/ Substitute Marriage: Reborn As The Top Big-Shot Chapter 1303
Chapter 1303: 330: She is the absolute authority!_3 Chapter 1303: 330: She is the absolute authority!_3 Having had a weak constitution since childhood, Thompson has always idolized Suwen.
Now that she finally has an opportunity to meet her idol up close, she has ruined it with her own hands. How could Thompson swallow such disappointment?
“Vicki, your mother knows, your mother knows everything. But now that things have come to this, we can only let destiny do its job! Vicki, stop being foolish!”
Lady Thompson truly loves Thompson.
But that's all it is, love.
This love doesn't mean that Lady Thompson can indulge Thompson without bounds.
She definitely won't bow her head for Thompson's sake, not even compromising.
Thompson didn't speak, her eyes were full of contemplation.
Rosalind Rohr didn't say anything more, she just said: “Vicki, I'll leave you alone now, think about whether what I said makes sense or not!”
As she finished speaking, Rosalind Rohr turned and left.
Before leaving, she glanced back at Thompson, softly sighing.
This child is good in every way.
Just that her stubbornness is too similar to that of Lady Thompson.
Stubborn to the extreme.
After a while, Rosalind Rohr brought in a bowl of herbal medicine, “Vicki, it's time to take your medicine.”
Thompson's health hasn't been great these past few years, she's always needed to be cared for with expensive medicinal herbs.
The Thompson Clan is wealthy and powerful, an average family simply wouldn't be able to afford this.
Thompson shook her head.
How could she be in the mood to take medicine at a time like this?
Rosalind Rohr held the bowl to Thompson, “Vicki, nothing is more important than your health. Be good, take your medicine.”
Seeing her mother's worried eyes, Thompson reluctantly drank the medicine from the bowl.
All traditional Chinese medicine has the same taste.
Both bitter and astringent.
But Thompson has long since gotten used to it, she didn't even wrinkle her brow.
Once Thompson had finished the medicine, only then did Rosalind Rohr breathe a sigh of relief.
Setting down the bowl, it seemed as though Thompson remembered something, she looked at Rosalind Rohr, “Mom, I need to go see Grandmother.”
This matter must be resolved.
She needed to have a proper talk with Lady Thompson.
Rosalind Rohr quickly caught hold of Thompson's sleeve, furrowing her brows to ask, “Vicki, what are you trying to do?”
Thompson looked at Rosalind Rohr, “Mom, don't worry, I know what I should say, and what I shouldn't.”
Rosalind Rohr was still worried, “Vicki, your grandmother has never backed down to anyone in her life. She is not going to apologize to Miss Thompson. If you go to her now, you are just asking for a scolding!”
A scolding isn't a big deal.
But what if Lady Thompson took a disliking to Thompson because of this incident? What then?
The reason she could hold her head high within the Thompson Clan was purely because Lady Thompson liked her, seeing Thompson as her successor.
Rosalind Rohr knew Lady Thompson very well.
If she angered her, regardless of whether it was her grandchild or even her own parents, Lady Thompson wouldn't show any mercy.
Thompson laughed, “Mom, don't you understand me yet? Don't worry, I'll be right back.”
“Should I come with you?” asked Rosalind Rohr.
If she was there, she might be able to fix things in case Thompson slipped up.
“There's no need,” Thompson looked at Rosalind Rohr, her gaze firm, “Mom, trust me.”
This kind of thing, having one more person there can actually make things worse.
Though Thompson wouldn't allow her to come, Rosalind Rohr still warned, feeling helpless, “Then you must speak nicely, under no circumstances should you confront your grandmother!”
“Okay.” Thompson nodded her head.
Thompson didn't go empty-handed, she specially went to the kitchen and brought a bowl of bird's nest soup.
Lady Thompson's courtyard was quiet.
The servants didn't dare to speak loudly, fearing that even the smallest misstep would anger Lady Thompson.
Especially since she was currently in a bad mood.
With one hand holding the bowl and the other knocking on the door, Thompson spoke gently, “Grandmother, are you in there?”
Lady Thompson was looking at some accounting books, but when she heard Thompson's voice, she immediately looked up, “Is that you, Vicki?”
“It's me.”
“Come in quickly, Vicki.”
Thompson pushed open the door and entered.
“Grandmother, I brought over a bowl of bird's nest soup from the kitchen. Maybe have a few hot sips.”
Lady Thompson nodded, “Alright.”
After finishing the bird's nest soup, Lady Thompson looked at Thompson, and asked: “Vicki, did you go to the LY Hotel?”
“I did.”
Lady Thompson set down the bowl, “Did you see Miss Thompson?”
“No.”
Hearing this, Lady Thompson squinted her eyes, a hint of displeasure flashing across her gaze, “You went personally to apologize to her, but she wasn't willing to meet?”
Thompson repeated what Nathaniel Besian had told her to Lady Thompson.
Already furious, Lady Thompson became even more enraged at these words, she got up, smacking the table as she rose.
