Chapter 486: Chapter 481: Difficult to Restrain
Looking at Michael Gallagher blatantly blocking the way, Molly Walker felt rather helpless.
“How did you get here?”
He had clearly told her that he couldn’t make it today because he had something to do, but now he suddenly appeared.
“I pushed aside what I was doing; being with you is more important.” The always self-possessed man suddenly gripped her hand tightly and turned to look at Jeremy Norman, “You were just staring at Olivia Sawyer.”
Michael Gallagher’s deep eyes looked at Olivia Sawyer’s back, and he said indifferently, “You can’t force emotions, but don’t miss out either. Not everyone is as lucky as me, able to win back the one they yearn for.”
As if thinking of something, Michael Gallagher lowered his eyelashes, and his pupils trembled.
It was at this moment that a warmth spread through his palm.
It was Molly.
Her soft hand was squeezed into a small fist, slowly placed into his palm.
The warmth spread from his palm to his entire body, stirring the chord deep in his heart.
Michael Gallagher could no longer restrain himself, grasped her hand, and led her to the room next door.
It was a single bedroom.
Molly Walker’s heart pounded wildly.
Michael Gallagher led her in, closed the door, and his deep and affectionate eyes fell on her eyes, her nose, and her lips.
“Michael…”
Suddenly, a warm embrace pressed upon her.
Michael Gallagher embraced her.
And that was all he did.
He buried his head in her neck, his slender fingers slipped into the roots of her hair, afraid of hurting her, and unconsciously changed into a stroking movement.
“I can’t remain calm when I see him with you.” He obediently rubbed his cheek against her neck like a helpless little animal, “I’m afraid you’ll go back to his side…”
“I’ve lost everything… I can’t lose you again.”
Hearing his words, the calmness in Molly Walker’s heart gradually turned into softness.
“I know… I won’t leave you.”
She lost the Gu family and then lost the Jin family again.
How could she not mind?
After all, they were blood relatives.
Just like Daniel Thompson and Nicholas Thompson, no matter how much she disliked them, she couldn’t treat them as enemies.
The relationship of kinship is very peculiar; it can easily forgive and let go, but the scars won’t fade with time, instead etching an eternal mark in the heart.
“Really?” Michael Gallagher’s eyes widened slightly, completely unlike his usual indifference.
This careful appearance made Molly Walker chuckle. She hooked her arm around Michael Gallagher’s neck and whispered in his ear, “Yes, really. You can always ask me, Michael Gallagher, I won’t leave you unless… you don’t want me anymore.”
Her voice was gentle, exhaling a warm and soft breath that tickled his ear like feathers.
He hummed in response, stretched out his hand to press her wrist, slowly but forcefully pinning her against the wall.
At the moment their lips met, Molly Walker’s eyes widened. A loud “boom” echoed in her ears.
“I’ll never not want you.” Michael Gallagher’s soft lips fell on her lower lip, gently caressing with devotion and faith, “Even if I don’t want myself, I’ll never not want you.”
Molly Walker curved her lips, her playful tongue quickly taking the initiative.
In just an instant, things got out of control…
Michael Gallagher lifted her waist, his eyes burning with intense flames, feeling a wave of heat rushing through him and spreading to every inch of his body.
…
Outside the door, bodyguards stood not far from the entrance.
Scarlett Jackson walked over with a tearful Bonnie Lewis.
“That Ivy Thompson is really wicked; why did you mess with her?”
The moment Scarlett Jackson received Bonnie Lewis’s help call, she hurried over.
Although her circle of acquaintances in the entertainment industry was wide, it was rare to find someone with as good resources and a close relationship with her as Bonnie Lewis.
As soon as she arrived, she chatted briefly with the bodyguards, and they rescued Bonnie Lewis from her awkward situation.
“I had no idea she was Ivy Thompson. I just wanted to teach Olivia Sawyer a lesson, but I didn’t know they were all in on it.” Thinking of something, Bonnie Lewis’s face swelled with anger, “Besides, it seems like Old man Shen has an unusual relationship with Ivy Thompson.”
