Substitute Marriage: Reborn As The Top Big-Shot

Sylvia Thompson opened the door.

Edward Thompson smiled and asked, Can I come in?

No! Sylvia said, with a straight face.

Seeing this, Edward was taken aback for a moment.

He felt a little uneasy.

Had Sylvia become angry?

Did she find out something?

Just then, Sylvia suddenly broke into a smile, Come in, Third Brother! I was just kidding!

You naughty girl! Edward smacked Sylvias head lightly, You scared me. I thought you were really mad.

Angry? Sylvia tilted her head, looked at Edward, and asked in a cutesy tone, Does Third Brother have something to hide from me?

No, no. Edward shook his head immediately.

He must not let Sylvia find out about that issue.

Really? Sylvia looked up at Edward, Third Brother?

Really, Edward said affectionately, patting her head, You are my favorite sister, I cant lie to you.

Sylvia suddenly had a mischievous grin on her face, reaching out to tickle Edwards waist.

Having grown up together, Sylvia knew all Edwards weaknesses all too well.

Edwards biggest weakness was that he was ticklish.

Sylvia tickled him and asked, Third Brother, do you confess?

In fact, its very simple to deal with sibling relationships with Edward.

He was different from Brandon Thompson.

Brandon was strict, mature, stable, and definitely wouldnt allow her to tickle him like this.

If Brandon saw this scene, he would undoubtedly stop it sternly and bring up some reasoning about how girls should avoid their fathers and boys should avoid their mothers.

Edward laughed so hard that tears came out.

Its just that Sylvia dared to treat him like this.

This was how siblings should be.

Playful, lighthearted, and full of laughter.

Brandon was just too old-fashioned and rigid.

Edward, who was ticklish to the point of helplessness, said, No, no, my dear sister. Your Third Brother isnt hiding anything from you! Sylvia laughed and asked, Third Brother, do you beg for mercy?

I beg for mercy!

Thats more like it. Sylvia let go of Edward.bender

As soon as Sylvia stopped tickling his waist, Edward quickly grabbed her with a grasp and pinned her on the bed.

Third Brother, youre playing dirty!

Edward laughed and said, You little rascal, youre allowed to play dirty, but Im not?

The siblings played around for a while before calming down.

Sylvia looked at Edward, So, Third Brother, what did you want from me?

Edward remembered the important matter at hand and said, Sylvia, have you heard any news about Viola recently?

Viola Thompson.

Upon hearing this name, Sylvias expression darkened for a moment, but then it disappeared so quickly that Edward didnt even catch it.

Not yet, Sylvia shook her head, feeling guilty, Im sorry, Third Brother. I still havent found any clues about my sister, have I let our parents hopes down?

Seeing Sylvia like this, Edward immediately said, Sylvia, you mustnt think like that. Third Brother knows youve been trying hard to find her. Its not your fault if you cant find Viola. If she were so easy to find, our parents wouldnt have searched for so many years without finding any clues. Im sorry Sylvia apologized with a hint of redness in her eyes.

Edward found this pitiful and lovely sight of Sylvia hard to bear.

Sylvia was making such an effort in searching for Viola, yet Brandon doubted her intentions.

Fortunately.

Fortunately, Sylvia didnt know about it yet.

Edward looked at Sylvia, his eyes tender. He hugged her and said, Sylvia, you dont have to apologize. If you encounter any difficulties during your search for Viola, remember to tell Third Brother. With my network, Ill solve the problem in the shortest possible time. Hearing this, Sylvia narrowed her eyes.

What did Edward mean?

Did he want to get involved in this matter?

How ridiculous.

How truly ridiculous.

The Thompson Family kept saying they trusted her, which was why they were willing to entrust her with the task of finding Viola. But now, why did Edward want to meddle in it?

He was obviously suspicious of her.

Sylvia bit her lip in indignation.

She didnt understand.

All these years, she had been playing the roles of granddaughter, daughter, and sister so well. Why wouldnt they accept her!

Although it was difficult to accept, Sylvia didnt show it. Instead, she nodded and said, Third Brother, thank you.

Silly girl, Edward rubbed Sylvias head, Why are you thanking Third Brother? Moreover, Viola is also my sister. Just like you, I wish to find her as soon as possible..
