The Ex-husband Wants to Get Power Every Day After the Divorce-Chapter 460 - 457: Ethan Hopkins’ Proposal
Chapter 460: Chapter 457: Ethan Hopkins’ Proposal
She didn’t want to be humiliated by such an ugly woman anymore! She couldn’t take it!
She grabbed Ethan’s hand, wanting to leave, but found him standing still.
“Ethan…”
“Gillian, if you leave now, can you still return to ‘W’?”
Ethan fixed his gaze on her.
Gillian’s eyes reddened, and she grievously said, “Is ‘W’ really that important? Ethan, are you just with me because of this status? If I didn’t have a Fourth Sister who is a ‘W’ BOSS, would you not be with me at all?”
Gillian felt both angry and upset.
She originally had expectations for her job, but after entering the toilet, all her hopes were shattered.
She couldn’t stand being in the toilet for even a minute, let alone cleaning it.
She realized that if she went back now, her second brother would still let her into the Law Firm, but if she was any later, she wouldn’t even be able to get into the Law Firm.
Seeing her determination to leave, although Ethan wasn’t pleased deep down, he didn’t show it.
From Gillian’s reaction, it was clear that if she missed this opportunity, there wouldn’t be a next time.
Ethan thought for a moment and suddenly had an idea.
“If you’re not satisfied with the job your Fourth Sister found for you, go and apologize to her in person.” Ethan added, “After all, you stood her up.”
Hearing the words “apologize”, Gillian widened her eyes, her chest heaving with anger.
Apologize to Molly?
It was clear that she didn’t arrange a good job for her, so why make her apologize?
Looking at Ethan coaxing her, Gillian knew what he meant but didn’t dare to refute.
She liked Ethan very much right now, and she didn’t want to break up with him, nor did she want him to be dissatisfied with her.
“Fine, I’ll apologize to her.” She clenched her teeth, her eyes filled with red veins.
“Good…” Ethan patted her head, and said, “I’ll go with you.”
Gillian didn’t suspect anything and thought that Ethan was only going with her because he was worried about her. Her depressed mood instantly lifted.
After they left, Helena raised her eyebrows, casually sending a message to her big brother: Bro, they left.
After leaving the Jackson family, Molly went straight to the address Michael Gallagher had sent her.
When she saw the large oriental-style mansion, she paused.
This was a two-story courtyard house with a perfect blend of modern style and technology, featuring small bridges over flowing water. It had an incredibly unique style.
A gravel path meandered into the distance, flanked by large ponds and an artificial hill, the scenery meticulously arranged.
In ancient times, this would have been a place where only nobles could live.
Having such an estate in the costly Capital City was unimaginable.
“You’re here.” Michael hurried forward and naturally took her bag, saying, “This is the wedding house I prepared for both of us…”
He paused, his voice slightly tentative, “The style was chosen by me and designed ahead of time. If you don’t like it, we can change it.”
He had personally overseen every single detail. Ever since his fake death, he had been preparing their new house in Capital City.
Back then, he had kept tabs on Molly’s news every day, and when he found out that she was about to get engaged to Jeremy Norman, jealousy and discomfort almost overwhelmed him.
Only by focusing on this place could he calm his emotions.
At that time, he thought that if Molly married Jeremy, he would gift this place to her as a wedding gift.
If they didn’t marry, then it would be his and Molly’s wedding gift.
As long as she didn’t marry Jeremy, he would snatch her away.
He originally thought she would never forgive him, but in the end, he managed to find a glimmer of hope.
“I know I did many things wrong in the past, and I don’t hope for your forgiveness, but I still want to have a home with you.”
He knew that while Molly was very rich, she didn’t have property of her own.
He had always been bothered by the fact that Jeremy had gifted her a house.
He just wanted Molly to know that what Jeremy could give, he could give too.
Molly didn’t know about his inner struggle and only concentrated on the fact that he had prepared a wedding house for them.
She examined the interior layout of the house and felt touched.
Many details showed that it had been designed specifically for her.
“Thank you.”
Her nose felt sour, but she didn’t show it in the end.
Seeing that she liked it, Michael smiled, his tense face finally relaxing a bit.
Just then, the doorbell rang.
Michael frowned.
Nobody would usually come to this house.
Molly looked at him and asked, “Do you have other guests?”
Michael shook his head, getting up and walking towards the door.
Outside, Gillian looked at the huge mansion, feeling stunned.
While mansions were not uncommon, this was in downtown Capital City!
The concept was that even selling several of the Thompson family’s estates could not buy a single property here.
“Is this where your Fourth Sister lives?” Ethan was also amazed by the house in front of him.
Gillian shook her head in confusion, “I don’t know, but she probably can’t afford a house here.”
In front of the man she liked, she didn’t want to admit that Ivy was better than her.
“Luckily you recognized her car, otherwise, we wouldn’t know where to find her.” Ethan knew what Gillian was thinking and subtly praised her.
Just now, the two had seen Ivy’s car on the road, which Gillian had recognized. They flagged down a taxi to follow it, but did not expect Ivy to enter such a huge mansion.
When they saw the mansion, Ethan felt both amazed and excited.
If a Thompson family daughter had this much money, it showed the family’s financial power.
Just then, the gate opened, and Molly and Michael stepped out together.
“Fourth Sister…” Gillian obediently held onto Ethan, giving her a sweet smile, “This is my boyfriend.”
Gillian thought that no matter what, Molly would be polite to her in front of an outsider, but to her surprise, Molly just glanced at Ethan without saying anything and frowned, muttering “bad luck.”
Her voice was neither loud nor low, but it was enough to penetrate Gillian’s vulnerable eardrums.
Gillian’s face stiffened, pretending nothing happened and said to her, “Fourth Sister, I came here to personally thank and apologize to you.”
“First, I want to thank you for your kindness in recommending me such a job. But I’m sorry, I quit, and I can’t live up to the janitor’s position at ‘W’.” Gillian’s voice was somewhat resentful as she spoke, “It’s my fault, I can’t bear the hardship, please find someone else for the job.”
“I never thought you could handle it.” Molly sneered, noticing the gaze Ethan was giving her, and frowned slightly.
This man’s gaze hadn’t left her since she appeared, his blatant and ostentatious lust-filled stare made her feel disgusted and uncomfortable.
As a man, Michael sensed Ethan’s naked gaze and narrowed his eyes. He walked up to Molly and stood in front of her, blocking Ethan’s line of sight.
