The Ex-husband Wants to Get Power Every Day After the Divorce - Chapter 428
Chapter 428: Chapter 425: Exposing Identity Starting from the Entertainment Industry
“W” organization is a company, an enterprise, and more than that, it’s a symbol of honor.
Anyone who is kicked out of the organization is not just quitting a company, they are considered a failure.
Christopher Evans is doing this to cut her off from the company; he is using this as an opportunity to take revenge, hoping to completely defeat these people.
She will not tolerate seeing her former colleagues and partners being treated like this.
Michael Gallagher watched her with a complicated expression on his face. Something felt off, but he couldn’t pinpoint what it was.
“That’s great, Boss. I told you Mr. Gallagher would agree to work with you.”
“Now that we’ve agreed on this, let’s order some food.” Scarlett Jackson filled with joy, picked up the menu, and put it in front of Michael, “Mr. Jenkins, they have many dishes you love here, sweet and sour pork and pine nut fish are their specialties, if you like….”
Molly Walker stood up and started walking towards the door.
Michael grabbed her wrist, “Where are you going?”
“Home.” Molly frowned, gently shaking off his hand, “I’ve seen everyone I needed to, and those I didn’t need to.”
Michael frowned, “You haven’t had dinner yet.”
He knew she was still angry about what had happened with Harry Lambert, but he wasn’t feeling great either at this point.
“I’m not hungry.” Molly replied blunty, she glanced at Scarlett Jackson and Violet Summers, then sneered, “You wouldn’t think I could eat with these people, would you?”
Needless to say about Violet Summers, but Scarlett Jackson was the one who hurt her family multiple times.
Not to mention having a meal with them; even the sight of them spoiled her appetite.
Seeing this, Scarlett’s eyes welled up with tears, she complained, “Ivy Thompson, we both know why you miscarried. You should take responsibility for not protecting your baby instead of blaming me over and over.”
In front of Molly, Scarlett decided to speak up, “I asked the doctor, your pregnancy was difficult from the start; with you running around everywhere, it’s no wonder something happened to the baby. You are the first person responsible for your health, you can’t blame me forever.”
Speaking of this, Scarlett felt wronged, especially after consulting the doctor, she felt Molly was pushing all the blame onto her.
Molly’s face didn’t change, her brows knit with disgust.
She didn’t blame anyone for the loss of her baby, but what Scarlett had done was far worse.
“Whether I’ve wronged you, you know it very well.” Molly sneered, “Are the evil things you’ve done really just limited to this?”
Scarlett turned pale.
Indeed, the things she had done were far more than that.
Thinking about how she had drugged Jerry Jenkins, Scarlett felt a jump in her heart.
She just wanted Jerry and Zoey Lambert to get together as soon as possible. She hadn’t expected Jerry to get caught and sent to the police station.
If Jerry implicated her, her reputation would be ruined forever.
Looking at Molly’s disdainful face, Scarlett was trembling with fear.
Could Ivy possibly know about this?
Scarlett remained silent, staring intently at Molly, fearing she would mention the drugging incident.
Although she had done a lot of terrible things, none were criminal. At worst, she had tried to sow discord and evil schemes against Ivy.
But what she did to Jerry Jenkins was her one and only crime.
As long as it didn’t get out, no one could get hold of her.
Seeing Scarlett’s silence, Michael gave her a cold glance before saying to Molly: “I’ll go with you.”
Molly shook her head and pushed his hand away, saying coldly, “I have other things to do. I need to leave. You guys carry on.”
Having said that, she strode off.
Just as Michael was about to follow her, Christopher Evans stopped him: “Mr. Jenkins, we haven’t finished talking about our deal.”
“Mr. Gallagher, my boss is very busy and it’s rare for you two to meet. Why don’t you chat a little more?”
As Violet Summers spoke halfway, she was silenced by an icy glance from Michael, and she felt a chill down her spine.
