Chapter 393: Chapter 392: Can You Endure? Can’t Help It
“What exactly happened then? Was my nephew lost because of that bastard Michael Gallagher?” Joshua Thompson was emotionally charged as he took a deep breath, suppressing the underlying rage. “Rest assured, whatever you say today won’t be disclosed to anyone. We just want to be clear in our hearts.”
Jeremy Norman thought about it and his memories advanced to that day.
He squinted his eyes, slightly parted his lips, and said: “This matter does indeed have to do with Michael Gallagher.”
“Molly Walker had an argument with Michael Gallagher at the time. I wasn’t sure about the specifics. I only saw her fall while chasing after him.”
Had it not been for Michael Gallagher, Molly’s baby might have been saved.
“It really was him!” Joshua’s face turned green, “I knew it, this jerk, he had an illicit relationship with Isabelle Richardson, even after she divorced him, he came to harass her. Now he has caused the loss of my nephew.”
Joshua clenched his fist and tightly gritted his teeth, ready to burst out, but was stopped by Damian Thompson.
“Don’t stop me! I’m going to confront him now. Didn’t my sister treat him well! Why is he treating her this way?!”
Compared to Joshua’s rage, Damian was much calmer, lowering his voice to persuade: “The doctor said, Ivy’s baby was unstable from the start, forcibly preserving the fetus could harm her uterus. Now, losing the baby is not necessarily a bad thing.”
Since they had chosen to save the adult first, it signified that they had no fate with this child.
In a choice between the two, they would of course choose Ivy.
They could have another baby, but if they lost the adult, that would truly be a loss.
These words from Damian made Joshua stop in his tracks, his clenched fists trembling.
He knew, he understood it all.
If the baby could drop, it means there were defects in the embryo. It’s survival of the fittest, the baby had no destiny to meet with them from the start.
Despite the harshy reality, he still could not forgive Michael Gallagher.
This nephew of his could have ended in any way, but not by his father.
“Before Ivy wakes up, let’s not make decisions for her in advance.” Damian Thompson warned, glancing at Joshua, then nodded at Jeremy. “Mr. Norman, you mentioned earlier that Scarlett Jackson is also related to this?”
Jeremy Norman started, then nodded: “Molly was stopped by Scarlett Jackson while chasing after Michael Gallagher. I don’t know what was said. Before I could stop them, Molly clutched her stomach…”
“So, this matter is not entirely Michael Gallagher’s fault. It is very likely that Scarlett said something that upset Ivy?”
Jeremy Norman remained silent for a few seconds without responding.
If you were to say that Scarlett stimulated Molly, it makes sense, but ultimately the blame still lies with Michael Gallagher.
But the way Damian Thompson phrased it, it seemed to be protecting Michael Gallagher.
Jeremy Norman nodded in a seemingly calm manner, “In fact, I only saw the surface of the situation. What really happened, we will only know when Molly wakes up.”
Although by instigating the Thompson family against Michael Gallagher would make them despise him, he couldn’t do it.
He liked Molly, and even if he pursued her, it would be upright and open.
If Molly knew that he was speaking ill of Michael Gallagher behind his back, she would doubt his intentions and character.
He didn’t want Molly to think he was a despicable person.
“I only know that Molly was stopped by Scarlett Jackson while chasing after Michael Gallagher. I can’t say too much about the rest, for fear of distorting the facts.”
Upon hearing this, Amanda caught a vague hint of something.
Molly chased after Michael Gallagher, definitely because she had done something to upset him.
“Damian is right, everything we’re saying now is just speculation. We’ll ask her when Ivy wakes up. If Michael Gallagher really committed extremely repugnant actions, I won’t agree to their remarriage.”
Amanda’s beautiful face became more pallid.
A series of recent events had dealt her a heavy blow.
Thinking of Daniel Thompson and Phoebe’s affair, Amanda felt a heavy rock pressing on her heart.
Having such a father was truly tragic for their children.
And now their child has also met with a mishap.
“Ding-dong!”
Joshua Thompson’s cell phone rang.
He swiped his cell phone open and put it on speaker.
“Young master, Scarlett Jackson has been bailed out.”
Joshua Thompson’s face turned dark instantly: “Who bailed her out?”
“It’s…Mr. Gallagher.”
Joshua Thompson angrily clenched his cellphone, and glared at Damian Thompson: “Brother, he bailed Scarlett out. How much more are we supposed to put up with?”
“I think he has no intention of remarrying . He wants Ivy dead.”
Hearing the news that Michael Gallagher had bailed Scarlett Jackson out, Damian Thompson also frowned.
They couldn’t interfere with Michael Gallagher and Ivy’s affairs, but they absolutely could not let Scarlett Jackson go.
How could Michael Gallagher do such a thing?
“You might be able to tolerate it, but I can’t.” Seeing Damian Thompson not responding, Joshua Thompson gave a cold snort, picked up his coat and strode out.
He was going to confront Michael Gallagher personally, to see if he truly intended to oppose the entire Thompson family.
Molly Walker had been cut off, but Ivy hadn’t.
Now that Ivy had returned, they would protect her, pamper her, and not allow anyone to harm her.
In this world, anyone who wanted to harm Ivy would have to deal with his fists first.
Joshua Thompson left.
This time, Damian Thompson did not hold him back.
If he could hold him back before, but the moment he learned that Scarlett Jackson had been bailed out, he could not stop Joshua anymore.
Since Michael Gallagher had bailed Scarlett Jackson out, let Joshua Thompson question him.
He also wanted to know if Michael Gallagher had truly fallen in love elsewhere and had forgotten about his sister for the sake of his new love.
Jeremy Norman was surprised to hear that Scarlett Jackson had been bailed out.
He didn’t expect that Michael Gallagher had the audacity to bail out Scarlett Jackson.
Didn’t he know that Scarlett Jackson had dealt with his baby?
Jeremy Norman’s brow furrowed.
“Mr. Norman, thank you for bringing Ivy here. You can rest now. We can take care of her here.” Amanda Leaford gave him a polite smile.
Jeremy Norman knew that the Thompson family members still had the impression of him from his fake engagement with Molly Walker, and their intention for him to leave was likely to avoid suspicion.
Jeremy Norman nodded politely, looked deeply at Molly Walker, and said goodbye.
At the entrance of the obstetrics and gynecology department of the Capital City First People’s Hospital, Phoebe Belmont held the examination sheet and couldn’t help but ask the doctor over and over again: “Doctor, can I get the results today? You’re the chief of obstetrics and gynecology, do you think there’s a high probability that I’m pregnant?”
“The probability depends on the blood test results. I’m not a divine doctor. It’s not like looking at your face can determine whether you’re pregnant or not. If I were that powerful, I wouldn’t be a doctor. I’d be setting up a fortune-telling stall outside every day!”
The doctor’s words made other people couldn’t help but laugh.
“Miss, be patient, the results will be out soon.”
A gentle woman comforted her.
Phoebe Belmont’s face changed from pale to green, her expression was dazed, and she couldn’t sit still.
Her period was late, and she also had an upset stomach. After enduring it for a few days, she finally couldn’t help but come to the hospital for an examination.
Counting the time, her last period was exactly a month ago.
If she really was pregnant…
Phoebe Belmont clenched her sleeve and was so nervous that she couldn’t even breathe properly.
