Chapter 40: 040: Believe in Miss Thompson

Translator: 549690339

It must be said that Mrs. Wilson was now filled with curiosity about Viola Thompson.

Originally, she thought Viola was bragging.

How could a bowl of soup solve a problem that even Western medicine couldn’t solve?

But now…

The situation was completely beyond her expectations.

“Miss Thompson’s full name is Viola Thompson,” Angus Wilson continued, “I’m not quite sure about her exact age, but she looks like she’s no more than eighteen.”

That’s why when Angus first met Viola in the pharmacy, he didn’t trust her. How could a child who looked seventeen or eighteen have any medical skills?

“So, she’s not even an adult yet?” Mrs. Wilson asked.

Angus nodded.

Mrs. Wilson sighed, “She’s already so amazing before reaching adulthood! Her parents must be extremely proud.”

“Absolutely,” Angus raised his head, as if Viola were his daughter, “If I had a daughter like that, I would wake up laughing from my dreams.” Let alone Viola’s parents.

Mrs. Wilson’s eyes twinkled, and she continued, “Although she can’t be our daughter, she could become our daughter-in-law! What does the girl look like?”

“She’s beautiful! Our Taotao shouldn’t even think about getting that swan.”

“You’re comparing our Taotao to a toad! Do you even know how to be a father?” Mrs. Wilson said a little discontentedly.

She was also extremely curious.

What did the girl look like to make Angus say such a thing?

“I like to be realistic,” Angus said.

Mrs. Wilson narrowed her eyes, “Compared with Edith, who is more beautiful?”

“Of course, it’s Miss Thompson.”

Before Edith Bennett’s disfigurement, she was a very beautiful girl. It was not far-fetched to say she was among the top beauties in River City, definitely in the top ten.

With this statement, Mrs. Wilson became even more curious. Angus knew his wife well, and continued, “If you don’t believe me, you can accompany me to see her when Edith’s bandages are removed.”

“Sure, sure,” Mrs. Wilson nodded repeatedly, “I was actually planning to visit Edith.”

Class Six of Senior Year Three.

Viola Thompson was chatting with Fiona Knight when a boy with a slightly flushed face approached them and said, “Viola.”

Viola looked up slightly to see the class president of Class Six, Zhang Yang.

She smiled slightly, “What’s up?”

Her exquisite face was like jade, and when she smiled her cheeks dimpled shallowly, as if they could draw people in. The boy’s face turned even redder, and his voice stammered, “The, the teacher asked you to go to her office.”

“Okay,” Viola nodded slightly.

With that, she got up and walked toward the office.

After Viola left, the classmates teased, “Class leader, why is your face so red?”

“Class leader, do you like Viola Thomposn?”

Zhang Yang lowered his head, walked to his seat and sat down, flipping open a book, trying to maintain his composure.

His heart, however, was racing.

“Class leader, your book is upside down.”

Zhang Yang immediately turned the book right side up.

“Hahaha…”

The laughter around him grew louder.

Zhang Yang realized that his book hadn’t been upside down at all, but now it really was.

Zhang Yang felt extremely embarrassed, forcing himself to calm down.

“Fiona Knight,” a classmate sitting behind Fiona poked her back with a pen.

Fiona turned back, “What, what’s up?

The female classmate sitting behind Fiona, named Diana Hershey, had a baby-face and short hair that reached her ears, “Let’s add each other on WhatsApp.”

Fiona was startled at first, but then nodded, “Okay.”

After adding each other on WhatsApp, Diana asked, “Do you have Beautiful Thompson’s WhatsApp?”

“Beautiful Thompson?” Fiona was puzzled.

Diana explained, “Beautiful Thompson is your deskmate.”

Then, Diana continued, “I’ve added you to our class group. Can you bring Beautiful Thompson in later?”

“Alright.’

“Thank you, Fiona,” Diana handed her a cookie, “This is a homemade cookie my mom made, you can try it.”

Fiona took the cookie, “Thank you.”

“You’re welcome. We’re all classmates!” Diana continued, “Fiona, I’m sorry. I used to think you had a weird temper, so I didn’t dare to befriend you.”

People with physical defects are usually bad-tempered and psychologically abnormal.

Plus, other people spread rumors that Fiona was a mouse girl who could scare children unconscious, so the students in Class Six were even more afraid to approach Fiona.

It was not until Viola Thompson’s arrival that the classmates got to know a completely new Fiona Knight.

“It’s fine.”

In fact, Fiona Knight clearly felt that ever since Viola Thompson became her deskmate, the attitude of her classmates had gradually changed, and some even started to greet her on their own initiative. Diana Hershey smiled and said, “So are we friends now?”

