Chapter 1451: 361: Directly slap in the face! _4 Chapter 1451: 361: Directly slap in the face! _4 Can't we let the past go?
Do we have to keep bringing it up and making others feel disgusted?
Moreover.
Nothing was wrong with Ethel.
Who hasn't been crazy for love in their youth?
Norma showed a slight frown, “Mother, you don't need to be so angry. There's something fundamentally wrong with Mary. Otherwise, she wouldn't neglect to visit her grandmother for so many years.”
If Mary had any conscience, out of respect for her late father, Dick, she wouldn't ignore her stepmother, who's seriously ill.
This isn't something a person should do.
Phoebe looked at Norma and continued, “Norma, could you tell me what exactly happened today?”
The thing she was referring to was naturally about Terrence.
Hearing this, Norma shook her head, “I also find it strange. The information clearly shows that Terrence is a good-for-nothing who didn't even manage to finish junior high school.”
The reason she video-called Professor Will was to expose Terrence's lies.
Unexpectedly…
Phoebe continued, “Aren't you familiar with Professor Will? How about you contact him and ask about it?”
“We'll contact Professor Will when we get back home.”
Phoebe rubbed her forehead, “I've had it with today! I can't believe that we let Mary steal the limelight!”
The original plan was to make Mary uncomfortable. Unexpectedly, she ended up making the situation unpleasant for herself.
“No need to rush,” the look on Norma's face was surprisingly calm, “There's plenty of time in the future.”
We'll take our time.
Phoebe looked at Norma, and the anger in her eyes was replaced by pride.
Her daughter was knowledgeable and sensible, destined for great things.
Quite unlike those of the Thompson Clan.
They lack manners; they don't even know how to address others properly.
At this, Norma continued, “Mother, we must mind our behavior in the coming days.”
After all, we're in Capital City.
Norma was a cautious person; she didn't want to cause future trouble for herself.
Phoebe was no fool either, nodded, and said: “Understood. By the way, Norma, we've been in the Capital City for two days, but we haven't seen Marcus White yet….”
She thought that Marcus White would show up at the Thompson's today.
The two families have deep ties after all.
Who would have thought, Marcus didn't show up at all!
Norma squinted her eyes, “Mother, I remember that Father had some dealings with the Tiarks Clan, right? The Lady of the Tiarks family's 48th birthday is in three days. We can visit Mrs. Zacks on behalf of Father.”
Hearing this, Phoebe furrowed her brows and asked doubtfully, “Will Marcus also attend?”
“But I heard Marcus is stingy by nature. Will he really attend such a birthday party?”
Attending a birthday party isn't it customary to bring a gift?
Doesn't it require a red envelope?
Can he bear to part with it?
Norma let out a light laugh, “Others may not be willing, but Mrs. Zacks is different.”
“What's so different?” Phoebe immediately asked.
Norma explained, “Because Mrs. Zacks is Marcus White's sister, Grace White.”
Marcus may have excuses to skip anyone else's birthday.
But could he have an excuse for his own sister's birthday?
Phoebe nodded, squinting her eyes, “So that's how it is.”
Her daughter was really potent, indeed destined for great things. She had only just returned to the country and had already grasped all the details.
Making a mental note, Norma turned to Phoebe and continued, “However, Mother, you'll have to handle this matter. We can't visit the White family without notice.”
Phoebe, being adept at socializing, confidently responded, “Rest assured, I'll handle this.”
Soon.
The car arrived at the hotel entrance.
After returning to the hotel, Norma immediately called Professor Will to ask about Terrence.
Professor Will didn't say much, only confirming that Terrence Lentz was indeed a student of the Business Administration Department at Eston University.
However, because he only came back to take exams during his studies, his understanding of Terrence wasn't very detailed.
After hanging up on Professor Will, Norma's brows furrowed slightly.
It seemed that the rumors were wrong.
Terrence wasn't an illiterate who hadn't even finished junior high school.
Norma paced back and forth in front of the window.
However she thought about it, she felt something was off.
How could someone like Viola Thompson be willing to marry Terrence?
Even if Terrence was a graduate of Eston University,
Viola would probably still not hold him in high regard.
Upon this thought, Norma took out her cell phone again and dialed a number.
“Hello, help me check on someone.”
“Okay, I'll send you the information in a bit.”
“Thanks for your trouble.”
After hanging up the call, Norma sent the basic information on Terrence to the other party.
