Translator: 549690339
Michael Gallagher’s presence caught Molly Walker off guard for a moment.
She thought that no matter what, he should be staying in the hospital for a few days, but how did he end up here so quickly…
Seeing Michael’s gaze fall on the hand she held with Joshua Thompson, Molly instinctively let go of Joshua’s hand.
Joshua could clearly see the anger on Michael’s face, he slowly curled up the corner of his mouth and said: “Mr. Gallagher, weren’t you injured? Why wouldn’t you stay in the hospital a little longer.”
Michael didn’t look at him, he quickly walked over to Molly and asked, “The doctor said you left before finishing your examination?”
“Yes, I’m fine.’
Physical injuries were easy to heal, but heartbreak was difficult to remedy.
It surprised her that Michael came here. Could it be just to remind her to get a check-up?
Her underplaying the situation did not put Michael at ease.
“I will take you to the hospital to get a full-body check-up.”
His voice was low, his tone decisive, leaving no room for discussion.
After a moment of silence, Molly said to Joshua, “I’ll be going first, I will come again next time to take a look at the stuff you showed me.”
She remembered something and added, “I left Uncle’s gift in the dressing room.
Please make sure to give it to him.”
Michael pressed his lips together, his gaze becoming heavier.
No wonder Isabelle Richardson said that Molly and Joshua were meeting parents, it really looked like such a scenario. freewebnove(l).com
However, he arrived just in time, obviously, this meeting was still not successful.
The thought of Molly marrying Joshua made his brow ache.
Joshua found amusement in the obvious pressure Michael was under and looked at him carelessly.
Is the girl fond of him because she listens to what he says? What’s there to like about a man who forgets his loyalties?
He laughed unabashedly and loudly, said sarcastically, “Our family’s doctor is no worse than those in the big hospitals, I’ll call him and he can run a full-body examination on you later.”
“No need for the trouble.” Michael walked over, instinctively putting his arm around Molly’s shoulder, “It’s getting dark, she needs to rest. We didn’t forget Uncle’s birthday gift, we’ve already sent it over. We’ll welcome him some other time.”
“Let’s go.”
The area on Molly’s shoulder where he placed his hand was burning hot.
“Wait.” Joshua stopped them, “There is still something I need to tell you.” Molly knew he was talking about Lucy Thompson.
Seeing the curious crowd around them, Molly quickly responded, “It’s a small matter, no need to explain it especially on my behalf.”
It was just a personal grudge between her and Lucy, it wasn’t for anyone in the Thompson family to explain.
However, it seemed like Joshua was adamant on keeping her around today and wanted to explain to her.
Molly looked at Michael, silent, then at the delicate beads of sweat on his forehead, she realized he probably couldn’t hold out for much longer.
He would have sustained significant injuries on his back from shielding her from the falling crystal chandelier.
“Listen, Joshua, I have things to do, I’ll be heading out.”
She left as if fleeing.
Seeing her like this, Joshua didn’t try to keep her.
When the test results come out, everything will be clear.
He didn’t have any right to hold her back now.
Once the results came in, if she really turned out to be his sister, the first thing he would do is to beat up Michael.
She left hurriedly, Michael followed her.
When they finally stepped outside discarding the lavish banquet behind, it was just the two of them under the evening breeze.
The atmosphere was somewhat awkward.
Before Michael could say something, Molly said in a low voice, “Let’s go back to the hospital.’
This time, Michael obediently followed her. Seeing the black Maybach parked on the side, Molly walked over and opened the door.
There was someone in the backseat.
“Michael…”
Molly’s face stiffened.
“Why are you here?” Michael didn’t expect Isabelle to be there as well. “I was worried about your injury.” Isabelle spoke with a gentle and soft voice. Molly gave a light laugh, dismissively closing the door, “You guys go ahead.” “Miss Walker, you can come too.” Isabelle Richardson courteously invited her. “And you won’t be embarrassed to share a space with me?”
Didn’t expect her to be so straightforward, Isabelle Richardson’s face instantly showed a hint of embarrassment.
She turned and left.
Perhaps he was afraid that if Molly Walker and Isabelle stayed together, they might fight, Michael didn’t forcefully make Molly get into the car.
Molly Walker stepped aside, watching the Maybach leave, a mocking smile playing at the corners of her mouth.
As expected, his first love is the most important.
Just as her sarcastic laughter sounded, Michael’s voice came from beside her again: “You’re laughing so happily, what are you thinking about?”
Molly Walker looked back in surprise: “You didn’t leave?”
“Since I came to pick you up, how could I leave you alone here.” He looked in the direction of the departing car, squinting his eyes.
The driver took his words and drove Isabelle away.
“We have a car, but instead we stand here enjoying the breeze.” Molly Walker couldn’t define her feelings, she mumbled while scanning her surroundings, but noticed that the banquet hadn’t ended and there weren’t many people left, only security was patrolling around.
The distance from here to the exit of the mansion was far, it was not practical to walk.
Perhaps he heard her thoughts, she saw a shared electric vehicle under a tree.
These electric vehicles could be seen everywhere in this city.
“Can you ride this?” Molly Walker pointed at the vehicle.
Michael squinted his eyes. He did not know how, but he thought that this vehicle should be easy to operate, so he nodded.
“Then we’ll have to make do with this.” Molly Walker walked over, scanned the code, and gestured him to get on.
After a moment of hesitation, Michael got onto it.
Molly Walker was glad that it was a two-person electric vehicle. She sat behind, holding the corner of his clothes, she cheerfully said, “Okay, let’s go.”
One second, two seconds…
Half a minute passed, and the vehicle was still still.
“What’s wrong?” Molly Walker’s eyes widened, “Michael Gallagher, don’t tell me you don’t even know how to operate an electric vehicle.”
Michael Gallagher stiffened.
Indeed, he didn’t know how.
The vehicle looked small, but he didn’t know why there were so many buttons.
“Forget it, let me do it.”
She made him get off the vehicle, and she got on. Michael’s tall figure had to be confined to the back seat.
“Hold tight…”
After she finished these words, she twisted the throttle, and the vehicle rushed forward.
The wind blew her long hair, brushing it against his face.
Her hair carried a light fragrance, lingering at the tip of his nose, deepening his gaze.
“Michael Gallagher.” Her voice came from the wind.
“Hmm.”
The faint voice, even mixed with the wind, seemed gentle. “Can we get a divorce tomorrow?”
Molly Walker thought he hadn’t heard her, so she repeated it.
Michael didn’t respond, his eyes filled with coldness.
He took Molly, who met his parents, away, but she still wanted to be with Joshua Thompson?
“Hey, Michael Gallagher, don’t tell me you don’t want a divorce now?”
Not hearing his voice, Molly teased.
“What if I say I don’t? ” Michael asked.
Molly’s hand that was on the throttle swerved, and they almost fell off.
Molly quickly steadied her throttle, her heart pounding wildly.
What a disgraceful heart, he didn’t even like you, why are you pounding so fast?
“Even if you don’t want to, it won’t make a difference.” She gritted her teeth, reminding him, and also herself, “Do you forget what you told me on our wedding night?”
On their wedding night, he told her that he couldn’t give her any feelings, apart from money and status, he couldn’t give her anything else.
She had hoped and begged for it, and it was three years in a blink of an eye.
Now that his old flame was back, and she had finally decided to divorce him, he didn’t want to anymore? No way at all!