“Sorry, I have other things to do.” Michael Gallagher curtly excused himself, avoiding everyone else in the room and quickly leaving.
Watching Michael leave without looking back, Scarlett blushed in embarrassment, her face turning from green to white.
“Mr. Evans, don’t be angry. I will make sure to persuade Mr. Jenkins.” Scarlett felt awful but she had to maintain that man’s dignity.
If Christopher Evans and Jerry Jenkins fell out, taking over the organization would become a tricky process, and all her hard work would be in vain.
She had to control Christopher Evans.
There was no change in Christopher Evans’ expression. Since Michael Gallagher had agreed to his conditions, his goal was achieved. Whether he would stay for the meal or not was no longer important.
“I have something else to do next, so I won’t stay for the meal. We can arrange another time when we’re free.” Christopher Evans signaled Violet Summers, who left with him.
Watching them leave, Scarlett Jackson sat in the chair and gently massaged her temples.
Zoey Lambert’s issue was a storm she had to handle.
…
The largest police station in the center of Capital City, several police cars were parked at the entrance, with a red Ferrari convertible parked outside.
Scarlett Jackson, wearing sunglasses, walked out of the Police Station, opened the car door, and quickly got in.
She didn’t see Jerry Jenkins.
He refused to see her.
Scarlett Jackson’s heart suddenly clenched.
She knew that nothing good would come from a conversation at the Police Station, but she hadn’t expected Jerry Jenkins to refuse to see her.
The issue was still a pressing concern.
At that moment, her cell phone rang. Her assistant from the entertainment industry was calling.
“Miss Jackson, the Big Boss is hosting a banquet tonight at the amusement park. I have got an invitation here. Would you like to go?”
“Big Boss?” Scarlett Jackson’s eyes lit up.
The Big Boss was the most prominent figure in the entertainment industry.
When it came to the biggest capital in the entertainment industry, it had to be this Big Boss. Surprisingly, this person was very mysterious and only a few people had ever seen him.
Even those who had seen him never shared photos, and people in the industry didn’t even know what he looked like.
The issue with Olivia Sawyer was almost entirely the work of this individual.
Considering that Mr. Jenkins would soon be taking over the “W” organization, and she was also somewhat of a boss in the organization, Scarlett Jackson smiled.
“Go, of course I’ll go.”
She wanted to tell this Big Boss that the “W” organization was about to change hands.
If the Big Boss knew the truth, he might change sides.
With this prospect in mind, Scarlett Jackson grew hopeful.
She wanted Olivia Sawyer to know that the person backing her was about to step down.
…
At this point, Molly Walker also received a call from Harry Lambert.
“If someone wants to take your place, then we should flaunt our position right in front of their eyes.” Harry Lambert’s voice was filled with bright confidence, “The Big Boss is going to appear tonight. This earthquake will start with the entertainment industry.”
Hearing Harry Lambert’s words, Molly Walker didn’t refute him.
This so-called Big Boss of the entertainment industry was always Harry Lambert.
There was supposed to be an awards ceremony next week, and Harry Lambert wanted to reveal his identity before that.
Thinking about how Michael Gallagher dealt with Harry Lambert and their partners, Molly Walker lightly laughed, “If you want to do it, go for it.”
The moment Michael Gallagher chose Christopher Evans, their paths diverged.
“For tonight’s banquet, Olivia Sawyer asked if she could invite you. Even if you don’t want to go, she’ll probably invite you anyway.”
Harry Lambert’s words were filled with praises for Olivia Sawyer.
This Olivia Sawyer was grateful and rewarding, proving that it was not in vain that he had put so much effort into promoting her.
Molly Walker raised an eyebrow, thinking about how Olivia Sawyer had visited her while she was in the hospital, her expression softened.
Just like Harry Lambert, she had a good impression of Olivia Sawyer.
She knew that today’s banquet was the first step in Harry Lambert revealing his identity and making a name for himself.
As his friend, she naturally had to support him.
