Substitute Marriage: Reborn As The Top Big-Shot - Chapter 505

Chapter 505: 177: Evil begets evil_7
Viola Thompson gave a slight nod, “Alright, Uncle Wu, you all go ahead first. We will take a cab home later.”

“Miss Thompson, we’ll wait for you.”

They had been ordered by their master to ensure Viola was safely home.

Without their master’s approval, they dared not leave!

“Well then, thank you for your hard work.”

With these words, Viola led Rachel Barton and the others into the apartment building.

The apartment had been rented on Terrence Lentz’s arrangement.

Three rooms and a living room.

On the tenth floor.

Upon reaching the door, Viola knocked.

Delia Frieman arrived in Capital City the previous night and was currently inside.

Without delay.

The door was opened.

Delia Frieman was the one to open it.

Dolores Frieman, looking at the sister she found both strange and familiar, initially froze before rushing over to hug her little sister, whom she had not seen much since leaving home, “Delia!”

“Sis!”

The two sisters held each other tightly.

After a moment, Dolores Frieman introduced Rachel Barton and Viola Thompson and Diana Hershey and Fiona Knight to Delia Frieman.

Upon hearing this, Delia looked at Viola, a flash of amazement passing across her eyes.

She had seen many beautiful women, including herself who was extraordinarily attractive.

However, she had never met anyone more beautiful than Viola.

Although she had never seen Viola in person, Delia clearly understood that, without this girl, she would not be who she is today.

Delia Frieman bowed to Viola.

“Miss Thompson, thank you.”

Next, Delia turned her gaze towards Rachel, her eyes brimming with tears and said, “Rachel, I didn’t expect that we three sisters would reunite this way.”

Pausing, she then hugged Rachel and said, “But it doesn’t matter, our hard days are over. From now on, it’ll be smooth sailing.”

Dolores Frieman, standing aside, covered her face crying.

The three newly reunited sisters still had a lot to talk about.

Without wanting to impose, Viola took her leave, giving them some time alone.

Diana Hershey and Fiona Knight left as well.

After leaving the tenth-floor apartment.

Diana Hershey and Fiona Knight both sighed over Rachel Barton’s ordeal.

Fiona Knight regretted deeply, “If only I hadn’t kept the fact that Rachel lent me money a secret from you, Viola.”

If she had not kept this from Viola and told her instead, perhaps Rachel would not have had to go through such suffering.

Viola turned to look at Fiona Knight, “Fiona, this is not your fault. Don’t burden yourself with guilt. After all, you did promise Rachel that you would keep it a secret.”

In the end, Rachel herself was to blame for this.

Fiona Knight sighed.

Diana Hershey also tried consoling Fiona Knight, “Fiona, don’t overthink it. You have absolutely nothing to do with this.”

Three days later, a local court in Olsand Village brought a lawsuit against several individuals.

In the first trial, Beatrice Black and Gregory Diet, a couple, were sentenced to twelve years of imprisonment. All of their assets were frozen and the $150,000 they had swindled from Rachel was returned to her.

Dalton Tavas and Jimmy Mayhew, another couple, were sentenced to three years of imprisonment.

Zachary Mayhew was sentenced to ten years of imprisonment.

Sid Winslet, the old man who had bought Dolores Frieman, was sentenced to ten years of imprisonment.

Hearing the verdict, Rachel Barton, Dolores Frieman, and Delia Frieman, the three sisters, clutched their heads and sobbed.

Especially Dolores Frieman and Delia Frieman.

They originally thought that their lives were doomed to wallow in the mud. To their surprise, even in the darkest night, there can be a ray of light.

And that light was Viola Thompson!

Dolores Frieman, looking at her two sisters, spoke firmly, “From now on, we three sisters must strive to live well, and make a life for ourselves in Capital City.”

Rachel Barton and Delia Frieman nodded in agreement.

Dolores Frieman continued, “Miss Thompson is a good person. She not only brought us out of Olsand Village but also gave me and second sister a decent job. Rachel, no matter where we go in the future, we must never forget her kindness.”

“I know, big sis.”

Delia Frieman suggested, “Today is a good day. Why don’t we buy some groceries and invite Miss Thompson over for dinner tonight? She has done us such a huge favor, and we never formally thanked her.”

Dolores Frieman absolutely agreed with Delia Frieman’s words.

Naturally, Rachel Barton also had no objection, “Then I will message Viola about it.”

Dolores Frieman added, “Make sure to invite Miss Thompson’s fiancé, too!”

“Alright, big sis.”

The Thompson Residence

Just as Viola Thompson was responding to Rachel Barton’s message, the doorbell rang.

Mantou immediately ran to open the door.

The door opened, but the person outside did not enter. Instead, they called out, “Young Miss Thompson.”

“Housekeeper, please come in.”

The housekeeper, being a very disciplined person, only entered upon hearing Viola’s voice.

“Miss Thompson, the matter you asked me to handle last time has been taken care of.” The housekeeper handed a pack of documents to Viola.

Viola took the documents from the housekeeper, “Thank you.”

“Miss Thompson, you are too polite. This is my duty.” After saying this, the housekeeper’s gaze fell on the bowl of ginseng soup next to Viola, and continued, “I also owe you thanks, Miss Thompson. Ever since I began taking your medicine, I have not suffered from insomnia.”

This Miss Thompson was unlike any other.

The housekeeper initially thought Viola wouldn’t use the ginseng he gifted. After all, as Young Miss Thompson, Viola had seen all sorts of high-quality goods and wouldn’t care for his humble gift of ginseng. He thought that she had accepted it only as a formality and then thrown it into the garbage bin.

Unexpectedly, after that, Viola drank a bowl of ginseng chicken soup every night, using the ginseng he had gifted!

Being recognized by Viola also brought him a sense of accomplishment!

Thus, the housekeeper held great respect for Young Miss Thompson.

As long as Viola made a request, he would do his utmost to fulfill it.

“It’s just a small act of kindness, so don’t worry about it,” said Viola, as she looked at the documents in her hand. Then she added, “By the way, among all our housemaids, Aunt Zhang has been working here the longest, hasn’t she?”

“Yes,” the housekeeper nodded, “She started working here when the second miss was just three years old.”