“Old man Shen?” Scarlett Jackson laughed, “How is that possible? Don’t you remember, Ivy Thompson was eliminated in a competition organized by Mr. Crane. Everyone thought she must have offended him then, otherwise, there’s no reason she wouldn’t have even made it to the qualifying rounds.”
“If they had a relationship, they wouldn’t have let Ivy be humiliated.”
“That’s true, but…” Bonnie Lewis thought of Zhang Yafan’s attitude and didn’t know whether to tell Scarlett Jackson or not.
“Scarlett, if she really has a relationship with Old man Shen, you…”
“Impossible!” Scarlett Jackson interrupted her, adamantly saying, “If she has a relationship with Stephen Crane, I’ll take her last name.”
When Scarlett Jackson said this, she had some emotion in her voice, and as soon as it came out, the surrounding atmosphere instantly became frighteningly quiet.
Everyone gave her their attention.
Embarrassment appeared on Scarlett Jackson’s face.
Those words just now were just out of anger; no one should be paying attention to her, right?
“Would you take her last name Thompson or Walker?”
Suddenly, Olivia Sawyer’s voice sounded, blocking her every escape.
Scarlett Jackson’s breathing halted, and her eyes fell directly on Olivia Sawyer.
Today’s Olivia Sawyer was wearing a blue-green silk long dress, with a fluffy shawl wrapped around her shoulders, making her look even more noble.
Mesmerizing and chic, especially that playful expression, both sexy and enchanting.
She stepped on ten-centimeter-long high heels, clacking towards Scarlett Jackson.
“Say it, what’s your bet? We’ll gamble together.”
Thinking that Scarlett Jackson was going to be slapped in the face, Olivia Sawyer couldn’t help but feel excited.
In just this short time, Zhang Yafan had already briefly introduced herself.
Zhang Yafan didn’t hide Ivy’s relationship with Mr. Crane from her.
Because tomorrow, Mr. Crane was going to announce to the whole world that Molly Walker was his heir.
Although there had been rumors floating around before, no one believed them.
These people, like Scarlett Jackson, felt that Mr. Crane didn’t value Molly Walker much. If he did, he wouldn’t have stopped her from participating in the finals.
Seeing Olivia Sawyer’s confident appearance, Scarlett Jackson’s eyelids jumped heavily.
“What do you want to bet?”
Bonnie Lewis was about to stop Scarlett Jackson, but it was too late.
But at this moment, if Scarlett Jackson backed down, she would lose face completely.
Recalling the humiliation she had suffered, Bonnie Lewis gritted her teeth and said, “I’ll join Scarlett Jackson in this bet.”
“Alright,” Olivia Sawyer could hardly resist clapping her hands, “If Ivy Walker has nothing to do with Mr. Crane, I’ll take your last names. If they do have a relationship, you two… will change your last names.”
Once Olivia Sawyer put it that way, Scarlett Jackson knew that some things couldn’t be changed.
Changing one’s last name may not have important consequences, but the loss of face matters a lot more.
Molly Walker stood on Olivia Sawyer’s side, which meant that Olivia Sawyer already had the “W” organization behind her. If Mr. Crane were to join their side as well-
Not to mention her, even the most powerful people in the entertainment circle combined would not have as powerful of a background as Olivia Sawyer’s.
She was already engaged to Jerry Jenkins, and her family’s company was saved, but she couldn’t lose face in the entertainment circle.
Molly Walker didn’t know that her relationship with Mr. Crane had become a bet for others.
The door to the single bedroom opened.
Molly Walker came out from the door.
They finally managed to restrain themselves.
Even if something were to happen, it shouldn’t be here.
Michael Gallagher also knew that many things could not be expressed here.
They couldn’t make any noise or open their hearts completely.
Before Molly Walker could steady herself, he grabbed her hand and walked out.
“Hey, where are we going?” Molly’s heart clenched.
“Villa.”
