    Upon hearing that, Linda curiously asked, “Which young girl is so rude? She even dares to nder Old Doctor Bruce!”


    Not to mention River City, but even throughout Sinian Country, there are probably very few people who dare to speak ill of Old Doctor Bruce!


    Angus said, “I don’t know whose family shees from. Anyway, it’s very annoying! If it were my daughter, I would definitely educate her well!”


    Even now, Angus was still angry when he thought about what happened earlier.


    After all, Old Doctor Bruce was someone he had admired since he was young.


    Lindaughed and said, “Young people nowadays are like that, impetuous and unbearable. They feel like they can look down on everything in the world when they achieve a little sess, but in fact, they are nothing. Why do you bother with such people?”


    “You’re right,” Angus nodded.


    Soon, the servant brought the prepared medicine, “Madam, the medicine is ready.”


    Upon hearing that, Edith Bet was very excited and sat up from the bed.


    “Give it to me.”


    Edith Bet took the bowl of medicine and frowned after taking a sip.


    It was too bitter!


    But thinking that she would be able to restore her appearance soon, she gritted her teeth and drank it all.


    After drinking the medicine, Edith Bet fell into a deep sleep.


    Looking at her sleeping daughter, Linda finally let out a sigh of relief.


    Since her daughter’s disfigurement, she hadn’t slept well, even if she did fall asleep, she would wake up from nightmares.


    Linda looked up at Angus and whispered, “I owe you a lot for this!”


    Old Doctor Bruce hadn’t given a medical consultation for many years, and Angus had spent a great deal to get him here this time.


    “It’s what I’m supposed to do,” Angus said.


    Continuing, Linda asked, “Will Old Doctor Brucee again?”


    Although Edith had already taken the medicine, she was still a little worried without seeing Old Doctor Bruce in person.


    Angus nodded, “He said he woulde for a follow-up visit in three days.”


    “Okay.”


    On the other side.


    The Lentz n.


    After more than half a month of being busy outside, Han Lentz finally returned home.


    He was already 64 years old this year, but he looked much younger than his actual age. People often joked that he and his sons looked like real brothers.


    “You finally decided toe back?” Eleanor Armstrong saw Han Lentz and didn’t give him a good look.


    Seeing his wife’s sulking face, Han was confused, “What’s wrong?”


    Eleanor frowned, “Do you know that the engagement between Terrence and Miss Thompson ising up?


    “Yeah.” Han nodded.


    Speaking of this marriage, Han was actually a bit puzzled.


    Terrence was unreliable, and he was worried that Emma wouldn’t like him.


    After all,pared to Emma, Terrence was far behind.


    Han pinched his temples, “I’ve been preparing for this matter recently, and I know what I’m doing.”


    Hearing her husband say this, Eleanor was somewhat satisfied, “What do you n to give him for his engagement this time?”


    Hearing this, Han frowned, “He’s already grown up, you can’t keep spoiling him! A doting mother often spoils her child! You’re half responsible for him bing the way he is now!”


    At this point, Han scratched his hair and continued, “The year it happened, I said we should send him to the hospital for treatment, but you all insisted on stopping it! Now he’s be like this, all he knows is to ask us for money.


    What’s the difference between him and a useless person?”


    Over the years, Terrence had aplished nothing, except for asking for money, he was incapable of anything else.


    As a father, Han felt extremely sad and disappointed!


    “My son is not sick! Why should he go to a mental hospital?” Eleanor was furious upon hearing this, “Did you ever consider Terrence’s feelings!”


    Back then, after Terrence suffered a car ident, he was diagnosed with severe depression.


    The doctor suggested sending Terrence to a psychiatric nursing home for treatment, but was strongly opposed by Eleanor and Patriarch Lentz.


    A mental hospital? What kind of ce was that?


    Even if one stayed there for just a few days, they would probably turn from sane to insane!


    “The doctor said that depression is also a psychological illness! You just have to argue with me to the end!” Han said irritably as he took out a cigarette, “If the Thompson n breaks off the engagement at the banquet, our family will be theughingstock of the entire River City!”


    “The Thompson n won’t break off the engagement! Miss Thompson is not that kind of person!” Eleanor said very confidently.


    Han sighed, people’s hearts were unpredictable, and no one knew what would happen in the future.


    “Even if Miss Thompson is a good person and won’t break off the engagement, Terrence is already 26 years old, not 16! As an adult, he should learn to be self-reliant. Otherwise, what will he do when he gets married and has children? Don’t always think about giving him money! ”


    It was precisely because Patriarch Lentz and Eleanor had been spoiling Terrence, giving him money without restraint, that Terrence had developed a sense of dependence!


    “What’s wrong with me giving him money! Our family has so much money, let alone supporting one of him, even if there were ten more, it wouldn’t be a problem! Terrence has already gone through so much pain. As a father, you don’tfort him, but instead add insult to injury!”


    By the end of it, Eleanor’s eyes were red.


    Han took a puff of his cigarette and looked at his wife, his tone softened, “Eleanor, you know I didn’t mean that. Do you think I’m not saddened by the way Terrence is now? As a father, I just want what’s best for him! I want him more than anybody to stand up again! A real man shouldn’t be looked down upon!”


    As a mother, Eleanor naturally knew that Han’s goal was for Terrence’s sake, but at the same time, as a mother, she couldn’t bear to see Terrence suffer.


    “Do you think I want this? You know how much pain Terrence suffered before!” Eleanor’s eyes were slightly reddened, “Do you think Terrence isn’t sad? He used to be such a proud person, what has he be now? Who can he talk to about his suffering? As a mother, I don’t want my child to be sessful, I just want him to be happy!”


    Han took a puff of his cigarette, and an indescribable feeling came to his heart as the events from thirteen years ago reappeared before his eyes.


    After a while, Han put out his cigarette butt and sighed, “Forget it! You’re right, we earn money just for our children to spend, right? While I still have the energy, I should umte more capital for him.”


    The next day.


    Olga suppressed her anger and brought a designer dress for Vi Thompson,


    “Change into this and go to a tea party with me and Emmater.”


    Speaking of which, Olga added, “Speak less when you’re there, follow Emma around, and do whatever she asks. Don’t embarrass us!”


    Rich wives and youngdies from famous families attended the tea party. If Vi Thompson did something embarrassing, it might affect Elizabeth Thompson!


    Olga stood in front of Vi Thompson, looking down upon her.


    She could already imagine the reaction from Vi Thompson.


    Vi Thompson would be very excited and grateful to her!


    After all, for someone like Vi Thompson who came from a rural vige, she had never attended a tea party or worn a high-quality designer dress before.


    Vi Thompson was nestled in a hanging chair on the balcony reading a book, with a look of quiet contentment.


    Hearing Olga’s words, she onlyzily raised her eyes, sunlight poured onto her jade-like face, “I’m not avable.” It was a very simple two-word reply.


    Not avable?


    Olga slightly frowned and thought she must have heard wrong.


    Vi Thompson meant that she wasn’t going to the tea party?
