Chapter 623: 212: Clean up the house, cut off relations

As soon as these words were spoken.

The room fell silent.

The silence in the air was chilling.

Even Sylvia Thompson was stunned.

Her face turned pale white, as if all her strength had been drained in an instant, and her blood flowed backwards.

How could this be!

How did Mandel Thompson find out about this?

What to do now?

Edward Thompson angrily said, “Big brother! What nonsense are you talking about! I know that ever since Viola Thompson returned, you haven’t liked Sylvia and have always found her disagreeable. But even if you don’t like her, you can’t say that about her!”

Edward Thompson could not have imagined that Mandel Thompson would go so far as to do this for Viola Thompson.

He even went so far as to slander Sylvia!

“Regardless of what you say, Sylvia is still the little sister you watched grow up. She’s called you her big brother for eighteen years! She’s never blamed you for anything you’ve done to her!”

Mandel Thompson couldn’t be bothered to pay attention to Edward Thompson.

He turned his head to look at his mother beside him. freewёbn૦νeɭ.com

Mary Perryne almost couldn’t stand up, but she managed to hold onto Sawyer Thompson at the last moment, then looked up at Mandel Thompson, “Man…Mandel, are…are you joking with us?”

Who would have believed that for so many years, they had unknowingly raised two wolves by their side!

For a moment.

Mary Perryne found it hard to digest so much information.

Sawyer Thompson supported Mary Perryne. “Mandel! Tell us what happened!”

Mandel Thompson looked at his parents and said word by word: “Sylvia Thompson’s real name is Sophie Cooper, and she is the daughter of Nidya and her husband, James.”

“But,” Mary Perryne’s face turned ghostly pale and her voice wavered, “didn’t Aunt Zhang’s child…isn’t she long dead?”

Everybody in the Thompson Clan knew that Aunt Zhang had a very difficult life.

Not only she had an abusive husband, but her only biological daughter had died as well.

As a result, Mary Perryne had great sympathy for her and paid her higher wages than others.

“In fact, Nidya’s child never died,” Mandel Thompson continued. “Back then, Nidya took away the real Young Miss Thompson Family with the idea of having Sylvia replace her. In order not to let us find the real girl, Nidya even cruelly gouged out the birthmark on her arm. She intended to make her bleed to death, but the girl was blessed with immense luck, and survived even being thrown into the trash after having her birthmark gouged out.”

As he spoke these words, Mandel Thompson’s eyes turned red and his voice became hoarse.

He couldn’t imagine how that tiny infant managed to survive.

That little child, still wrapped in swaddling clothes back then, must have suffered terribly.

Continuing his story, Mandel Thompson said: “Mom, do you remember how you picked up Sophie Cooper back then?”

Upon hearing this, Mary Perryne’s thoughts fell into her memories.

Back then.

After Viola Thompson went missing, Mary Perryne and Sawyer Thompson embarked on their journey to find their daughter.

They searched for a long time but found no trace of Viola Thompson.

That morning.

Mary Perryne woke up early.

She thought that if she couldn’t find her daughter, she might as well jump into the river and die.

Standing on the bridge.

Mary Perryne kept envisioning the lovely appearance of her daughter, and just as she opened her arms to jump, a crying sound suddenly reached her ears.

“Waahhh–”

The unmistakable sound of a baby’s cry.

In an instant, Mary Perryne sobered up.

Following the sound, she came to the bushes at the edge of the bridge.

Moving aside the dense greenery, Mary Perryne saw an adorable child.

Strangely enough, the child stopped crying and smiled at her when they made eye contact..

In that moment, Mary Perryne burst into tears.

It was as if she saw her own daughter in the face of that little baby.

So, Mary Perryne picked up the child from the bushes, brought her home, and gave her a name.

Sylvia Thompson.

From then on, the Thompson family no longer had Viola Thompson, but instead had Sylvia Thompson.

The couple raised Sylvia with great care.

Looking back, Mary Perryne found it strange – why was it that the child cried right when she was about to jump into the river?

In the past, she thought it was fate that brought her and Sylvia together, and that Sylvia had saved her life.

That’s why she treated Sylvia very well – whatever Sylvia asked for, she would try her best to provide.

In Mary Perryne’s eyes, although Sylvia wasn’t her biological daughter, they had a strong mother-daughter bond, even stronger than with some biological mothers and daughters.

However, in light of recent events.

Everything seemed to have been planned by someone else.

And then there was Aunt Zhang.

Aunt Zhang began working for the Thompson family when Sylvia was three years old.

And for fifteen years, she stayed with them.

Afterward, Mary Perryne recalled the scene years ago when Aunt Zhang secretly kissed Sylvia.
