Chapter 427: Chapter 424: Is he really that important?
She could accept Michael Gallagher’s rejection of the proposal, but she couldn’t accept that he sought Molly Walker’s advice.
To entrust her future to her love rival was a complete humiliation.
Molly’s eyes were crystal clear, and she glanced at Violet Summers, smiling at Michael, “She’s right. Harry Lambert is my friend, so of course I choose my friend.”
After saying that, her gaze lightly swept past Christopher Evans, with a slight smile on her lips and a cold light in the depth of her eyes.
She had thought that Christopher would demand a promotion, but it turned out that all he wanted was to eliminate rivals.
No wonder the organization would recruit Violet Summers in. It turned out that Christopher was the mole.
Hearing that Harry was her friend, Christopher couldn’t help but take a few more glances at her.
Harry Lambert was a strange character with few friends, so anyone who could become friends with him was not ordinary.
“No wonder Harry’s performance is so good. It turns out his financial backer is you,” Christopher said meaningfully.
Michael frowned as the term ‘financial backer’ was too harsh.
He hadn’t understood the reason for Molly’s close relationship with Harry Lambert before. If these matters were connected to the financial backer, everything would make sense.
“Mr. Jenkins, these are my only two requests. If you don’t agree, it can only mean that our philosophies don’t align,” Christopher’s tone was filled with heavy regret, “I thought neither of these requests would be challenging for Mr. Jenkins. Since it’s so difficult for you, I guess we can’t reach a consensus. However… I advise Mr. Jenkins that if you want to take over the ‘W’ organization, you’re bound to change the blood and offend a group of people. Harry Lambert is loyal to the current leadership. Even if you keep him, he won’t willingly work for you.”
“Mr. Jenkins, if you want to have the best of both worlds, I’m afraid that’s a luxury!”
After saying this, Christopher looked at Molly with a meaningful smile.
Molly listened calmly as water, giving a cold smile.
Christopher was very good at catching people’s pain points.
In just a few words, he had casually driven a wedge between her and Michael’s relationship.
“In that case…” She propped up her chin and winked at Michael, “You can decide for yourself. You don’t need to ask me.”
She would not agree to any of Christopher’s conditions.
Those were the partners who helped her build the organization together. Unless they made a big mistake, she would not give up on any of them.
“What if I only agree to the second condition?” Michael’s eyes darkened, his voice stiff, with an almost imperceptible hint of testing.
The second condition was to replace Harry Lambert.
Molly raised an eyebrow and smiled with a firm gaze: “Harry Lambert is my good friend.”
She knew that Michael was biased against Harry Lambert. She had considered dividing the “W” organization and even thought of returning it to her Master’s descendants, but she had never thought of letting No. 6 leave the organization.
No. 6 was an orphan, abandoned by his parents since childhood, and the organization was his home.
She couldn’t abandon the people who had gone through hardships with her.
No matter if it was No. 6, No. 4, or others, she would not let any of them be homeless.
She looked at Michael with determination: “If you want to take over the organization and harm him, I won’t stand idly by.”
It applied to him and to all of them.
She wouldn’t allow anyone to hurt those under her.
Michael’s Adam’s apple moved twice, and the hand by his side tightened slightly.
He silently looked at the girl in front of him, feeling more and more suffocated in his chest, as if being hit by a heavy hammer, causing severe pain.
“Does he matter that much?”
“Yes.” Molly didn’t hesitate, “Harry Lambert is my friend and even more, my family.”
Family…
The most important people in her heart.
From her various actions and practices, it was clear that she always put her family first.
She chose Harry Lambert over letting Michael take over the organization.
Michael tried his best to suppress jealousy and impulse towards Harry Lambert deep in his heart. The pain of the blade was stirring and swelling at his throat, filled with a fishy sweetness.
He didn’t care about money or power. If there was anything he cared about in this world, it was Molly.
He didn’t care about Edward Jenkins’ inheritance, nor did he care how powerful that organization was.
As long as he wanted, money and power were within his reach.
He wanted this organization because he didn’t want her to be at the mercy of others.
He didn’t expect that she would protect that person so much.
“Mr. Jenkins, she’s already said it’s up to you, so you should decide for yourself,” Scarlett Jackson, afraid he would agree to Molly’s terms, hurriedly walked over to remind him, “This organization originally belonged to you. You can do whatever you want. Mr. Evans is right, taking over this organization is bound to offend a group of people, and changing the blood is inevitable. Don’t be restricted by trivial matters. It’s not just Harry Lambert who needs to be replaced, it’s the entire senior executive team.”
Scarlett, knowing that Michael didn’t like her lately, still summoned the courage to say all that was in her heart.
How would she rise to the top if the “W” organization didn’t change its bloodline?
How would she cut off Ivy Thompson’s support without the change?
Christopher’s thoughts were her thoughts. Only in this way, could Mr. Jenkins gain a steady foothold, and she would soar while following him.
What happened to Olivia Sawyer made her realize that having money and connections is useless without power.
Even though her money was already enough for her to eat for several lifetimes, she had not enjoyed some privileges.
Though the “W” organization had little to do with the power of the upper-class in Orientopia, it had formed its own “power.”
The powerful connections of the organization were like a spider web, intertwined and deeply rooted, occupying important positions in various industries.
She must get back at Olivia Sawyer for the humiliation she suffered that day at the karaoke bar.
Didn’t she have the help of the organization’s Big Boss? Then she would seize the organization as well.
Even if Michael despised her now, it didn’t matter. If he wanted to smoothly take over the organization, he would have to be nice to her.
Only she knew how to take over the organization step by step.
“Mr. Jenkins, you have to think about the bigger picture. Harry Lambert really can’t stay.”
Michael didn’t speak, his face was cold, his tight jawline outlined an invulnerable momentum, and the coldness emanating from his body was impossible to ignore.
Seeing that Michael didn’t express his stance, Christopher slowly walked to the door.
Just as his hand touched the door handle to leave, Michael’s voice rang out: “I agree to your conditions.”
Molly furrowed her brow, clenched her fist, her nails digging into her palms, her heart like being stabbed by needles.
“Great! Mr. Jenkins has courage. I watched your television interview before, and I felt that you were no ordinary person. Now it seems that you indeed have guts,” Christopher laughed heartily.
His condition seemed reasonable, but in practice, it was difficult to implement.
If Mr. Jenkins didn’t give him enough benefits, he wouldn’t take that risk either.
Only when Mr. Jenkins’ thoughts aligned with his could the plan succeed.
Christopher admired his courage and was delighted with his decision.
Molly glanced at Michael, her brows knitted in a “river.”
She initially intended to tell Michael about her identity after meeting Christopher.
But now, she hesitated.
