Substitute Marriage: Reborn As The Top Big-Shot
Chapter 1522 - Chapter 1522 378 Not Recognizing Mount Tai_4

Chapter 1522: 378: Not Recognizing Mount Tai_4 Chapter 1522: 378: Not Recognizing Mount Tai_4 Before, she hadn’t known that Mandel Thompson had a date with a girl.

Now that she knew, she naturally wouldn’t play the third wheel.

After all, it was not often that Mandel got a chance to be alone with a girl.

“Should I come pick you up later?” Mandel then asked.

“No need,” Viola responded. “Lentz will take me home.”

On hearing that Terrence Lentz was around, Mandel didn’t ask any further questions.

“Alright then.”

Mandel then said, “There’s Milk Tea in the thermal box.”

“Okay,” Viola took out two cups of Milk Tea from the thermal box and handed one to Isla Astir.

“Sister Astir, you try this.”

“Thank you.”

Viola gave a light smile, “You’re welcome.”

Her gentle smile, like magic, instantly eased the pressure off Isla Astir.

Which was very strange.

Viola took a sip of her Milk Tea, then asked, “Sister Astir, do you like hibiscus flowers?”

“I do,” Isla Astir replied.

Viola divided the bouquet, handed half of it to Isla, and said, “Here, these are for you.”

Isla was embarrassed to accept the flowers offered by Viola, and declined politely, “Thank you, but…”

Viola smiled and said, “These flowers were given to me by an elder. I’m simply passing the gift. Sister Astir, if you don’t accept, it means you don’t want to be friends with me.”

Isla accepted the hibiscus, her hands were slightly trembling due to excitement, “Thank you.”

After all, Viola was the person she admired most.

No one could understand Isla’s feelings at this moment.

It was awesome!

Pleased Plaza was close by.

Soon, the car came to a stop.

Viola got out of the car with her half of the hibiscus bouquet, “Sister Astir, I’ll go first.”

Isla nodded.

Viola then turned towards her brother Mandel in the driver’s seat, “Brother, drive safely.”

“Mm,” Mandel instructed her further, “If Terrence doesn’t come, remember to call me.”

“Alright.”

Mandel added further, “And remember not to talk to strangers.”

Viola couldn’t help but laugh, “Brother, I’m an adult.”

Mandel didn’t say much further, “Then I’m going to take Isla home first.”

“Okay, go ahead,” Viola waved him goodbye.

Mandel drove away.

Viola was holding the flowers as she walked towards the plaza.

At seven in the evening.

The plaza was bustling. Viola found a popular Bucket Rice restaurant and ordered a set meal.

When the food arrived, she took a picture and sent it to Terrence Lentz.

Terrence responded immediately: [Eating alone?]

[Yes, my brother’s gone to pursue a girl.]

[You’re at the Pleased Plaza now?]

[Yes.]

Terrence responded: [Help me order the same Bucket Rice, I’ll be there in ten minutes.]

Viola thought he was joking.

After all, the guy was still in Scotland when they talked last night.

[Alright, what do you want to eat?] Viola responded quite cooperatively.

Terrence: [Same as yours will do.]

Viola sent back an emoji, then focused on her food.

Although the restaurant was a small one, the taste of the Bucket Rice was excellent.

Viola didn’t have the habit of playing with her phone while eating, she always took mealtime seriously and ate slowly.

While eating.

Viola suddenly felt as if someone had taken the seat across from her.

Then, a familiar scent of sandalwood floated over.

Viola paused, then lifted her gaze to see Mr. Lentz, who had been absent for a long time.

The man was wearing a black silk shirt, his refined eyes slightly squinted, looking at her.

She thought she was hallucinating. “Lentz?”

“Mhm, it’s me,” Terrence replied in a low voice.

“When did you get back?” Viola asked.

Terrence responded, “Just arrived.”

“I thought you were joking earlier, so I didn’t order your meal. I’ll go order it for you now.” As she finished her sentence, Viola tried to stand but was stopped by Terrence.

Terrence, still speaking in his low voice, responded, “We can share a meal.”

“Okay,” Viola nodded lightly.

The two special assistants standing at the entrance exchanged confused looks. They saw their shared confusion in each other’s eyes.

Did Mr. Lentz rush them to drive over here just so he could share a Bucket Rice with a young girl?

On the other side.

Mandel had dropped off Isla at her home.

As she got out of the car, Isla said, “Thanks for the ride, Brother Thompson.”

“You’re welcome.”

Isla continued, “Uh, would you like to come in for a cup of tea?”

Mandel glanced at his wristwatch, “Alright.”

Alright?

Isla was stunned.

She had only said it out of politeness. She wasn’t expecting Mandel to agree so readily!

Managed to regroup, though a little surprised, Isla maintained her grace, “Follow me, Brother Thompson.”
