Substitute Marriage: Reborn As The Top Big-Shot-Chapter 1971 - 559: Meet the Parents_5

"Hmm." Eva Webster nodded.

It wasn’t long before Eva Webster walked out of the examination room.

Liam Webster immediately went to the doctor’s side and then asked, "Is my sister okay?"

The doctor pulled down his mask and continued, "Your sister has suffered significant physical and psychological trauma. She needs good rest for the next month, and your family should spend more time with her if possible."

"Additionally, one of her ribs is broken and she needs to be hospitalized for surgery."

Hearing that Eva Webster’s rib was broken, Windy Armstrong became very anxious and immediately rushed over, "Doctor, will my daughter be okay?"

"Don’t worry, she will be fine." The doctor continued, "Your family should quickly handle the hospitalization and surgery arrangements. It’s a high season for infectious diseases, so only one family member can stay with her in the hospital."

"Then I’ll stay," Windy Armstrong looked at Liam Webster, "Little Liam, you go pay the fees and then take Emmy Gray to send Auntie Olivia home. I’ll stay with Eva during her hospitalization."

Liam Webster nodded.

After arranging the hospitalization and surgery, Liam Webster went with Emmy Gray to take Olivia Armstrong back home.

"Auntie, you’ve really worked hard these past few days."

He and Emmy Gray were busy with work, and it was Olivia Armstrong who had been accompanying Windy Armstrong during this time.

Olivia Armstrong smiled and said, "What’s hard or not hard about that? Your mom and I are sisters, and it’s only right for sisters to help each other out."

Liam Webster continued, "We really need to thank Mr. Thompson, Isla’s friend. After Eva recovers, we’ll definitely visit him to express our gratitude personally."

Olivia Armstrong nodded, "Okay."

Since this matter was helped by Mandel Thompson, she couldn’t simply replace Mandel Thompson in saying there’s no need for thanks.

Emmy Gray turned to look at Olivia Armstrong and asked with a smile, "Auntie, is Mr. Thompson possibly dating Isla?"

There are no random acts of kindness among adults.

Especially when such a great favor is involved.

Olivia Armstrong was stunned, "That I really don’t know. But the Thompson family is too prominent, and we, the people of such ordinary state, perhaps cannot aspire to such heights."

She and William Astir were very ordinary farmers, hardly literate at all, and but for their daughter, they would still be trapped in a mountain hollow!

So, she never entertained hopes of her daughter marrying into a wealthy family to change their fate.

For Olivia Armstrong.

Their generation’s fate had already been changed by Isla Astir.

Emmy Gray then said, "Auntie, nowadays such traditional matchmaking considerations aren’t regarded anymore. Besides, Isla is outstanding herself, don’t belittle yourself."

Olivia Armstrong smiled and then asked, "By the way, Liam and Emmy, when are you two planning on having the wedding?"

"Next Lunar New Year." Liam Webster replied.

Olivia Armstrong then said, "Then I must make sure to prepare the red envelope."

By the time Olivia Armstrong got home, it was already 4 AM.

Isla Astir hadn’t slept yet; she had just finished sketching and walked out from the bedroom, saying to Olivia Armstrong, "Mom, has Cousin returned yet?"

Olivia Armstrong nodded, "Yes, she’s back. Your Aunt said to really thank you and Thompson."

Isla Astir scratched her head, "Tell Aunt not to be formal; Mom, go wash up and sleep early. I’m going to sleep too."

Olivia Armstrong wanted to ask Isla Astir about the situation with Mandel Thompson, but after thinking, decided not to ask.

It was better not to intervene in the children’s matters.

Let them develop freely.

Thompson Clan.

Early in the morning, Samuel Thompson mysteriously told the family that he had a big announcement to make.

Mandel Thompson didn’t pay him any mind.

With Samuel Thompson’s unpredictable character, what big news could he possibly announce?

Bob Thompson curiously said, "Second brother, are you holding another art exhibition?"

Technically speaking, it wouldn’t be the first time Samuel Thompson was hosting an art exhibition, so it shouldn’t count as big news.

But other than an art exhibition, Bob Thompson couldn’t think of any other significant news.

Samuel Thompson shook his head.

Mary Perryne looked at Samuel Thompson and asked, "Did you win another award?"

Samuel Thompson glanced at the coffee table that his mom used to place fruits in the trophy, "Mom, are we running out of fruit bowls?"

"If it’s not an award, then what’s the big news?" Mary Perryne was curious.

Samuel Thompson looked at Sawyer Thompson, "Dad, want to guess?"

Sawyer Thompson, like Mandel Thompson, didn’t bother to engage with his unpredictable second son.

In his view, all artists are unpredictable.

Viola Thompson was feeding bread a turkey leg, then looked at Samuel Thompson, "Second brother, you’re not going to bring back a sister-in-law for us to meet, are you?"

"Little sister! You’re really intuitive!" Samuel Thompson looked at Viola Thompson excitedly and said, "Congratulations, you guessed right!"

Guessed right!

The following.

The air immediately froze.

Even Viola Thompson was somewhat slow to react, then said, "Second brother, are you serious?"

"Of course!" Samuel Thompson said proudly, "I’ll bring her over tomorrow for all of you to see!"

Mary Perryne stood up excitedly, "Second son, you’re not joking with us, are you?"

She had been longing for this day for a long time!

Having a daughter-in-law meant, it won’t be long before she could hold her grandchildren.

Samuel Thompson smiled, "Of course I’m not joking, you’ll see when she arrives tomorrow! Mom and Dad, remember to prepare well!"

Mary Perryne thought Mandel Thompson had been acting a bit oddly lately; initially, she thought he would be the first to bring a girlfriend home, but she never expected it would be Samuel Thompson!

"Samuel, who’s the girl? Does Mom know her?"

Samuel Thompson nodded, "Yes, you know her!"

Mary Perryne widened her eyes with anticipation and asked eagerly, "Who is it? Who?"

Samuel Thompson showed a mysterious smile, "I can’t tell you who it is yet."

Saying this, he looked at Viola Thompson and continued, "But she’s someone very familiar to my little sister."

"Me?" Viola Thompson pointed at herself.

"Yes, very familiar indeed," Samuel Thompson continued.

Viola Thompson was very surprised.

Who could it be, someone familiar to her?

Could it be Bella Windham?

"Bella Windham?" Viola Thompson asked.

"No no no," Samuel Thompson immediately shook his head to deny, "I can’t manage someone like that."

Of course, he also didn’t want an early grave.

Bella Windham would casually poison someone, who could stand that?