Friends?

Fiona Knight was stunned for a moment, then nodded her head.

She didn’t expect Diana Hershey to say this.

Her heart was warmed.

From then on, she could have one more friend.

“Thank you, Fiona Knight.” In fact, Diana Hershey was quite guilty. She shouldn’t have isolated Fiona Knight before.

Staff room.

Miss Marseille watched Viola Thompson come over with a smile on her face, “Viola Thompson.”

“Miss Marseille, do you need something from me?”

Miss Marseille nodded, “Viola, you’ve been in our class for several days now. How are you finding it? Have you adjusted yet?”

“I’m quite used to it.”

“That’s good.” Miss Marseille continued, “Remember, if you encounter any difficulties in life or study, be sure to tell me in time. Although I am your teacher, you can also treat me as your older sister.”

Viola Thompson’s family background was complicated, and her foster parents were very harsh on her. Miss Marseille wanted to give her as much warmth as possible.

“Thank you, Miss Marseille. I will,” Viola Thompson nodded slightly.

Miss Marseille patted Viola Thompson’s shoulder, “Your foundation is good. As long as you continue working hard and focus on your studies, you’ll have no problem getting into a good university. No matter what situation you are in now, believe in your teacher. Studying will definitely change your fate.”

“Mm.”

Miss Marseille looked very satisfied with Viola Thompson.

This student was not only beautiful but also had good grades. Her homework in all subjects was completed exceptionally well, especially her thin gold script handwriting, which was simply amazing.

“There’s nothing else, you can go back to the classroom.”

After Viola Thompson left, another teacher in the staff room asked, “Miss Marseille, is the girl who just left the new transfer student in your class?”

“Yes.” Miss Marseille nodded.

“She’s really pretty!”

Miss Marseille smiled, “Indeed. Haven’t you noticed how the boys in our class don’t run outside during breaks anymore?”bender

“The boys in your class don’t run outside, but the boys in our class have become restless. You have to take responsibility, Miss Marseille!”

Five days passed in a flash.

Viola Thompson was going to the Bennett Clan for a follow-up visit today.

Edith Bennett was in a particularly good mood these few days, “Miss

Thompson, can I have my bandage removed soon?”

Viola Thompson was checking her pulse and nodded, “Yes, the day after tomorrow.”

“That’s great!”

A moment later, Viola Thompson released Edith Bennett’s hand and said, “You will have a high fever tonight, probably around 38 degrees. This is your body detoxifying itself, so don’t worry. You will be fine tomorrow morning.”

“Should I take a fever reducer?” asked Edith Bennett.

“No need.” Viola Thompson took out a bottle of medicine and handed it to her. “Take this medicine after meals, three pills at a time, three times a day.”

With that, Viola Thompson explained some other issues.

Edith Bennett took note of them all.

Around ten o’clock that night, Edith Bennett indeed started to have a fever.

Since Viola Thompson had mentioned this beforehand, Edith Bennett was not worried, but Harriet Bennett was very concerned.

After all, Edith Bennett was his only daughter. What if something terrible happened due to the fever?

“Edith, shall we go to the hospital?”

“It’s fine. Miss Thompson already mentioned the fever. It’s due to detoxification.” Edith Bennett’s voice was weak due to the high fever, and her lips were turning white.

“How can you be okay when you’re burning up like this?” Harriet Bennett paced back and forth anxiously.

Linda Wilson comforted Harriet Bennett from the side, “We need to trust Miss Thompson.”

Trust Miss Thompson?

It was impossible for Harriet Bennett to trust a teenager, especially when Edith Bennett was already burning up like this.

Harriet Bennett went outside and called Old Doctor Bruce.

When Old Doctor Bruce saw the call from Harriet Bennett, he knew something must have happened to Edith Bennett. A smile flashed in his eyes, “Hello, Mr.

Bennett. ”

Harriet Bennett told Old Doctor Bruce about Edith Bennett’s symptoms.

Upon hearing this, Old Doctor Bruce said, “The fever is a sign of infection in the wound. Emergency measures must be taken immediately; otherwise, it could be life-threatening.”

Hearing this, Harriet Bennett was terrified and immediately said, “Old Doctor

Bruce, please come over.”

Old Doctor Bruce squinted his eyes, “Mr. Bennett, I’ve warned you not to be led astray by a woman. Now that things have come to this point, you bear half the responsibility!”

“It’s all my fault! Please save my daughter.”

Old Doctor Bruce continued, “If you want me to save your daughter, please ask your wife to call me.”

Bearing compassion for his patients, as long as he heard Linda Wilson’s apology, he would help Edith Bennett..
