“Yeah, my brother and I both guessed it, right, bro?” Joshua Thompson slapped Damian Thompson’s shoulder casually. Damian raised his eyebrow slightly, but remained silent.
He didn’t guess, he found out.
Considering Gillian Thompson and Ivy Thompson’s attitudes that day, it wasn’t hard to guess.
As he listened, the light in Nicholas Thompson’s eyes gradually dimmed.
As expected, he was the only one kept in the dark
He thought Gabriel had changed, but she didn’t get better, she just became greedier, even snatching up such an accomplishment for herself.
Wasn’t she afraid that after being exposed, she’d lose face for both her father and herself?!
Looking at Gillian Thompson trying to maintain her composure, Nicholas Thompson was extremely disappointed.
Molly Walker’s attitude towards Daniel Thompson led everyone to speculate. She had been trying to protect the Thompson Group when she was on the phone earlier, but now it seemed like she was tearing off her mask?
“If I were her, I would tear my mask off with Daniel Thompson too.”
The credit should have been Molly’s, but it was snatched by her adopted daughter. Daniel Thompson had blatantly favored them just now, and they could see and hear it clearly; it was nothing but contempt for his own daughter.
“No wonder he hadn’t found his real daughter for so many years; he must not have been looking for her seriously.”
“Yeah, with the Thompson family’s abilities, it’s impossible that they couldn’t find a daughter in this city. It would be laughable if it got out.”
The comments from the others reached Daniel Thompson, and his face couldn’t be described as ugly as they unabashedly belittled him.
But he chose it all himself.
Gillian Thompson bowed her head in shame, seemingly not expecting to be exposed on the spot.
Daniel sighed in frustration, giving Molly a deep look before turning and leaving with a cold snort.
He could no longer bear to stay here for another second!
“Daddy ” Gillian Thompson wanted to follow him, only to shudder after being met with Daniel Thompson’s icy glance.
She stood awkwardly, her fair face blushing hotly.
“Come with me.”
Another voice relieved her embarrassment, and Gillian glanced back to see Nicholas Thompson’s frowning, cold face.
“Second brother ” Gillian’s heart skipped a beat, and after hesitating for a moment, she followed him out.
“Miss Thompson, I have some more questions for you. Why don’t we sit and chat?” Jake Leaford kindly invited.
Molly hesitated for a moment, then nodded.
In the corner of the banquet hall, two other people watched the entire scene that had just unfolded.
The space was closed off, but they could see everything happening outside the private room.
“To get five tickets in one go and have the ‘W’ organization escort her, Ivy Thompson’s identity is indeed extraordinary.”
Jake Leaford swirled his wine glass, his face showing an ambiguous smile.
“People with such a high status won’t enter marriage casually; her marriage to you must also be part of her plan.”
The surrounding air seemed to freeze as Jake Leaford’s response echoed in his mind, a bitter taste spreading in his mouth.
Encased in darkness, Michael Gallagher leaned sideways against a chair, dressed in black clothes, both handsome and decadent.
“Luckily, this hotel is your property; otherwise, we wouldn’t have been able to see this performance.”
Jake Leaford sighed softly.
Michael knew without Jake mentioning it, from the moment Molly approached him to marrying him, she must have had some kind of motive.
Thinking about how he had become her pawn, he couldn’t suppress the anger deep within him.
He had fallen for her, but she might not be sincere.
“Has Elizabeth Aitken been found yet?” Michael Gallagher asked, skillfully changing the subject.
“That woman Elizabeth, she’s determined to make me restless.” Jake Leaford’s face was filled with bitterness.
Elizabeth Aitken’s family had just vanished under their noses, and not just him, even Michael Gallagher couldn’t find any trace of them.
Thinking that Elizabeth was Ivy Thompson’s friend, she was most likely hiding with Ivy.
Jake Leaford was talking to himself before gradually realizing that Michael Gallagher’s gaze was fixed on a certain spot.
