Chapter 97: Chapter 97: She is Gillian Thompson, not just anyone’s daughter
Translator: 549690339
She triumphantly spun around, making Gillian Thompson’s face flushed with embarrassment.
Five years ago, they found her, asserting that they were her biological parents. For fear of the Thompson family discovering, she had only dared to communicate with them in private these past few years.
No matter what the Thompson family thought, her biological parents
absolutely couldn’t show their faces.
She was the fifth young lady of the Thompson family, she was Gillian Thompson, not some random daughter of a nobody.
“That’s enough, my mommy is wearing the genuine version, yours is counterfeit. It’s so embarrassing. Hurry up and change your clothes.”
She looked at her father, sure enough, the clothes he was wearing had also been worn by Daniel Thompson, and likewise they were all knockoffs.
Even though she had given them money, their aspirations were still so low. They could only afford counterfeits; they were not even worth being called class-A imitations.
Thinking about the character of her parents, Gillian Thompson regretted being born to them.
Seeing her parent’s average appearance and the man’s short and chubby stature, she wished she could be reborn.
Before she had plastic surgery, her appearance was identical to theirs, so identical that no DNA test was even needed.
Seeing Gillian Thompson looking down on them, a flicker of embarrassment crossed Lily Turner’s face. She quickly took out a bag of eggs and a variety of local products from her snakeskin bag: “Knowing that you were injured, your grandmother insisted 1 bring farm-fresh eggs over. Gillian, this is our goodwill…”
“Enough!” Gillian Thompson cut them off, not even bothering to look at these things, disgustingly said, “Now that you have seen enough, you can leave, right?”
Lily Turner who just came in confidently and proudly was left standing aimlessly, Xander Moore quickly said: “Gillian, your mom and I came because we were worried about you. Your words are so harsh, even harsher than your younger brother…”
Gillian Thompson picked up a water bottle beside her and threw it fiercely, “Get out!”
She picked up everything within her reach and hurled it. When she wanted to pick up the cell phone on the ground after exhausting all other items, she forgot that her legs were not normal anymore, and she fell off the bed.
Pain spread from her body to her heart. Gillian Thompson stared at the cell phone that lay a bit far from her, and all of a sudden, she burst into heart-wrenching sobs.
Lily Turner who was outside the door heard this cry and could not help but shed tears as well.
“Mr. Moore, I heard that the Thompson family has already found their child.
Can we then take our daughter back?”
Xander Moore glanced inside the door and said in a low voice, “The Thompson family doesn’t know about our existence, and Gillian won’t allow us to say it.
Let’s not mention this matter anymore.”
“But…”
Lily Turner wanted to say more, but Xander Moore gave her a stern look, stopping her mid-sentence.
She clutched the corner of her clothes, her eyes flashing with a deep sense of resentment.
At the entrance of the Public Security Bureau, Isabelle Richardson, looking devastated, was being helped out.
Not far away, a low-key yet luxurious Porsche coupe was parked.
Seeing this car, Isabelle’s eyes brightened. It was as if she suddenly gained strength. She pushed away the person supporting her and ran towards the car.
The car door opened just in time, revealing Samuel Richardson’s face.
“Daddy.” Isabelle Richardson’s eyes dripped with tears of joy.
She thought that she had been abandoned by the Richardson family. She didn’t expect that they would still find a way to rescue her.
They hadn’t given up on her!
She could continue to be an heiress of the Richardson family!
Thinking of Molly Walker, Isabelle couldn’t hide the hatred flashing in her eyes.
It was all because of Molly Walker!
Now that Molly Walker had turned against her, she better not blame her for being vicious in the future.
She lowered her head, concealing the hatred in her eyes.
Samuel Richardson looked at his daughter, who appeared to be worn out even though she had only been in there for a day. His gaze was filled with complicated emotions.
He had originally wanted to give up on her, after all, he had more children than just Isabelle.
Yet, unexpectedly, the child called Bailey Gallagher had found him.
