The Ex-husband Wants to Get Power Every Day After the Divorce
Chapter 352 - Chapter 352: Chapter 351: Do You Want It?Chapter 352: Chapter 351: Do You Want It?
Down syndrome, low intelligence, most of them can’t take care of themselves.
If born, it would be a kind of pain for the child.
She touched her belly, full of pain in her eyes.
The last time she felt so helpless was when her grandmother passed away.
Since joining the organization, there’s rarely anything she can’t do. But when it comes to preserving lives, she’s always powerless.
“If it’s confirmed, should we abort him? Would you… despise him?” Molly Walker murmured, as if asking him, but also asking herself.
Michael Gallagher clenched his lower lip, his heart aching sharply.
“Let’s change to another hospital for examination. This hospital’s result might not be accurate.”
Molly’s pupils shrank, and she tightly held his hand, “Tell me, will you refuse him? Would you want to abort him?”
Michael Gallagher held her hand back: “If you want it, we’ll have it. If you don’t want it, we won’t have it.”
Molly shuddered all over and leaned weakly against the chair.
To abort is irresponsible to life; not to abort is irresponsible to both child and adult.
At this point, Vivian Wilson’s voice cut in: “Miss Thompson, is there a problem with your Down syndrome screening?”
Molly looked up, her gaze suddenly sinking.
Facing her cold eyes, Vivian covered her chest, forcing a smile: “I didn’t mean to eavesdrop on your conversation. I… just happened to pass by. Oh! Actually, some hospitals’ Down syndrome screenings might not be accurate. Their aim is to get you to do another examination. If it turns out there’s no problem, the hospital will just say it was a misdiagnosis… ”
Vivian kept talking to herself, seeing that Molly and Michael Gallagher didn’t speak, her tone became smaller and smaller.
She didn’t want to eavesdrop. She originally wanted to leave when she heard it, but couldn’t help it.
“My cousin is in obstetrics and gynecology, so I know a little about this field.”
Vivian summoned the courage to speak, looking timidly at Molly. Seeing Molly’s expression eased, she finally breathed a sigh of relief.
“Thank you.” Molly nodded at her.
Though she didn’t like Vivian, she knew her words were well-intentioned at this moment.
Michael Gallagher’s body was full of coldness.
He had been too busy comforting Molly just now that he didn’t even know when someone stood next to them.
“I saw you coming to the hospital, and I wanted to say hello. I’ll leave now.” Not daring to look at Michael Gallagher, Vivian fled in a panic.
As she watched Vivian leave, there was no emotion in Molly’s eyes.
“I’ll contact the Capital City Maternal and Child Health Center. Let’s do another review.”
Molly nodded.
It didn’t take long for Michael Gallagher to contact the director of the Maternal and Child Health Center. The two rushed to the hospital to do a full set of tests. By the end of the process, Molly was nearly exhausted.
“I’ll take you home.” Michael Gallagher lifted her horizontally, causing Molly’s face to turn red.
“I… can walk on my own. Put me down.”
Feeling the scrutinizing gazes of people coming and going in the hospital, she was a bit uncomfortable.
However, Michael Gallagher narrowed his eyes, unmoved. His arms were strong and powerful, his long legs walked quickly, and he soon carried her out of the hospital.
After the re-examination, Molly’s emotions were not as turbulent as before. With the attitude of obstacles being overcome, she decided to wait for the results and then make a decision.
As he drove, Michael Gallagher’s gaze kept darting towards her.
When he saw her mood eased, he finally relaxed.
He didn’t expect pregnancy and childbirth to be so nerve-racking.
At the moment when Molly broke down today, he even began to resent the baby in her belly.
Fortunately, he quickly adjusted his mindset.
If it wasn’t for this child, the bond between him and Molly wouldn’t be so deep. This baby is like a connection between her and him and a testament to their feelings.
In the car, the radio was broadcasting the latest news.
“Breaking news, the International Jewelry Competition finals will be held in Capital City the day after tomorrow, when contestants from all over the world will gather in Capital City… ”
Hearing the jewelry competition news, Molly lifted her eyelid and glanced at Michael Gallagher.
“The Gallagher family has already given up the competition,” Michael Gallagher added. “Originally, we only participated in the competition to let you participate. Since you’re not participating, the competition has no meaning for the Gallagher family.”
Molly’s heart was slightly moved: “Is the Gallagher family still under your control?”
“Yep.” Michael Gallagher smiled, “Bailey Gallagher is still too young, and the assistant has been helping him all along.”
