Translator: 549690339
Hearing the words “Molly”, Molly Walker clenched her fist and placed it on her lips, coughing in embarrassment.
When the kid met her for the first time, he called her “big aunt”, and now he called her “Molly”, the treatment indeed improved significantly.
As for the secret he mentioned, she didn’t take it seriously.
Bailey Gallagher seemed afraid that she would not agree, and added, “It’s about my mom.”
Isabelle Richardson?
Molly’s expression tightened, wanting to continue asking, but saw him running into the school with his small backpack.
Molly smiled helplessly. Since the little guy mentioned Isabelle Richardson, she really had to make a trip to see her at night.
After sending off Bailey, she went straight to the hospital.
Lana Lewis was still in the hospital, and Molly wanted to see if there was anything she could help with.
Thinking of what the doctor said at the time, Molly’s eyebrows were tightly knitted.
The doctor said that her mother-in-law had late-stage cancer and it would be difficult for her to make it to the New Year.
There were only a few months left before the New Year.
A gust of wind blew over, and she suddenly felt cold from head to toe.
When she arrived at the hospital, she went straight to the front desk, intending to ask about Lana Lewis’s hospital room when she saw a familiar figure walking towards the escalator.
It was Michael Gallagher.
His steps were messy, and he looked very anxious.
Without thinking too much, Molly followed him onto the escalator.
There were people coming and going in the hospital, Michael Gallagher’s temperament was outstanding, and he was good-looking. The people on the escalator kept glancing at him.
He was already taller than most men, wearing a long custom windbreaker, standing there, he was quite a scenery.
Molly held her breath and followed him, afraid that he would find out she was there.
However, he had no time to pay attention to the people around him and never looked back. When he entered a hospital room, she followed him in.
In the hospital room, many doctors and experts were standing. The chief physician was the dean of the hospital, who was best at treating cancer-related diseases.
“Mr. Gallagher, we found that during the rescue process, the patient didn’t have much desire to live. You know, the psychological state of cancer patients is very important. Family members must pay more attention to the patient’s mood. We have seen patients without the desire to live, most of them are afraid of spending money and eager to die, but with your condition, this situation really shouldn’t happen…”
As the doctor took notes, he explained Lana Lewis’s condition.
Michael Gallagher stood to the side, listening with furrowed brows and a hint of anger in his dark eyes.
Uncle Leaford said that his mother suddenly fell ill after talking with Molly. At that time, Molly asked to get out of the car and didn’t know what she said to her mother before she fell ill.
He knew Lana Lewis and understood that although she had looked down on many things since she became ill, she still had a desire to live.
She couldn’t let go of Bailey Gallagher or the Gallagher family.
She had been fine before, so why did she suddenly lose her will to live?
Molly asked to speak to her mother privately, obviously to avoid Bailey Gallagher and Uncle Leaford.
What exactly did she say to her mother?
Considering Molly’s recent tactics and background, Michael Gallagher’s lips were tightly pressed into a line, jaw clenched and cold as frost.
When the doctor left, Molly came in.
She couldn’t hear the doctor’s words clearly from a distance, so she rushed to
Michael Gallagher’s side and asked, “How is Aunt doing?”
Michael Gallagher’s eyes fell on her, cold as ice, “The doctor said she has no will to live.”
“What did you say to her after you got out of the car?”
Molly was startled and said in confusion, “I didn’t say anything…”
She just told her she was pregnant, so why did that make her mother-in-law lose her will to live?
Thinking of some things Lana Lewis had said, she furrowed her brows.
Her mother-in-law said she would no longer interfere in Isabelle Richardson’s affairs and that she would have no regrets in death as long as Michael Gallagher had an heir.
At that time, she thought her mother-in-law was just making a casual remark, not realizing that she was truly planning to let go of everything and seeking death wholeheartedly.
Most patients in the late stage of cancer suffer physically, and although her mother-in-law didn’t show any signs, perhaps she could no longer bear it.
Molly Walker’s heart sank heavily, her face filled with regret.
If she had known earlier, she wouldn’t have said anything.
“Uncle Leaford said that after you talked to my mom, you didn’t seem quite right once you got in the car,” Michael Gallagher looked at her somewhat regretful expression, his eyes terrifyingly deep.
In the past, he might have believed that Molly would not harm his mother, but ever since he found out about her extraordinary background, everything she did seemed dubious.
Thinking of how she had deliberately approached and tried to please him after marriage, Michael Gallagher’s heart felt as if it was being stabbed by needles. As Molly Walker’s heart trembled under Michael Gallagher’s harsh gaze, an unprecedented pain wrapped around her heart.
Michael Gallagher doubted her again.
“Aunt has been very kind to me, and I would never do anything to let her down in my life,” Molly Walker scoffed with a bitter expression in her heart.
Even after what her mother-in-law had done before, she was sad but didn’t hold a grudge against her.
Compared to the care she had received from her mother-in-law in the past three years, those things were trivial.
But she did regret telling her mother-in-law the truth about her pregnancy.
Her head drooped, her face full of regret, and she looked somewhat pitiful.
Michael Gallagher gave her a faint glance, about to warn her when a voice calling “Michael” interrupted everything.
Hearing her mother-in-law’s voice, Molly Walker quickly walked over to her and asked, “How are you feeling? Is there any discomfort?”
Lana Lewis forced herself to smile: “I’m fine, don’t worry, I’m not going to die just yet.”
After saying this, she looked at Michael Gallagher and said, “Don’t blame
Molly, she didn’t do anything to me. I just don’t want to live anymore.”
Hearing their conversation just now, she feared that the relationship between Michael Gallagher and Molly would worsen, so she had forced herself to wake up.
“If it weren’t for Molly helping me send Bailey away, my life wouldn’t have been saved. I’m struggling now, and instead of enduring this illness, it’s better to die sooner. I just want relief.”
Lana Lewis sighed melancholically, which startled Molly.
Guessing was one thing, but hearing her mother-in-law say she wanted to die was another thing altogether.
“Don’t think like that,” Molly held her hand, hesitating to speak.
Seeing Molly so worried about her, Lana Lewis smiled in relief.
From the bottom of her heart, she liked this daughter-in-law and regretted the things she had done to her a while ago.
Fate was always mysterious; she never expected that Molly was actually the lost child of the Thompson family.
Thinking of Michael Gallagher’s attitude towards Molly earlier and her own fading life, she suddenly had an idea.
She beckoned Michael Gallagher: “Michael, come here.”
Michael Gallagher obeyed and walked over. Lana Lewis took his hand and stacked it on top of Molly’s hand.
Molly was incredibly surprised and tried to pull away, but Lana Lewis clamped her hand tightly.
Feeling the warmth of the soft palm in his hand, Michael Gallagher pursed his lips and gave her a faint glance.
With just that glance, Molly’s heart raced.
His palm was very hot. The scalding sensation spread through her palm and directly flushed her cheeks.
She didn’t dare to move, sitting stiffly.
“Some misunderstandings are due to be resolved,” Lana Lewis’s gentle gaze fell on the overlapping hands of the two.
Molly’s heart skipped a beat, suddenly having a bad feeling..
