Chapter 442: Chapter 439: Nicholas Thompson’s Request
“I know.” Gillian Thompson didn’t get angry but laughed instead, “I have a grudge against her, but you are her second brother…”
“If you, the second brother, help me, you can definitely make my wish come true, right?” Gillian Thompson’s eyes lit up, “I’m like this now because of her. You’ve seen how I was humiliated by others. No matter where I work, I can’t escape the fate of being humiliated. But it’s different with ‘W’, there are all sorts of people there, and everyone wears masks, so basically, no one knows each other. This kind of job is very suitable for me.”
“No one will laugh at you in my studio either.”
“It’s not the same…” Gillian Thompson’s eyes reddened, and she lowered her head in distress, “They are your employees. They don’t bully me because they’re afraid of you, but that’s not real respect.”
“Gabriel, there’s no distinction in work types. As long as you want to, you can earn respect through your own efforts anywhere.” Nicholas Thompson tried to persuade her, but he saw the determination on her face.
The hope that Nicholas Thompson had raised slowly fell again.
“Second brother, please help me!” Gillian Thompson’s eyes filled with tears, and she cried pitifully.
He didn’t speak, but looked deeply into her eyes, full of loss.
He couldn’t describe the feeling, like a carefully cultivated flower suddenly blooming only to wither quickly.
It seemed like an eternity had passed.
Nicholas Thompson’s lips moved slightly, and there was no extra expression on his face.
“I’ll help you inquire.”
“Thank you, second brother!” Gillian Thompson was overjoyed, as if she wanted to jump inside the car.
Seeing her like this, the loss in Nicholas Thompson’s heart was gradually blown away.
After all, she was his sister, and her situation was so difficult. He would try for her sake.
…
The next morning, Molly Walker woke up and picked up her cell phone to check the time.
9:10 AM.
She had slept a bit long.
Thinking about everything that happened yesterday, it felt like she was still dreaming.
She had finally revealed her true identity and thoughts.
The one struggling with this was not her or her family, but Michael Gallagher.
“Did you really mean what you said?” After leaving Leaford family’s villa, Michael Gallagher still hadn’t recovered from the news she had just announced.
Since confessing his love to her last time, it seemed like he was too afraid to do it again.
He had been the initiator for so long, and now it was her turn to do it.
She said in front of the Thompson and Leaford families that she wanted to date him, and told her family about his grievances from all these years. They had easily received their family’s blessings.
Caught off guard by her actions, Michael Gallagher’s eyes showed a deep sense of gratitude.
After resolving these issues, the shackles on her were suddenly lifted, which is why she slept so long.
At this moment, the cell phone vibrated.
It was a message from Nicholas Thompson: Fourth Sister, I have something to tell you.
Seeing this title, Molly Walker raised her eyebrows, vaguely feeling that it wasn’t something good.
Although she didn’t like Nicholas Thompson, blood ties still remained, and she couldn’t completely sever their relationship; she might even have to put up a front.
Thinking about the attitude of Nicholas Thompson and Gillian yesterday, Molly Walker smiled with a mysterious expression on her face.
As she walked downstairs, she surprisingly saw Nicholas Thompson sitting on the sofa, unsure how long he had been waiting for her.
Being patient enough to wait for her like this, it probably wasn’t a small matter.
Seeing her coming down, Nicholas Thompson quickly stood up, his lips moving, his expression complex, and seemingly hesitant to speak.
“Yo, Fourth Sister, you’re awake?”
Joshua Thompson happened to walk out of his room, making fun of her right after he saw her. However, as his gaze turned to the living room, his expression stiffened, and he glanced over with his lips straightened, “What are you doing here?”
His tone was obviously unfriendly.
As he saw him, the words that Nicholas Thompson wanted to say suddenly got stuck in his throat.
He thought about it and looked deeply into Molly Walker’s eyes, saying with sincerity, “There is something I want to talk to you about in person.”
