Substitute Marriage: Reborn As The Top Big-Shot

Chapter 831: 255: Powerful Background_4
 

The breakfast was simple.

Sawyer Thompson said: “Mr. White, consider this as your own home, and don’t be so formal.”

“Uncle Thompson, you’re too polite, just call me Xiao Bai.”

Xiao Bai?

Hearing this, Mandel Thompson glanced at his friend.

He thought to himself, when did this guy start being so modest!

This wasn’t the head of the White family he knew.

They had gotten halfway through breakfast.

People started to chat.

Mary Perryne looked at Mr. White, “Xiao Bai, have you found a girlfriend yet?”

“Not yet.” Mr. White shook his head.

Mary Perryne’s eyes widened in exaggeration, “Not yet? You’re not getting any younger, huh?”

She was originally planning to use Mr. White as an example to educate Mandel Thompson properly.

It turned out Mr. White hadn’t found a girlfriend yet!

Mr. White just smiled and said: “There’s no rush.”

“You should be worried,” Mary Perryne sighed, “What’s wrong with young people nowadays? My son Brandon hasn’t found anyone either. I bet he hasn’t even held a girl’s hand yet! He tells me not to worry every day. How can I not worry?”

Mr. White continued: “You can’t rush these things, it’s all about timing.”

Mary Perryne couldn’t help but sigh: “When I was your age, my Brandon was already flying solo. If you guys had kids now and took them out, wouldn’t people think you are their grandparents?”

Mr. White: Felt insulted.

Mandel Thompson was speechless, “Mom, you’re exaggerating!”

“How am I exaggerating?” Mary Perryne continued: “You’re 32 and still don’t have a girlfriend. Assume you find one next year, dating for three years, engagement for a year, marriage for a year, another year to get pregnant and have a baby. By then, aren’t you already 40 years old! That’s the most optimistic paternal age. Now tell me, can you bring a daughter-in-law home next year?”

Mandel Thompson: “….” He was left speechless.

Fortunately, once they finished eating, Mandel Thompson immediately left with Mr. White.

Viola Thompson dragged Ethan Viper out of bed, taking the little guy with her to meet Diana Hershey and Fiona Knight.

The little guy originally didn’t want to get up.

After all, on the days when he didn’t have to go to school, he could sleep until eleven. However, as soon as he heard Viola Thompson was going to take him out to play and meet many beautiful girls, he propped himself up from the bed, “Okay, sis, I will get up right away!”

Soon, Viola Thompson, with Ethan Viper in tow, arrived at the Milk Tea Shop they had agreed upon.

Viola Thompson and Ethan Viper were the first to arrive.

Viola Thompson ordered Milk Tea and waited for them to arrive.

“Sis Xiao Zi and Sister Rachel are here!” Ethan Viper pointed at Rachel Barton and Flora Tiarks at the door.

“Vio!”

Flora Tiarks practically ran over and gave Viola Thompson a big hug, “Long time no see.”

“Long time no see.” Viola Thompson replied with a curved brow.

Immediately, Flora Tiarks gave Ethan Viper a big hug, “Little Ethan!”

Rachel Barton looked at Viola Thompson with envy, “Viola, how come you didn’t get tanned at all during military training? Look at me! I am more than a shade darker!”

Viola Thompson laughed, “I probably get fairer the more I am exposed to the sun.”

“Get fairer with sun exposure?” Rachel Barton laughed, “There’s such a thing? Viola, what brand of sunscreen do you use?”

“My mom bought it for me, I think it’s called HDW.” Viola Thompson explained.

Rachel Barton seemed utterly shocked at hearing this.

HDW.

It’s a top-tier skincare product available only through private customization. It is made depending on the customer’s skin type, so you don’t have to worry about allergies, and the effect is much better than regular skincare products.

Simultaneously, it is very expensive.

The membership fee starts from 100,000 dollars.

Regular people could only dream about it.

No wonder Viola Thompson didn’t tan.

Indeed.

Money is almighty.

Hearing this, Flora Tiarks immediately asked, “Vio, is HDW good? If it is, I will register as a member.”

“It should be okay, I guess, I don’t use it often.”

Viola Thompson would apply a bit of skin cream when she was in a good mood. When she didn’t feel like it, she wouldn’t even bother using a facial cleanser.

Flora Tiarks nodded, “If you think it’s okay Vio, then it must be good. I am going to register as a member tomorrow.”

Diana Hershey said: “I’ll go with you tomorrow.”

“Great.”

Rachel Barton didn’t say a word.

She felt that the gap between herself and girls like Viola Thompson was growing wider.

It felt like she was a galaxy away.

Girls like Diana Hershey and Flora Tiarks, were ready to register for a member’s fee of 100,000 dollars at a moment’s notice, and she…

Thinking about it,

Rachel Barton had an undefinable expression in her eyes.
