206: Parent-child identification

Aunt Zhang?

Upon hearing this, even the typically calm Mandel Thompson was taken aback.

He immediately closed the door of the study.

At that moment, Edward Thompson happened to pass by the corridor and saw Viola Thompson standing in Mandel's study, followed by Mandel closing the door.

He frowned in silence.

Normally, when he was alone with Sylvia Thompson, Mandel would scold him loudly and put on the airs of an older brother.

Now what?

Why could he be alone with Viola, but not with Sylvia?

The atmosphere in the house was becoming more and more oppressive.

In the study.

Mandel looked at Viola.

"Little sister, you're not joking, are you?"

"No," Viola said seriously, "although I don't have any solid evidence right now, I think my guess is very likely to be correct."

For someone as intelligent as Mandel,

if Sylvia were really Aunt Zhang's biological child, he couldn't imagine how terrifying the situation would be!
