Substitute Marriage: Reborn As The Top Big-Shot

Seeing Mrs. Thompson like this, Elena Williams said, “Mom, is there something you want to say?”

“If there is something you want to say, just blink your eyes.”

Mrs. Thompson immediately blinked.

Elena became very excited and continued, “Are you thirsty then?”

Mrs. Thompson tried hard to keep her eyes open.

“Or are you hungry?”

“Do you need to pee?” “Or maybe you need to poop?”

Mrs. Thompson: .

Other than eating, it was all about pooping!

Her second daughter-in-law is really something.

“Mom, what do you want to do then?”

Mrs. Thompson was so anxious that she wanted to say everything at once, but she couldn’t utter a single word.

What to do?

At this moment, Mrs. Thompson suddenly found that she seemed to be able to move her left hand a bit. Could she write down what she wanted to say? When her gaze met Sylvia Thompson’s, Mrs. Thompson gave up on this idea.

She couldn’t let Sylvia know about this matter.

Among these people, only Mary Perryne, Mandel Thompson, Samuel Thompson, Edward Thompson, and Sylvia Thompson knew about Viola Thompson’s existence.

Obviously, Mary could not bear this responsibility.

Edward was even less likely.

So that left only Mandel and Samuel.

Samuel, being naive, would not be the most reliable person to handle this matter.

After much thought, Mandel was the most suitable.

As the eldest son and grandson, Mandel was mature and steady, quite like Sawyer Thompson in his prime.

Thus, Mrs. Thompson’s gaze immediately locked onto Mandel’s face.

Staring intently at him.

As a businessman, Mandel was keenly aware and immediately noticed Mrs.

Thompson’s gaze. “Grandma, do you have something to say to me?”

Mrs. Thompson blinked her eyes, then turned her head to look at the others in the room.

Mandel instantly understood Mrs. Thompson’s meaning and said, “Auntie Elena, why don’t you take everyone out first?”

Her eldest grandson was smart!

He guessed her thoughts right away.

Mrs. Thompson wished she could stand up and applaud.

Seeing this, Sylvia furrowed her brows subtly. What was the old lady up to?

What unspeakable secrets did she want to share?

Elena, on the other hand, didn’t think too much about it. She immediately stood up and said, “We’ll leave for a moment then.”

The others quickly followed her lead.

After everyone left, Mandel went over, locked the door, and then approached the bedside. “Grandma, what do you want to tell me?” Mrs. Thompson gripped Mandel’s hand with her right hand.

“Can you move your hand?” Mandel was pleasantly surprised.

As soon as he finished speaking, Mandel said, “I’ll get you a pen.”

However, when the pen was brought over, Mrs. Thompson’s fingers trembled constantly, unable to hold the pen.

Mandel furrowed his eyebrows slightly and stretched out his hand. “Grandma, write the words you want to say onto my palm.”

Mrs. Thompson used all her strength to write on Mandel’s palm.

Stroke by stroke.

It took a long time before Mrs. Thompson finally stopped.

“Is it the ‘fate’ in ‘destiny?”

Mrs. Thompson shook her head.

“The ‘far’ in ‘distance?”

Mrs. Thompson continued to shake her head.

“The ‘green’ in ‘green color’?”

Mrs. Thompson continued to shake her head.

After unsuccessfully guessing several characters, Mandel said, “Grandma, write it again.”

This time, Mrs. Thompson wrote even more carefully.

Mandel looked at it and then asked, “Is it ‘Viola?”

Hearing the answer she was hoping for, Mrs. Thompson excitedly shed tears.

It was truly not easy!

But what did Mrs. Thompson mean by writing the word ‘Viola’?

What did she want to express?

Mrs. Thompson grabbed Mandel’s hand again and rewrote another character. Upon mastering the technique, Mandel instantly guessed the word. “Is it ‘find’?”

Mrs. Thompson became even more excited!

Mandel was indeed her eldest grandson.

One “find.’

One “Viola.’

Together they meant…

Mandel narrowed his eyes, and a figure suddenly surfaced in his mind. “Are you asking me to find Viola Thompson?” Mrs. Thompson excitedly blinked her eyes.

It seemed like he guessed right.

But why was Mrs. Thompson asking him to find Viola?

Considering that Mrs.. Thompson had been to River City, Mandel asked, “Are you suspecting that Viola is my sister?”
