Chapter 45: 044: So it’s Miss Thompson!

Translator: 549690339

The boss was now entirely convinced.

Viola Thompson had won him over with her skill.

He never thought he would encounter such a computer whizz in the real world.

Typically, these experts only existed in the virtual world.

His desire to be her apprentice was not a sudden whim, but a sincere wish. If he could learn even the slightest bit from Viola Thompson, he would be content.

“Great Master, if you’re in need of an apprentice, how about me?” The boss enthusiastically sold himself, “I admit I’m not much to look at, and even a bit bald. But there’s a saying, ‘An intelligent mind does not need hair.’ If you take me on as your apprentice, I promise you, if you say east, I won’t go west. If you say west, I won’t go east!”

In the end, the boss even patted his shiny bald head, looking at Viola

Thompson with a hopeful expression: “What do you think, Great Master, will you consider it?”

Viola Thompson pondered seriously, “What benefits would I get from taking you as my apprentice?”

“Great Master, if you take me as your apprentice, I’ll buy you milk tea and treat you to all kinds of delicious food! You can do whatever you want!”

Milk Tea.

Upon hearing these two words, Viola Thompson’s eyes sparkled, “I want Taro Milk Tea, no ice, 70% sweetness.”

Hit the nail on the head!

Who knew the Great Master loved milk tea so much!

Upon hearing this, the boss was very excited, “Okay! Great Master, just wait! I’ll go get it for you right now!”

After saying this, he ran out of the shop.

Very quickly, the boss came back in carrying the milk tea.

“Great Master, this is Taro Milk Tea, and this is their new Chestnut Taro Paste Milk Tea, both 70% sweet, no ice.”

“Thank you.” Viola Thompson took the milk tea and took a sip.

The boss touched his shiny bald head, “Great Master, let me introduce myself. I am Cleveland, Zhang Dazhu. ‘Da’ as in archer’s bow, and ‘Zhu’ as in pillar. This year, I am 28 years old. I graduated from Oceanspring University’s Hydraulics Engineering. I am single.”

28 years old.

Upon hearing this, Viola Thompson looked at Cleveland.

Cleveland said, a bit embarrassed, “Although I might look a little older, I am truly 28. If you don’t believe me, I can show you my ID card!”

Viola Thompson nodded slightly, then said, “Viola Thompson. Viola as in ‘vi’ in

‘vide’ and ‘la’ in ‘lass’.”

“Nice name!” Cleveland continued, “Great Master, does this mean you’ll be my master from now on?”

“Hmm.”

Cleveland was extremely excited, “Then, then should I bow to the master?”

Having said that, he bent his knees to kneel down, but luckily, Viola Thompson quickly grabbed him.

Cleveland looked at her with a baffled expression, “Great Master, you’re not going to back out, are you?!”

Viola Thompson took out her phone, “Let’s first add each other on WhatsApp. If you have any questions later, you can find me there.”

“Okay, Master.” Cleveland immediately straightened up and took out his phone to add Viola Thompson on WhatsApp.

Added on WhatsApp.

Cleveland continued to speak, “Master, can you teach me how to upgrade computers?”

“I can.” Viola Thompson nodded lightly.

Upgrading computers was a piece of cake for Viola Thompson, but for Cleveland, it involved a lot to consider in detail.

Luckily, Cleveland was quite a quick learner.

After Viola Thompson explained, she sent him a link on WhatsApp, “These are the notes I made, you can study them.”

Knight Family.

Linda Wilson brought Edith Bennett to visit the Knight family.

Seeing that Edith Bennett’s face was now completely healed, Aurora Scouts was full of surprise.

She had seen Edith Bennett once after the injury.

The injury was very serious, not much better than Fiona Knight’s condition. Time and again, the doctors said that there was no cure.

“Edith, come here, let me take a look.” Aurora Scouts called Edith Bennett over.

Edith Bennett walked over.

Aurora Scouts scrutinized Edith Bennett’s face closely.

From a distance, Edith Bennett’s face seemed almost completely healed, but up close, there were still some marks. However, the fact that her face had healed so well in such a short time was truly astonishing.

Linda Wilson explained, “Edith’s face is still in the process of recovering. Miss Thompson said another half a month of dietary restriction should completely heal it.’

“Miss Thompson?” Upon hearing this, Aurora turned to Linda Wilson, “The one who cured Edith is Miss Thompson?”

“Yes!” Linda nodded, “You know Miss Thompson too?”

“Of course, I do.” Upon learning this, a long-missing smile lit up Aurora Scout’s face. “The doctor that our Fiona found is also Miss Thompson.”

It seems that Elizabeth Thompson is truly competent.

Otherwise, she wouldn’t have been able to restore Edith’s face so well.

“Really?” Linda Wilson looked at Aurora Scouts surprisingly, laughing, “I originally came here with Edith to recommend Miss Thompson to you. It seems I don’t need to do that anymore.”

Linda Wilson and Aurora Scouts were college friends, and their relationship was particularly good in college.

After graduation, the two went their separate ways and lost contact for many years.

Their reunion occurred due to a cocktail party a month before.

Because she knew Fiona Knight’s face hadn’t been healing for a while, she had rushed to bring Edith Bennet to visit as soon as she was healed.

Aurora Scouts laughed, “I was worried that Miss Thompson was too young and inexperienced, but it looks like my concerns were unfounded.”

Linda continued, “Speaking of which, my husband had the same worry before, considering Miss Thompson is only 18 years old. We had a big fight about it. If we had gone with his worries, Edith would have missed this opportunity! So, Aurora, you don’t need to worry about anything. Just leave it to Miss

Thompson.”

“Okay! Linda, thank you for coming to tell me this.” Aurora Scouts walked over to Linda, holding her hand. Linda’s visit had truly reassured her.

“We’ve been good friends for so many years, it’s too formal to say thank you.”

Just then, Linda’s phone suddenly rang, and she immediately answered the call.

She didn’t know what was said on the other end of the line, but after ending the call, she told Aurora Scouts, “Aurora, something suddenly came up and I have to make a quick trip home. I’ll come again to visit you another day.”

“Since you have things to do, I won’t hold you back. Be sure to come and visit when you have time.” Aurora Scouts stood up and saw them out.

After Linda Wilson and Edith Bennett left, Aurora Scouts immediately rushed upstairs to share the good news with Madam Knight.

Madam Knight was now 86.

Ever since her son passed away, her only emotional support had been her only granddaughter, Fiona Knight.

She wanted to see Fiona get married and have children in her lifetime.

But after Fiona’s disfigurement, Madam Knight’s health worsened a lot, and she spent most of the time lying in bed. Now hearing that someone can cure her beloved granddaughter, she immediately became lively, “Aurora, do you really mean it?”

Aurora Scouts nodded, tear twinkling in her eyes, “Truly. The child of my college friend was seriously injured before. After Miss Thompson’s treatment, he has completely recovered now.”

Just then, the housekeeper knocked on the door from outside.

“Madam Knight, Mrs. Scouts.”

“What’s happening?” Aurora Scouts turned her head back.

The housekeeper said, “Miss Thompson has arrived.”

Upon hearing this, Madam Knight immediately sat up from the bed, “Quickly, take Miss Thompson to the hall!”
