Chapter 1611: 295: Extremely proud!_3 Chapter 1611: 295: Extremely proud!_3 She didn’t know what she was thinking when she actually suggested that Isla Astir play matchmaker for Mandel Thompson?

It was utterly fantastical!

How was this behavior any different from throwing oneself at someone?

Just because Mandel Thompson was wealthy, should she throw herself at him?

As she finished speaking, Mrs. Astir added, “I really don’t know how your aunt has been raising her all these years!”

Isla Astir remained silent.

It wasn’t her place to comment on matters between the elders.

Mrs. Astir looked at Isla Astir and continued, “Why doesn’t Eva seem anything like Liam?”

Logically, siblings shouldn’t differ that much.

Liam Webster was down-to-earth and sensible.

And Eva Webster?

Not only did she lack capability, but she also aimed too high.

Isla Astir responded with a smile, “Each person is different after all.”

Mrs. Astir then instructed, “You must stand firm on this issue, don’t get involved without thinking!”

Hearing this, Isla Astir nodded, “Mom, I understand.”

“Your aunt and your uncle will be on the day after tomorrow’s flight, and Eva will definitely return with them. Just put up with her for a few more days.”

“Alright.”

Mrs. Astir patted Isla Astir’s hand.

Sometimes she thought that in her past life she must have saved the Milky Way to be blessed with such a sensible and capable daughter in this life.

On the other side.

In the car.

Viola Thompson looked at Mandel Thompson and spoke indifferently, “Big brother, you seem a bit different towards Wennie.”

Upon hearing this, Mandel Thompson’s face didn’t show any particular change as he asked, “You noticed that too?”

Viola Thompson laughed lightly.

Not only had she noticed, but Mary Perryne had too.

After all, the Mandel Thompson of the past never got this close to any girl.

Isla Astir was the only one.

A moment later, Viola Thompson continued to probe, “Big brother, are you pursuing Wennie?”

Mandel Thompson shook his head in denial.

Viola Thompson pressed, “Then why are you so nice to her?”

The traffic light ahead was red.

Mandel Thompson gently applied the brakes before speaking calmly, “Do you remember when grandma was unconscious in the snow and a kind person took her to the hospital?”

Viola Thompson surely wouldn’t forget.

It took her a long time to pull Mrs. Thompson back from the brink of death, and when she asked to meet the person who saved her grandmother’s life, Mandel Thompson said he had already arranged it.

With the end of the year approaching and Mrs. Thompson’s subsequent sudden passing, Viola had forgotten all about it.

Could it be…

Was Isla Astir that kind person?

At that moment, Mandel Thompson added, “Yes, that kind person was Isla Astir.”

Viola Thompson was incredibly surprised.

She would have never imagined that the person who saved Mrs. Thompson was Isla Astir.

“Big brother, why didn’t you tell me earlier?” Viola Thompson asked.

Mandel Thompson looked back at Viola Thompson with a smile, “Don’t worry, I’ve already thanked her and said what needed to be said. If we keep bringing it up, it will only make her uncomfortable.”

As he said this, Mandel Thompson paused for a moment and instructed, “When you see her again, act as if you don’t know about it.”

He didn’t want certain things to seem like an obligation to Isla Astir in her eyes.

Viola Thompson nodded slightly, “Okay.”

As the conversation ended, Viola Thompson looked at Mandel Thompson and asked with a smile, “Big brother, do you have a bit of a crush on Wennie?”

She could see that Mandel Thompson’s feelings for Isla Astir were not just about gratitude.

Mandel Thompson asked seriously, “Viola, what does it feel like to like someone?”

Because he had never experienced it, he was unsure whether that was what liking someone felt like.

Viola Thompson explained tenderly, “Liking someone means thinking about her all the time when you can’t see her, wishing you could see her right away. You blush when you see her, feel embarrassed, your heartbeat speeds up, but you still can’t help wanting to steal a few more glances at her.”

“Sometimes in the quiet of the night, you might even find yourself wondering what you would name the children you’d have with her.”

“Right, you’ll even dream about her.”

After finishing her explanation, Viola Thompson turned the question back to Mandel Thompson, “Big brother, do you feel this way about Wennie?”

Mandel Thompson was deep in thought.

A moment passed before he shook his head, “I don’t know.”

Viola Thompson simply smiled, not saying a word.

Love was always clearer to onlookers than to those involved.

…

Miss Seaton was very excited to learn that Viola Thompson had returned to Capital City.

She had been waiting for this day for far too long.

At that moment, there was a knock at the door.

“Miss Seaton.”
