Chapter 519: Chapter 514: Arm Turns Outwards_1

Nicholas Thompson couldn’t help but laugh, “What, you’re trying to stop me again?”

Reading the message Gillian Thompson had sent made his suspicions clear.

“Second brother, Fourth Sister will definitively claim that Ethan isn’t reliable. Don’t let her fool you,” he said.

Nicholas couldn’t bring himself to say anything nastier to Molly, looking at her icy demeanor.

She always had a way with words. If it were in the past, he would believe her. But now, he wanted to hear out his other sister.

“Let’s cut to the chase.” Molly took out her cellphone, brought up a picture of Nicholas hugging another woman, and showed it to him. “Ethan Hopkins has been messing around. If you support him, you’re just hurting your dear sister Gabriel.”

“I don’t know how Gillian, with her love-addled brain, would explain to you, but I have heard and seen it all. This woman has been Ethan’s mistress for a while now. If you continue to help the Hopkins family, you’re just wasting your energy.”

Nicholas stared at the photo as his eyelids twitched.

The woman was adorably snuggling in Ethan’s arms, and his face was full of worry.

Gillian claimed that this woman was just Ethan’s junior at school.

But what sort of seniors and juniors could be acting this intimate?

Nicholas said nothing. He clenched his jaw and glared at the photo silently for a moment before hoarsely requesting, “Send the photo to me.”

Molly had been expecting this response.

She knew that Nicholas would not believe her and would confront Gillian.

“Do you think Gillian would believe you, believe me, or believe Ethan?” Molly retrieved her cellphone and smiled knowingly. “You should ask Gillian. She would also defend Ethan and wouldn’t break up over a single photo. I came here today just to inform you about something.”

“The project, I will not let Ethan get it.”

Nicholas’ face turned ashen, as his eyebrows furrowed into a knot.

“And who do you want to give it to?” Nicholas’ face darkened. “‘W’s manager can certainly give the project to whoever they like. Us plebeians, how can we compete with you?”

Despite the sharp retort, Molly remained unfazed.

‘W’ was nothing more than a company and a community. It simply had more fame and prestige due to the popular and mysterious projects they handle. Many people just overrated ‘W’.

But in the end, ‘W’ is still just a renowned and wealthy company.

Otherwise, she wouldn’t need help from the Gallagher family.

But she didn’t want to explain this to Nicholas.

“This project, I want to give it to the Gallagher family.”

“Ha…” Nicholas scoffed, “I thought you were noble… turns out you’re just as self-serving.”

“Don’t compare me to Gillian.” Molly remained dull, pulling up the corners of her lips slightly.

In terms of being self-serving, Gillian was the true self-server.

She didn’t want to explain or divulge her entire plans to him, because … there was no need.

“Nicholas Thompson, I only came here to inform you today, not to seek your advice. ” Molly stood up, slipping her cellphone back into her bag. ” If there’s nothing else then our conversation ends here. I still have something to discuss with my brother.”

She referred Damian as brother, while to Nicholas, she always used his full name.

The weighted difference was clear.

Nicholas’ face turned pale, his fingers clenched tightly.

He looked at Molly, seeing her determination, lowered his eyes and took a deep breath.

“Please, don’t tell my brother about this.” Nicholas paused, “If you want this project, I can persuade the Hopkins family to cooperate with the Gallagher family.”

“Cooperation with the Gallagher family…oh, you want Michael Gallagher to guide him, huh?” Molly laughed humorlessly, “How I deal with Ethan Hopkins, there are certainly no lessons to be learned from you. What I want to say or do with my brother is between him and I, because he is my brother. You, however, are Gillian’s second brother.”

“Gillian and I are in opposition, so naturally, we two are destined to clash.”

Her voice echoed in Nicholas’ ears, like a shocking thunderclap, obliterating all rationale.

Nicholas lowered his eyes, his heart turning bitter.

Even though they are all related by blood, it seems there is an insurmountable gulf between them.

“I promised Gabriel, this would be the last time I’d help her.”

After a long while, Nicholas Thompson finally spoke with a voice full of bitterness.

“What if Ethan Hopkins intentionally deceived Gillian, intentionally deceived you, and deceived our brother?” Molly Walker asked in return.

“Then so be it.” Nicholas Thompson looked up, the whites of his eyes filled with bloodshot veins, “I said this would be the last time I’d help her. If anything goes wrong, she’ll have to carry the burden herself. I won’t help her again.”

“Is that so…” Molly Walker’s lips curved up, “Why should I believe you? Why should I let you gamble with brother and the entire Thompson family?”

“Nicholas Thompson, I am determined to win this project. Let the project be there – let everyone compete according to their abilities.”

With those words, Molly Walker turned and walked away with long strides.

When she reached the door, she realized Damian Thompson had not gone far.

He was standing in the garden. Seeing Molly Walker come out, he turned his head slightly.

His elegant eyes were as calm as water, but when he saw her, a touch of gentleness rippled through them.

“Done talking?”

Damian Thompson took long strides towards her, “Do you need brother’s help?”

Without asking anything else, this single sentence dispersed all the coldness in Molly Walker’s heart.

She had bad brothers, but she also had good ones.

There were people in this world who disliked her, and people who loved her.

In contrast to Nicholas Thompson’s confrontational approach, Damian Thompson’s words and actions were all for her benefit.

Damian Thompson didn’t care if she was acting unreasonable or what her demands were. His simple offer of help, “brother will help you,” was enough to heal all her wounds.

Feeling a sour sensation in her nose, afraid that Damian Thompson would see her genuine emotions, she quickly lowered her head.

“Thank you, brother. I don’t need your help for now, but I may soon do something that you might not be pleased with.” She blinked her eyes, adjusted her emotions, and smiled at him slightly, “I’m going to help Michael Gallagher secure the A-level project. I may be competing with you soon.”

She didn’t mention her ultimate plan, which was to have the Thompson family cooperate with the Gallagher family.

Damian Thompson raised an eyebrow slightly, “You also want this project?”

“I don’t like Gillian Thompson; I don’t want her to have an easy time.” Molly Walker pouted.

“You’re not that kind of person.” Damian Thompson smiled, “Is there another reason?”

“Fourth Sister, have you discovered something?”

Molly Walker was slightly taken aback.

As expected of the person in charge of the entire Thompson Group, his sharp gaze saw through her intentions immediately.

“Ethan Hopkins is not a good person. I don’t want brother to help him.”

“I know.” Damian Thompson’s eyes narrowed into crescents, under his shiny glasses, his features appeared refined and noble, “But this is Nicholas’s wish… However, if Fourth Sister doesn’t like it, then we won’t help.”

“If Fourth Sister wants this project, brother will help you get it.”

Hearing these words, Molly Walker choked up.

She knew that unlike her, Damian Thompson had been with Daniel Thompson day and night for many years. With Nicholas Thompson proposing to donate a kidney and having a request, there was no reason for brother to refuse.

But now, because of her single sentence, brother had completely taken her side.

He didn’t ask why, and he didn’t doubt her.

He unconditionally took her side, just like how Nicholas Thompson had stood by Gillian Thompson’s side.

Molly Walker’s eyes reddened and her nose stung fiercely.

She took out her cell phone, opened a photo, and handed it to Damian Thompson.

“Ethan Hopkins is having an affair. He is lying to Gillian Thompson. If we help him secure this project, Gillian Thompson will be trampled under his feet and, I’m afraid… the entire Thompson family will be dragged down with her.”
