Chapter 1931: 551: The Extremely Mysterious Mister Xianting_3

So, Mrs. Zacks, even if she heard some rumors, chose to turn a blind eye.

Elizabeth Thompson nodded and followed in President Zacks’ footsteps.

"Emma, this is President Colden of Huashan Technology. This is President Wishart of Laibao Group!"

A beautiful young lady accompanied President Colden. She smiled at Elizabeth Thompson, "I’ve heard so much about Miss Emma from President Zacks, and finally today I have the pleasure of meeting you in person!"

After speaking, she extended her hand, "Nice to meet you, Miss Emma. I’m Isla Taylor."

Elizabeth Thompson reached out and shook hands with Isla Taylor.

Isla Taylor then asked, "May I call you Emma?"

Elizabeth Thompson didn’t hold Isla Taylor in high regard.

After all, she was born into the prestigious Thompson Clan.

What was Isla Taylor?

Isla Taylor was a nobody!

What right did she have to call her by her first name?

It was like a tiger being bullied by a dog when down!

Elizabeth Thompson frowned subtly but still smiled and said, "Of course, you can call me whatever you like."

President Zacks turned to Elizabeth Thompson and said, "Emma, why don’t you and Isla go mingle over there? I have some business to discuss with President Colden."

"Okay," nodded Elizabeth Thompson.

After the two left, President Colden looked at President Zacks curiously, "When did you two get involved?"

Elizabeth Thompson was still quite sought-after in these circles.

Her reputation preceded her.

There were even high bids just to have a child with Elizabeth Thompson.

President Zacks said, "About a month ago."

Continuing, he narrowed his eyes, "Don’t be fooled by her innocent looks; she’s already been ruined by CEO Cooper!"

CEO Cooper, Benjamin, was the first one to ’sponsor’ Elizabeth Thompson.

President Colden squinted his eyes, "How about we switch? I’m bored of my current companion, and I was just thinking of trying something new."

Hearing this, President Zacks glanced at President Colden and whispered, "Name the time. We can discuss the contract as well."

The world of adults was richer and more colorful than one might imagine.

Games of multi-partner exchanges among the wealthy were not uncommon.

Even Elizabeth Thompson had experienced it more than once.

President Colden proposed a time.

President Zacks nodded, "Send me the details later, I will definitely be there on time."

"Then it’s settled!"

Isla Astir took Mandel Thompson to meet Teacher Zhang.

"Teacher Zhang, this is my boyfriend, Mandel Thompson."

Mandel Thompson stood in front of Teacher Zhang, "Hello Teacher Zhang, I’m Mandel Thompson. You can just call me Thompson."

Teachers from a small town naturally wouldn’t recognize the name Mandel Thompson.

But Teacher Zhang was different.

Teacher Zhang’s son was a director of a listed company in Capital City, and ever since his son became wealthy, he had brought him over from his hometown. Thus, upon hearing Mandel Thompson’s name, he felt it was somewhat familiar.

As if he had heard it somewhere.

Teacher Zhang scrutinized Mandel Thompson, "Young man, I seem to have heard your name somewhere before."

Mandel Thompson smiled, "Perhaps my name is just common."

Teacher Zhang narrowed his eyes, "The saying goes ’Gifts from the west or treasures from the south’, and the word ’treasures’ implies preciousness. Your parents must also be cultured, which schools did they graduate from?"

Mandel Thompson replied, "My father graduated from Capital University, and my mother from Daphne University."

Both universities were key institutions of "Project 985".

Teacher Zhang nodded, "No wonder."

A moment later, Teacher Zhang asked, "How old are you this year?"

"Thirty-three," answered Mandel Thompson.

"Thirty-three?" Teacher Zhang thought for a moment, "That makes you ten years older than our Isla Astir."

"Yes."

Teacher Zhang then asked, "Where are you from?"

"Capital City."

Hearing this, Teacher Zhang nodded satisfactorily, "A local from Capital City surely has a car and a house, quite impressive. Our Isla Astir was a good girl at school, and you should cherish her. You must not let her down or mistreat her."

"Rest assured, Teacher Zhang, the Thompson Clan does not have a tradition of mistreating girls."

Teacher Zhang looked at Mandel Thompson, his eyes full of satisfaction.

It was evident that he was an educated young man, polite and demonstrating the refined manner of an academic upbringing.

"Forgetting to ask, which school did you graduate from?" Teacher Zhang continued.

"I did my bachelor’s at Capital University, and my master’s and Ph.D. were done abroad, consecutively," answered Mandel Thompson.

Hearing this response, the look of satisfaction in Teacher Zhang’s eyes grew even more apparent. Teachers always like academic powerhouses, especially someone like Mandel Thompson, a university prodigy, "It seems that your entire family are intellectuals!"
