Substitute Marriage: Reborn As The Top Big-Shot
Chapter 1747 - Chapter 1747 423 Cruel Reality

Chapter 1747: 423: Cruel Reality Chapter 1747: 423: Cruel Reality Patriarch Lentz was always worried that Terrence wouldn’t have enough money to spend and tried various ways to give him money.

But whether it was cash or card, Terrence always refused.

Out of desperation, Patriarch Lentz had no choice but to transfer money into Terrence’s account, only to find out that the damn kid had blacklisted all of his bank card numbers.

Upon hearing this, Harlan Lentz furrowed his brows slightly and asked, “Dad, how long has it been since you last gave money to Terrence?”

Squinting his eyes, Patriarch Lentz thought for a while, “Probably a decade or so? Anyway, I haven’t given him any money these years! What’s the matter?”

Hearing this, Harlan Lentz was extremely shocked.

So was Eleanor Armstrong next to him!

What was going on?

Because Terrence had always refused their money, the couple thought Patriarch Lentz had been secretly sponsoring Terrence.

Unexpectedly…

Patriarch Lentz hadn’t given Terrence any money for so many years.

Harlan Lentz continued, “Dad, you’re not joking with me, are you?”

Upon hearing this, Patriarch Lentz gave Harlan Lentz a disdainful look, “Why would I joke about this kind of thing with you? If I haven’t given it, then I haven’t!”

Eleanor Armstrong narrowed her eyes, “But Terrence hasn’t asked us for money over these years either!”

This child hadn’t asked anyone for money, so how had he managed to live these past years?

At this, Patriarch Lentz was also taken aback.

Harlan Lentz looked at Patriarch Lentz, “Dad, you really haven’t been secretly giving him money?”

After speaking, Harlan Lentz continued, “Dad, now it’s just me and Eleanor here, you don’t have to hide anything, you can tell us. It’s alright.”

“I really haven’t!” Patriarch Lentz said helplessly, “If I had, wouldn’t I tell you? Also, as a grandfather, why would I need to sneak around to give money to my own grandson? Do you think there’s something wrong with you?”

Harlan Lentz and Eleanor Armstrong were in the room talking with Patriarch Lentz.

Little did they know, Charlotte Young and Sophie were also walking over with light steps.

Ever since the division of the family, the two sisters-in-law had become increasingly close, even joining the same travel group.

Having learned that Patriarch Lentz was in Delu State, they both immediately came over.

Delu State happened to be a vacation destination too.

Sophie said with a smile, “Grandpa would definitely be delighted if he saw the two of us.”

Since the old man settled abroad, these younger generations hadn’t seen Patriarch Lentz for a long time.

Charlotte Young nodded her head and said, “Hey, do you know why my second uncle often visits Grandpa after the family division?”

Harlan Lentz had one younger brother and one sister.

Three years ago, after Patriarch Lentz’s big illness and recovery, he became disillusioned with everything and divided all his possessions among the younger generations.

This resulted in Bianca Lentz not having visited the old man for a long time.

But the second eldest, Zane Lentz and Lilly White, still often visited Patriarch Lentz.

“Why?” asked Sophie, curious.

Charlotte Young narrowed her eyes, “Do you really not know?”

Sophie shook her head.

Even if she did know, she would not admit it.

Charlotte Young knew Sophie’s thoughts.

The second son, Len Lentz, was as cunning as a ghost; how could they, as a couple, not know anything?

If they truly didn’t know anything, they wouldn’t have come to see Patriarch Lentz with her this time!

The second son and his wife would not engage in a losing business.

Charlotte Young lowered her voice and continued, “The old man still has a private vault he hasn’t divided yet!”

Hearing this, Sophie’s eyes lit up, slightly incredulous she asked, “So it’s true?”

“Did the second eldest mention it to you too?” Charlotte Young asked.

Sophie nodded her head, “He mentioned it, but I didn’t take it to heart.”

At that point, Sophie licked her lips and continued, “Len’s mother always said that the Lentz Clan rose because of that ‘good-for-nothing.’ If Grandpa really had a gold mine, would the Lentz Clan have been so destitute in the past?”

“Do you think the Lentz Clan really rose because of that ‘good-for-nothing’? Just think with your toes and you’ll know that’s impossible!” Charlotte Young continued, “The ancestors of the Lentz Clan held a high rank during Qing Dynasty, and they had plenty of treasures! Otherwise, how do you think the old man lives so carefree now? Even though his estate has been divided, he still manages to settle abroad?”

Charlotte Young never believed that the glory of the Lentz Clan had anything to do with Terrence Lentz.

Although a decade or so ago, Terrence truly had been a genius youth, that was all in the past.

The present condition of the Lentz Clan was thanks to Patriarch Lentz, as well as the hard support of the two brothers, Bartley Lentz and Len Lentz.
