Chapter 1679: 408: Huanhuan: I am love-brained!_3 Chapter 1679: 408: Huanhuan: I am love-brained!_3 “Okay,” Edward Armstrong nodded.
Christina Armstrong followed the two out of the house and saw them to the door.
Quietly, Olivia Armstrong handed Christina Armstrong a thousand yuan, lowering her voice, “Christina, this thousand yuan is from your little aunt; don't let your parents know. If you want anything to eat or drink, just buy it yourself. If you run out of money, you can always tell your little aunt.”
Christina Armstrong wanted to say something, but Olivia patted her hand.
Her niece's plight was all too clear to her.
As an aunt, this was all she could do.
After all, these were her brother's family matters, and it was not her place to interfere too much.
Christina Armstrong looked at Olivia's profile, her heart filled with a thousand words, yet she ended up not knowing what to say.
Olivia continued, “Go back and comfort your father. His life hasn't been easy!”
“Yes.”
Windy Armstrong opined discontentedly, “What do you mean his life hasn't been easy? He brought this on himself! It was he who insisted on marrying Sabrina Black!”
There were so many nice girls in the village he didn't want.
He had to have Sabrina Black!
If that wasn't bringing it on himself, what was?
Christina Armstrong felt the same, that her father had brought this upon himself.
A grown man, yet possessing none of the fortitude expected of one.
How much better it would have been if her parents had never gotten together!
That way,
She wouldn't have even existed!
Olivia sighed, “Let's not talk about the past.”
Perhaps,
This was simply Edward Armstrong's fate.
Upon reaching the turn ahead, Olivia and Windy stopped.
Windy looked at Christina Armstrong, “All right, Christina, you should head back now; this is far enough. Your aunt and I can walk back on our own.”
“Big aunt, little aunt, be careful on your way back,” Christina responded.
“Okay.”
Olivia nodded her head.
After Christina Armstrong left, Windy lamented, “Wasn't Christina once a promising student? If she had gone to college normally, she'd be a white-collar worker by now! That Sabrina Black is really no good!”
Hearing this, Olivia also felt it was a great pity.
A girl without education really suffers in society.
When Christina Armstrong had dropped out of school, Isla Astir was still young, and the financial situation of Olivia and William Astir wasn't great; if she could have, she wouldn't have just watched Christina being forced to drop out.
Olivia then added, “Sister, actually, it's not all Sabrina Black's fault. Edward shares half the responsibility.”
Sabrina Black's arrogance was all enabled by Edward Armstrong.
If only Edward had been a bit more assertive, things might not have turned out this way.
Christina Armstrong returned home.
The atmosphere inside was still tense.
Sabrina Black called out to Christina Armstrong, “Wait a moment.”
Christina Armstrong looked at her, “Mom, what is it?”
Sabrina continued, “Did your big aunt and little aunt say anything to you?”
Christina shook her head, “No.”
Sabrina narrowed her eyes, “Really nothing?”
Christina nodded her head.
After a moment, Sabrina asked again, “Did they give you any money?”
“No.”
Hearing this, Sabrina rolled her eyes, “They are really stingy!”
Not a penny spent.
On the other side.
Terrence Lentz, carrying his luggage, appeared at River City Airport.
He had no assistants with him.
After collecting his boarding pass, he began to go through security, preparing to board his plane.
At that moment,
Someone in the crowd recognized him.
“Naren, isn't that Terrence Lentz?”
Turning around, Naren indeed saw a familiar face.
Naren and Terrence Lentz had known each other for ages.
Their families lived close to each other, but after Naren went abroad for her studies, the two families lost touch.
When they were young, their parents had joked about arranging a marriage between them.
But then the Thompson Clan got there first.
Naren was very thankful to Elizabeth Thompson.
If it weren't for Elizabeth appearing in time to save her, she would have ended up as Terrence Lentz's fiancee.
At least Elizabeth Thompson had a substitute.
Naren had nothing.
Naren narrowed her eyes; after all these years, Terrence Lentz hadn't lost his looks.
He still looked the same as when he was a child.
Full of youthful vigor.
Standing there, he stood out from the crowd.
Unfortunately,
His status fell short.
Otherwise, he would have been a pretty good choice.
After a moment, Naren looked at her companion and asked, “Does Terrence Lentz currently have an engagement with the Young Miss Thompson Family from Capital City?”
It seems Terrence Lentz really had a stroke of luck.
Her companion nodded, “Yeah.”
As the words fell, the companion added, “But I heard that the Thompson family really doesn't fancy Terrence Lentz; they're already working on calling off the engagement. It was a relationship that wasn't right from the start, and I don't know how the Lentz Clan has the nerve to go around saying Miss Thompson is Terrence Lentz's fiancee!”
