Substitute Marriage: Reborn As The Top Big-Shot

Chapter 473: 168: Beijing State University invitation, what a fairy-like sister! _4

“Okay.”

Rachel nodded.

The air conditioning was on in the Milk Tea Shop, making it very comfortable.

If it weren’t for the fact that Rachel was sitting across from someone she didn’t like, her mood might be better.

Zachary Mayhew kept trying to find topics to talk about.

Rachel tried her best to answer with a smile, not showing any disgusted expressions to Zachary.

At this moment, Rachel received a group video chat.

Under normal circumstances, Rachel couldn’t answer it because the signal at home was bad.

But the signal in town was pretty good, so Rachel took out her earphones, looked up at Zachary, and said, “Sorry, Zach, I need to answer this video call.”

“It’s fine, go ahead,” Zachary said while glancing at Rachel’s phone screen.

It seemed to be a group chat.

Although Rachel was unhappy, she didn’t say anything, plugged in her earphones, and connected to the video chat.

Diana Hershey and Fiona Knight had already started talking.

“Rachel’s here!”

“Rachel seems to have gotten a lot darker lately.” Diana continued, “What have you been up to lately?”

Rachel replied with a smile, “I haven’t been doing much. The UV rays are just stronger here in my hometown, so I got this tan from being out in the sun.”

Fiona asked, “How are your parents treating you? Are you used to living in your hometown?”

“It’s good.”

At this time, Viola Thompson also joined the group video chat.

“Vio!”

“Oh, Rachel’s here too.” Viola seemed surprised to see Rachel.

“Viola.”

Rachel greeted her with a smile.

Viola asked about Rachel’s recent situation.

Rachel responded with a smile that everything was okay.

Viola then asked, “Rachel, are you really not planning to come back during the holidays?”

“Yeah,” Rachel nodded, “Actually, it’s pretty nice in my hometown. The air is fresh, and the vegetables are organic. I feel like I’ve gained quite a bit of weight lately.”

Upon hearing this, Diana sighed, “Seriously, stop it. I’ve been eating and sleeping all this time, and I’m almost 110 pounds.”

With her 160 cm height and weight-gain prone body type, she looked even more overweight than a 125-pound person.

Fiona also said that she had gained several pounds.

Then she asked, “How about you, Vio?”

Viola said, “I seem to be a little heavier than before.”

“Beautiful Thompson, how much do you weigh now?” Diana immediately asked.

“I think it’s 98 pounds,” Viola took a sip of her milk tea, “but that was weighed last week.”

“98?” Diana’s eyes widened, “You call 98 heavy? How much were you before?”

At 173 cm tall, Viola’s 98 pounds was not considered fat.

It was a standard body shape.

Her waist was slim, and her bra size was D.

In summary, she was slim where she should be, and voluptuous where it mattered.

In class 6, there was a saying.

Beautiful Thompson’s waist, a killer knife.

Viola said, “I was 96 before, so I gained two pounds.”

However, she didn’t have high demands for her weight, as long as she didn’t get too fat.

Diana and Fiona both expressed envy.

Rachel was also extremely envious.

Viola looked at Rachel and continued, “Rachel, you should be more careful when dealing with your parents. Given the distance, don’t let them know your bank account balance. If something happens, remember to notify us in time and always protect yourself. Be cautious in everything you do. Although you have blood ties, you haven’t seen each other for so many years, and people’s hearts are hidden behind their bellies. No one knows what they are thinking or what their purpose is in recognizing you.”

Hearing this, Rachel’s eyes dimmed for an instant.

She knew that Viola said this for her own good.

But Rachel couldn’t stand anyone insulting her parents.

In her eyes, her parents were the best in the world, and they had given her all the best things.

As their daughter, her most important task was to learn gratitude, not suspicion and doubt.

With this in mind, Rachel stood up from her seat and went outside, “Viola, thank you for the reminder. However, I think all these concerns are unnecessary. My parents are really great, they love me very much, and I won’t disappoint them.”

Continuing, Rachel said, “My parents had a simple reason for recognizing me. They just want to make up for their past mistakes, as they didn’t intentionally lose me back then. Viola, I want to ask you, when you’re at your home, would you be wary of Uncle Thompson and Aunt Thompson?”

She threw this question at Viola.

Viola said, “Rachel, our situations are different. Your parents are suspected of favoring boys over girls, and their intentions are too strong…”
