Chapter 1680: 408: Viola: I am love-brained!_4 Chapter 1680: 408: Viola: I am love-brained!_4 Naren narrowed her eyes, “Wallis, who told you this?”
Wallis replied, “Everyone's saying it! Naren, you're so focused on your work, you might not know about the Lentz Clan.”
“What happened with the Lentz Clan?” Naren curiously asked.
Wallis glanced around, lowered her voice, and said, “The Lentz Clan is going to collapse!”
“What do you mean?”
Wallis continued, “Not long ago, Bartley Lentz and Len Lentz, the two brothers, just split from their parents' household. Now, they've gone their separate ways! You tell me, with these two pillars gone, can the Lentz Clan still stand?”
The Lentz Clan was able to maintain its current state entirely due to the hard work and careful management of Bartley Lentz and Len Lentz.
Without these two brothers, the Lentz Clan wouldn't be what it is today.
Naren narrowed her eyes, curious, “Why would Bartley Lentz and Len Lentz split from the family all of a sudden?”
“Of course, to cut ties with Terrence Lentz!” Wallis continued, “Think about it, Naren! Terrence is still occupying the position of Miss Thompson's fiance. Once the two families break off the engagement, the Thompson Clan will surely settle accounts with the Lentz Clan! If they didn't split the family, Bartley and Len would definitely get dragged down as well.”
Upon hearing this, Naren immediately understood.
So that was it.
Something seemed to occur to Wallis, and she added, “Naren, I remember you and Terrence were childhood friends?”
Childhood friends?
With Terrence?
Naren denied such childhood friendships.
“Wallis, are you sure you remember correctly? I've never been close to him since childhood.”
Wallis scratched her head, “Didn't your family used to be neighbors with the Lentz Clan?”
Naren smiled, “I moved abroad as soon as I started remembering things, so my impression of Terrence isn't very deep.”
As a child, Naren indeed enjoyed following Terrence around.
After all, Terrence was a child prodigy at the time.
However, Terrence behaved like a little adult back then; he didn't like to play or jump in mud puddles, and he was always holding a book.
His daily life was just reading, reading, and more reading.
Wallis nodded, “So that's how it was.”
Just then, Wallis glanced over in a direction, a bit surprised, “Terrence is also coming this way. He isn't also heading to Country Polluton, is he?”
Naren turned to look and indeed saw Terrence.
Naren frowned subtly.
Was Terrence recognizing her and trying to greet her?
No!
She refused.
After greeting her, Terrence would undoubtedly talk about looking after each other after arriving in Country Polluton.
Naren frowned subtly again.
As Terrence approached closer, Naren prayed in her heart that he wouldn't recognize her.
“Hello, you…”
Unfortunately, what she feared happened.
Terrence walked over to Naren and Wallis.
Naren was speechless, a look of disgust in her eyes, she put on her sunglasses and, pulling Wallis's hand without turning back, said, “Sorry, you've got the wrong person!”
How unlucky!
At that moment, Naren just wanted to get away from Terrence fast.
Moreover, she had just denied being close to Terrence in her childhood in front of Wallis a second ago.
What if Terrence called her by her childhood nickname in front of Wallis?
As a child, Wallis had rhinitis, so her face was always covered in mucus, leading everyone to call her “Snotty”.
Terrence, with no particular expression on his face, walked over to a staff member nearby, “Hello, I just found this wallet here.”
The staff member took the wallet and said, “Would you mind registering your information so the owner can thank you?”
“No need,” Terrence said curtly, with his thin lips parting slightly.
A moment.
He went to the rest area, took out a tissue, and meticulously wiped his fingers.
It was as if his fingers had been tainted by some disgusting filth.
Over here.
Wallis looked a bit surprised and said to Naren, “Naren, did Terrence just recognize you?”
Naren nodded, “It seems like that should be the case.”
Wallis laughed, “I really hadn't expected that after all these years, he still recognizes you! Naren, do you think Terrence Lentz could be interested in you?”
Hearing this, Naren frowned in disgust.
She found herself fortunate to have many suitors.
But if one of those suitors was Terrence Lentz, she would feel nauseated.
She was not Viola Thompson.
She didn't have a mind absorbed in love.
Naren continued, “Probably not!”
“Why else would he come over to talk to you?” Wallis continued, “After all, you two grew up together from childhood, maybe he had a crush on you since then! You are his unattainable saudade!”
Wallis thought more and more that was the case.
Apart from that explanation, no other made sense.
Naren was utterly grossed out!
After all, she was a successful person, and those who liked her were also young and influential elites. What was Terrence Lentz?
What right did he have to like her?
“Stop it, Wallis,” Naren holding back her discomfort, continued, “I am not a Dollar, not everyone has to like me. Maybe he just wanted to say hello!”
Right.
That was it, she didn't want to be liked by such a good-for-nothing.
Wallis laughed, “Naren, I was just saying, don't take it seriously.”
Naren smiled, remaining silent.
Six hours later.
The plane safely landed at Country Polluton's airport.
At that time, it was one o'clock in the afternoon in Country Polluton.
As soon as Naren disembarked, she saw a tall, slender figure.
He wore a black shirt, his thin lips slightly pursed, with a typical domineering CEO face from idol dramas and an aura of inaccessibility.
Holding a suitcase, every step he took was assertive.
Naren was about to admire how handsome the man was and his dignified air, surely of noble origin.
The next second, she realized.
This was the good-for-nothing famous in River City.
Terrence Lentz?!
How could it be such a coincidence?
Could it really be like Wallis said, that Terrence Lentz came to Country Polluton for her?
Then…
How did Terrence Lentz know she was coming to Country Polluton?
Naren was speechless, took a deep breath, and wanted to go up to Terrence Lentz to clarify.
But she feared that Terrence Lentz might cling to her.
With no choice, Naren had to take a detour and leave.
It was such horrendous luck!
Meanwhile.
As Terrence Lentz arrived at the arrival gate, he spotted a familiar figure.
Standing there among the crowd, she became a beautiful sight.
At the same moment, Viola Thompson and Terrence Lentz's eyes met.
She slightly curved her lips, “Lentz.”
“Viola.”
He walked briskly towards her, then feeling it was too slow, he ran to her side.
The two embraced each other.
Just like countless regular couples, the girl jumped into the boy's arms, her legs tightly wrapped around his waist, her arms around his neck, their gazes full of longing.
At this moment, the rest of the airport and everything in it turned into mere backdrops.
“Weren't you supposed to have a meeting this afternoon?” he rubbed the top of her head.
Viola slightly looked up, sparks in her eyes, “I have a love-struck brain. A love-struck brain finds her boyfriend more important than meetings.”
