Chapter 1827: 440: Suwen is a great beauty
Terrence Lentz really wasn’t joking.
If Suwen really had the ability, she would certainly be able to avoid the bomb.
If Suwen had no such ability, then she would get what she deserved.
Indeed, there is little use for a doctor who stands by and watches a patient die.
Gabrie swallowed hard, "Third Master, then, should I arrange for the bomber now?"
Gabrie was a man of great gentlemanly demeanor.
He usually didn’t dare raise his voice when speaking to a girl, for fear of frightening her.
Now, to hold a bomb against a defenseless girl, he truly couldn’t do it!
Terrence Lentz slightly raised his head, "Do you want me to repeat it a third time?"
His voice was not loud.
Yet, it was filled with an oppressive force.
Although Gabrie was reluctant, he didn’t dare to disobey the Third Master’s command and could only nod, "I’ll handle it right away!"
"Go," Terrence Lentz said in a light tone.
Gabrie turned and left.
As he walked away, he muttered in his heart that it was none of his business.
Suwen had better not trouble him.

The Summer family’s banquet continued.
Mary Perryne carried her glass as she caught up with Mrs. Summer.
"Is Jean not leaving the country this time?" Mary looked toward Mrs. Summer.
Mrs. Summer nodded, "Yes, she’s not leaving. Old Summer and I only have this daughter, and as we’re getting older, it’s important to have a child to uphold the family’s presence."
Speaking of which, Mrs. Summer looked at Mary with an envious expression, "I really envy you. Having so many children, the festivals must be very lively at your place."
It wasn’t just during the festivals, their place was always very lively.
Hearing this, Mary smiled and said, "What did I tell you back then? Have one more, for Jean to have a companion. You didn’t want to! Regretting it now, aren’t you?"
Mrs. Summer exclaimed, "Exactly!"
Now that she was older, regret was pointless.
Mary continued, "Don’t feel regretful, having many children has its benefits, and having few also has its perks. For the two of you who enjoy quiet, having just one child like Jean is nice."
Mrs. Summer nodded, "That’s also true. It’s strange, isn’t it? When we were young, we liked quiet, but now that we are old, we actually prefer a bit of noise!"
If time could flow backward, Mrs. Summer would certainly choose to have a second or third child along with Mary.
It seemed Mary remembered something, smiled and said, "Right, what’s the situation with your Jean now? Does she have a boyfriend?"
Mrs. Summer shook her head, "Old Summer and I were just talking about this last night! She is thirty-two and there’s not a peep of interest!"
As parents, they all wanted to retire earlier to enjoy their later years with grandchildren.
"Let the child’s issues be; worrying is useless! My three are just the same, no action!" Mary consoled.
"How old is your Brandon now?" Mrs. Summer asked.
Mary thought for a moment, "He’s the same age as Jean."
Mandel Thompson had just turned thirty-two this year.
Mrs. Summer jokingly said, "How about we set them up? After all, you have several sons; just marry one into our family!"
Jean was, after all, a girl, and she held many years of friendship with the Summer couple. At such a time, Mary naturally couldn’t disrespect Mrs. Summer’s face.
Even if Mary didn’t particularly like Jean, she still had to smile and say, "If the two children really can come together, then it would be Brandon who’s reaching high."
She said this as Jean just happened to pass by.
Jean’s mouth curled into a slight smile.
It seemed, not only did Mandel Thompson like her quite a bit, but even Mary had accepted her as a daughter-in-law.
Being with Mandel Thompson indeed meant he was reaching high.
Hearing this, Mrs. Summer smiled and said, "Oh no, Mary, you shouldn’t say that, talking about reaching high. Your Brandon is so outstanding, it’s our Jean who would be the one reaching high if anyone is."
Mary followed up with, "Our words don’t matter, it’s the 21st Century now, arranged marriages aren’t the trend. It has to be the two children liking each other that counts."
If Mandel Thompson truly liked Jean and couldn’t help himself, even if Mary didn’t like Jean, she would have no choice but to agree.
Because she had walked that path herself.
When she was with Sawyer Thompson, everyone doubted it.
However, Mary knew her son.
Mandel Thompson probably wasn’t the type to like someone like Jean.
Mrs. Summer nodded in agreement, "Not just now, even during our time arranged marriages were not the trend."
