Chapter 1634: 400: Is that Miss Song? _5 Chapter 1634: 400: Is that Miss Song? _5 George Armstrong had looked into the history of wealthy families in Capital City.
He knew that Mandel Thompson was no ordinary rich family’s child.
Isla Astir said, “Mr. Thompson and I just have a professional relationship, nothing more or less.”
Isla Astir had never revealed in public that she had once saved Mrs. Thompson’s life.
Not even half a word.
Hearing this, George Armstrong breathed a sigh of relief.
At that moment, Sabrina Sabir continued, “Isla, the Miss Thompson you just mentioned, does she have a boyfriend?”
If not, it might be a good idea for Isla Astir to play matchmaker and introduce Viola Thompson to George Armstrong.
In Sabrina’s eyes, her son was the best in the world!
Isla Astir smiled and said, “Miss Thompson is already engaged.”
Upon hearing this, Sabrina Sabir was extremely disappointed.
How could she already be engaged?
George Armstrong was also somewhat disappointed.
Heroes have always loved beauty.
He was no exception.
Even though he hadn’t achieved anything yet and was just a poor student.
But he believed that he would definitely achieve great things in the future!
Who hasn’t started out as a poor student?
It’s just that some people were born in Rome, after all.
He just had slightly worse luck.
A moment later, George Armstrong seemed to recall something and looked at Isla Astir, continuing, “I remember Miss Thompson’s fiance doesn’t have a good reputation.”
After Viola Thompson completed the Sight Restorer Plan, a lot of people discussed her fiance.
It was said that her fiance was a well-known good-for-nothing in River City.
Apart from his handsome exterior, he was utterly useless.
Isla Astir shook her head, “I’m not very clear about that.”
George Armstrong narrowed his eyes but said no more.
Since even a good-for-nothing could become Viola Thompson’s fiance.
Then.
Anything was possible.
A moment later, George Armstrong, as if he had thought of something, continued, “What’s your relationship with Miss Thompson like?”
“I’ve only met Miss Thompson a few times,” Isla Astir replied succinctly.
George Armstrong snorted internally.
Seeing Isla Astir’s attitude, he thought she was quite something!
Turns out it was nothing special.
That’s right.
Why would Miss Thompson lower her standards to befriend someone like Isla Astir?
George Armstrong stopped talking, took out his phone, and snapped a photo.
Then he switched to the WhatsApp chat screen and sent the photo, “I’m busy now and can’t gather information. Please ask someone else to help.”
After finishing her Milk Tea, Isla Astir went to the bar to pay, but the server informed her that the bill had already been paid.
Isla Astir was startled, “Sorry, may I know who paid the bill?”
The server informed her, “It was a very beautiful woman.”
Isla Astir immediately asked, “Was she wearing a pink sweater coat?”
“Yes,” the server nodded.
“Thank you.”
After expressing her thanks, Isla Astir walked towards Viola Thompson’s seat.
But by the time she got there, Viola Thompson and her friends had already left.
Isla Astir took out her phone and messaged, “Miss Thompson, thank you. I’ll treat you and your friends to the best Milk Tea in Capital City next time.”
“Sounds good, looking forward to it,” Viola Thompson quickly replied.
Isla Astir felt oddly that everyone from the Thompson Family was easy to talk to.
There was a kind of geniality about them.
Unable to find Viola Thompson, Isla Astir had to return to her seat.
When she returned, only her parents were left at the seat.
Isla asked puzzled, “Where are my uncle and aunt?”
Olivia Armstrong answered, “They said your cousin has to work early tomorrow, so they packed the desserts and went home.”
Although they were her younger brother and sister-in-law,
Olivia somewhat looked down on them.
Because some of their actions were simply too disgraceful.
Like today, for instance.
They said they came to celebrate her birthday, but in reality, they were here to eat and take away.
Their behavior was quite disgraceful!
William Astir detected his wife’s implication and smiled, “Let it go, they are family. It’s just eating and drinking. Our family doesn’t worry about these things.”
Olivia Armstrong sighed lightly, “Even though that’s what’s said, it’s not really the principle of the matter!”
Isla Astir, holding Olivia Armstrong’s hand, said, “It’s only once a year after all, Mom, don’t think too much about it.”
Olivia nodded.
On the other side,
Edward Armstrong’s family of four got into the car.
Beatrice Black looked back at George Armstrong and warned, “You should stay away from Isla in the future.”
George looked up, “What do you mean?”
Beatrice continued, “My silly son, she has taken a liking to you and wants to marry you!”
Hearing this, including Edward Armstrong, everyone’s eyes widened.
None of them expected that Isla Astir would take a liking to George Armstrong.
Edward Armstrong swallowed and then said, “Did you get it wrong, Beatrice? Why would Isla like our George!”
“Why not?” Beatrice Black glared at Edward Armstrong, “Our George is extremely talented, not just any Isla Astir, but even a daughter of a wealthy family would have to woo him!”
Hearing this, George unconsciously lifted his chin.
His sense of superiority was almost undeniable.
Under his wife’s domineering influence, Edward Armstrong didn’t dare say much else.
Beatrice continued, “Your sister was too embarrassed to say it herself, so she had XueXue tell me.”
Edward immediately asked, “What did XueXue tell you?”
Beatrice looked triumphant and retorted, “What else could she say? Of course, she talked about the matter between George and Isla Astir. She said Isla is a good girl, and our two families know each other well.”
Upon hearing this, Edward Armstrong nodded repeatedly, “That’s also true, Isla is a child we watched grow up. She’s beautiful, sensible, filial, and even earns money. If she really ends up with George, it’s actually George’s good fortune.”
Hearing this, Beatrice slapped Edward Armstrong, “You don’t understand a damn thing! What do you mean it’s George’s good fortune to marry her? Our George is going to marry a wealthy heiress from Capital City! What is Isla Astir?”
With that, Beatrice Black turned back to look at George Armstrong and continued, “Son, don’t listen to your dad’s nonsense, Isla Astir is not worthy of you!”
