In other words, even if something happened to Mrs. Thompson, she wouldn’t have any regrets.

At least she met her granddaughter before closing her eyes.

Penny Kalafatis smiled and said, “By the way, sister-in-law, do you think we should prepare a meeting gift for Viola?”

“Of course! Viola is the darling of our Thompson Clan!” Elena Williams replied, “Unfortunately, I didn’t prepare anything for my trip to River City. I own a clothing store, right? I plan to give that store to her.”

The clothing store Elena was talking about was not some small workshop.

It was her original brand, with ten chain stores already, and had gained some fame in Capital City.

Penny Kalafatis laughed and said, “Sister-in-law, since you are so generous, I can’t lag behind! I plan to transfer the ownership of ‘One by One’ to Viola.” ‘One by One’ was a hot pot restaurant owned by Penny Kalafatis.

She started as a waitress and had been working in the catering industry for years.

It wouldn’t be an exaggeration to call her the leading figure in catering.

‘One by One’ was a brand that was just as impressive as Elena’s clothing store.

Listening to the discussion between her two aunts, Sylvia Thompson couldn’t help but clench her silver teeth in anger.

Over the years, she hadn’t received any favors from Elena or Penny.

As soon as Viola returned, they were already considering giving her gifts!

Was that fair to her?

However, could that little country girl, Viola, handle the things they gave her? Both the clothing store and the hot pot restaurant needed people to run them.

Could Viola do it?

Viola probably couldn’t even understand a financial statement.

Just wait and see.

Sooner or later, they would realize the difference between a phoenix and a lowly chicken.

With these thoughts in mind, Sylvia narrowed her eyes.

Mrs. Thompson, lying in the hospital bed, noticed Sylvia’s expression.

She knew that Sylvia was not a good person.

Out of sight, out of mind.

Mrs. Thompson closed her eyes.

At this moment, Sylvia went to Elena and Penny and said, “Second Aunt, Little Aunt, it’s noon now. I’ll go back and get food for grandma and you. You just wait here for me.’

“Alright. Be careful on the road.” Elena said.

“I know, Second Aunt.’

Watching Sylvia’s retreating figure, Elena sighed, “Sylvia is such a filial child. She insists on going back personally for such a trivial matter as bringing food.’

If it were someone else, they wouldn’t bother making the trip themselves and would just have a maid deliver it.

Penny Kalafatis said, “Maybe she’s just too idle.”

She didn’t really think Sylvia was that filial.

Elena was taken aback, wanting to refute but felt Penny had a point.

After hearing the words of her daughter-in-law, Mrs. Thompson wished she could jump up and clap for her.

She was absolutely right!

Sylvia returned to the Thompson Family home.

The servants were busy cleaning and decorating with lanterns and banners.

Usually, only during the New Year would the Thompson Family be so high-profile.

Now, it was to welcome Viola’s return.

This scene was just too glaring.

Sylvia was furious, but she still maintained a smiling face, laughing and saying to the housekeeper, “Sir Cooper, my sister will be back soon. Thank you all for your hard work today.”

“Young Miss Thompson Family, this is what we should do.”

Young Miss?

Sylvia immediately felt a chill in her heart.

Just because Viola was coming back, had she been directly demoted from young miss to the second young miss?

Did these servants want to remind her that only Viola was the rightful young miss of the Thompson Family?

What a joke!

Sylvia kept a smile on her face, “Well, Sir Cooper, you go ahead and do your work, I’ll go check the kitchen.”

“Alright, Second Young Miss Thompson.”

On her way to the kitchen, Sylvia discovered that everyone had changed their address from ‘Young Miss’ to ‘Second Young Miss.’ Sylvia suppressed her anger and returned to her room.

Aunt Zhang came to comfort her first.

But she didn’t know how to start.

She just stood by Sylvia’s side like that.

She regretted it very much now.

She regretted that she had left such a big problem for her daughter in the first place.

She didn’t speak.

Sylvia didn’t speak either.

The two remained stiff like that.

The atmosphere in the air was a little awkward.

After a long time, Sylvia finally said, “Are you satisfied now?”

A very calm tone.

“I’m sorry…” Aunt Zhang lowered her head.

“Sorry?” Sylvia laughed, “What use is an apology?”

At this point, Sylvia pointed at Aunt Zhang with her finger and questioned her, word by word, “Can the three words ‘sorry’ make up for the harm you’ve done to me? If you didn’t want to take responsibility for me, why did you give birth to me in the first place!”
