NOVEL SIMPLE Chapter 377 - 376: Have You Offended Him?
Chapter 377: Chapter 376: Have You Offended Him?
Jerry Jenkins saw Mr. Jenkins hesitating, with an uncertain light in his eyes.
He used to be a “fool,” so it made sense that his grandfather didn’t put hope in him, but now that he was well, he had the right to know a lot of secrets about the Jenkins family.
“It’s fine if Grandpa doesn’t want to talk about it.” Jerry lowered his eyes in disappointment, “Before, Jerry was a fool and couldn’t share the burden for Grandpa. But now that Jerry is well, he will do everything he can to help Grandpa whenever he is needed.”
Jerry’s tone was filled with an indescribable sense of desolation.
Mr. Jenkins already felt guilty about Jerry, so when he heard this, he stopped hesitating and explained, “It’s actually about your father’s will. Your father…”
“Mr. Jenkins!” Scarlett Jackson interrupted him hurriedly, seeing that the two were looking at her, she stammered, “Molly Walker… they’re coming over…”
The competition had already ended, and the Thompson and Leaford families were following Molly Walker out.
Molly Walker didn’t take a few steps before the reporters began flooding in.
“Miss Walker, what exactly is your relationship with the ‘W’ organization? Does your participation in the competition on behalf of this organization mean that you have a high status within it?”
“You participated in the competition under the name Molly Walker instead of Ivy Thompson. Does that mean you still don’t acknowledge that you are a member of the Thompson family?”
“Do you think the results of today’s competition are unfair? Will you file a complaint?”
Luckily, the Thompson and Leaford families had brought bodyguards with them this time, so the reporters were stopped three meters away from Molly Walker.
“Dear reporters, my cousin is not in the mood for interviews today. She is pregnant, and we are all hungry. Please give us some face and let us go to dinner first.” Natalie Lambert spoke kindly, taking out red envelopes from her bag and giving them to the reporters.
Each red envelope had a certain thickness, and the reporters who received them were stunned.
They had received red envelopes during their careers, but this was the first time they had been given one so openly.
Taking someone’s money made it hard to go against them, so the reporters no longer felt comfortable asking questions at this time.
Molly Walker lowered her eyes, wrapping herself up in her long windbreaker jacket, like a cocoon.
Her good figure, combined with her light makeup and the reporters surrounding her, made her look like a stunning scene, even more elegant than a celebrity.
Not far away, Scarlett Jackson stared at Molly Walker intently.
Even though she was standing there, the reporters seemed to ignore her completely, their eyes only on Molly Walker.
Molly Walker was only in fourth place, yet she seemed to be more popular than the first place.
Scarlett Jackson’s face turned pale with anger.
Molly clutched her coat and glanced around, lowering her eyes to conceal the disappointment in her eyes.
Michael Gallagher was not there.
Although she knew her ranking was manipulated, she didn’t care about those vain things. Still, not seeing Michael Gallagher made her feel a little disappointed.
They say that pregnant women are emotionally unstable; perhaps it’s the hormones at work.
Molly shook off her thoughts and followed the Thompson family to the RV Joshua Thompson had brought.
Upon seeing this armored-like RV, the onlookers gasped in amazement.
“Holy sh*t, Mercedes, the dream car!”
“The ceiling of the RV, worthy of the richest man.”
Now, everyone’s attention shifted from Molly Walker to the vehicle.
This RV was a Mercedes-Benz Heavy Truck RV, a veritable fortress and a mobile mansion.
The military-green body of the three-story truck dazzled the reporters.
There were plenty of rich people in Capital City, but only a few could afford a million-dollar RV like this. After all, this wasn’t the end of the world, and the practicality of such an RV was not very strong.
Watching the Thompson family and the Leaford family along with the bodyguards walking towards the vehicle, this RV became the most practical choice.
What other car could accommodate so many people? Only this RV!
Natalie Lambert showed some surprise on her face when she saw the car. She walked up to Joshua Thompson and whispered, “Joshua, when did you buy this? It’s so cool.”
“I didn’t buy it; someone else gave it to me.” Joshua Thompson coughed a few times.
Michael Gallagher had gifted the vehicle. At that time, he had picked several cars and asked people to deliver them to the Leaford family’s residence.
The Leafords had a large parking lot, but he was always busy and never had the chance to enjoy it. Today was the first time he saw the car.
To be honest, he was also amazed at the rooftop of the real RV.
This car really looked like a military one.
He asked the driver to drive it out to give Ivy some face and show off. However, it was too eye-catching.
Joshua Thompson walked up to Molly Walker and coughed, saying, “This car was a gift from Michael.”
Molly was stunned.
“Hey, where’s Michael?” Joshua Thompson looked around and found someone missing.
At some point, Michael had left.
Molly pursed her lips.
After her competition, she hadn’t seen Michael. During the competition, she tried several times to find Michael in the crowd, but he always looked away and didn’t meet her gaze.
Her instinct told her that Michael was mad at her.
“He’s here, right there.” Natalie Lambert waved at a man standing not far away. “Brother-in-law, over here, over here!”
Natalie Lambert laughed and pointed to the nearby RV, signaling Michael to get in.
As she saw Michael, Molly’s heart softened. However, when she met his gaze, her heart suddenly contracted.
Michael stood alone, his spine erect like a mountain without a single waver, his black eyes deep like a dark pool.
“Brother-in-law…” Natalie suddenly realized something was wrong. She looked at Molly and then at Michael, finally shutting her mouth.
Under everyone’s eyes, Scarlett Jackson walked up to Michael, standing very close to him.
Joshua Thompson frowned, glancing at his sister and lowering his voice, “What does this mean? Is he moving on so quickly?”
Molly didn’t speak, her teeth clenching her lower lip, her body trembling slightly.
She stared straight at Michael, her eyes filled with questions.
But Michael didn’t even look at her and walked with Scarlett towards another car.
The door of the extended business car opened, and Mr. Jenkins walked out leaning on his crutch.
At this moment, the reporters, as if they had discovered a new continent, walked towards Mr. Jenkins with their microphones.
It’s unknown what Mr. Jenkins had said, but Michael and Scarlett got into that car together.
The atmosphere suddenly became tense.
Joshua Thompson was the first to explode, “What the hell does Michael mean? Wasn’t he said to have severed ties with the Jenkins family? Is this called severance?”
Damian Thompson’s upturned lips pressed down, and there was a hint of surprise on his gentle face.
Michael had taken his father away from the venue today for his Fourth Sister. When she was treated unfairly later, he also went to find the organizer.
All along, he should have had Fourth Sister in mind.
“Fourth Sister, did you offend him somewhere?”
Leaving like this without saying goodbye didn’t seem like Michael’s style.
