mood.”
After saying these words, Edward turned and left.
Jason also sat down.
The Thompson siblings.
Quite interesting.
If Viola was indeed trying to catch his attention, he had to admit that the girl’s tactics were too ingenious.
Even he didn’t notice any flaws.
At this thought,
Jason narrowed his eyes.
Mandel Thompson was also wandering around the banquet hall with a drink in hand.
On one hand, he was truly happy.
After all, the College Entrance Examination top scorer was his own sister.
On the other hand, as the head of the Leap Group and the eldest son of the Thompson Clan, he had to make sure all the guests were properly attended to.
Soon enough,
Mandel’s footsteps became a bit unsteady.
He felt a little dizzy too.
“Brother,” Sylvia Thompson approached and asked worriedly, “Have you had too much to drink?”
“It’s fine,” Mandel shook his head, “Not too much.”
Sylvia continued, “Let me get you some sobering tea.”
“No need,” Mandel said, holding his wine glass.
Sylvia clearly felt that ever since Viola returned, Mandel’s attitude towards her had changed.
Before, Mandel was not particularly nice to her.
But he had a cold and aloof demeanor towards everyone.
And now,
Viola had become an exception.
Mandel was very nice to his sister Viola.
He would practically do anything she asked.
Thinking of this, Sylvia narrowed her eyes, filled with discontent.
“Sylvia,”
At this moment, she heard Samuel Thompson’s voice.
“Borden,”
Sylvia turned around.
Samuel then asked, “Sylvia, have you seen Viola?”
Viola!
Again with Viola!
Sylvia felt that one day, she would be driven out of the Thompson Clan by Viola.
No.
She couldn’t let this happen.
Sylvia tried to calm herself down, and her gaze suddenly fell on a nearby figure.
Sylvia walked over to her.
“Sister Pag,”
“Sylvia!”
Pag Gar had grown up with Mandel and had a secret crush on Samuel since childhood.
Unfortunately,
Heaven had intentions, but Samuel was indifferent.
Faced with Pag’s pursuit, Samuel decisively rejected her every time.
But this didn’t dampen Pag’s love for Samuel.
She still loved Samuel in her own way, and any girl who approached him would receive her warning immediately.
“Sister Pag, when did you arrive?” Sylvia affectionately held Pag’s arm.
Pag said, “I just arrived not too long ago. Oh, is your Borden not here tonight?”
As she spoke, she searched for Samuel’s figure.
Sylvia smiled and said, “My brother Borden has had quite a bit to drink tonight and seems a little drunk. He’s over there.”
Hearing the news that Samuel had drunk too much, Pag was very worried.
Drinking too much was bad for one’s health, and what if Samuel threw up?
Sylvia handed Pag a glass of wine. As she passed the wine, she leaned closer to Pag’s ear and whispered, “Sister Pag, I can help you.”
Upon hearing these words, Pag narrowed her eyes and looked at Sylvia.
“Help me with what?”
Sylvia smiled and whispered, “Help you become my sister-in-law. Samuel’s wife.”
