Hearing this, Charlotte Young was stunned, and so was Sophie.
The two won looked at each other and saw astonishnt in each other's eyes.
What did they see?
Viola Thompson?
It really was Viola Thompson!
Could it be a hallucination?
No one expected Viola Thompson would co to River City in person.
What on earth was happening?
It's uncomfortable to talk about soone behind their back and get caught in the act.
Especially when it's Viola Thompson.
The two sisters-in-law turned pale and flushed alternately.
Sophie was the first to snap out of it, she raised a smile and turned her head to look at Viola, "Miss Thompson, please co inside. Sophie and I were just joking around, please don't take our words to heart."
Charlotte also regained her senses at this mont and imdiately echoed, "Sophie is right, we were just chatting. Just chatting!"
Viola's expression was unreadable, she held onto Terrence Lentz's wrist tightly and just looked at the two won, speaking slowly and clearly, "My brother Terrence is my fiance, I love him very much. At the sa ti, our relationship has been approved by our parents. We will legally get married in the future, anyone who offends him will offend , anyone who talks about him behind his back is talking about too."
At this point, Viola paused, "Life is full of ups and downs, it's impossible to sail smoothly all the ti. Just like the phrase 'Thirty years east of the river, thirty years west of the river.' I hope you two sisters-in-law can put away your cleverness, otherwise, don't bla for turning against you."
Viola's words were not heavy nor light, but they turned Charlotte Young and Sophie as pale as ghosts.
No one expected that Terrence Lentz would have such a profound place in Viola's heart!
That good-for-nothing, what on earth does he have?
And Viola's protective deanor also fell into the eyes of Eleanor Armstrong and Harlan Lentz on the second floor.
They looked at each other and smiled, both saw satisfaction in each other's eyes.
It was really because of the Lentz Clan's good karma that Terrence Lentz t such a good girl.
Of course, it wasn't just Charlotte Young and Sophie who were shocked, but also Mr. Lentz standing beside Miss Thompson.
He looked calm, but he was internally turbulent.
Just then, the couple Harlan Lentz and Eleanor Armstrong ca down from the upstairs.
Eleanor Armstrong walked up to Viola Thompson with a smile on her face, affectionately took her hand, looked her up and down, left and right, and then said with regret, "Viola, have you been very busy lately? You seem to have lost weight!"
Before Viola could speak, Eleanor turned to a servant, "Nanny Doreen, rember to make a nourishing soup for Viola tonight."
"Yes." Nanny Doreen respectfully nodded.
Viola laughed, "Aunt, it's not that exaggerated. I'm still the sa, I haven't lost any weight."
"You definitely have!" Eleanor continued: "If you don't believe , you can weigh yourself."
There was a scale in the living room.
Viola, in order to prove she had indeed not lost weight, followed Eleanor to the scale.
Harlan Lentz looked at Terrence, "What are you standing around for! Go to the kitchen and see if the milk tea is ready?"
"Okay." Terrence Lentz turned around.
"I'll go with you," Harlan Lentz followed Terrence's step, "your mother ordered so tropical fruits that Viola likes from an old friend last night. I am going to check if they have arrived."
Both n were busy heading to the kitchen.
In the blink of an eye, only Charlotte Young and Sophie were left in the living room.
The two were extrely awkward, uncertain whether to sit or stand.
After a mont, Charlotte Young was the first to speak in a low voice, "Sophie, shall we go back to our room first?"
"Mm." Sophie nodded.
The two tiptoed upstairs.
Reaching the third floor, they both heaved a sigh of relief.
Sophie looked at Charlotte Young, her face still a little pale, "Sister-in-law, we didn't completely offend Miss Thompson this ti, did we?"
"Don't worry, no." Charlotte Young replied, "Miss Thompson is young, which is why she was deceived by that good-for-nothing."
Charlotte paused, her eyebrows constricting slightly, "The most crucial thing now is how we dissociate ourselves from this good-for-nothing. Otherwise, he would drag us down sooner or later."
Hearing this, Sophie sighed.
If things continued to develop in this way, the Thompson Clan would sooner or later settle accounts with Terrence Lentz, and they would inevitably be implicated.
"So what should we do now?" Sophie asked.
Charlotte Young narrowed her eyes, appearing as though she was about to say sothing, but instead she said after thinking of what Bartley Lentz said to her, "Don't worry, let's go back and think of a solution."
