Substitute Marriage: Reborn As The Top Big-Shot

Sylvia was at fault.

But not to this extent!

“Dad, but Sylvia was used by others!”

“Whether she was being used or not, she should know in her heart. Even if she didn’t know anything, this incident is still because of her! Bob, this didn’t happen to you, so you can’t empathize with your brother or forgive her on his behalf!”

Sylvia Thompson was not entirely innocent in reaching this point today.

Hearing this, Bob immediately said, “If I were in my brother’s position, I would never haggle with Sylvia.”

The reason Samuel Thompson could not forgive Sylvia up until now was because Viola Thompson had stirred things up. If she hadn’t interfered, he would have forgiven Sylvia long ago.

Sawyer Thompson said, “Those that don’t know pain shouldn’t try to persuade others to be good.”

Bob knew that he couldn’t reason with his father. He took a deep breath and said, “Dad, I have some things to take care of, I’ll be going first.”

“Go.” Disgust filled Sawyer Thompson’s eyes.

…

Ever since Sylvia was kicked out of the Thompson family, Aunt Zhang’s mood had been terrible.

In the past, no matter what mistake Sylvia made, the Thompson family had never treated her like this.

But this time.

They actually drove Sylvia away directly.

This also made Aunt Zhang feel a sense of crisis.

As Aunt Zhang was lost in thought, Nanny Donne came over with a smile, “Aunt Zhang.”

“What’s the matter, Jocelyn?” Aunt Zhang came back to her senses and looked at Nanny Donne.

Nanny Donne smiled and said, “What are you thinking about, so engrossed!”

“Ah, nothing.” Aunt Zhang finally came to her senses.

Nanny Donne chatted idly for a while before asking, “Has your husband stopped hitting you recently?”

Hearing this, Aunt Zhang sighed first and then said, “He hasn’t hit me, but he has hit my daughter …”

Nanny Donne widened her eyes in disbelief, “He actually hit your daughter?”

Aunt Zhang nodded.

At this point, Aunt Zhang seemed like a good person. No one would have thought that the person who actually abused Olivia Cooper was her.

Nanny Donne frowned, “Why are you still living with a man like that?”

Aunt Zhang looked pitiful, her eyes red and said, “I’m afraid to divorce. If I don’t divorce now, my child and I still have at least one life, but if I do, I’m afraid we won’t even have a life.”

Nanny Donne also sighed, then asked, “Was he heavy-handed when he hit your child?”

“When he’s drunk, he doesn’t know how heavy to be. I can’t stop him. It’s all my fault. If I had known it would be like this, I never would have brought her back to suffer in the first place!”

Nanny Donne comforted, “If you really don’t want to divorce, just bear with it for a while longer. It will be better once your child grows up.”

Aunt Zhang nodded.

Nanny Donne’s gaze fell on Aunt Zhang’s nails and she continued, “Aunt Zhang, haven’t you trimmed your nails for a few days?”

Aunt Zhang lowered her head to look at her nails.

Nanny Donne handed over a nail clipper, “Quickly trim your nails, so the housekeeper doesn’t discover it and deduct your salary.”

Housemaids working in the Thompson family were not allowed to have long nails.

Because it was unsanitary.

Aunt Zhang took the nail clipper and began to trim her nails.

Her nails hadn’t been cut for more than ten days. She had planned to trim them in the last couple of days, but because of Sylvia’s incident, she had no intention to do so, and it was left until now.

Soon, Aunt Zhang finished trimming her nails and handed the nail clipper back to Nanny Donne, “Thank you, Jocelyn.”

Jocelyn smiled and said, “No need for thanks.”

At this moment, a voice came from outside the break room, “Is Aunt Zhang here?”

Aunt Zhang immediately perked up, “Yes?”

It was Julie outside, “Aunt Zhang, it’s time for me to get off work. There’s soup stewing in the kitchen, can you please send it to the madam?”

“Alright.”

After saying this, Aunt Zhang went to the kitchen.

Nanny Donne said somewhat speechlessly, “This Julie always picks on the easy targets. She knows you’re easygoing, so she comes to find you! There are still ten minutes before her shift is over.”

Aunt Zhang had an indulgent look on her face, smiling and saying, “No problem, it’s a blessing to suffer losses.”

No matter when, she always appeared to be hardworking and willing to endure in front of others.

Even if she was taken advantage of, she didn’t argue with others.

This led to everyone having a good impression of Aunt Zhang during Viola Thompson’s investigation, whether they were Thompson family housemaids or Aunt Zhang’s neighbors in the city.

Hearing this, Nanny Donne shook her head helplessly, “Aunt Zhang, you really are too kind!”
