No one knows how Eleanor Armstrong could say such things.
What could Terrence Lentz, the good-for-nothing, possibly possess that others don't?
Is it possible that there are people out there even more useless than he is?
Eleanor Armstrong must have quite the regard for Terrence Lentz!
"Yes yes, you're right, mom. After all, the third son was once known far and wide as a prodigy in River City, no matter how bad he is, he can't really be that bad, right? The Thompson Family sees sothing in the third son, it shows they have great judgnt!" Charlotte Young said sarcastically.
She purposefully twisted Eleanor's words to disgust her.
Sophie also nodded in agreent on the side.
Eleanor frowned slightly, "Charlotte, Sophie, what is your aning?"
"What do you an? I'm not up to anything!" Charlotte Young feigned innocence, "Mom, did I say sothing wrong? Look at , I always say the wrong things, I made you angry again! You're so wise and understanding, please don't get mad at !"
Sophie quickly added: "Mom, I really didn't say anything!"
Eleanor straightened up and firmly said, "Charlotte, Sophie, rember my words. One day, the third son will be soone you all could only dream of reaching!"
It wasn't the first ti Eleanor Armstrong said this.
But each ti she did, both Sophie and Charlotte Young would scoff.
.Afterall,
What can a good-for-nothing do that would make them feel they are not on his level.
Normally, Charlotte wouldn't say much more. However, she had noticed that no matter how well she did, her mother-in-law was always biased towards the good-for-nothing Terrence.
So, Charlotte looked up at Eleanor and said with a smile, "Mom, I am the third son's sister-in-law, I also hope that he can do great things soday. But so things are not as simple as just hoping! A man should be established by thirty. Have you ever thought about how old the third son is this year? He is almost thirty years old!"
What does the nearly thirty-year-old Terrence Lentz have?
Aside from living off his parents, he has nothing!
Upon saying this, Charlotte Young paused, then continued, "Mom, let be clear. If the third son becos successful in the future, I, as his sister-in-law, won't rely on him! And if he remains like he is now, don't bla for ignoring him. I won't spoil him like you and dad do, or let him have his way. I, as his sister-in-law, don't have the obligation to carter for him too!"
They spoiled Terrence Lentz to the extent that he ended up how he is today.
Having said that, Charlotte turned and walked away.
Sophie also followed and left.
Eleanor Armstrong was so angry that it pained her, she turned to look at Charlotte's retreating figure and shouted, "You'd better rember your words today. Don't think of using Terrence in the future!"
After saying these words, Eleanor Armstrong turned and walked back to her room.
Even after returning to her room, she was still furious. Seeing Harlan Lentz in the room, she couldn't help but vent.
Harlan Lentz was not angry but instead chuckled, "Why are you saying all this to the children?"
"Can't you see I'm too upset?" She retorted. "Regardless, Terrence Lentz is their uncle. As his nieces, even if they don't support him, they shouldn't join others in mocking him!"
Harlan Lentz replied, "Don't get upset, it's been many years, you should be used to it by now!"
Over the years, hasn't Terrence Lentz always been the topic of people's gossip?
Harlan Lentz had long grown numb.
His focus now was to accumulate a fortune for Terrence Lentz in his remaining years, to make sure Terrence has a worry-free life in the future.
As for everything else...
He would turn a deaf ear to it.
One can only watch their own mouths, not other people's.
Of course Eleanor Armstrong understood this, she sighed, "It's different when outsiders say things! But they are Terrence's nieces!"
Harlan Lentz flipped a page on his newspaper, "I'd say, you really can't bla Charlotte and Sophie. If you have to bla soone, it should be Bartley Lentz and Len Lentz. They, being Terrence's own brothers, don't even protect him, let alone expecting these outsiders to do so!"
Why does Charlotte Young and Sophie dare to openly look down on Terrence Lentz, or even make fun of him?
It's only because Terrence's own brothers, Bartley Lentz and Len Lentz, don't respect their own brother from the bottom of their hearts!
If Bartley Lentz and Len Lentz showed Terrence Lentz a little respect, naturally, Charlotte and Sophie would not dare disrespect Terrence Lentz.
