Capítulo 2053: 573: The big shots are all here! _3
When Jean Beckman was ntioned, the expression in Mrs. Sumr’s eyes grew dimr.
Because of that daughter.
She almost caused a double fatality.
For a mont, Mrs. Sumr sighed softly, “If it weren’t for her, how could I have had a premature delivery?”
Mary Perryne was stunned, “So, those rumors outside, they’re all true?”
Mrs. Sumr’s face was full of a resigned smile, “No smoke without fire.”
If they weren’t true, why would there be so many rumors?
At this point, Mrs. Sumr paused for a mont and continued, “To tell you the truth and not fear being laughed at, Beckman is completely hopeless now. I’ve had her father send her back to our hotown. Let her calm down a bit in the old house. Her father and I don’t want to see her for the ti being.”
Mrs. Sumr had thought about calling the police.
But upon further thought, no matter what, Jean Beckman was still her biological daughter.
She felt a pang of reluctance.
Mary Perryne sighed and patted Mrs. Sumr’s hand, “It’s all in the past now, don’t dwell on it. You have the little baby to focus on. By the way, what’s the little baby’s na?”
As for the na, Mrs. Sumr had ntioned it to Mary Perryne before, but it had been a long ti, and Mary already forgot.
Mrs. Sumr continued, “His na is Zack Sumr.”
At this point, she added, “Originally, his na was supposed to be Zack Zehn, but the elders in our family said the na ‘Zehn’ sounded too much like a girl’s na, so we changed the ‘Zehn’ to the ‘Zack’ for ambition. We hope this child will grow up to have a strong aspirational spirit.”
There’s an old saying: Poverty doesn’t last beyond three generations, and wealth doesn’t either.
Family background isn’t important; what matters most is the child’s own determination.
Mary Perryne smiled and said, “Zack seems like a child destined for greatness. You and your husband should prepare to enjoy his blessings in the future!”
Upon hearing this, Mrs. Sumr smiled happily.
As a mother, who doesn’t wish for their children to have a bright future?
After chatting for a while, it seed like sothing crossed Mrs. Sumr’s mind, so she continued, “Oh, Mary, I heard that your daughter Viola is getting ready for a wedding soon. Is that true?”
Regarding this matter, Mrs. Sumr had only heard rumors, since the Thompson Clan hadn’t officially comnted, leaving her unsure.
Mary Perryne nodded slightly, “Yes, it’s true. The wedding is set for this month’s 16th.”
Mrs. Sumr was very surprised, “The 16th?”
And it’s this month!
“Yes.”
Mrs. Sumr quickly added, “By this calculation, there are only a few days left!”
Mary Perryne’s smile remained unchanged, “Yes, counting carefully, there are only five or six days left.”
Thinking about how, in just six days, Terrence Lentz would co to take away her precious baby, Mary Perryne felt a heavy sadness in her heart.
Mrs. Sumr held Mary’s hand, “Mary, if I were you, there’s no way I’d be willing to let such a wonderful daughter get married!”
Especially to a man with such a bad reputation.
What could Mary possibly be thinking?
If Mrs. Sumr were in her shoes, she would never agree to such a marriage.
Although Mary was also reluctant deep down, she showed no negative emotions on her face. Smiling, she said, “Children grow up and ultimately need to get married and have families. I can’t keep her tied to my side for her whole life. As a mother, I only wish Viola happiness in the future.”
Mrs. Sumr sighed inwardly.
Mary hopes Viola will find happiness.
But marrying a good-for-nothing with a mismatched background—can happiness truly be found?
Though that’s what Mrs. Sumr thought deep in her heart, she didn’t say more.
After all, it’s soone else’s family matter.
ddling too much wouldn’t be appropriate.
Besides, Mary isn’t a fool, and Viola is her own flesh and blood—she should know better.
The mother-daughter pair stayed at the hospital until the afternoon before preparing to leave.
Viola turned to Mary and suggested, “Mom, since it’s already late, why don’t we go to the Food Street for a stroll? Maybe grab a bite to eat?”
“Alright.” Mary nodded.
In the past, Mary had never liked eating the random food from outside, but under Viola’s influence, she not only stopped finding it unpleasant but even grew to enjoy the flavors.
Walking hand-in-hand through the Food Street, the mother and daughter looked just like two blooming sisters.
In the days that followed, apart from preparing for her wedding, Viola spent most of her ti accompanying Mary on various outings.
As for the wedding arrangents at ho, Sawyer Thompson, the loving father, handled everything. He hired a renowned wedding planning team and personally supervised every detail.
Ti moved swiftly.
In the blink of an eye, it was January 13th.
Just three days before the wedding.
Interestingly, although the Capital City had seen a stretch of continuous rain over the past few days, starting from the 13th, the skies cleared, revealing endless sunshine.
