Chapter 649: 218: Abuse a scumbag, their face will turn pale_6


    Edward Thompson coldly said, “Let’s not tter ourselves. They will not treat us kindly.”


    If Mrs. Thompson still had a ce in her heart for him, her own grandson, she would not havepletely cut off contact after returning to the country.


    It was clear; Mrs. Thompson had been thoroughly brainwashed by Vi Thompson.


    Upon hearing this, Sylvia sighed.


    Edward’s grip on the steering wheel tightened a little.


    Just wait and see!


    He would definitely make a name for himself and make the Thompson Family regret their actions.


    Before long, the car stopped in front of a restaurant.


    They both got out of the car.


    Edward led Sylvia into the restaurant one after the other.<div>


    They were here today to meet a famous director.


    The studio had been open for quite a while, and they had only contracted a few minor artists, all of whom had yet tond any roles. This was causing worry for Edward, who understood that he could not remain idle anymore – he had to utilize the rtionships he had cultivated over the years.


    Edward booked the ce in advance, and they arrived before Mr. Perry.


    Edward ordered two drinks and chatted with Sylvia while they waited for Mr. Perry.


    Jason Wycof and his mother were also dining at the same restaurant.


    At this moment, Jason noticed Edward.


    Jason was someone who didn’t pay much attention to entertainment news, so he was unaware of the fallout between Edward Thompson and the Thompson n. He turned to his mother, Mother Lu, “Mom, I see a familiar face. I’m going to say hi.”


    Upon hearing this, his mother nodded, “Go ahead.”


    Jason got up and walked over towards Edward. “Mr. Thompson.”


    Seeing Jason, Edward immediately stood up from his chair. “Governor Lu.”


    Jason gave a small nod and looked at the empty seat across from Edward, “Mr. Thompson, are you here for a meal with your girlfriend?”


    Edward exined, “I am here with my sister. She just went to the washroom.”


    Having heard this, Jason chuckled, “So, Miss Thompson is also here. I was hoping to express my gratitude to her in person.”


    Seeing Jason acting this way, Edward narrowed his eyes. This Jason…


    Could he be interested in Sylvia?


    Jason was both powerful and influential, and if Sylvia were to marry him, it would be no different from her marrying Mr. White.


    At this point, Edward was already looking at Jason with the eyes of a future brother-inw.


    There was pride in his heart.


    His sister was just that excellent, able to charm people effortlessly wherever she went; even someone of Jason’s stature was willing to yield to Sylvia.<div>


    Edwardughed, “Governor Lu, please have a seat. My sister should be back any moment now.”


    “Okay,” Jason replied with a slight nod of his head and took a seat across from Edward.


    After a short while, Sylvia began to walk over towards them.


    Upon seeing Jason seated at the table, she quickly adjusted her hairstyling.<div>


    Jason was no inconsequential figure.


    On the contrary, he was a powerful and influential figure in the Capital City!


    At this moment, Edward looked at Sylvia and said with a smile, “Governor Lu, my sister is here.”


    As Jason looked in his direction, a soft smile formed on his lips.


    However, a momentter, the smile gradually disappeared.


    Simply because the person who arrived was not the person he had wanted to see.


    “Sylvia,e over quickly. Governor Lu said he wanted to thank you. We have been waiting for you for quite some time,” Edward said while still looking at Sylvia.


    He wanted to thank her?


    Sylvia’s eyes filled with surprise.


    She had hardly interacted with Jason and had certainly not done him any favors. Why would he suddenly wish to thank her?


    Could it be…


    Was Jason attempting to flirt with her?


    When a man tried to flirt with a woman, he could say anything, no matter how absurd.<div>


    Yes.


    It must be the case.


    With this in mind, Sylvia squinted her eyes triumphantly, looked to Jason and said, “Hello, Governor Lu.”


    Jason didn’t think much of this Thompson adopted girl who was keen on showing off. Hepletely ignored her, focused on Edward, and said directly, “I apologize, Mr. Thompson, I didn’t make myself clear. I’m here to thank Miss Vi Thompson, not Miss Sylvia.”


    Vi?


    Jason wanted to thank Vi!


    How could this be?


    Theplexions of both Edward and Sylvia suddenly turned pale.


    They were both extremely embarrassed.


    Edward was particrly confused. Jason didn’t seem like the type of person who’d decisively take a course of action based on appearance alone. He wouldn’t be attracted to Vi just because she was pretty.


    But now…


    In a moment of silence, Edward looked at Jason and said straightly, “Governor Lu, I must warn you. Vi Thompson is not as simple as you think. She is much moreplicated than Sylvia. Be careful not to be manipted by her.”


    Hearing this, Jason frowned slightly, “Mr. Thompson, I don’t think these are the words a brother should be saying. Furthermore, I don’t know what transpired between you two, but I do know Vi Thompson’s character and I trust her. But as for you, Mr. Thompson, you should be careful not to breed a viper in your bosom.”<div>
