Substitute Marriage: Reborn As The Top Big-Shot

Ye Jun already had a direction in mind, “The ‘top female scholar’ was Elizabeth Thompson, at the time Viola had just joined our class, I did not know her well. Influenced by Elizabeth’s intentional defamation, my impression of Viola was extremely bad, so much so that… that I didn’t even allow Viola to formally join our class…”

By the end, Ye Jun was already in tears, “Harry, I regret my actions at that time too. I shouldn’t have let myself be manipulated by Elizabeth…”

Ye Jun was smart, she knew that this was not the time to go against Harry Thompson.

So.

She had to admit her mistake.

She admitted the mistake!

However, she wasn’t the one at fault.

She had to shift all the blame onto Elizabeth Thompson.

After all, Elizabeth’s reputation is already completely ruined!

Harry Thompson slightly furrowed his brow, “That’s it?”

Ye Jun nodded, “Yes, that’s it.”

Harry Thompson looked straight at Ye Jun, “Ye Jun, look at me.”

Ye Jun instantly lifted her head to look at Harry Thompson, then said: “Harry, I can swear to you! Actually, we can’t fully blame Elizabeth for this incident, it’s more that I didn’t pick up on her nature. I shouldn’t have blindly trusted her instigation…”

She acted convincingly.

Having helped numerous clients win cases, Harry Thompson felt that Ye Jun didn’t seem to be lying. Recalling the time when Ye Jun risked her life to save him, Harry Thompson smiled and patted her hand, “Alright, don’t cry anymore, little girl. I’m not unreasonable; as long as we clarify the situation, it’ll be fine.”

“Okay.” Ye Jun nodded, then said: “I… I’m afraid that you’ll be in a difficult situation. I’m scared people will accuse you of having poor judgment in choosing girlfriends.”

Ye Jun acted as though she was considering for Harry Thompson, “How about we temporarily separate? I… I’m a bit scared.”

She was really scared.

But, suggesting a break up was not just a plan of action, it was also a way to retreat in order to advance.

She wanted Harry Thompson to know that she didn’t need him at any cost, that she could break up with him anytime.

“Silly girl, what’s there to be afraid of!” Harry Thompson laughed, “Don’t worry, our family is reasonable, we don’t care about social status.”

“Okay.” Ye Jun nodded.

Harry Thompson looked at Ye Jun, “Promise me, don’t rashly bring up breaking up in the future.”

“Hmm.”

Harry Thompson continued, “Have a good rest now, call me if you need anything, I’ll step out for a bit.”

Ye Jun then nodded.

Harry Thompson went outside.

It had been a while since he had seen his brothers, Brandon Thompson and Samuel Thompson. Naturally, they had to have a good chat.

The brothers went to a golf course.

They golfed while chatting.

Harry Thompson felt a bit of regret that such a good day was not shared by Edward Thompson.

Mentioning Edward Thompson, Samuel Thompson said, “Edward is a good brother, but he’s too stubborn, won’t turn back unless he hits a wall.”

“Also, his judgment on people is poor,” Harry Thompson continued, “I have no idea what he was thinking! Does he regret it now!”

“Speaking of judgment,” Samuel Thompson laughed and joined in, “Your judgment is quite ordinary too, Harry. I think Ye Jun is not very good-looking, how did the two of you end up together?”

Not only is Samuel Thompson an artist, but he is also extremely keen on appearances.

It might be related to his own experiences.

Most of the people who came and went by Samuel Thompson were handsome men and beautiful women.

For some unknown reason, Samuel Thompson just found Ye Jun displeasing.

Without reason.

Harry Thompson laughed and replied, “Second brother, you know I’m not the kind of person who judges solely based on appearances.”

They say love is blind.

Harry Thompson didn’t think that way at all.

Initially, he noticed Ye Jun because of her name.

After getting to know her, he found that this girl was knowledgeable and well-educated.

He just happened to be lacking a girlfriend, and so Harry Thompson got together with Ye Jun.

Later on, under Mrs. Thompson’s reminder, Harry Thompson gradually began to be wary of Ye Jun.

However, what happened next completely changed Harry Thompson’s perception of Ye Jun.

During one of the trials, Harry Thompson offended the underworld forces of River City.

The next day, he received retaliation from the underworld.

He almost got hit by an unlicensed vehicle!

There was no way to avoid it!

Just at that moment, Ye Jun ran over from afar, directly pushing him away. Then, Ye Jun was hit and fell unconscious at the scene, eventually hospitalizing her for three days due to a concussion.

If it weren’t for Ye Jun back then.

The consequences would be unimaginable.

Ye Jun risked her life to save him, which made Harry Thompson lower his guard against Ye Jun and consider marrying her.
