Chapter 1061: 291: It's exhilarating to abuse the dregs for a moment, but amputation is needed!_1
If Rachel Barton is so happy to possess the identity of Helena.
Then.
Let her thoroughly become Helena.
A moment later, Viola Thompson stood up from her computer desk, looking out the window.
The neon lights outside were bright.
They illuminated the shimmering snow all over the sky, making it especially beautiful, a beautiful snowscape, yet also dangerous.
The image of Mrs. Thompson lying in the snow popped up in her mind once again.
At that time.
The old woman must have been both saddened and helpless.
With this in mind, Viola Thompson took a deep breath, hiding all her emotions deep within her heart.
Just then, a doorbell rang in the air.
Viola Thompson looked back slightly, closed the page on the computer, and in the blink of an eye, she returned to her usual indifferent demeanor.
As if nothing had happened.
" Who is it?" Viola Thompson passed over to open the door.
Soon, the door opened.
It was Mary Perryne carrying bird's nest soup.
"Mom."
Mary Perryne said with a smile: "Viola, I knew you hadn't gone to bed yet."
During the period after Mrs. Thompson's death, Mary Perryne was always sad. After all, her relationship with Mrs. Thompson was like mother and daughter. Coupled with many guests of the Thompson Clan, she had somewhat overlooked Viola Thompson's feelings. After she emerged from sorrow, she realized that Viola Thompson must be even more sad than herself, so she came to comfort Viola Thompson.
Upon careful observation, Viola Thompson seemed to have lost a lot more weight.
This child.
Mary Perryne sighed softly in her heart, but her face still maintained a smile.
"I was just about to go to sleep," said Viola Thompson.
Mary Perryne handed the bird's nest soup to Viola Thompson, "Viola, I had the kitchen make some bird's nest soup, you have some."
"Hmm." Viola Thompson accepted the bird's nest soup and obediently drank it all.
Seeing this, Mary Perryne breathed a sigh of relief, "How does it taste? Do you want to have another bowl?"
"It tastes good, but I can't drink another bowl." Viola Thompson smiled at Mary Perryne, "Mom, I know you are worried about me. Don't worry, I am alright."
"As long as you're alright," Mary Perryne pondered her words, "Everyone has their day of birth, aging, illness, and death. Your grandmother was ninety-three, and Rachel Barton has received the punishment she deserved. You must not dwell on this. Your grandmother's greatest wish is to see you happy."
Having been busy, Mary Perryne still did not know the news of Rachel Barton's release.
"Hmm." Viola Thompson nodded slightly.
Mary Perryne continued, "Why don't we have another bowl of bird's nest soup? I heard that it contains a lot of collagen, and it can nourish the yin and activate the blood. It's especially good for girls."
Upon hearing this, Viola Thompson seriously revealed to Mary Perryne, "Mom, actually, bird's nest itself does not have much nutritional value. These are but sales gimmicks. Bird's nest contains about 50% protein, 20% carbohydrates, 5% iron, 3% other minerals, and very little vitamins. From the data, there is no difference in nutritional content between bird's nest and eggs, only the content of individual nutrients varies. The price difference between the two is staggering, so if you want to supplement your nutrition with bird's nest in the future, just eat a few more eggs."
Mary Perryne was completely stunned.
Bird's nest = eggs?
That was the first she had ever heard such a statement.
If it were said by anyone else, Mary Perryne would definitely retort.
But who said these words?
It was Viola Thompson!
The words of Viola Thompson, she would remember them in her heart. Even if Viola Thompson pointed at a rabbit and said it was a horse, Mary Perryne would agree that it was indeed a horse as Viola Thompson was always right.
A moment later, Mary Perryne nodded, "Then I'll tell the purchasing department to buy less bird's nest in the future."

As a matter of fact, the Thompson Clan rarely bought bird's nest, most of the bird's nest they ate were gifts from others.
"Hmm."
After finishing the bird's nest soup, Mary Perryne collected the bowl, "Viola, you should go to sleep early. I'm going to bed."
"Okay," Viola Thompson nodded slightly, seeing Mary Perryne to the door, "Mom, you should also go to sleep early too. Good night."
"Good night."
Once she reached the floor below, Mary Perryne handed the bowl to the maid.
Upon seeing Mary Perryne descend the stairs, Sawyer Thompson came over immediately, "How is it? Is Viola's mood okay?"
"It's alright, not too bad." No sooner had she finished speaking, Mary Perryne glanced upstairs, "Did you notice, this child has lost a lot of weight recently."
Sawyer Thompson sighed, "Yes."
The love of a father is silent.
He had noticed early on that Viola Thompson had lost a lot of weight compared to before, he just never voiced it.
Soon.
A week had passed in the blink of an eye.
Isla Astir and Mrs. Astir came to the hospital to pick up Mr. Astir.
Sabrina Sabir and her husband Edward Armstrong also came.
Edward Armstrong is a worker at a state-owned factory in Capital City. Such a job may not be impressive now, but in the 90's, it was definitely a desirable job, after all, it was a guaranteed job for life.
