Substitute Marriage: Reborn As The Top Big-Shot

Chapter 522: 193: Uncontrollable Fondness! _2
As Sylvia Thompson said, considering how much their parents doted on Viola Thompson, all it would take were a few words from Viola, and they would definitely let him go back.

“Little brother, what’s with that expression? Don’t you believe your sister would plead on your behalf?” Sylvia smiled and said, “The two of you are blood-related siblings, there could be no barriers between you! Moreover, my sister is a reasonable person, she’s not as bad as you imagine.”

Although it seemed like she was defending Viola, in reality, every word she said was aimed against Viola.

What a pity.

Edward Thompson did not catch the hidden meaning and thought Sylvia was merely defending Viola.

“If she were really as good as you claim, I wouldn’t be standing here now!” Edward added, “Sylvia, it’s you who think too highly of certain people!”

“Mom and Dad were truly angry this time, maybe my sister tried to persuade them, but they didn’t listen!”

Seeing how naive Sylvia was, Edward was truly speechless.

“Silly girl!”

He reached out and patted Sylvia on the head.

At times like this, only Sylvia would come out to comfort him from the Thompson Clan.

His sister was worth his affection.

Sylvia continued, “By the way, little brother, you haven’t eaten dinner yet, have you? I haven’t eaten either, let’s go eat something.”

“Hmm.” Edward nodded.

After getting into the car, Edward put on his mask.

They arrived at a private kitchen restaurant.

Edward was a VIP here, and the boss immediately arranged a private room for him.

The boss personally greeted them, smiling and saying, “Emperor Thompson, Miss Thompson, this way upstairs, please.”

Edward led Sylvia following the boss’s steps.

They arrived at the private room.

The boss then asked, “Emperor Thompson, as usual?”

“Hmm.” Edward nodded.

Soon, the dishes were served.

They chatted as they ate.

Sylvia said, “Little brother, actually, you’re quite at fault this time too, you can’t blame Mom and Dad entirely.”

Upon saying this, she sighed and continued, “Why don’t you just make up with them and apologize? I know that it’s hard for you to humble yourself in front of your parents, but what’s so humiliating about bowing down to your own Mom and Dad?”

“As long as you apologize, they’ll definitely forgive you and let you return.”

Apologize?

Hearing this, Edward’s eyes were full of irony.

Hadn’t he apologized?

Now their parents’ hearts were filled with Viola, where was there any room left for him as their son?

“Little brother,” seeing Edward not speaking, Sylvia asked again.

Edward sighed, “I’m not the kind of person who is stubborn. As soon as I realized I was wrong, I came to apologize to Mom and Dad.”

He thought his parents would forgive him.

But what happened?

The result was nothing but disappointment!

Hearing this, Sylvia’s face was filled with surprise, “How…how could this be?”

“Don’t you understand? It’s all because of Viola.”

“It’s not my sister, it can’t be my sister, little brother, don’t take things to the extreme.” Sylvia weakly defended Viola.

Hearing this, Edward sneered, “Sylvia, do you believe your own words when you say this?”

Sylvia lowered her head, sighed softly.

“You don’t believe it either, do you?”

Sylvia didn’t speak.

She tacitly accepted Edward’s words.

Edward sighed and continued, “Sometimes, I can’t help but think how great it would be if she hadn’t been found. I admit, I’m a very selfish person, but before she was found, our family was so peaceful. It’s only after she came back that all these things have happened one after another!”

First, she forced Sylvia to jump into the river, nearly costing her life.

Now, she had driven him out of the Thompson Clan.

Edward’s heart was filled with deep resentment towards Viola.

If it weren’t for Viola, the Thompsons wouldn’t be in this state.

Sylvia sighed again, “Little brother, don’t ever say that again; if Mom and Dad and big brother hear you, they’ll never let it go.”

“Heh heh…”

Edward smirked coldly.

So now everyone in the Thompson family had to live their lives tiptoeing around Viola?

No one could say anything bad about Viola!

Seeing Edward like this, Sylvia narrowed her eyes imperceptibly.

Halfway through the meal, Edward put down his chopsticks, “I need to step outside for some air.”

Feeling more and more suffocated, there was no way he could eat any more at this point.

“Hmm.” Sylvia nodded.

Edward went outside.