“What’s the matter?” Joshua Thompson leaned on the escalator railing with one hand, his beautiful peach blossom eyes narrowed, arrogant and charming, “You wouldn’t be plotting something after discovering our sister is part of ‘W’, would you?”
Nicholas Thompson pursed his lips and looked down without saying a word.
Molly Walker took the lead in walking out, speaking to Nicholas Thompson, “Let’s talk outside.”
She sensed Nicholas Thompson’s dilemma, and he probably didn’t want the others to know about this matter.
Seeing her so calm, Joshua Thompson felt frustrated, “Fourth Sister, if he threatens you when you go out, just shout.”
At this time, he despised Nicholas Thompson’s behavior of protecting Gillian Thompson with all his might.
With Nicholas Thompson’s character, he wouldn’t take the initiative to find Fourth Sister unless it was absolutely necessary. This indirect warning to him was for him to not cause any trouble.
There was a small garden in front of the Leaford family’s villa, with tables and chairs placed in it.
When Molly Walker sat down, the Leaford family’s servant brought coffee and snacks. She looked surprised to see Molly Walker and Nicholas Thompson together in harmony.
It was said that the second young master of the Thompson family and his newly recognized sister did not get along well. But now seeing them together, they seemed quite harmonious. Could the rumor be wrong?
As the servant walked inside with the tray, she noticed Natalie Lambert, the second young Miss of the Leaford family, standing by the door.
“How is it? Did you hear anything?” Natalie Lambert asked eagerly as she grabbed the servant’s arm.
“I… I didn’t hear anything.” The servant’s eyes widened in surprise.
Natalie Lambert sighed and could only continue standing by the door, craning her neck to look outside.
“I’m really afraid that Cousin Nicholas will do something bad.”
“Second Miss, they are siblings after all. Nothing will happen,” the servant reassured.
“I hope so.” Like Joshua, Natalie was worried that Nicholas Thompson’s intention in approaching Molly Walker was not good.
Given the situation, they obviously did not want others to see them.
Although worried, Natalie Lambert and Joshua Thompson both stood far away from the door, leaving Molly Walker and Nicholas Thompson some space to talk.
“Go ahead.”
Molly Walker stirred her coffee with the spoon in her hand, noticing Nicholas Thompson’s hesitation, she urged him to speak.
Nicholas Thompson looked deeply into her eyes, clenched his hand, and hesitantly asked, “Are you really the manager of that ‘W’ thing?”
Molly Walker raised her eyelid, guessing what he wanted to say.
But she remained calm, just nodding slightly.
“You are the highest administrator there, so the entire ‘W’ should be under your management. Your authority must be considerable.”
Molly Walker’s hand paused as she lifted her coffee.
Nicholas Thompson continued, “Gabriel is having trouble finding a job now… She knows she was wrong and has completely changed. She just wants to live an ordinary life. Can you… find her a job in your company?”
“An ordinary life…” Molly Walker smirked, “‘W’ is full of extraordinary people. Does she really want to be an ordinary person, or is she using the excuse of being an ordinary person to be someone extraordinary?”
Nicholas Thompson’s face changed, “That’s not what she meant.”
“Her face has appeared too many times in the media, and now everyone recognizes her. Those people either want to take advantage of her or humiliate her. She can’t work properly. She heard that everyone in ‘W’ is treated equally and with respect. She’s willing to lower her pride and let me come to you. Doesn’t that show her sincerity?”
“If she was truly sincere, she would have come to me herself,” Molly Walker raised her eyes and sneered, “Or is it that she thinks you could still save face as her brother in my presence?”
Being confronted face to face, Nicholas Thompson’s face changed from blue to white.
“I know you don’t consider me your brother. This time, I don’t intend to ask for your help for nothing either, name a price.” Nicholas Thompson’s expression remained calm, “I heard that your ‘W’ company takes money to handle orders and get things done. It shouldn’t be difficult for me to buy a job there with money, right?”
Molly Walker chuckled, holding back the urge to burst into laughter.
Buying a position?
Is it Gillian Thompson who has no shame, or is he, Nicholas Thompson, shamelessly audacious?
