The Ex-husband Wants to Get Power Every Day After the Divorce

Chapter 467: 464: You Are Not My Relative

Chapter 467: Chapter 464: You Are Not My Relative
“I don’t need your help. I’m friends with Molly, and she said she’d help me…”

“Ah, don’t be like that.” Michael Gallagher approached him, his long arm swinging and resting on his shoulder, “We’ve known each other for many years now, and although we aren’t exactly best friends, we’re still brothers. So feel free to come to me if you need anything, instead of bothering her.”

Michael Gallagher’s eyes were smiling, but there was a hint of warning in his words.

“Isn’t it just that your family’s facing some difficulties? Leave it to me. Rest assured, brother, I’ll sort it out for you within two days.”

Michael Gallagher patted his shoulder, his words crisp and clear.

Jeremy Norman hooked his lips and smiled lightly, “Michael Gallagher, are you really that afraid of Molly helping me?”

“Molly is the Boss of ‘W’, she indeed could help me, but what about you? In what capacity would you help me? As the second heir of the Gallagher family, or the second heir of the Jenkins family?”

“She’s the boss of ‘W’, and I am the man of the boss of ‘W’.” Michael Gallagher’s eyes darkened, and a pleasant curve formed at his lips.

Jeremy Norman: “…”

“What she can help with, I can too. What she can’t help with, I can also help.” Michael Gallagher crossed his arms and glanced at him, “Alright, that’s it. I have important things to do with her.”

At that point, his tone paused, and he went over to Molly and took her hand, “Don’t worry, your friend’s business is my business. From now on, you don’t need to worry about his affairs, I’ll handle them.”

His voice was just loud enough for Jeremy Norman to hear.

Molly glanced at Jeremy Norman, hesitating to say something but holding back.

In the end, she gently responded with a single, “Mm.”

Since Michael Gallagher had said he’d help, it meant he would do it.

Jeremy stood there, his eyes on the retreating figures of the two, feeling somewhat lonely.

At last, he let out a soft, sarcastic laugh.

…

When they entered the villa, Michael Gallagher closed the door, looking somewhat annoyed.

“Try to have less contact with him in the future. If there’s anything you need, I’ll handle it.”

After all, he was a romantic rival. He and Molly hadn’t remarried since their divorce, and someone might try to steal her away at any time.

Jeremy Norman was a tough man to deal with, and Michael had to be cautious.

“He and I are just friends.” Molly was a little incredulous.

She knew Michael Gallagher was wary of Jeremy Norman, especially since she and Jeremy had almost “married” in the past.

“It’s more than just a friendship.” Michael Gallagher’s eyes darkened, “He still has your blood flowing in his body.”

Thinking about it, clouds seemed to seethe at the bottom of Michael Gallagher’s eyes, as if covered with ice.

No matter how big of a favor, the fact that she had given blood was already enough, he was merely upset that he hadn’t discovered it earlier, perhaps preventing her from losing blood unnecessarily.

Molly stayed silent.

She knew that Michael Gallagher had always been upset about this.

Upon careful thought, if it were her, she probably wouldn’t be able to accept Michael Gallagher giving blood to another woman, either.

Even if she were his friend.

“I’m sorry.” Molly apologized, lowering her head.

Michael Gallagher gently scraped her nose and uttered in a low voice, “Don’t let it happen again.”

“There’s no one in this world worth giving up your body for in exchange for repaying debts, not even me.”

“I want you to be healthy and live a long life.”

At such tender words, Molly’s nose tingled with emotion.

It wasn’t because she was being sentimental, but because only her grandmother and he had ever said such words to her in this life.

A kiss fell on her eyes, and before long, things got out of hand.

…

Early the next morning, Nicholas Thompson got everything ready and went to the coffee shop.

“You’re looking for me?”

Alone with Molly, it seemed as if they were back when she first arrived at the Thompson family home.

