This is completely disregarding blood and family ties.
Edward Thompson banged the cup heavily on the table.
Sylvia Thompson was startled, “What’s wrong, brother?”
Edward Thompson took the car key from the table, “Sylvia, I’m going home first.”
“Okay.” Sylvia Thompson stood up and saw her brother off.
Edward didn’t go home right away but went to the Thompson Group building.
Sawyer Thompson was working in his office.
The office door was suddenly pushed open.
Sawyer Thompson frowned slightly, looked up, and saw that it was Edward, “What brings you here?”
“Dad, I have something to tell you.”
Sawyer Thompson looked up at the secretary next to him.
The secretary immediately understood, turned, left the office, and closed the door.
“What do you want to say?” Sawyer asked.
Edward Thompson tried to suppress the anger within him, “Dad, do you know where Sylvia is living now?”
“Ideal Apartment.” Sawyer answered.
Edward was stunned, “You know?”
Sawyer nodded. Of course, he knew. Sylvia was his daughter, even without a blood tie, he had raised her for so many years. So, as soon as Sylvia moved into the Ideal Apartment, Sawyer received the news.
As a father, Sawyer naturally needed to keep an eye on his daughter’s safety.
Punishment is one thing.
Edward continued, “Since you know where Sylvia is living, why don’t you provide her with a better environment?”
“What’s wrong with Ideal Apartment? It has water, electricity, internet, and fully furnished home appliances! Other people can live there. Why can’t she?” Sawyer retorted.
Edward took a deep breath, “Today I went to Sylvia’s place. It’s less than 70 square meters, with just a living room, bedroom, kitchen, and bathroom, no study, no café, not even a yoga room! Dad, how can you let Sylvia, a girl being alone, live in such a place?”
“She’s your daughter! Don’t you feel sorry for her at all?”
At the end, Edward’s eyes were filled with reproachful expressions.
“One person living in 70 square meters isn’t enough? Do you know that many people working their way up in Capital City can’t even afford to live in a basement, and have to sleep under a bridge at night? She’s already lucky to have a 70-square-meter apartment. Why does she crave more?”
Continuing, Sawyer said, “At least she has an apartment. Do you know that Viola has been living in a rural area without running water for 18 years?”
Who has ever shown concern for Viola?
After finding Viola, Sawyer Thompson made a special trip to Show Village.
First, he took a three-hour flight to River City, then transferred to a high-speed train, and finally took a one-hour bus ride to the county town before taking a ferry.
It took him nearly ten hours in all to reach the island where Viola had lived for 18 years.
When he asked the villagers about Viola, everyone praised her as a smart and sensible child.
Guided by the villagers, Sawyer Thompson came to the place where Viola used to live.
Three low, tiled rooms.
There were some flowers and plants planted in front of the door.
There was a well in the yard.
At that time, Sawyer Thompson just stood there, feeling a heaviness in his chest.
He hated himself for not being able to find his daughter earlier.
While his family lived in luxurious mansions.
His biological daughter lived in this kind of environment.
At that time, Sawyer Thompson decided not to let Viola suffer any more in the future.
He wanted to bring her the best things in the world.
Therefore, even though they didn’t like Terrence Lentz and wanted to break off Viola’s engagement, they decided to support Viola when they found out she still loved him!
In the rest of their lives, they just wanted their daughter to be happy.
After hearing all this, Edward was dumbfounded, and then said, “True, my younger sister has suffered hardships, but those sufferings are not caused by Sylvia!”
Sawyer Thompson retorted, “So, you mean Sylvia helping Pag Gar to deceive Brandon was forced by Viola? Shouldn’t she pay for her actions? Edward, you are an adult. Why don’t you think before you speak and act?”
As a father, Sawyer Thompson couldn’t always keep scolding Edward.
He was 26 years old, not a child anymore.
He had his dignity too.
Edward was taken aback again. It did sound like that, but he knew that his father was being biased.
Sylvia’s mistake was not unforgivable.
