Chapter 111: Why Choose Her? She Has Been Divorced!

Translator: 549690339

“Boss, isn’t this decision too abrupt?” Fiona Bradford took a deep breath. “How can Elizabeth Aitken be qualified to be my superior?”

“Her performance this year ranked first in your entire team, even far exceeding yours. Why can’t she be your superior? Fiona, this time it’s also the Thompson family’s request. Cooperating with the Thompson family will secure our company’s profits for years to come. You need to broaden your horizons!”

The boss’s words struck Fiona like a heavy blow.

It was the Thompson family again.

It was Ivy Thompson who got Elizabeth promoted. As a mere employee, she couldn’t determine the company’s affairs.

But letting Elizabeth be her superior was absolutely impossible.

Trying to maintain her composure, Fiona walked up to Elizabeth and said coldly, “Congratulations on finding a good backer. It seems you’ll be my higher-up from now on.”

Elizabeth furrowed her brow. “What do you mean?”

Fiona didn’t want to explain further, so she picked up her wine glass and mingled with the crowd. She needed to find some support for her future life as well.

Elizabeth felt confused, but soon she received a message from her boss. When she learned of her promotion, she was moved to tears.

Molly Walker had told her she would take care of everything, but she hadn’t mentioned how much help she’d give her.

Elizabeth desperately needed this job and the money.

Thinking of everything Molly had done for her, Elizabeth was overwhelmed with gratitude. She closed her eyes, holding back her tears for a long time.

For Molly’s sake, she should work hard to repay her in the future.

Molly’s appearance shocked everyone, with 80% of people paying attention to her every move.

No one had expected her to come.

What was she doing here? To cause a scene?

After all, who could accept the fact that their ex-husband already had a five-year-old child after only three years of marriage? If it were them, they would never come to humiliate themselves like this.

Although the Gallagher family hadn’t revealed the mother’s identity, everyone had a guess in their heart when they saw the child. With Isabelle Richardson acting like the lady of the house, it was clear that Bailey Gallagher was the son of Michael Gallagher and Isabelle.

Seeing Molly, Isabelle stiffened, and embarrassment flashed across her face.

She hadn’t expected Molly to actually come.

If Molly hadn’t come, she would have taken some pleasure in it. But now that Molly was here, Isabelle was the one who was worried.

She was afraid that Molly was really here to cause a scene.

Thinking of her steadfast promise to Gillian Thompson, Isabelle felt a bit panicked.

Jeremy Norman walked beside Molly, keeping his distance. Whenever a man wanted to flirt with her, Jeremy drove them away.

It didn’t take long for people to notice the “guardian” by Molly’s side.

And it turned out to be Jeremy Norman.

Molly also noticed that Jeremy was deliberately helping her.

Knowing Jeremy’s intentions, she became even more reluctant to accept his “kindness.”

“Mr. Norman, I can handle this.” She smiled and spoke lightly, “Don’t worry, I’m fine.

Jeremy smiled bitterly. He understood that Molly didn’t want any gossip to spread about them.

Today, her beauty was unrivaled, and her subtle makeup made her stand out like a star. The men here were all successful and prominent figures in society. Every single-minded man wanted to come over and join in.

As a man himself, how could Jeremy not see what those men were intending?

The more he thought about it, the more frustrated he felt. He let out a sigh and headed in the opposite direction to freshen up.

After washing his face, Jeremy had only taken a few steps before Gillian Thompson stopped him.

“Mr. Norman.” Gillian raced over in her wheelchair.

With her delicate makeup and long hair pulled up, she appeared refined and gentle. She wore a white, fluffy gown that covered her legs, making her look like a princess sitting on a throne.

Jeremy remembered her as the Thompson family’s adopted daughter, but it seemed she’d recently been at odds with Molly.

A distant smile formed on Jeremy’s handsome face. “Miss Thompson.” At the mention of her name, Gillian’s face stiffened for a few seconds.

She remembered that Jeremy called that despicable woman “Miss Ivy.” Who was closer? The title said it all.

Ever since she saw Molly arrive, Gillian’s gaze had been following her and Jeremy. Even though she wasn’t sure before, after seeing Jeremy willingly become Molly’s “guardian,” she understood everything.

Jeremy stayed at the Thompson house for Molly.

“Mr. Norman.” Gillian bit her lip, tasting the blood in her mouth before continuing, “I heard that in addition to discussing cooperation, you came to

Sunnydale City for a marriage alliance?”

Jeremy looked at her, slightly startled, but didn’t respond.

Unable to hold back, Gillian asked, “Have you fallen in love with Ivy Thompson?”

Even with an answer in her heart, she wanted to confirm it for herself.

Seeing her staring intensely, Jeremy didn’t want to reply, but since Gillian was a member of the Thompson family, it wouldn’t matter if she knew.

“Yes, I do love her.” He hesitated for a moment. “If she’s willing, I’d like to marry her and make her my wife.”

Marry Ivy?

Make her his wife?

Gillian’s face turned pale, her pupils dilated. Her hands clenched tightly, the pain not even registering.

“Why?” Gillian muttered, “Why would you choose someone like her? She’s been divorced, hasn’t she?”

She could accept Jeremy liking others, but why did it have to be Ivy?

How could a divorced woman, pregnant with a child, compare to her?

Why did Ivy effortlessly win so much affection?

The devil in Gillian’s heart was screaming, making her feel both distressed and furious.

She couldn’t understand and didn’t want to understand.

Not far from them, Michael Gallagher and Jake Leaford were also heading in their direction.

“Do you really want to talk to Jeremy Norman alone?”

Jake couldn’t understand. Wasn’t it just seeing Jeremy help Molly? She hadn’t said anything, so why get so worked up?

He saw Michael purse his lips and his eyes turn cold as ice. Jake swallowed his words.

He was already raising another man’s child, yet still meddling in so many matters…

Jake noticed Jeremy and Gillian talking about something. He instinctively stopped in his tracks.

Standing nearby, Michael didn’t move forward.

Gillian was blocking Jeremy’s path, a twisted smile on her face. The exquisite makeup now served as a mask, making her look grotesque rather than beautiful.

“Mr. Norman, do you know she’s pregnant?”

No man wanted to marry a pregnant woman. What kind of person was Jeremy? How could he allow himself to become a father out of wedlock?

Gillian thought that Jeremy’s determination to marry Molly was because he didn’t know she was pregnant.

Once Jeremy found out about the pregnancy, would he still marry her?