The child obviously had the blood of the Gallagher family.
He was both shocked and delighted.
“Isabelle, why didn’t you tell me about the baby?” Samuel’s voice was flat, but it sent shivers down Isabelle’s spine,
Isabelle trembled all over, shaking like a sifter.
She knew what Samuel Richardson’s words meant.
Although he hadn’t hit her in nearly a year, it didn’t mean that he had
changed his ways and would never “discipline” her again.
Isabelle’s face turned pale, her smile rigid: “Daddy, how do you know about this?”
“He came to me himself, despite his young age, he is intelligent, and knew to come find me to save you.”
Isabelle never dared to lie in front of him, she had never expected that she would give birth to a child outside and keep it a secret for five years.
As the child is growing up, he is becoming more independent.
Samuel Richardson smiled meaningfully: “If you had told me, I would have definitely stood up for you. Hiding it from me all this time, don’t you trust me?”
“How could I not trust my own father? After what happened, the Gallagher family developed a negative impression of me. If they found out I was pregnant, I would only be ridiculed and they wouldn’t accept me.” She paused, “But now is the best time for the child to come out.’
Indeed, it was the best time.
Now that Michael Gallagher has divorced, if the matter of the child comes out, he will have to marry her.
“The Thompson family plans to collaborate with the Gallagher family.” Samuel Richardson reminded her.
Isabelle didn’t show any emotion on her face.
The moment the police came to her, she knew that the collaboration was over.
“Daddy, where is Bailey now?” “Lana Lewis took him.”
What?
Isabelle’s face suddenly changed.
“Lana’s memory has been restored.” Samuel’s tone was leisurely, insinuating something else.
He already knew about Lana’s memory loss.
If it wasn’t for her memory issues, Michael probably wouldn’t have been able to get a divorce to this day.
Isabelle froze on the spot.
Lana’s memory has returned?
And she took Bailey…
Panic filled Isabelle’s face: “Daddy, take me to the Gallagher family’s villa right now.”
It was the first time Samuel had seen her this nervous, his face grew stern:
“Tell me the truth, is Bailey really your and Michael’s child?”
Isabelle froze for a moment, but quickly covered it up: “Of course he’s his child, whose else would he be?”
After saying these words, she lowered her head, hiding the panic on her face.
Samuel squinted at her for a few seconds, ultimately saying nothing.
Bailey had to be Isabelle and Michael’s child.
On their way to the Gallagher family, Michael was in his car, passing by them…
At the top of the tallest building in Sunnydale, there was a revolving restaurant that overlooked the entire city; it was also the place where the Thompson family leaders held their meetings.
Molly Walker was reviewing the documents in her hands, ignoring the discussions around her, calmly accepting the Thompson family shareholders leaders’ candid scrutiny.
The leaders weren’t satisfied.
The thing the leaders feared the most was a high-ranking official with no ability but a strong backing.
How could a woman who was just university graduate a few years ago and was a housewife to a wealthy family take charge of this project? The dissatisfaction among the Thompson family’s shareholders’ leaders was evident.
They couldn’t understand why Mr. Thompson was being so reckless. How could he hand over such a large project to this woman? Could she handle it?
Although Gillian Thompson have studied abroad and was much younger, she had already participated in the design of large buildings nationwide and internationally. Her experience was rich and she was watched by them growing up, hence they respected her.
What experience did Molly have?
Experience as a Gallagher Group’s Jewelry Designer, or experience as a secret wife?
“Miss Walker, I heard that you will soon represent Gallagher Group in the
International Jewelry Competition, so are you currently an employee of the Thompson family or the Gallagher family?” A stylishly dressed woman asked this, her tone full of ridicule.
Not only were the Thompson family shareholders here, but also the three Thompson brothers.
As soon as Joshua Thompson heard this, anger rose on his face. He was about to stand up and speak, but Damian Thompson held him back.
Damian shook his head at him. Joshua gave the woman a ferocious look and swallowed his words.
All eyes were on Molly, waiting for her response..
