The man gently “hmm” in response, his warm tongue recklessly invading her mouth, greedily lingering for a moment before gradually releasing her.
The two embraced for a while, Molly Walker gently pushed him away, her face slightly flushed.
“What exactly is your relationship with Scarlett Jackson?” Scarlett’s background still made her a bit wary.
“My grandfather wants me to be with her.” Michael Gallagher’s deep eyes showed no emotion, “Aside from him, no one else has any intention.”
Molly went silent.
Mr. Jenkins’ character was indeed annoying, she looked at Michael, hesitating to speak.
“Do you have a good relationship with your father?”
“Which father?”
“Edward Jenkins.”
“Not good.” Michael’s eyes held a hint of ridicule.
He had only met this man a few times, and each time they met, he hoped to live his life according to his own way. He still remembered Edward’s last words to him, “Do you know why I gave birth to your younger brother? Because I know you won’t obey.”
What was funny was that he really did give birth to an obedient silly younger brother, Jerry Jenkins.
Seeing Michael’s gaze filled with coldness, Molly stuttered, “Actually, there are not many parents in the world who don’t want their children to be successful. Your father, he ”
“What about Daniel Thompson?”
Molly’s breath caught, her words stuck in her throat, unable to come up or go down.
“Daniel Thompson is a rare case.”
She didn’t understand why Daniel was so friendly to the fake Ivy but so awkward to herself. Later, she realized that for many people, face was the most important.
If he treated her well, Daniel would be slapping his own face. Therefore, he was more willing to believe in a fortune teller, so he had a reason to convince himself.
“Having kind and understanding parents is a luxury for me.” Michael’s words carried a hint of desolation.
In the Jenkins family’s conference room, after Michael and Molly left, the Thompson family also prepared to leave.
Mr. Jenkins watched the Thompson family leave, his face slightly sinking.
These people were not like the Leaford family; the Thompson family’s wealth and power were much larger than the Leaford’s. Offending the Thompson family would not bring any benefits to the Jenkins family.
“Hold on.” Mr. Jenkins stopped them, gestured to the servant with his eyes, and the servant understood, taking out some gifts from the nearby cabinet.
“I heard that Mr. Thompson is ill, but I am not well enough to visit him. These gifts represent my goodwill ”
Looking at the ginseng and lingzhi mushrooms in the servant’s hands, Damian Thompson showed no expression, while Joshua Thompson chuckled out loud.
It was like slapping someone’s face and then giving them candy; he couldn’t stand Mr. Jenkins’ calculations.
In truth, Mr. Jenkins daring to treat the Thompson family this way today was due to hearing that Daniel Thompson’s days were numbered.
The CEO of a company getting dementia was a fatal blow in both the stock market and the business battlefield.
If the Thompson family had a successor, it would be fine, but if not, the entire Thompson family might decline.
In comparison, the Jackson family was naturally the best choice.
Even if the “W” organization belonged to Ivy Thompson, he wasn’t afraid of an employee in an organization.
The organization’s predecessor also had some connections with his son, but that’s another story.
“Mr. Jenkins, we don’t need these gifts. If Daniel knew what you said today, he would probably throw these things right back at your face.” Amanda Leaford coldly refused.
After slapping someone’s face, you should see whether this person wanted the candy or not.
Hearing this, Mr. Jenkins was not angry but smiled kindly, “Your Mr. Thompson is already sick, how can he still throw anything? Speaking of which, you should be discreet now that the CEO of the Thompson family is ill, it will affect the stock prices ”
“Thank you for your concern, the company is now managed by my son, not Daniel.” Amanda Leaford’s graceful face was radiant, “The stock prices will not be affected, the Thompson family now fears no one.”
It was a warning as well as a reminder.
After Daniel Thompson fell ill, Damian Thompson immediately took over the company.
If Mr. Jenkins thought the Thompson Group and the Leaford family were the same, then he was wrong.
Unexpectedly, a CEO’s wife could be so tough, Mr. Jenkins squinted his eyes and looked at Damian Thompson beside him, “I didn’t expect the Thompson family to change hands so quickly.”
He had already figured out that the Thompson family was here to show their support for Ivy today.
Seeing Mr. Jenkins like this, Damian Thompson didn’t bother being polite anymore.
“We come today only for the sake of Michael Gallagher. You don’t want Ivy to connect with him, and we don’t want to connect with the Jenkins family either. If Michael changes his last name to Jenkins, not only will Ivy not acknowledge him, but neither will we as our brother-in-law.”
Before, Mr. Jenkins had said that if the child’s last name was not Jenkins, then the two couldn’t get married. Now, they had made their stance clear.
If Michael’s last name was Jenkins, he couldn’t be their brother-in-law.
Unexpectedly, the tables turned, and Mr. Jenkins was livid.
“You have a lot of confidence for such an old age.” Joshua Thompson sneered, “Can’t you see that it’s your grandson who is head over heels in love? You really think that having the Jenkins surname is like having gold?”
Hearing this, Mr. Jenkins trembled with anger, clutching his chest, and suddenly his eyes closed.
“Mr. Jenkins!”
“Grandpa Jenkins!”
Scarlett Jackson rushed in from outside the door, supporting Mr. Jenkins and saying to the bodyguard standing nearby, “Call the family doctor over, and also the police; today, no one is allowed to leave.”
“If anything happens to Mr. Jenkins, these people must be held responsible.”
Unexpectedly, Mr. Jenkins was so fragile; Joshua Thompson and the others stood there, looking at each other, and their faces immediately turned ugly.
This was like being stuck with a dog skin plaster.
After all, it was a human life at stake; in the end, they could only wait.
In the next room, Michael Gallagher and Molly Walker were chatting when the doorbell rang.
Outside the door, Scarlett Jackson’s voice was anxious, “Mr. Jenkins, your grandfather has just fainted from anger because of the Thompson family. He’s being rescued now. Please come out and take a look.”
Hearing this, Molly’s face turned pale, and she quickly stood up.
Michael grabbed her hand, “Let’s go together.”
Molly nodded.
Seeing her worried look, Michael pursed his lips, “Don’t worry, it’ll be fine.”
Molly’s lips curled up, with her grandfather in trouble, but comforting her instead, she didn’t know whether to call him calm or carefree.
Seeing the two of them walking out together, Scarlett Jackson’s pupils trembled but quickly masked it, “The doctor is still rescuing him. I don’t know what will happen. It’s the first time I’ve seen my grandfather so angry. I just called the police, and the police will be here soon ”
“Call the police ” Michael knit his brows, his tone cold, “Why did you call the police?”
Hearing the words “call the police,” Molly’s face also cooled down.
A lot of things, once exposed to the public, are hard to wind down.
“The Thompson family caused Grandpa Jenkins to faint; shouldn’t we call the police?” Scarlett Jackson lowered her eyes with an aggrieved expression, “What if something happens to him and the culprits run away?”
