“Considering the frequency of your meetings, don’t tell me you two aren’t close.” As soon as her words fell, she really saw Jake Smith’s expression show some strain.
Jake Smith’s handsome face turned cold at this moment, quite different from his previous demeanor.
After inadvertently hearing his ambiguous conversation with Isabelle Richardson last time, Molly Walker investigated him thoroughly from beginning to end. Due to his job as a doctor, Jake Smith met many people every day, making it difficult for her to find any flaws.
Due to his good looks, Jake Smith had gained some fame on the internet and was an internet celebrity doctor. He had remained single even at the age of thirty.
In fact, she could only guess at his relationship with Amelia Collins.
The business card she gave to Amelia Collins that day was not an ordinary one; it was equipped with location tracking.
By a strange coincidence, Amelia left the Gallagher residence and hurried to this hospital, directly finding Jake Smith.
Since Amelia was not afraid of power and didn’t love money, it must be for love.
Now, looking at Jake Smith’s reaction, Molly felt more certain about her suspicions in her heart.
Jake Smith didn’t expect Molly to be able to investigate this too. Nothing had happened before, and now that Molly had found him, it could only be because there was a problem when Amelia came to see him last time.
“Dr. Smith, your salary should be quite high, right?” Molly sat down next to the table, tapping it gently with her hand in an offhand manner and saying, “Your family is well-off, and now you’re an internet celebrity doctor, but you are still only average compared to your family. Your father and mother have always hoped you would have more ambitions. If they knew you indirectly killed someone, they probably wouldn’t be able to hold their heads high for the rest of their lives.
“Miss Walker, as a highly educated person, how can you casually say that others killed someone? The crimes of false accusation and defamation aren’t light either.” A trace of cold hostility flickered across Jake Smith’s serene, handsome face, making people feel sinister and dangerous with his ambiguous smile.
Molly opened her lips, her voice light as a feather: “Dr. Smith, are you protecting Isabelle Richardson because you like her?”
Jake Smith didn’t answer, the meaning in his eyes deepening.
“Unfortunately, she doesn’t appreciate it at all. She only likes Michael Gallagher.” At the mention of Michael Gallagher, Molly’s heart had become calm.
Compared to the big issue of avenging her grandmother, some people were not worth mentioning.
“I don’t know what you’re talking about.” Jake Smith still refused to give in.
Was he planning to play dumb till the end?
Molly hadn’t expected him to admit it at this point anyway.
She stood up, pulled out a business card the same way, and placed it on the table: “This is my card. It has my private number on it. If you change your mind, you can call me anytime. I’ll be able to answer.” Jake Smith glanced at the business card and remained silent.
Molly smiled, turned, and left.
This business card also had location tracking.
In fact, today’s outing wasn’t entirely fruitless, as it at least revealed Jake Smith’s relationship with the caregiver.
She edited a message on her cell phone: “Monitor Amelia Collins and Jake Smith’s every move, and when appropriate, place some recording devices in secret locations.”
Actually, the best method would be eavesdropping on the phone, but the “W Organization” cannot break the bottom line of the law. For example, the technology of breaking into a network, after breaking into the hospital last time, was discovered with a smiling warning by the upper-level figures of Orientopia. The organization was strong, but it still couldn’t override the state, and the technology of invading cell phones was even more difficult. After all, the manufacturers weren’t domestic, so implementing it was challenging.
After sending the message, she quickly deleted it. As she looked up, she saw Michael Gallagher’s retreating figure.
Molly walked towards Amanda Leaford’s hospital room, slightly stunned.
Inside the room, Michael Gallagher’s faint voice came through: “We will be responsible for Aunt’s medical expenses at the Gallagher family, all the way until she recovers.”
“You know what we care about isn’t just that. I want to know why did a vase fall from the sky and the surveillance… why wasn’t there any surveillance in the room?” Nicholas Thompson asked.
“That was a guest room.” Michael Gallagher replied faintly, his voice carrying a hint of apology, “I’m very sorry.”
Hearing his words, Molly suddenly became enlightened.
This was the first time she had heard Michael Gallagher apologize.
In fact, if this incident were really an accident, he couldn’t be blamed. But if it wasn’t an accident…
She touched the other cell phone in her pocket with a cold smile.
Seeing Nicholas Thompson and Joshua Thompson getting annoyed, Damian Thompson quickly tried to mediate: “This matter is too strange, so we have already called the police. We hope that the Gallagher family, including the servants, will cooperate with the police investigation.”
Hearing this, Gillian Thompson, who had been listening nearby, suddenly became nervous.
The police were involved…
She did not expect the Thompson family to be so suspicious.
It also indirectly showed that the Thompson family did not believe Isabelle Richardson’s words or her explanation.
The Thompson family would rather believe the results of the police Investigation.
She gritted her teeth, clenching her fist so tightly in anger her knuckles turned white.
Hearing the news of the police, Michael Gallagher nodded slightly: “That’s understandable.”
Seeing him acting so agreeably, Damian Thompson was not surprised. No matter what, all they wanted was an attitude from the Gallagher family. With Michael Gallagher being like this, it wouldn’t be right for them to blame him.
Hearing this, Molly lost interest in listening further, perhaps due to the air conditioning or heating, which made her feel a little suffocated and out of breath.
Considering the baby in her stomach, she quickly headed towards the elevator.
Just after she left, Joshua Thompson asked, “Is Isabelle Richardson’s child really yours?”
His straightforward question caused the room to become so quiet that even a pin dropping could be heard.
They had come to the hospital halfway through the banquet yesterday and hadn’t had a chance to hear Michael Gallagher’s statement about the child at the banquet.
Joshua Thompson’s eyes were filled with fierce aggression as if, with one wrong word from Michael Gallagher, he would pounce and beat him up.
Damian Thompson patted his back and said to Michael Gallagher, “Joshua has always been like this. Isabelle Richardson has already divorced you, and you two will have no more contact in the future. The child’s matter is your own business and doesn’t need to be explained to us.”
The meaning of his words was very clear. She had divorced Michael Gallagher, and there was no chance of getting back together in the future.
As for the child, they didn’t care either.
Michael Gallagher’s eyebrows knitted tightly.
He wanted to deny it because these people were Molly’s family.
Subconsciously, he didn’t want her family to misunderstand.
Just as he was about to tell the truth, Damian Thompson spoke again, “You are my sister’s ex-husband, and we have a question that doesn’t really concern you, but I still want to ask your opinion.”
“What do you think… about Jeremy Norman?”
Michael Gallagher was slightly surprised, his deep, unfathomable eyes questioning, “Why would you ask about him?”
“He has expressed his liking for Ivy a few times, and we have a good impression of him.” Damian Thompson’s eyes were filled with a full smile, “Since you and Ivy had spent years together, you also know her well. We just wanted to ask you, would they be compatible?”
Would they be compatible?
It felt like a knife to the heart.
Seeing Michael Gallagher’s face darken, Joshua Thompson couldn’t help but almost burst out laughing secretly on the side.
Experience is better than youth. Big brother, this old fox, wouldn’t make a move, and once he did, it hit hard..
