Substitute Marriage: Reborn As The Top Big-Shot

Even though Sylvia Thompson was uncertain whether Viola Thompson was really Viola.

But every time she saw Viola Thompson, she felt a sense of crisis in her heart.

Plus, Viola Thompson did indeed have a scar on her arm.

Which made Sylvia Thompson dislike Viola Thompson even more.

Therefore.

She absolutely could not let Mrs. Thompson see Viola Thompson, nor could she let Mrs. Thompson know her.

Mrs. Thompson was different from Mary Perryne.

Mary Perryne could be easily fooled.

But not Mrs. Thompson.

Mrs. Thompson was definitely not so easy to fool.

Seeing Sylvia Thompson suddenly appear in front of her, Mrs. Thompson slightly frowned and pushed her away, Youre in my way.

Sylvia Thompsons face darkened.

She knew.

No matter what she did, Mrs. Thompson would never approve of her.

Like now.

She had put all her filial piety into having Mrs. Thompson eat a warm pancake.

But what about Mrs. Thompson?

She pushed her away outright.

Was this something a grandma should do?

Elizabeth Thompson kept her eyes downcast.

There was only disappointment in her eyes.

Mrs. Thompson looked back into the crowd.

But there was no sign of the girl who was just there.

Mrs. Thompson slightly furrowed her brows, the disdain in her eyes for Sylvia Thompson increased.

Grandma, pancake. Sylvia Thompson held the pancake in front of Mrs. Thompson.

l dont want it. Mrs. Thompson refused outright.

Sylvia Thompson, suppressing the hurt in her heart, her eyes slightly red, Grandma, didnt you use to love pancakes? Not anymore. Mrs. Thompson responded.

It wasnt that she didnt like it now.

Sylvia Thompson knew very well that Mrs. Thompson did not stop liking pancakes but rather, she disliked her.

Seeing Sylvia Thompson acting as if she was at her wits end, Mrs. Thompson slightly frowned.

Sylvia Thompson was always like this.

She hadnt even said anything and Sylvia Thompson had already started to cry.

Always looking like she had been wronged, as if she, her grandmother, was very wicked.

This was also one of the reasons why Mrs. Thompson disliked Sylvia Thompson.

At this moment, Mary Perryne came running over.

Sylvia! Where did you go? Ive been looking for you inside for a long time!

Seeing Mary Perryne, Sylvia Thompsons eyes slightly narrowed and she felt a sense of dread.

Thankfully.

Mary Perryne wasnt beside Mrs. Thompson just now.

If Mary Perryne had seen Viola Thompson, she would definitely have taken the initiative to greet her. And then, Mrs. Thompson would surely have started doubting the identity of Viola Thompson.

No.

She couldnt stay here any longer.

What if she met Viola Thompson?

Sylvia Thompson smiled and said, A little kid inside couldnt find his parents just now, so I helped him look for his mom and dad.

Hearing that it was a child who couldnt find his parents, Mary Perryne became somewhat anxious. After all, she was a woman who had lost her daughter before, so she immediately asked: Did you find them in the end?

Yes, they were found. Sylvia Thompson nodded.

After hearing this, Mary Perryne let out a sigh of relief, Thats good.

Sylvia Thompson continued, Mother, weve been around Little South Street for a while now, how about we accompany Grandma to the Talent Building to listen to stand-up comedy?

That sounds good. Mary Perryne nodded.

Mrs. Thompson glanced at Mary Perryne, l can listen to the stand-up comedy by myself, you two dont need to come along.

Out of sight, out of mind.

Mrs. Thompson really enjoyed stand-up comedy, and she didnt want Sylvia Thompson to ruin her mood.

Mary Perryne was somewhat worried, Can you manage by yourself? What do you take me for, a cripple? Mrs. Thompson shot back.

Mary Perryne responded, Just be careful by yourself then, call if anything happens.

Mrs. Thompson nodded, turned around and left.

Looking at Mrs. Thompsons retreating figure, Sylvia Thompsons eyes began to well up with tears, Mom, Im sorry..

Mary Perryne turned to Sylvia Thompson, Whats the matter with you, why are you suddenly apologizing?

Its all because of me that Grandma is so cold towards you, perhaps Sylvia Thompsons voice trailed off, tears of disappointment running down her face like broken pearls.

Mary Perryne knew Sylvia Thompson was feeling aggrieved. She embraced her in her arms.

Good child, this has nothing to do with you, thats just how your Grandma is.

Sylvia Thompson continued, If you hadnt adopted me back then, perhapsbender

Grandma wouldnt dislike you so much.

Sylvia Thompson, with a pitiful tone, not only made Mrs. Thompson out to be a wicked grandmother, but also painted Mrs. Thompson as a wicked mother-in-law.

Actually, your Grandma isnt bad, she just wants to find Viola back really badly.

Upon hearing the name Viola, a glimmer of light flashed in Sylvia Thompsons eyes..