Molly remembered Bailey slap his chest, saying that although he was young, he could try to manage the company.
At that time, she thought Bailey was just playing around, but she didn’t expect him to actually start managing the company.
“He’s almost six years old, and with his little assistant’s help, there won’t be any major issues. Kangxi was crowned emperor at eight, so taking responsibility early isn’t a bad thing.”
Although Michael is talking about Bailey’s little assistant, it is actually he who is behind the scenes, helping.
Luckily, Michael has carefully observed Bailey these days and found that, though only five years old, Bailey’s focus and insight are far beyond his peers. In a few years, Bailey should be able to take over the Gallagher Group without any problem.
Molly glances at Michael, the corners of her lips slightly raised. Although Xavier Gallagher has died, Michael has always been responsible for the Gallagher family.
Perhaps, deep down in his heart, the Gallagher family is his true home.
“I have already entered the competition on behalf of the organization.”
Molly decides to tell Michael about the competition.
Their misunderstandings in the past revolve around this competition, and she does not want any more misunderstandings in the future
Michael isn’t surprised.
He has witnessed the capabilities of the “W” organization firsthand. Compared to his surprise before, he can now accept it calmly.
“I’ll pick you up the day after tomorrow.”
“All right.” Molly nods her head while thinking about the Jenkins family’s descendant.
This descendant must not be Michael, because as a member of the Jenkins family, Michael doesn’t seem to know that the organization’s founding has something to do with the Jenkins family.
So who exactly is this Jenkins descendant who has the painting?
Inside the Jenkins family’s villa.
Jerry Jenkins listens to Mr. Jenkins’ complaints while leisurely lying on the sofa, playing with a string of amber beads. He squints his thin, long eyes, wears a long robe, and has an outstanding demeanor and appearance.
Scarlett Jackson sits to the side, her eyes occasionally falling on Jerry, and she feels stunned in her heart.
She never thought that Jerry could become a normal person.
She always believed that the Jenkins family’s bloodline could not produce a fool and felt pity for Jerry’s illness.
When she looks at the present Jerry now, it’s as if his foolishness is a thing from a previous world. A person with such a demeanor and talent for conversation does not seem like the same person at all.
Unless…
The previous Jerry was pretending.
Thinking about this, Scarlett starts to feel uneasy.
When Jerry’s father initially entrusted her family with the painting, he hoped that they would hand it over to the Jenkins family’s descendant. Her father used this as an excuse to verbally arrange a marriage between himself and the child of the Jenkins family’s boss. At that time, Jerry’s intelligence was worrying, so the marriage was settled for Jerry’s brother Zachary Jenkins instead.
She also thought that the things left by Zachary’s father must be for Zachary.
By the time she becomes Zachary’s wife, everything will naturally become her future child’s property.
However, Jerry’s recovery suddenly puts pressure on her.
As Jerry plays with the string of beads, he doesn’t seem to be paying much attention to what’s going on around him. Scarlett’s eyes can’t help but follow him, her heart racing.
Does Jerry know about his father’s inheritance?
Just as she’s looking at Jerry, he raises his slightly squinted eyes, and their gazes collide.
Scarlett’s heart shudders.
When those beautiful eyes open, the dark pupils inside seem to draw her in like a magnet, making it impossible to look away.
His fair complexion, from lack of sunlight, allows the veins to show through his skin, making him appear pure and fascinating.
“Miss Jackson,” says Jerry, his red lips lifting slightly, “Do you like my brother?”
Hearing this, Scarlett frowns.
This straightforward question catches Scarlett off guard.
She glances at Mr. Jenkins, and seeing him smile, she slowly nods.
“I indeed have feelings for Zachary.”
Not only does she covet his property, but she also has genuine feelings for him as a person.
Ever since she learned of her father and Uncle Jenkins’ arrangement, she has been paying attention to Zachary, who was known as Michael Gallagher at the time and had a secret wife.
Scarlett observes Michael silently, and gradually, her infatuation grows.
However, she is engaged to Zachary, not Michael.
She can only endure and wait. When Michael sheds his fake identity and assumes his real identity as Zachary, she finally reveals her true status as his fiancee.
“Unfortunately, it seems that my brother is about to remarry Ivy Thompson soon.”
Remarry…
The composure Scarlett has tried to maintain slowly begins to crumble.
It was hard enough for her to wait for Michael’s divorce and for him to assume his true identity as Zachary. How can she allow him to remarry that woman, Ivy Thompson?
