004: Make the best use of everything.

Watching this scene.

Olga was stunned.

Elizabeth Thompson was also a bit surprised.

Viola Thompson could actually use a knife and fork.

And it was done without a single flaw, pleasing to the eyes.

This...

Something didn't seem right.

Elizabeth looked at Viola, her beautiful eyes narrowing slightly.

It seemed that Viola had done a lot of covert things in order to successfully return to the Thompson Clan.

She had even learned how to use a knife and fork.

But a clown could only ever be a clown.

A crude imitation.

Did Viola truly believe that by learning how to use a knife and fork, she could replace her as the young lady of the clan?

In her eyes, Viola would always be the clown who could never make it to the big stage.

Elizabeth curled the corner of her lips, her beautiful eyes filled with unconcealed mockery.

Half an hour later, Viola put down her knife and fork, "I'm done eating, you guys take your time."

With that, she took out a tissue to wipe her mouth and then got up to leave.

She didn't lack any etiquette, and no one could find any fault with her.

Where was the timid Viola of the past who even dared not speak loudly?

"Dad, don't you have a dinner with CEO Cooper tomorrow?" Elizabeth suddenly spoke, watching Viola's departing figure.

"Yeah." Reg Thompson replied, "Tomorrow night at eight."

Elizabeth narrowed her eyes, "Doesn't CEO Cooper like beautiful female students the most?"

Reg Thompson looked back at Elizabeth, "Elizabeth, are you suggesting..." The rest of the sentence was left unsaid, the meaning clear.

"Yes." Elizabeth nodded her head.

She couldn't guarantee anything else, but Viola did have the looks.

"Isn't that a bit inappropriate?" Reg Thompson hesitated.

After all, Viola was now Terrence Lentz's fiancée.

If the Lentz Clan pursued the matter, it would not end well.

"Make the best use of everything," Elizabeth's eyes were full of scheming, "There's nothing wrong with that."

As she finished speaking, Elizabeth continued, "As for the Lentz Clan, you don't have to worry about them. As long as we don't say anything, they won't know. Besides, how many girls nowadays keep themselves clean before marriage? Moreover, the third son of the Lentz Clan is not a good character himself! Is it only allowed for men to play with women outside but not allowed for women to have boyfriends?"

"As for CEO Cooper, you don't have to worry at all. He wouldn't be foolish enough to spread this kind of thing around."

In fact, Elizabeth's goal was simple.

To destroy Viola.

She couldn't stand Viola's arrogance, and even more so, she couldn't stand Viola's beautiful face.

She hadn't thought Viola had anything worth being jealous of before, but now, she was actually a bit jealous of Viola's face.

With Viola now able to help the Thompson Clan secure contracts and replace her in fulfilling the marriage contract, it could be considered killing two birds with one stone and making the best use of everything.

Elizabeth's words made sense, and Reg Thompson nodded, "Alright."

After dinner, Viola returned to her room, took a bath, and then fell asleep.

Although she had been reborn.

Her body and the original Viola's had not completely fused, and her five senses had not yet returned to their previous sensitivity.

She still needed time to recover.

.....

Cloud City's most famous nightclub.

It was brightly lit, with women wearing revealing uniforms everywhere.

Inside a VIP room.

Reg Thompson laughed as he lit a cigar for CEO Cooper, "CEO Cooper, tonight will be to your satisfaction."

CEO Cooper took a puff of his cigar, "Really?"

"Of course." Reg Thompson nodded.

CEO Cooper nodded satisfied, "Since President Thompson has said so, I'll wait and see."

Reg Thompson squinted, his eyes full of calculating expressions, and continued, "CEO Cooper, I have some other matters to attend to, and the person will be here shortly."

"You go ahead." CEO Cooper waved his hand, "Old Reg, if you can satisfy me tonight, we can talk about the contract."

Not long after Reg Thompson left, the person in charge of the nightclub led a young girl into the room.

The girl seemed to have been drugged, as she was drowsy and half-awake.

