Substitute Marriage: Reborn As The Top Big-Shot

Chapter 851: 257: True strength, the eyes are full of terror! _5
 

Before Mrs. Fitzell’s words had even settled, Mr. Fitzell began, “Brian, your mother is right. Since Boss Thompson helped you during your most difficult times, you can’t let him down now. If you dare betray him, your mother and I won’t be able to hold our heads high when we go out! Don’t worry about the money. We can sell the house, and the car you bought for me. We can sell that too. We’re country folk. We’re not used to driving that sort of car.”

“Brian, I’m your sister-in-law. You can trust me. Just like your parents, I support you! Don’t worry, and don’t feel burdened. If it comes to it, we can sell the car and the house!”

On the other end of the phone, Brian Fitzell’s eyes had already reddened.

He’d thought his parents and siblings in-law were calling to thwart his plans.

After all, people are invariably pragmatic.

But he hadn’t expected this…

It was really him who didn’t understand his parents and siblings in-law enough.

He was the one who was small-minded.

“Mum, Dad, Brother, sister-in-law, thank you,” Brian Fitzgerald’s voice choked out.

“Silly child,”, hearing her son’s voice off, Mrs. Fitzell’s eyes turned red as well, “Brian, don’t be sad. As for Lele, just let the break up be! A girl like that who only wishes to enjoy the good life with you, but kicks you away as soon as times get tough! It’s good that we don’t keep such a girl around. If it doesn’t happen now, it would happen eventually anyway. Once we get through this crisis, your mum will introduce you to someone better!”

“Ok, Mum.”

Mrs. Fitzell continued, “Alright Brian, I suppose you’re very busy recently? Your mum doesn’t want to waste your time, you go on and keep busy!”

“Goodbye, Mum,” Brian Fitzell responded, “You and Dad don’t need to worry. I believe Boss Thompson will be able to resolve this crisis.”

“Of course!” Mrs. Fitzell, about to hang up, remembered to tell him, “If you’re having cash flow problems, you must tell me.”

“Got it.”

After hanging up the phone, Brian Fitzell took a deep breath and then started dealing with paperwork.

He needed to calm down and work diligently.

For his own sake, and also for his family’s.

Meanwhile.

The news that the Thompson clan was collapsing was trending on Facebook.

“Holy cow! Is it real? Isn’t the Thompson clan the richest family in Capital City? Could they go broke that easily?”

“I’m an employee of the Thompson Group. It looks orderly inside the group, but it’s actually in total chaos.”

“Heard that Viola Thompson took charge of all of the Thompson Group’s operations. Wonder if it’s true.”

“It’s true! I was shocked to see this news.”

“Does Viola Thompson know finance or business strategies?”

“Apparently, she not only thinks that she does know, but she also thinks that she’s great. She even boasted about how she will make Avery Pakes and all those shareholders who have withdrawn their investment ruin within three days. I don’t know what she’s thinking—whether she’s lost her mind since she got admitted to Capital University.”

“That’s it. Young Miss Thompson is about to have a downfall.”

“I believe in her!”

“I also believe in her!”

“She never lets her people down.”

“Even at this point in time, there are still so many brainless fans? Believe in Viola Thompson? Hilarious. ‘Like idol, like fan,’ they say. Could you please do your research on the Garcia Family? Viola Thompson is indeed powerful, but do you know Nako Garcia? She can effortlessly enter Capital University without taking any initial tests! Also, she will also become the prince’s wife in Country Polluton in the future. I believe Viola Thompson is overreaching this time.”

“I have internal news. The person who truly offended Nako Garcia is not Sawyer Thompson, it’s Viola Thompson.”

“…”

Within a moment, Facebook was filled with discussions regarding Viola’s potential downfall.

When she saw the Facebook hot search results Rachel Barton raised her eyebrows slightly.

Is the Thompson Clan really going bankrupt?

Rachel Barton frowned slightly.

How could this happen?

Subconsciously, Rachel Barton felt as though the distance between Viola Thompson and herself had considerably closed.

In the past, she was the noble Young Miss Thompson.

If the Thompson Clan collapses, then Viola Thompson will lose this noble identity.

Then within the group of five, she won’t be the only one from an average background.

Thinking of this, Rachel Barton lets out a breath.

Just at this moment, there was a knock at the door.

Rachel Barton lifted her head, “Come in.”

Shortly after, the door opened. The one who entered the room was none other than Delia Frieman…
