Chapter 1039: 277: Family Portrait, the Capital City is about to change!_1

Rachel Barton glanced at the man in the suit before her, hesitated for a moment, then nodded and followed his steps.

Although she didn't know who the man in the suit worked for.

But Rachel knew, this man was not a threat to her.

Not only was he not a threat, but he was her benefactor.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have gone through the trouble of bailing her out of the police station.

The Thompson Clan held significant sway in Capital City.

Getting her out from under their watchful eyes wouldn't be easy.

Actually, an answer had already formed in Rachel's mind.

It must be Mr. White.

But until she saw the true face of the person in question, she couldn't be certain.

Rachel narrowed her eyes, refraining from further comments.

The two of them got into the car.

This was a luxurious Bentley, not only was the exterior luxurious, but the interior was dazzlingly grand.

In the back seat sat a young and beautiful woman.

She looked like an assistant.

While Rachel was still processing everything, the young woman asked with a gentle tone, "Miss Si, what would you like to drink?"

Rachel was stunned once again.

It was her first time learning that one could actually order a drink in a luxury car, with such attentive service.

Seeing that Rachel didn't respond, the young woman asked again, "Miss Si?"

Rachel finally snapped back to reality, "A cup of coffee will do."

"Alright."

The young woman nodded, opened the thermos and passed a cup of coffee to Rachel, "Instant coffee, Miss Si, please make do with it for now."

The temperature was just right.

The sourc𝗲 of this content is freēwēbηovel.c૦m.

Neither cold nor hot.

The slightly bitter taste was mixed with a hint of creaminess and sweetness.

It tasted much better than instant coffee.

After a sip of coffee, Rachel looked at the young woman and asked, "May I ask, who is your master?"

The young woman smiled but didn't directly answer Rachel's question. Instead, she said, "Miss Si, when the time comes for you to know, you will understand."

Despite her curiosity, Rachel didn't press further.

The car drove on.

...

On the other side.

Terrence Lentz was speeding, managing to condense a thirty-minute journey into just over ten minutes.

The dumplings from Sanfu were incredibly delicious and had recently been nominated as one of the top ten trending delicacies, making it popular with a long queue. Terrence took out his phone and called Viola Thompson.

"Hello, Viola."

"Lentz."

The moment Mrs. Thompson heard Viola's voice, she perked up and signaled to Viola to put the call on speaker.

She wanted to hear if Terrence had called to tattle.

Viola smiled faintly, put the call on speaker, then asked, "Lentz, what's up?"

Terrence responded, "I've arrived at the Sanfu Dumpling House. I heard their dumplings are really good. Do you want any? If you do, I can order some for you too."

"I am not hungry yet, just bring some for grandma."

"Then I'll hang up."

His voice remained as low as ever.

"Okay. Lentz, drive carefully on the way back, no speeding."

"Alright."

Just one word, but it was filled with immense doting.

After hanging up, Mrs. Thompson narrowed her eyes, "This Sherry, is she that easy-going?"

Viola chuckled softly, "Grandma, his surname is Lentz."

"Ah, right clearly, it's Lentz," finished saying, Mrs. Thompson asked, "Viola, do you like him a lot?"

"Mhm."

"What do you like about him?" Mrs. Thompson continued.

Viola was a sucker for good looks, "He is handsome... and he's got six-pack abs too!"

Mrs. Thompson tutted dismissively, "Who in the military doesn't have a six-pack? Your grandpa used to have them too, and not just abs, he also had biceps!"

Being handsome was an undeniable fact.

"But Lentz is a common man, he's not in the military," Viola added.

"That's true." Mrs. Thompson nodded.

For ordinary people, unless they have great self-discipline, it would be quite difficult to have a six-pack.

Viola continued, "Also, Lentz has biceps and oblique abdominal muscles. Grandma, was grandpa handsome when he was young?"

"Handsome! Of course, he was!" The young Mrs. Thompson was a total flirt back in her days. Just thinking about the young Old Master Thompson, her eyes instantly lit up, "If he hadn't been handsome, would I have agreed to marry him? Back then he was the most handsome in our regiment!"

"Really?" Viola asked.

"Of course!" Mrs. Thompson nodded, "We still have photos of your grandpa when he was young at home, I'll show you when we go back."
