Substitute Marriage: Reborn As The Top Big-Shot
/ Substitute Marriage: Reborn As The Top Big-Shot Chapter 1573
Chapter 1573: 388: How absurd the mistake is! _2 Chapter 1573: 388: How absurd the mistake is! _2 Hearing these words, Harlan Lentz's nose soured.
Even though Terrence Lentz is currently the least capable among his three sons, he is the most filial.
He has always remembered the matter of traveling around the world.
This was a promise he had made to Eleanor Armstrong in his youth.
Over all these years, even he had almost forgotten it, but Terrence Lentz remembered it still.
This took Harlan Lentz by surprise.
Harlan Lentz struggled to suppress his underlying emotions and managed a slight smile. He looked at Terrence Lentz, “What trouble? You mustn't overthink, as for business matters, all your mother and I need do is talk, we don't have to do everything ourselves!”
Speaking up to here, Harlan Lentz continued, “In all these years, where haven't your mother and I been? To travel the world again! What a waste of time and money!”
We can talk about traveling the world later.
Harlan Lentz is not a selfish kind of person.
The most important issue now is to support Terrence Lentz, to help him establish a home and start a career.
As Terrence Lentz folded the tent, he said, “Dad, don't worry, I have a handle on my affairs. I have already arranged the world travel matter. My secretary will contact you in a few days, and you just need to follow her instructions.”
A secretary?
Harlan Lentz was greatly surprised, he halted his actions, “Secretary? What secretary?”
Terrence Lentz was an idle vagabond, where did a secretary come from?
For a moment, Harlan Lentz thought he was experiencing auditory hallucinations.
Terrence Lentz continued, “Dad, there's something I've wanted to tell you for a long time.”
“What is it?” Harlan Lentz asked curiously.
Terrence Lentz opened his thin lips a little, “Actually… I have another identity.”
“What identity?”
Harlan Lentz looked at Terrence Lentz.
Seeing his serious face, Harlan Lentz became a little nervous, swallowed hard and said, “Terrence, you–you didn't do anything illegal, did you?”
As long as Terrence Lentz's other identity was not that of a murderer, Harlan Lentz felt he could accept it.
Terrence Lentz shook his head slightly, “No.”
Hearing that, Harlan Lentz exhaled in relief. He then asked, “So what is it?”
“I am Terrence.”
Terrence Lentz spoke in a light tone, and there was not even a hint of ripple on his face.
As if being Mr. Terrence was not anything outstanding at all.
Getting to this point, Terrence Lentz paused, then continued, “So Dad, you don't have to worry about me anymore. The most important thing now is for you and Mom to be happy.”
Terrence?
When Terrence Lentz mentioned Terrence, was he referring to Mr. Terrence?
How is that possible!
“What did you say?” Harlan Lentz thought he was hallucinating and asked incredulously.
Terrence Lentz continued, “I am Terrence.”
After making sure he heard right, Harlan Lentz asked in disbelief, “Did you say you're Mr. Terrence?”
“Hmm.” Terrence Lentz nodded slightly, explaining, “I didn't tell you and Mom before because I don't think humanity can withstand trials.”
Since the car accident, Terrence Lentz began to see some things he couldn't normally see, so he became full of doubts about human nature.
He became apathetic.
He no longer believed there were true feelings in this world.
He began to hide his talents, disguising himself as a good-for-nothing.
Indeed, just as he had thought.
Once he lost the halo of a genius, those people revealed their true faces.
In the past, Terrence Lentz felt that the whole world was full of goodwill towards him.
But since then.
What Terrence Lentz saw was all the evil in human nature.
It was only now that Terrence Lentz came to know.
Humanity is multifaceted.
There are good and bad sides.
Sometimes, goodwill might come from an unfamiliar stranger.
Sometimes, malicious intent might come from one's own relatives.
All this requires his own understanding and experience.
Previously, Terrence Lentz was so pessimistic that he felt even his own parents would abandon him.
“Terrence, stop joking!” Harlan Lentz chuckled, “For people like us, even being able to claim a familial relationship with Mr. Terrence would be a great honor!”
And there was Terrence Lentz, claiming outright that he is Mr. Terrence himself.
Fortunately, there were no strangers present.
Getting to this point, Harlan Lentz paused and looked at Terrence Lentz, “Terrence, such words you can say in front of me, but you must never say them in front of Viola.”
They are, after all, father and son.
If Viola Thompson heard him say that, she would definitely think Terrence Lentz was unreliable.
Looking at Harlan Lentz like this, Terrence Lentz felt a bit helpless, “Dad, I really am Terrence.”
