Chapter 857: 257: Abusing Scum, What is Viola Thompson’s Identity?! _4

Yet she had experienced a darkness that many people would never know.

She didn’t even have the courage to confess her feelings to the person she likes.

She is currently wrestling with conflicting emotions.

Happy for Viola Thompson yet at the same time feeling slightly disappointed.

Glad that Viola doesn’t have to suffer through her family’s downfall.

However, when she thinks about how she will still be the one with the worst family conditions within their group of five, she feels a bit dejected.

...

It’s a strange feeling.

At this point, there is another knock at the door.

Rachel Barton now knows what to expect.

She knows for a fact that it’s Delia Frieman who’s knocking.

She walks over to the door, sure enough, it’s Delia Frieman, “Delia, I was just about to leave to refill my water, did you need something?”

Delia Frieman smiled and asked, “Rachel, have you seen the news?”

“I have.” Rachel nodded, stepping outside and closing the door behind her.

Delia Frieman wasn’t privy to Rachel’s thoughts and didn’t bat an eyelid at her closing the door, continuing with, “Thompson Group has successfully overcome its crisis and is even collaborating directly with the royal merchants of Country Polluton! Rachel, you were right, Viola is very capable, we have no need to worry about her.”

It wasn’t surprising, considering that Rachel and Viola had grown up together.

Delia Frieman continued, “Viola is truly incredible, people are even talking about her having some sort of hidden identity!”

“A hidden identity?” Rachel slightly frowned, “That’s probably pushing it.”

She grew up with Viola, and while Viola was a bit quirky in their childhood, it’s preposterous to think that she possesses a hidden identity in Country Polluton.

Rachel went on to say, “But indeed, Viola is incredibly talented, she often solved the problems that I couldn’t handle when we were young.”

Delia Frieman nodded, “Rachel, didn’t you say you wanted a drink? I bought a bottle of red wine today. I’ve heard drinking a glass before bed is good for the skin and even helps with sleep – how about I give it to you ”

Rachel initially didn’t want the wine as she had no interest in alcohol, but after hearing about its supposed skin benefits, she was immediately swayed.

Anyone who wanted to impress their crush would find themselves far from perfect, and Rachel was no different. She had been trying to reinvent herself quietly.

Using high-end skincare products, refraining from snacking.

“Thank you, Delia, I guess I shouldn’t refuse.” Rachel accepted the offering.

Delia certainly would’ve hesitated to give away the wine to someone else.

But this was Rachel.

Her dear younger sister.

Delia smiled and said, “Why do you keep thanking me? Get some sleep, you must have school tomorrow, right?”

“I don’t have class tomorrow, but I do the day after,” Rachel replied.

Delia lightly pushed Rachel towards her room, “Even so, sleep early; it’s good for your skin.”

Feeling Delia’s hand on her clothes and skin made Rachel nauseous. She just wanted to return to her room immediately, “Goodnight, Delia.”

“Good night.”

Watching her sister’s retreating figure, Delia was filled with a sense of accomplishment.

She loved the feeling of being needed by her sister.

When Rachel got back to her room, she immediately changed into her pajamas and took another shower.

She didn’t want to feel this way.

After all, that was her sister Delia.

But she just couldn’t help it.

Every time she thought about Delia pushing her earlier, she felt nauseous.

It was a terrible feeling.

She hoped Delia would come to her senses soon and return to her normal life.

On the other side.

Pakes Corporation.

Currently, Pakes Corporation is not faring well.

Shareholders are clamoring to divest, production-line stoppages, unable to contact Nako Garcia, the whole corporation is close to paralysis.

“Mr. Pakes, President Colden canceled tomorrow’s meeting.”

“Mr. Pakes, there is an issue with the project in the west. Swantz Group suddenly reneged on the land deal they had with us.”

“Mr. Pakes, all the shareholders outside are demanding to pull their investments.”

“Mr. Pakes… ”

Avery Pakes was able to muster only enough strength to remain seated behind his desk, listening to the Secretary’s reports. His face was pale.

He found it hard to believe the reality of their situation, even now.

After all, he was associated with the Garcia family.

He was on his way to becoming the top family of the Hua-Xia region.

Alas, he never imagined that Sawyer Thompson could directly work with the royal merchants of Country Polluton.

Although Sawyer Thompson was the one collaborating with the royal merchant, Avery knew that all of this was because of Viola Thompson.

Who on earth is Viola Thompson?

Despite her young age of just seventeen or eighteen, why does she have such powerful connections?

Remembering the look in Viola’s eyes when she was speaking to him, Avery broke out in cold sweat, one layer after another.
