Upon hearing that, Linda curiously asked, “Which young girl is so rude? She even dares to slander Old Doctor Bruce!”
Not to ntion River City, but even throughout Sinian Country, there are probably very few people who dare to speak ill of Old Doctor Bruce!
Angus said, “I don’t know whose family she cos from. Anyway, it’s very annoying! If it were my daughter, I would definitely educate her well!”
Even now, Angus was still angry when he thought about what happened earlier.
After all, Old Doctor Bruce was soone he had admired since he was young.
Linda laughed and said, “Young people nowadays are like that, impetuous and unbearable. They feel like they can look down on everything in the world when they achieve a little success, but in fact, they are nothing. Why do you bother with such people?”
“You’re right,” Angus nodded.
Soon, the servant brought the prepared dicine, “Madam, the dicine is ready.”
Upon hearing that, Edith Bennett was very excited and sat up from the bed.
“Give it to .”
Edith Bennett took the bowl of dicine and frowned after taking a sip.
It was too bitter!
But thinking that she would be able to restore her appearance soon, she gritted her teeth and drank it all.
After drinking the dicine, Edith Bennett fell into a deep sleep.
Looking at her sleeping daughter, Linda finally let out a sigh of relief.
Since her daughter’s disfigurent, she hadn’t slept well, even if she did fall asleep, she would wake up from nightmares.
Linda looked up at Angus and whispered, “I owe you a lot for this!”
Old Doctor Bruce hadn’t given a dical consultation for many years, and Angus had spent a great deal to get him here this ti.
“It’s what I’m supposed to do,” Angus said.
Continuing, Linda asked, “Will Old Doctor Bruce co again?”
Although Edith had already taken the dicine, she was still a little worried without seeing Old Doctor Bruce in person.
Angus nodded, “He said he would co for a follow-up visit in three days.”
“Okay.”
On the other side.
The Lentz Clan.
After more than half a month of being busy outside, Harlan Lentz finally returned ho.
He was already 64 years old this year, but he looked much younger than his actual age. People often joked that he and his sons looked like real brothers.
“You finally decided to co back?” Eleanor Armstrong saw Harlan Lentz and didn’t give him a good look.
Seeing his wife’s sulking face, Harlan was confused, “What’s wrong?”
Eleanor frowned, “Do you know that the engagent between Terrence and Miss Thompson is coming up?
“Yeah.” Harlan nodded.
Speaking of this marriage, Harlan was actually a bit puzzled.
Terrence was unreliable, and he was worried that Emma wouldn’t like him.
After all, compared to Emma, Terrence was far behind.
Harlan pinched his temples, “I’ve been preparing for this matter recently, and I know what I’m doing.”
Hearing her husband say this, Eleanor was sowhat satisfied, “What do you plan to give him for his engagent this ti?”
Hearing this, Harlan frowned, “He’s already grown up, you can’t keep spoiling him! A doting mother often spoils her child! You’re half responsible for him becoming the way he is now!”
At this point, Harlan scratched his hair and continued, “The year it happened, I said we should send him to the hospital for treatnt, but you all insisted on stopping it! Now he’s beco like this, all he knows is to ask us for money.
What’s the difference between him and a useless person?”
Over the years, Terrence had accomplished nothing, except for asking for money, he was incapable of anything else.
As a father, Harlan felt extrely sad and disappointed!
“My son is not sick! Why should he go to a ntal hospital?” Eleanor was furious upon hearing this, “Did you ever consider Terrence’s feelings!”
Back then, after Terrence suffered a car accident, he was diagnosed with severe depression.
The doctor suggested sending Terrence to a psychiatric nursing ho for treatnt, but was strongly opposed by Eleanor and Patriarch Lentz.
A ntal hospital? What kind of place was that?
Even if one stayed there for just a few days, they would probably turn from sane to insane!
“The doctor said that depression is also a psychological illness! You just have to argue with to the end!” Harlan said irritably as he took out a cigarette, “If the Thompson Clan breaks off the engagent at the banquet, our family will beco the laughingstock of the entire River City!”
“The Thompson Clan won’t break off the engagent! Miss Thompson is not that kind of person!” Eleanor said very confidently.
Harlan sighed, people’s hearts were unpredictable, and no one knew what would happen in the future.
“Even if Miss Thompson is a good person and won’t break off the engagent, Terrence is already 26 years old, not 16! As an adult, he should learn to be self-reliant. Otherwise, what will he do when he gets married and has children? Don’t always think about giving him money! ”
It was precisely because Patriarch Lentz and Eleanor had been spoiling Terrence, giving him money without restraint, that Terrence had developed a sense of dependence!
“What’s wrong with giving him money! Our family has so much money, let alone supporting one of him, even if there were ten more, it wouldn’t be a problem! Terrence has already gone through so much pain. As a father, you don’t comfort him, but instead add insult to injury!”
By the end of it, Eleanor’s eyes were red.
Harlan took a puff of his cigarette and looked at his wife, his tone softened, “Eleanor, you know I didn’t an that. Do you think I’m not saddened by the way Terrence is now? As a father, I just want what’s best for him! I want him more than anybody to stand up again! A real man shouldn’t be looked down upon!”
As a mother, Eleanor naturally knew that Harlan’s goal was for Terrence’s sake, but at the sa ti, as a mother, she couldn’t bear to see Terrence suffer.
“Do you think I want this? You know how much pain Terrence suffered before!” Eleanor’s eyes were slightly reddened, “Do you think Terrence isn’t sad? He used to be such a proud person, what has he beco now? Who can he talk to about his suffering? As a mother, I don’t want my child to be successful, I just want him to be happy!”
Harlan took a puff of his cigarette, and an indescribable feeling ca to his heart as the events from thirteen years ago reappeared before his eyes.
After a while, Harlan put out his cigarette butt and sighed, “Forget it! You’re right, we earn money just for our children to spend, right? While I still have the energy, I should accumulate more capital for him.”
The next day.
Olga suppressed her anger and brought a designer dress for Viola Thompson,
“Change into this and go to a tea party with and Emma later.”
Speaking of which, Olga added, “Speak less when you’re there, follow Emma around, and do whatever she asks. Don’t embarrass us!”
Rich wives and young ladies from famous families attended the tea party. If Viola Thompson did sothing embarrassing, it might affect Elizabeth Thompson!
Olga stood in front of Viola Thompson, looking down upon her.
She could already imagine the reaction from Viola Thompson.
Viola Thompson would be very excited and grateful to her!
After all, for soone like Viola Thompson who ca from a rural village, she had never attended a tea party or worn a high-quality designer dress before.
Viola Thompson was nestled in a hanging chair on the balcony reading a book, with a look of quiet contentnt.
Hearing Olga’s words, she only lazily raised her eyes, sunlight poured onto her jade-like face, “I’m not available.” It was a very simple two-word reply.
Not available?
Olga slightly frowned and thought she must have heard wrong.
Viola Thompson ant that she wasn’t going to the tea party?