At that time, he accompanied her to buy clothes and attended the Thompson family dinner together.

At that time, his relationship with Molly Walker had not reached the freezing point, and there was even a hint of it thawing.

However, later on, things did not go as planned, and their relationship ended up being worse than that of ordinary friends.

Until today, when Molly took the initiative to meet with him.

“About Gillian’s issue last time…”

“Nicholas Thompson,” Molly coldly interrupted him, “Gillian is your sister, and Jeremy Norman is my friend. I don’t want you to use Gillian’s issue to make deals with him again, or else, don’t blame me for being impolite.”

“Impolite…” Nicholas Thompson sneered softly, “How do you plan to be impolite to me?”

“Ivy Thompson, I’m at least your second brother, right? How come now even Jeremy Norman ranks higher than me?”

“He is your friend, but I’m not your relative?”

“No.” Molly responded coldly, “In my heart, you are inferior to Jeremy Norman.”

The atmosphere was as silent as death.

He expected her to be cold, but not this cold.

Nicholas Thompson chuckled lightly, with dark clouds gathering in his eyes. He clenched his fists tightly and said, “I know you don’t like me, and I don’t expect you to treat me as your second brother. Back when Jeremy Norman’s relationship with you was ambiguous, I never thought of setting him up with Gillian, but now that you and Jeremy Norman are impossible, what, do you still want to have a foot in both boats?”

With a “slap” sound, Molly put down the coffee in her hand, spilling it all over the table.

“Nicholas Thompson, search your conscience. If you want to bring Gillian and Jeremy Norman together, is it to fulfill a destined couple or create a begrudged one? Gillian has someone she likes already. If she knew you were plotting other men for her, she would probably be unwilling, right?”

Nicholas Thompson frowned, “Gillian is still young, she only knows that love is enough to keep her full, not knowing that reality is more important when love and reality come together.”

Molly sneered coldly, “Having a brother like you, I really don’t know if I should pity Gillian or feel sorry for her.”

“You can introduce other people to Gillian, but don’t even think about getting your hands on Jeremy Norman.”

“Especially not letting Gillian be with him. I won’t turn a blind eye to you ruining my friend’s life.”

“Ruining…” Nicholas Thompson’s face visibly darkened, “Ivy Thompson, don’t forget how Gillian’s leg got injured.”

“Of course, I know how her leg got injured. You know too, right? She jumped off the mountain herself. But, what does this have to do with me?”

“Nicholas Thompson, my tolerance towards you has limits. Being able to treat you as air is because we share the same mother, it doesn’t mean you can do whatever you want in my world.”

“In my heart, you are no different from Michael Gallagher’s brother. In fact, I despise you even more.”

After saying this, Molly stood up, not wanting to say another word, and turned to leave.

Seeing her like this, Nicholas Thompson’s eyes dimmed.

Before coming to see his sister today, he had thought of mending their relationship.

But in the end, they still parted on bad terms.

Xavier Gallagher, Michael Gallagher’s brother, was an out-and-out big villain.

He even became synonymous with a “wicked big brother.”

If someone said their brother was like Xavier Gallagher, it would be the ultimate hatred towards their brother.

Watching Molly leave, Nicholas Thompson had a premonition that this might be the last time he chats with her alone.

From now on, she may really never intersect with him again.

Actually, ever since she arranged a job for Gillian, he wanted to express his gratitude to her.

He took out the small gift from his bag, his hand trembling slightly.

Finally, not knowing what he thought of, he still chased after her.

“Hey, wait! Wait!”

“Fourth Sister! Ivy Thompson!”

Molly, who had walked outside, stopped for a moment, but eventually left without looking back.

Nicholas Thompson didn’t give up and quickly caught up.

Just then, a motorcycle raced past, snatching the item from his hand.

Soon after, Nicholas Thompson realized that he had encountered a motorcycle thief.

Unexpectedly, there were motorcycle thieves even in the well-policed Capital City!
