Chapter 206 - 206: 119: Grandparent and grandchild meet 2
Zane Lentz laughed and said, Dad, you misunderstood
Patriarch Lentz waved his hand with a disappointed face, interrupting Zanes unfinished words.
Then, Patriarch Lentz continued, All of you, go out.
Upon hearing this, the group left the ward.
Patriarch Lentz continued, Viola.
Grandpa Lentz, do you need anything? Viola Thompson asked as she turned around.
Patriarch Lentz continued, You stay.
Okay. Viola nodded her head.
Seeing Viola be kept by Patriarch Lentz, Zane Lentz, and Bianca Lentz felt extremely uncomfortable.
Old Master keeping Viola here meant he definitely wanted to give her something valuable.
Why though?
Viola was just an outsider after all.
The possessions of Patriarch Lentz belonged to the Lentz Clan!
This was too unfair.
After everyone else had left, only Patriarch Lentz and Viola remained in the ward.
Patriarch Lentz looked at Viola.
He felt a little heartache for her.
This young girl had not had an easy life.
Having lost her parents at a young age, and after being adopted and even sacrificing her liver to save someones life, she was still abandoned.
Since then, she had grown up in the countryside.
Viola was brought back by the Thompson Clan this time with a purpose in mind.
Viola, sit.
Mm. Viola nodded slightly and sat down beside the bed.
Patriarch Lentz continued, Viola, do you know how many children I have?
Three? Viola answered.
Patriarch Lentz shook his head, Actually, its four.
At this point, Patriarch Lentz paused for a moment and continued, The third son, who should have been in the middle, was born with a congenital heart defect. Medical treatments were not advanced at that time, and he passed away before he was even three months old.
Remembering the past, Patriarch Lentz felt a little heartache.
If that child hadnt suffered through those events, he would have been over forty by now.
Patriarch Lentz looked at Viola and continued, Viola, the reason I tell you this is to let you know that sometimes, even parents cannot guarantee their childrens safe and smooth growth. So, you shouldnt resent your biological parents. Maybe, they had some insurmountable difficulties of their own.
Patriarch Lentz patted Violas hand and continued, Viola, you and Terrence should be good to each other. Although Terrence doesnt have any notable achievements now, Grandpa believes he will definitely make great achievements in the future.
Mm. Viola nodded slightly, l believe so too. Hearing that, Patriarch Lentz looked at Viola.
His eyes were filled with a look of disbelief.
What?
Viola said she believed in him?
Patriarch Lentz had even prepared himself for any other answer from Viola.
After all, Terrence Lentz had nothing now.
Nobody, including Harlan Lentz and Eleanor Armstrong, believed that Terrence would have a bright future.
But Viola smiled and said she believed in him.
Moreover-bender
Even though she was smiling, Patriarch Lentz saw the seriousness in her eyes.
At that moment-
Patriarch Lentz was utterly shocked.
He didnt even know what to say.
He just held Violas hand and said, Viola, thank you.
Viola smiled and said, So, Grandpa Lentz, you have to get better soon. Lets watch Lentz grow stronger together.
Good. Patriarch Lentz nodded his head.
After a brief moment, Patriarch Lentz took out a prepared document from under the bed, Viola, this is for you.
What is this? Viola asked curiously.
Patriarch Lentz replied, This is all the shares and industries I own.
He didnt trust anyone else with this.
But Viola was the exception.
He had great confidence in her.
Patriarch Lentz continued, Ive already contacted a lawyer about this. As long as you sign here, the transfer documents will take effect immediately.
Patriarch Lentz wanted to transfer all his properties and industries to Violas name.
Grandpa Lentz, I cant accept these things, Viola refused directly.
Are you afraid they will cause trouble for you? Patriarch Lentz continued, Dont worry, as long as Im here, no one will dare to make trouble for you!
Viola shook her head slightly, Thats not the reason.
Then whats the reason? Patriarch Lentz was extremely puzzled.
Viola continued, Instead of reaping gains without doing any work, I prefer conquering.
Upon hearing her answer, Patriarch Lentz was stunned once again.
He didnt expect her reply.
He couldnt believe that she was just a teenager.
Patriarch Lentz had been in the business world for a lifetime.
Businessmen value profit most.
He knew very well that there was no one in this world who didnt love money.
Even close relatives who share blood ties.
Just like Zane Lentz and Bianca Lentz..