Where his gaze landed was the scene of Molly Walker and Jeremy Norman chatting happily.
“Wasn’t he supposed to have returned to Capital City? How did he come back again!” Jake Leaford furrowed his brows.
Michael Gallagher chuckled coldly, with a misty haze around the cigarette at the corner of his mouth.
He thought of that day at the hospital when Molly’s mother spoke.
She said, Molly was considering being with Jeremy Norman.
To consider, was to agree.
A wave of anger rose inside his heart, his sexy Adam’s apple moving, and his beautiful eyes filled with coldness.
“Molly, your mom said you’re considering being with me. Is it true?”
Upon knowing that Molly no longer rejected him, Jeremy Norman rushed back overnight.
Molly looked at the man in front of her, her lips slightly pursed, and gently nodded: “I did say that, but ”
“I understand what you mean.” Jeremy Norman quickly interrupted her, “I read the message you sent me, and I agree.”
Molly’s eyes slightly curved, chin gently lifted, her bright eyes were clear and calm: “Thank you, Jeremy Norman.”
The two of them leaned affectionately together, and before long, people saw them holding hands.
Later, on eBay, Jeremy happily posted a photo of the two of them holding hands with the caption: ‘Decades of secret love are finally fulfilled.’
Ten years, it turned out he had secretly loved Ivy Thompson for ten years!
A single stone stirred up a thousand waves, and on the day when Gillian Thompson lost face, Ivy Thompson and Jeremy Norman made their relationship official.
Daniel Thompson was furious in the mansion, but when he learned of this news, his anger subsided a lot.
After all, Ivy was his child, and bones might be broken but the tendons were still connected. If the Thompson family and the Norman family unite in marriage, losing face today would not be a big deal.
Thinking of what Gillian had done, Daniel Thompson frowned. At that moment, a sobbing Gillian returned and immediately caught sight of Daniel Thompson. She knelt down with a “thud.”
“Daddy, I was wrong. I was possessed. I just wanted your approval and attention so badly. I was wrong. Please forgive me, Daddy!”
Seeing Gillian sobbing and gasping for air, Daniel Thompson steeled himself to look away: “Get up. I never taught you to kneel to others at every turn.”
“Kowtowing to heaven, earth, and parents is what I should do when I make mistakes.” After saying that, she kowtowed respectfully.
Daniel Thompson suddenly felt an inexplicable discomfort in his heart and frowned, “Get up. If you have something to say, say it properly. Don’t keep kneeling!”
Especially since one of her legs was a prosthetic, which made him feel inexplicably eerie.
Gillian’s tears fell one by one, choking back sobs as she wiped her tears: “Daddy, are you going to let sister marry Jeremy Norman?”
Before Daniel Thompson could answer, Joshua Thompson’s voice interrupted: “Yes, Fourth Sister is about to get married. What? Are you still delusional about having something with Jeremy Norman?”
“You should take a look at your current reputation.” Joshua Thompson walked over, sneered disdainfully, and looked at Daniel Thompson. “Father, it’s time to send her back. I think if you continue to keep someone like her at home, next time it won’t just be you who loses face, but our entire family.”
Mentioning the matter of “losing face,” Daniel Thompson’s face turned shades of green and white.
He hadn’t had the chance to settle accounts with Gillian about today’s incident.
Looking at her still kneeling in front of him, he just felt bad luck for no apparent reason.
“Why are you still kneeling! Kneeling for what? Do you think I won’t do anything to you?” Daniel Thompson suppressed the urge to kick her away. “Your sister is about to marry Jeremy Norman. No matter how much you like him, put away that thought and don’t make me lose face again.”
Although this daughter of his was a waste, it seemed that the other daughter was starting to be promising.
As long as they unite with the Norman family, he can wipe out all their past issues.
As long as he sincerely apologizes to Ivy, she should be able to forgive him.
After all, he was her father.
Her only father.