Even the dim light in the room couldn't hide her stunning beauty.The man who was sitting in the corner with an air of calmness suddenly furrowed his brows at the sight, locking his deep, phoenix eyes onto the girl's face.

The girl's face blended together with a fleeting glimpse he had in the deep mountains.

It's her.

"CEO Cooper." The person in charge helped the girl sit down next to CEO Cooper, "This is the gift President Thompson has prepared for you."

Seeing the girl, CEO Cooper's eyes widened in shock.

With such a beauty before him, CEO Cooper couldn't restrain himself and immediately reached out to touch the girl's face.

At this moment, the girl, who was half-asleep, suddenly opened her eyes and grabbed CEO Cooper's hand, lightly twisting it.

Crack--

"Ah!"

A pig-like scream echoed through the dimly lit private room.

"You dare to take advantage of me?"

A very cold voice.

Viola Thompson hadn't expected the Thompson Family to take action while she was unconscious, such a despicable group of people, just how foolish was the original Viola to forgive them repeatedly?

Seeing this, the man in the corner loosened his already clenched fist, tapping his index finger on the real leather cushion seat, the corners of his mouth curved up in an almost imperceptible arc.

Adam Swantz, who was sitting close by, exclaimed in surprise, "Holy shit! This girl is awesome! I thought she was a cat, but she's a tiger!"

Who could have ever thought that a weak girl would possess such skills?

Bang!

At this moment, the door slammed shut, and suddenly, a dozen bodyguards appeared in the private room.

Viola released CEO Cooper and turned her eyes slightly, looking at the ten people with extreme calmness, "Are you all coming at once, or one at a time?"

Her demeanor, wild and fierce.

Released from Viola's grasp, CEO Cooper rolled on the floor in pain, wailing, "Quick! Kill her for me!"

Adam Swantz looked at Terrence Lentz, "Third brother, should we...?"

"She doesn't need your help." Terrence cut Adam off with his phoenix eyes half-closed.

"Really?" Adam Swantz was a bit skeptical.

He believed that Viola had some skills, otherwise, she couldn't have beaten up CEO Cooper like that, but one can't fight against multiple foes with just one pair of fists.

Moreover, there were ten big men standing before Viola at this moment.

And they were all professionally trained bodyguards.

At this moment, the ten bodyguards suddenly charged towards Viola.

In the dim light, no one could see how Viola made her move.

Just audible were the bangs, and all ten men fell to the ground.

At the same time, a snap.

The remaining lights went out.

"Ah!"

Another bloodcurdling scream from CEO Cooper.

When the lights came back on, apart from the battered bodyguards lying on the ground, there was also the wailing CEO Cooper.

As for Viola...

She had already disappeared without a trace.

"Holy shit! Third..." Adam Swantz wanted to say something but, turning his head, Terrence Lentz had already vanished from his side, "Where's he gone?"

Not finding Terrence, Adam Swantz immediately put on his cap, bent down low, and walked toward the exit incognito.

Just as he got outside, someone suddenly patted Adam's shoulder.

Adam Swantz turned slightly, and saw a stunning face.

There's no denying it.

Terrence Lentz had a face dazzling enough to captivate thousands of young girls, but...

When God opens a window for you, he will also close a door.

"Third brother, where did you just go?"

"Nowhere." Terrence Lentz answered concisely.

"Then how come you were not there when I turned my head?" Adam Swantz asked.

Terrence Lentz pursed his thin lips, and it seemed like he had no intention of answering Adam's question.

Terrence Lentz had always been strange and mysterious, and Adam Swantz didn't press further, continuing, "The private room is a mess now, should we head back?"

"Mhm."

An hour later.

Adam Swantz held his phone while looking at Terrence Lentz, who was sitting in front of a video game console, "Hahaha, Third brother, I can't contain my laughter, do you know what happened to Fatso Cooper?"

Terrence Lentz controlled the character in the game without lifting his head, and his voice was a bit low, "Tell me."
