“Yes, I am indeed in charge of this organization,” Molly Walker reassured Joshua Thompson.
She trusted her third brother, so it didn’t matter if she revealed everything to him.
Hearing that she was in charge of the organization, Joshua was astonished.
He had thought that his sister was unusual, but he didn’t expect that she would be responsible for the organization.
He guessed that his sister might be one of the leaders of the organization, but he dared not think of her as the supreme leader, which would be too far-fetched.
“Then you don’t have to hide anymore,” Joshua chuckled as he took back his key. “There are just too many idle people at home, and we may need to deal with them later.”
He gestured toward the door, “A lot of people are inside, and the old man is waiting for you.”
Molly raised her eyebrows, not needing to guess that the Thompson family would not have a quiet day today, as it was bound to be lively for a few days.
There were plenty of people seated on the big sofa in the room. As she entered, the chatter inside the room suddenly went silent.
When faced with pairs of curious eyes, Molly looked at Daniel Thompson in the center and laughed, “It’s quite lively today.”
At this, Daniel Thompson’s face turned pale, then flushed.
Lively, of course, lively. And she was the one who brought all the commotion!
“Have you seen the news online?” Daniel’s gaze became sharp. “Is what that person said true? Did you really buy the tickets?”
“Would you believe me if I said I didn’t buy them?”
Daniel’s breath hitched, his face looking extremely upset as he suppressed his anger, “Either you did or you didn’t. There are so many company managers waiting for your answer here. Don’t dodge the question at this moment.”
Molly glanced around the room, seeing more than half of the familiar faces, all of whom had chatted with her at the Chamber of Commerce.
These people were now in the Thompson family’s house, waiting for her explanation.
Molly’s lip curved into a faint smile, “You all came here today to demand an explanation?”
“Miss Thompson, as soon as we saw the news, we came right away. We can’t rest easy without confirming it with you in person.”
“Yeah, Miss Thompson, we just want to know if you have any connection with that organization.”
Everyone chimed in, expressing the same thoughts.
Molly’s long eyelashes fluttered, her gaze as calm as still water, “I thought you all cooperated with the Thompson Group genuinely wanting to work together. If I have nothing to do with this organization, do you want to terminate the contract again?”
Their faces stiffened slightly.
Terminate the contract again? Even if they wanted to, they wouldn’t have the nerve. The first termination could be justified, but if they terminated again, their reputation would surely be tarnished.
“Miss Thompson, we’ve been friends with Mr. Thompson for years, and we wouldn’t terminate our contract over small matters like this. But we still want to know, after all, we have cooperation I’m afraid some bad things will affect our company’s operations.”
“Yeah, Miss Thompson, just give us a straight answer!”
“Just one word, yes or no. We just want to know the answer.”
These people were pressuring her, forcing her to admit her identity.
When the organization called them that day, they only explained the misunderstanding and didn’t directly mention her.
She didn’t want to take advantage of the organization’s name to show off and go against the organization’s principles. As a leader, she was even more unwilling to break the rules.
Listening to the relentless words of these people, Molly’s fingers slowly clenched into fists.
“Everyone, please listen to me for a moment.”
A tall figure walked in, voice clear and a bright smile on his face.
Jeremy Norman appeared, and everyone present recognized him.
“Mr. Norman!”
The Norman family’s businesses were spread across the world and were very famous throughout Capital City. As company managers themselves, they were of course familiar with him.
Thinking that Jeremy was about to get engaged to Ivy Thompson, everyone present understood that he was here to help Ivy.
They might not respect Ivy’s face, but they had to give Jeremy’s face respect.
“You don’t need to ask Ivy anymore. I guarantee with my personal integrity that as long as you cooperate well with the Thompson family this time, your profits may not double, but a seventy percent increase is absolutely guaranteed.”
A seventy percent increase!
What kind of concept is this? A collaboration that would amount to a whole year’s profit?
What a big claim from Jeremy Norman!
It’s not just them. Even Daniel Thompson feels a little guilty.
