Chapter 550: Chapter 545 You Are Really Blind_1
 

Nicholas Thompson was a bit nervous, “I have some important things to share with you.”

“Everyday you have a lot to say,” Joshua Thompson had to resist the urge to roll his eyes.

If it wasn’t for their blood ties, he really wanted to act like he didn’t know this brother of his.

There were never ending troubles, and his older brother was always involved.

Looking at Nicholas Thompson’s awkward face, Molly Walker remained expressionless and said, “Go ahead.”

If she didn’t let Nicholas Thompson finish today, he would stop her next time anyways.

“Catrina is my girlfriend. She’s a bit soft-hearted, and she’s gotten along well with Gillian. She might not clearly distinguish between right and wrong,” Nicholas Thompson paused. “If she offends you in any way, please don’t blame her.”

Nicholas Thompson knew, the relationship between Gillian Thompson and his fourth sister had become irreparable. However, he didn’t want Catrina Rodgurez and Molly Walker to have a fallout.

Catrina Rodgurez was unaware of Molly Walker’s abilities, but he knew it all too well.

Gillian deserved what happened to her, but it wasn’t completely unrelated to Molly either.

He didn’t want Catrina Rodgurez to end up like Gillian Thompson.

“I don’t blame her.” Molly Walker sighed, “We’re not that close to begin with, there’s no need for me to get upset with her.”

If she got upset every time someone said something, she would never stop being upset in her life.

In Nicholas Thompson’s eyes, Catrina was his girlfriend, but for her, Catrina Rodgurez was just a stranger she met for the first time.

Hearing that she didn’t blame Catrina, Nicholas Thompson breathed a sigh of relief, but thinking about her reason, he felt bitter deep down.

Ultimately, she just didn’t care, did she?

If she really considered him as her brother, she wouldn’t take it so lightly.

“So that woman is your girlfriend?” Joshua Thompson’s tone suddenly started to fluctuate, “You really are blind. It’s okay that you have a lousy taste in sisters, but I didn’t expect your choice in girlfriends to be as equally poor. Let me warn you, if your girlfriend dares to bully our fourth sister, it doesn’t matter if she’s your girlfriend or your wife, I won’t hesitate to hit her.”

Nicholas Thompson pursed his lips and frowned, “Rest assured, that incident will not happen again.”

“Even when I gave you guys my full trust, didn’t you still bully her?” Joshua Thompson scoffed, “I can’t trust you anymore.”

Joshua Thompson walked past, bringing Molly along with him.

As Michael Gallagher followed them, he stopped when he walked by Nicholas Thompson, “Mr. Thompson, can you manage your own woman? I share the same thoughts as Joshua, I will not tolerate Molly being wronged anymore.”

Nicholas Thompson flinched, watching Molly Walker leaving surrounded by people. He felt a pang in his heart as though it had fallen apart.

After all, he ended up being the one who was worthless.

“Second brother…” Gillian Thompson arrived late in her wheelchair, she looked at Nicholas Thompson timidly, “Ethan Hopkins left me here, second brother, could you… take me home.”

Nicholas Thompson looked down at Gillian Thompson.

Her haggard face wasn’t feigned, it was evident that being abandoned by Ethan Hopkins had shattered her.

Thinking about the speech she had given on behalf of Ethan Hopkins, Nicholas Thompson furrowed his brows, “Why did you read that low-quality speech? You knew it would only humiliate you.”

Thinking of that garbage speech, Gillian Thompson was both embarrassed and annoyed, “It was Ethan Hopkins who insisted that I go on stage.”

“So you just do whatever he tells you to?” Nicholas Thompson scoffed, “If he asked you to betray the Thompson family, would you listen to him too?”

Betray the Thompson family?!

Gillian Thompson shivered.

What did second brother mean by this? Could it be… he found out?!

No, that’s not possible. Even Ivy Thompson didn’t know, how would he?

She had been very meticulous, no one could notice, unless Samuel Richardson was stupid enough to spill the secret, nobody would know about her plans.

If both Samuel Richardson and Ethan Hopkins didn’t say anything, no one would uncover this secret.

“How could I betray the Thompson family? Even if I die, I would never betray you.” Gillian Thompson, unnerved, was on the verge of tears.

