Upon hearing this, Jake Leaford’s eyes sparkled, and he looked expectantly at Violet Summers.
Will the identity of the baby in Molly Walker’s belly be revealed now?
Violet looked at Jake with difficulty, and seeing that Michael Gallagher had no objections, she whispered, “From the accurate information I found, the child is indeed not yours, but Harry Lambert’s.”
The atmosphere was as silent as death.
“How did you find out? Is the information reliable?” Jake looked at her curiously, “We searched for days without finding anything, and you found it just by searching once. Who are you, exactly?”
Violet smiled slightly: “Our organization is called ‘W,’ haven’t you heard of it?”
“The ‘W’ organization? I never expected you to be part of it!” Jake looked astonished, then turned to Michael with sympathy, “There’s no doubt about the information obtained by this organization.”
“This Molly Walker is really bold!” Jake stood up, his face filled with righteous indignation, “See, no matter how good you are to her, she is still ungrateful. So angry, I want to swear.”
What men least endure is being cuckolded, especially almost becoming a father unknowingly.
“Actually, even if I hadn’t found out, you could have found out from the hospital. Molly is having Harry Lambert accompany her during childbirth, and they have also visited the delivery room together and booked the Postpartum
Care Center…” Stopping here, Violet paused, “On the family member column is Harry Lambert’s name.”
Michael’s face became terribly gloomy.
No wonder she said he was wishfully thinking; he was indeed wishfully thinking.
Thinking of Molly’s decisive divorce request, Michael sneered coldly.
Mom had said that Molly liked him, but she had a baby with someone else while being married. Was this her way of showing affection?
He didn’t want to go through this kind of blatant betrayal a second time.
Looking at Michael’s cold expression, Jake couldn’t find any comforting words to say.
It wasn’t long after the divorce that she had a child, and soon the whole world would know that Mr. Gallagher had been deceived.
“You guys can go out first, I want some peace.”
Leaning on his forehead with one hand, Michael’s handsome face was filled with exhaustion.
Jake quickly stood up, and Violet swiftly exited. As they left, the secretary walked in, saving to Michael, “Mr. Gallagher, Miss Walker wants to quit the competition, what do you think of this…?”
“Let her quit.”
Michael didn’t bother asking, abruptly spoke, his chilly voice was terrifying.
“Alright… alright.” The secretary stammered, his feet feeling like stepping on cotton, “Then we won’t have any participants.”
“I’ll do it.” Violet Summers smiled, “I don’t mind telling you, I was the third-place winner in the last jewelry design competition.”
The atmosphere suddenly became awkward.
Everyone stared at each other in surprise; they didn’t expect a seed player from the previous competition to be here.
“I also like to buy jewelry on a regular basis, and it later developed into a personal hobby. If I represent the Gallagher family in the competition, I may not get the best ranking, but at least I won’t embarrass you all.”
Upon hearing Violet’s words, the secretary’s face lit up with a smile. He originally thought that the Gallagher family could only withdraw from the competition but didn’t expect that the family would receive Violet’s help. “Mr. Gallagher, I think it’s fine, what do you think…?”
At this moment, Jake, who was checking his cell phone, exclaimed: “Violet Summers, the third-place winner of the last jewelry competition, was also the designer hired by the Norman family for this year’s competition but suddenly withdrew due to personal reasons…”
He looked at Violet, his face full of surprise: “You let down the Norman family but represent the Gallagher family in the competition, wouldn’t this cause a war between the two families?”
When the news spread, people would inevitably think that the Gallagher family had poached the Norman family’s talent.
“Just do it, represent the Gallagher family in the competition.” Michael’s deep eyes fell on Violet, his tone indifferent, “Ranking is not important; just do your best.”
If it weren’t for that person, he wouldn’t have let the company participate in such a competition.
The Gallagher family’s reputation was not built through competitions.
Facing Michael’s handsome face, Violet’s heart pounded violently.
She would represent the Gallagher family in the competition, getting closer to Michael again.
“I will do my best and live up to your expectations.”
She must win a place in the competition!
Overnight, the news that the Gallagher family had changed their designer spread far and wide, as this designer was originally supposed to represent the Norman family in that competition.
Although the competition was niche, in recent years, with the rise of live streaming and television shows promoting various competitions, it had gained a considerable fan base.
When Molly received the news, she was packing her luggage.
Elizabeth Aitken gave her a call.
“Molly, I heard that you withdrew from the competition due to health reasons.
Are you okay?”
“What withdrawal?” Molly was somewhat puzzled.
“The design competition in Capital City that you are participating in on behalf of the Gallagher family. Everyone is talking about it now, and their words are not pleasant…”
Molly quickly checked her cell phone, and indeed, the first trending topic was about the competition.
Withdrawal? She never withdrew!
What was wrong with Michael Gallagher? Was he making a private issue public?
Molly angrily picked up her cell phone to question Michael, but found that her call was blocked without even ringing.
She was blacklisted…
What did she do wrong? How come she “withdrew” when she woke up?
After reading a few more trending topics, Molly finally saw the news about Violet Summers representing the Gallagher family in the competition.
It turns out Michael’s goal was here…
No matter if it was personal revenge or something else, Violet Summers was indeed more “reliable” in every aspect.
However, once she goes to Capital City and straightens out the organization’s internal discipline, she will definitely expel Violet Summers.
By then, the most reliable person would become unreliable.
Molly frowned and decided to go to Michael’s company anyway. At the entrance of the Gallagher Tower, Violet and Michael were leaving together.
When Molly bumped into them directly, she was about to hide behind a big tree when Violet spotted her.
“Miss Walker…”
Molly’s face stiffened, forcing a smile as she stood there and watched the two approach.
This was their first meeting since their last argument.
Michael’s chin slightly raised, his face colder than ever.
His gaze swept over her indifferently, showing no emotion.
Violet, understanding the situation, said to Michael: “Mr. Gallagher, why don’t
I wait for you over there while you talk to Molly…?”
“No need.” Michael interrupted her coldly, emotionless, “Let’s go.”
Without looking at Molly, he took a step forward, his slender legs striding and his demeanor aloof.
His handsome face had sharp features, and his lips were coldly pursed.
Walking past her-
Seeing Michael like this, Molly couldn’t get any words out of her throat, and watched as he and Violet got into the same car.
Her calm heart was pricked like a needle.
Watching the Maybach leave, she clenched her fists tightly, her fingertips digging into her palms with pain.
She looked up at the Gallagher Tower, where she had worked for many years, her eyes sore.
She had feelings for the company, and the competition was her dream.
She really wanted to participate.
But now, it seemed that she didn’t have a chance..