Seventy percent, even he doesn’t have that confidence.
Is this Jeremy Norman trying to trap him on purpose?
Molly Walker stands aside with a smile but remains silent, as a seventy percent profit is indeed too exaggerated.
“You’re not a Thompson, can you guarantee it?” Someone suspiciously asked.
“You may not believe Ivy, nor me, but you cannot disbelieve Damian Thompson. If you’re interested, you can check it out. The profit of the projects Damian Thompson has taken over has never been lower than seventy percent.”
It’s true that Damian Thompson’s projects never had a profit lower than seventy percent, and this time the project was just right for him to manage.
Not to mention seventy percent, even seven percent would be a profit for them.
Upon Jeremy Norman’s words, these people gradually put their minds at ease.
After sending these people away, Daniel Thompson’s face turns dark, smashing the cup on the table to pieces.
“Don’t bite off more than one can chew! But you, you bragged about it to such an organization! Even if you’re jealous of Gabriel, you shouldn’t brag about the company! Now, the whole family is losing face because of you!”
Daniel Thompson’s accusations spilled out like an avalanche.
Jeremy Norman pushed Molly Walker behind him, whispering: “Uncle Thompson, you’re her father. How could you not believe her? I heard that you favored Gillian Thompson, and it turns out to be true! Ivy has been missing for years, and now that she’s finally found, this is how you treat her?”
There’s anger in his words.
Daniel Thompson’s face changes, his cheeks flushed red.
“It’s not that I don’t believe, but you saw it just now, she can’t come up with any evidence, how can I believe?”
Daniel Thompson is so angry that his chest hurts.
These two daughters of his are really one more troubling than the next, always making him lose face.
“If you were like Violet Summers, who could easily manipulate other people’s cell phones, that would be fine. But you don’t explain anything and argue with your father in front of so many people, is it that these years of family teachings have gone to the dogs?”
“Yes, these years of family teachings have gone to the dogs.” Molly Walker laughs coldly and cruelly, raising her chin proudly, “Over the years, I’ve had no home and no family teachings.”
Daniel Thompson’s face turns pale, and he thinks about her many years of wandering outside.
It’s not her fault that she has no home, it’s the fault of the grown-ups.
His lips quivered and he mumbled disjointedly, “I was worried about you forget it, you and your Mom go back to Capital City.”
These days, Amanda Leaford has been clamoring to take the baby to Capital City, but he has been refusing.
He slumps down on the sofa, looking like a lonely old man who has been abandoned.
Molly Walker turned around coldly and saw Joshua Thompson standing by the door, his hands crossed over his chest, his head tilted slightly, and his slightly long yellow bangs covering half of his handsome face.
He raised an eyebrow at Molly Walker, “Let’s go to Capital City together. I’ll take you to see our adorable grandparents.”
He had planned to stay here with his older and second brothers, but Daniel Thompson’s actions still disappointed him. In that case, let him be alone.
Jeremy Norman lowers his eyes and doesn’t say anything. He didn’t expect Molly Walker to not get fatherly love even after she came home.
His sad eyes fall on Molly Walker, and seeing her indifferent, his heart aches even more.
As Molly Walker walked out side by side with Joshua Thompson, he wondered, “Did you notice that he’s changed?”
Changed?
Molly Walker’s heart skips a beat as she looks back at Daniel Thompson from afar, who is sitting straight in his chair, with his hair slick and shiny.
Just now she noticed that something was off about Daniel Thompson, and now that she took a closer look, his transformation was obvious. His previously neglected white hair was dyed black, and his dress and appearance became more fashionable and youthful.
Daniel Thompson used to be a handsome guy who could compare to a celebrity when he was young, and he still had charm even as he aged.
He has indeed changed, and he has become more self-conscious about his appearance.
“He and Mom have been in a cold war these days, not sure who he’s trying to impress.”
Joshua Thompson crossed his arms, his eyes filled with coldness.
Molly Walker’s heart skips a beat as she frowns.