“That’s good.” Michael Gallagher’s advice to Nicholas Thompson remained at the back of his mind, “Where do you want to go? I’ll take you there.”

Gillian Thompson lowered her head in trembling fright, “I’d like to go to the Hopkins family.”

She was carrying Ethan Hopkins’ child inside her. Even if Ethan had abandoned her, it was impossible for her to sever ties with him completely.

Nicholas Thompson frowned in disgust, “After all he’s done to you, you will still go looking for him?”

“What else could I do? Where else could I go now? Could I possibly go back to the Thompson family?” Gillian Thompson’s voice choked with sobs, she looked utterly pitiful.

Nicholas Thompson’s voice softened: “I will take you back to the Hopkins family then.”

The sobbing sound from Gillian Thompson halted, her eyes reddening significantly.

Indeed, even her elder brother was losing patience with her.

Nicholas Thompson dropped her off at the entrance of the Hopkins residence and glanced in her direction for a moment.

He could still take her away with him if Gillian Thompson regretted her decision.

But she walked towards the Hopkins’ villa without a backward glance.

A sense of disappointment filled, Nicholas Thompson’s heart. He stepped on the accelerator and drove away, leaving without a backward glance.

As soon as Gillian Thompson reached the entrance of the Hopkins family, Ethan Hopkins’ mom had already seen her in the surveillance footage.

“Isn’t that your wife? Are you really planning to leave her behind like this?” Ethan Hopkins’ mother scoffed at her cold-faced son.

She never really liked Gillian Thompson, but her son insisted on getting involved with her and she couldn’t stop him.

Seeing her son return home in a fit of rage now, she seemed to take a playful jab at him.

Ethan Hopkins sat heavily on the sofa, his eyes burning ferociously, “What wife? She’s just a cripple. Now that I have used her, I can do whatever I want.”

“I saw in the surveillance footage that Nicholas Thompson dropped her off. She hasn’t completely severed ties with the Thompson family. Are you really planning to abandon even the child?” Ethan Hopkins’ mother gave a timely reminder.

She knew about the failed bidding of the Hopkins family. This was all orchestrated by the Thompson family, or to be more specific, due to Gillian Thompson’s stupidity.

A suicide attempt that landed her son in danger!

Ethan Hopkins sat on the sofa, looking extremely agitated, clearly filled with rage.

The doorbell kept ringing, Ethan Hopkins’ mother stood up, “Let me go talk to her. Since it’s a utilitarian relationship, we should maximize the benefits.”

After saying that, Ethan’s mother headed towards the door.

Gillian Thompson stood outside. The cold wind blew, causing her to shudder. Just as she was about to ring the doorbell, the door swung open with a bang.

Seeing who it was, Gillian Thompson paused, “Aunt… why did you come out? Where’s Ethan?”

“You have the audacity to mention him?” Ethan Hopkins’ mother looked disgusted, “Gillian Thompson, abort the child. We don’t acknowledge this child.”

Gillian Thompson turned pale, “Don’t acknowledge it? I’m obviously carrying Ethan’s child, how can you deny it? Throughout these years, apart from Ethan, I haven’t gotten close to any other man. Aunt, I respect you so I call you aunt. But you can’t insult me and my child!”

“Just because you say it’s my son’s child we have to acknowledge it? You got involved with him before the wedding and shamelessly got pregnant. Who knows if the child in your belly is my son’s?” Ethan’s mother was not easily dominated, she coldly attempted to shut the door, “Get out of here quick. You, who always create more problems than solutions, trying to trap my son into marriage won’t work here!”

With a “bang”, the door was violently shut.

Gillian Thompson felt a painful sting in her nose, her eyes red and swollen. She glared at the peephole on the door, gritted her teeth, rushed forward and started banging on the door while shouting, “Ethan Hopkins, you heartbreaker! You don’t want to admit that it’s your child, I curse you to die miserably!”

“The things you’ve asked me to do, I’ll go tell my brother now!”

Upon hearing this, Ethan, who was inside the house, leaped up at once and rushed towards the door.

Gillian Thompson was still shouting, “I betrayed the Thompson family to get you…”

The door made a click sound and opened. A hand reached out and covered Gillian Thompson’s mouth fiercely.

“Shut up!”
