WhatsApp scan completed.
Seeing Mrs. Thompson’s WhatsApp name, Viola couldn’t help but smile.
The old lady really never gets old.
Her WhatsApp display name was [It’s Beauty Thompson! ]
“Viola, what are you laughing about?” Mrs. Thompson continued: “I’m not bragging, honey. Back when I was young, those who pursued me lined up hand in hand and could go around Capital City for several rounds!”
In the end, Mrs. Thompson raised her head proudly and added, “By the way, I had a nickname, Beautiful Thompson.”
Viola’s lips curled into a shallow dimple, “What a coincidence, Granny. I share the same nickname with you.”
Viola is also called Beautiful Thompson?
Hearing this, Sylvia’s eyes were full of sarcasm. Viola sure knows how to get close to others.
Even daring to spout such nonsense about having the same nickname.
Does she really think everyone is a fool?
Upon hearing this, Mrs. Thompson said in surprise, “Really? Viola, are you also called Beautiful Thompson?”
Viola raised her eyebrows slightly, “Am I not pretty?”
“You are,” Mrs. Thompson nodded, “Even more beautiful than when I was young.”
Viola is not her biological granddaughter.
If Viola were her biological granddaughter, she would laugh in her dreams.
“Beauty Thompson, I must be leaving now. Looking forward to your visit to River City with Auntie, and your three brothers and Sylvia.”
“Yeah, we’ll definitely go.” Mrs. Thompson nodded.
After saying goodbye, Viola turned and left.
Mrs. Thompson watched her back for a long time.
After a moment, she turned her head to look at Mary Perryne and said, “Viola is really a good girl!’
It’s not easy to win Mrs. Thompson’s approval.
Viola is one of the rare few.
Mary chuckled, “So do you believe now that she is more beautiful than Bettye McMillan?”
“l believe it!” Mrs. Thompson nodded.
At this time, Edward Thompson came over and said, “Granny, Mom, don’t be fooled by appearances. Some people may look pretty on the outside but are incapable of doing anything. Don’t be deceived.”
Mrs. Thompson frowned slightly, turned her head to look at Edward, and said, “Speak clearly.”
“What do you mean?” Edward did not understand the meaning of Mrs. Thompson’s words at first.
Mrs. Thompson continued, “When you speak, you should have evidence. You cannot slander someone without proof. What has Viola done to you that makes you speak ill of her ?”
At this point, Mrs. Thompson glanced at Sylvia, “Or did someone talk behind her back in front of you?”
Sylvia immediately clarified, “Granny, I didn’t.”
Why would Mrs. Thompson suspect Sylvia first without any evidence of her doing anything wrong?
“Did I mention your name?” Mrs. Thompson continued, “Why are you so eager to take it personally?”
Sylvia felt extremely wronged, and her eyes turned red.
Mrs. Thompson frowned imperceptibly and continued, “Edward, you’re already an adult. You should have the ability to discern right from wrong and have your own judgment. Don’t just believe whatever others say! A grown man with such persuasive ears will be laughed at if word gets out!”
“No one has said anything to me, I have my own eyes to see who’s good and bad.” Edward was very dissatisfied with Mrs. Thompson’s attitude towards Sylvia, “Instead, Granny, you should take a closer look at who truly cares for you. A good word is like warming the soul for three winters, while a bad one hurts like six months of cold!”
Why would Mrs. Thompson suspect Sylvia?
After all, Sylvia hadn’t said a single bad word about Viola from start to finish.
On the contrary, it was probably Viola who had stirred up trouble in front of Mrs. Thompson, otherwise, she wouldn’t be making things difficult for Sylvia.
“Are you teaching me how to handle things?” Mrs. Thompson frowned.
Mary knew that the old lady was genuinely angry and immediately said, “Edward, how could you speak to your grandma like that? Apologize to her quickly!’
Mrs. Thompson couldn’t stand disrespectful youngsters.
Edward also got a little angry at Mrs. Thompson, “Sorry, Granny. 1 spoke without thinking. Please don’t take it to heart.”
Mrs. Thompson glanced at Edward and said nothing further. She turned and went upstairs.
Out of sight, out of mind.
After Mrs. Thompson left, Mary continued, “Edward, next time you speak to your grandma, remember to mind your manners. Don’t be disrespectful and say anything that comes to your mind.”
“l just couldn’t help it!” Edward continued, “Mom, I’m telling you very seriously, Viola is definitely getting close to you with a purpose. You should keep your distance from her in the future..”
