Substitute Marriage: Reborn As The Top Big-Shot
Chapter 1428 - Chapter 1428 357 All the people of the Lentz Clan are

Chapter 1428: 357: All the people of the Lentz Clan are passionate lovers! _1 Chapter 1428: 357: All the people of the Lentz Clan are passionate lovers! _1 The Thompson family was being tactful, implying a change in plans in hopes that the Lentz clan would take a hint and back off.

What a pity.

There wasn’t a single wise one in the Lentz clan.

This Eleanor Armstrong naively thought the Thompson family truly changed the date.

Sophie was quite smug, looking at Eleanor Armstrong and asked, “Mom, when did Miss Thompson reschedule the meeting?”

“Originally it was the 26th, but now they’ve changed it to the 28th,” Eleanor Armstrong responded.

Sophie nodded, “It’s been postponed by two days. Something important must have happened.”

At this point, Sophie paused and said, “Mom, don’t worry. The Thompsons are VIPs, they keep their word. They said the 28th and they surely won’t change it again.”

Every word she uttered had layers of meaning.

Indirectly, Sophie was reminding Mary Perryne that the Thompson Clan was not an ordinary household. They are truly an esteemed family, how could they ever fancy a trash like Terrence Lentz?

And he really was the worst of the worse.

Realizing this, the mockery in Sophie’s eyes became more clear, “By the way mom, did Miss Thompson tell you why they suddenly changed the date?”

Eleanor Armstrong frowned slightly, she was not a fool. She knew her two daughters-in-law never regarded Terrence highly, and naturally understood the underlying meaning of Sophie’s words.

Even though she was fairly insecure, Eleanor didn’t want to reveal any uncertainty in front of her daughter-in-law. She smiled and said to Sophie, “A friend of Viola’s father has passed away, that’s why they changed the date out of the blue.”

Sawyer Thompson’s friend died?

This sounded ridiculous to Sophie.

Sawyer Thompson was the patriarch of the Thompson family, a well-respected figure. Whoever was able to make friends with him couldn’t be an ordinary person.

The news of such a significant individual’s demise would surely be plastered all over the media outlets.

But now, it’s suspiciously quiet.

Quite evident.

These were just excuses made by the Thompson family.

Sophie nodded, “So, that’s what happened!”

Eleanor was feeling quite confused and didn’t want to keep up with Sophie’s antics. She continued, “I have a yoga class this afternoon. I have to go now.”

After saying that, she turned and left.

In Sophie’s perspective, it seemed like Eleanor was somewhat fleeing in panic.

Watching Eleanor’s back, Sophie burst into laughter.

“Hahaha, how interesting.”

“What are you laughing at?” Charlotte Young came down from the spiral staircase, looked at Sophie and asked, completely puzzled.

Sophie, still looking in Eleanor’s direction, said, “Do you know? Someone’s yoga class starts at 2 o’clock in the afternoon, but she left at less than 9 o’clock!”

“What’s so funny about that?” Charlotte frowned, completely missing Sophie’s point.

At this point, as if remembering something, Charlotte asked, “Right, weren’t they supposed to go to Capital City today? Did they go?”

Here, ‘they’ referred to Eleanor Armstrong and Harlan Lentz.

“That’s exactly what I’m laughing at,” Sophie giggled, “She went to attend her yoga class. Do you think she can still go to Capital City?”

Although Charlotte expected that the Thompson family would never truly meet the Lentz Clan, she was still very curious about the whole process.

Sophie provided a colorful account of the whole event and concluded, “They really thought the Thompsons would meet them! Overestimating themselves, the Thompson clan postponed the meeting out of courtesy for Miss Thompson, giving them time to back out. If they knew any better, they’d have declined the meeting themselves! Unfortunately, they remain oblivious and are still waiting for the meeting on the 28th! Isn’t that the definition of not knowing when to quit?”

Pride comes before a fall.

What a shame.

Her clueless parents-in-law and their good-for-nothing son failed to see that.

Charlotte snorted, “They’ve been shameless for more than just a day or two! When the Thompsons publicly pulled a swap in front of the whole city, replacing Elizabeth Thompson with an adopted daughter, the entire Lentz clan became a laughingstock!”

If the Lentz parents had any self-awareness, they wouldn’t have had to wait for Emma Thompson and others to publicly fool them!

They should have broken off the engagement themselves.

Withdrawing from an engagement and being replaced as the bride are two different matters.

You should know, back then, Viola was not Miss Thompson; she was just a village girl.

Replacing a young lady of privilege with a village girl was a blatant insult to the Lentz Clan.

Mocking the Lentz for being only worthy of a village girl.
