“Elizabeth Aitken! ”

Elizabeth Aitken was arguing with Jake Leaford when an angry voice suddenly sounded. Looking over, she saw Aaron Howard rushing towards her.

“Well, well, caught red-handed, huh? You said you didn’t cheat on me, but look at yourself, how pathetic! This would be considered blatantly putting a green hat on me!” Aaron shouted angrily at Jake, his face slightly stiff, and raised his voice, “You?”

After the last time her father was hospitalized, Aaron was forced to pay a large sum of money, and being a small-time guy, he had to borrow money for medical expenses. In order to pay back the debt, he was even doing menial labor like moving goods.

Unexpectedly, this man was having an affair with Elizabeth.

“Great, you guys are in this together!” Aaron was furious but was interrupted by Eliabeth’s laughter:

“So what if we are? Aaron, did water get into your brain? We’re divorced, and it’s none of your business who I’m with!” With that, she laughed and hugged

Jake, leaning affectionately on his shoulder. “He’s more handsome, richer, and more considerate than you. I’d choose him over a rotten leaf like you any day.”

Rotten leaf…

Aaron was so angry that he couldn’t speak but couldn’t deny that Elizabeth was right. They were divorced, and this handsome man was clearly richer than him. Anyone would choose him.

“Even if we’re divorced, you don’t have to find a new partner so quickly, do you?” Aaron looked at Jake with a careless glance. “You moved on so fast, people will think you found him before our divorce!”

The more Aaron talked, the more he felt it was possible.

Elizabeth was a slow burner, and from the way she and the man seemed familiar, it didn’t seem like they had just met.

Hearing this, Elizabeth rolled her eyes without hesitation.

She didn’t expect that even after the divorce, she would still be slandered by Aaron.

Jake wanted to speak up but was stopped by Elizabeth. She sneered, her tone sarcastic: “Have some confidence. I met him after our divorce, and after leaving you, there’s a whole jungle for me to choose from. What you see now is just one tree in it.”

After that, it was Jake’s turn to look upset.

Whole jungle?

He’s just one tree?

Was he just a spare tire?

Jake felt that even after a few years, Elizabeth was still as foolish.

Was it her intention to hurt everyone, including herself, when she got angry?

Aaron was also very upset, but facing the man beside Elizabeth, he didn’t have the courage to confront him.

Seeing his colleagues peeking at the commotion from behind, Aaron knew that if this continued, he would become a laughing stock.

He left with a gloomy face,

With the troublesome person gone, Elizabeth immediately pushed Jake away with disgust: “Thanks.”

Elizabeth cast him a sidelong glance: “There’s no use in you trying to stop me. If you stop me today, I’ll be back tomorrow. I have plenty of time, but you might not.”

“Elizabeth Aitken!” Jake frowned, “Do you really think the Gallagher family has no one else? If it weren’t for me stopping you today, you’d already be in the Public Security Bureau because of the commotion.”

“Michael Gallagher behaves so upright, is he really afraid of my fuss?” Thinking of Molly Walker’s “misery,” Elizabeth was infuriated. “The baby in Molly’s belly is his, and both Harry Lambert and Jeremy Norman are more responsible than him. He, as the baby’s father, hasn’t fulfilled a single responsibility. What’s wrong with me scolding him? Doesn’t he deserve it?” Jake’s eyes were unreadable: “Did Molly tell you that?”

He never thought that Molly would blame the baby on Michael Gallagher.

“Harry Lambert and Jeremy Norman aren’t enough for Molly to choose from? Why does she have to cling to Michael Gallagher?” Jake’s eyebrows were slightly cold.

It’s one thing for him to tease Michael Gallagher, but it’s another for Molly to actually throw this on Michael Gallagher.

“Michael said he never had a relationship with Molly. Is the baby just going to appear out of thin air?” Jake spoke earnestly for the first time, explaining patiently, “Michael isn’t an irresponsible person. If it really is his child, he would definitely acknowledge the child. But since he said it’s not his, with his personality, even if forced, he wouldn’t acknowledge it. I believe Ivy

Thompson is very suspicious, and you better stay away from her to avoid

being influenced.”

Elizabeth laughed coldly, her tone chilling, and her dark pupils filled with ridicule for him: “You men are always like this, taking advantage and pretending to be innocent. You think Michael Gallagher isn’t that kind of person, but I don’t think Molly is either. Let’s make a bet.”

“We’ll bet then!” Jake arrogantly raised his chin and smiled smugly, “If Molly’s baby turns out to be Michael’s, I’ll kneel and address you as ‘father’. If it’s not… then you marry me.”

Faced with his mockery, Elizabeth didn’t scold him anymore, and nodded emotionlessly: “I’ll wait for you to kneel and call me dad.”

She knew Molly’s personality well, and if it wasn’t Michael’s, she wouldn’t even mention his name.

From Jake’s attitude, it was clear that Michael had no intention of acknowledging the baby.

Since that was the case, she wouldn’t argue with Jake anymore. In her opinion, Jake was still as clueless as he was a few years ago.

Seeing Elizabeth’s calm demeanor, a trace of suspicion appeared on Jake’s face.

Elizabeth had always resisted dating him, yet she readily agreed to this bet now. Was there something fishy about it?

Before he could figure it out, Elizabeth had already left. Jake wanted to follow her but only saw her get into a taxi, leaving him with a cloud of exhaust.

Jake suddenly felt a chill down his spine.

Would he really have to kneel and call her ‘father’ one day?

At the third hospital, Molly was reading the message Damian Thompson had sent her, a cold smile on her lips.

This was forced by Phoebe Belmont and the shareholders on Daniel Thompson. Damian and the others didn’t know until it was too late; by then, Daniel had already agreed in front of everyone.

Not wanting to cause trouble for Damian and the others, Molly directly sent a message in the family chat: 1 won’t be involved in the project anymore, rest assured; I won’t be mad and it’s no big deal.

Joshua Thompson: …

Gillian Thompson: I’m sorry, sister, I didn’t know it would turn out like this. Dad@Daniel Thompson, you better have another meeting with the shareholders (pouty face).

Daniel Thompson: It’s complicated. I asked Phoebe Belmont to talk to you, and she’ll explain everything.”

Just as Molly was about to send a message saying it wasn’t necessary, Phoebe had already reached her door.

“I just went to see Gabriel.” Phoebe stood by the door, her tone gentle and polite, “Can I come in?”

Seeing her nod, Phoebe entered with satisfaction, looked around, and told her, “Your VIP room is better than Gabriel’s.’

Molly smiled faintly without responding.

Phoebe handed her the document: “We’ve decided on the East City District for the demolition. The shareholders and 1 agree.” East City District?

So all her previous suggestions were rejected?

Molly glanced at her lightly and pretended not to see the document, indifferently saying, “I’m not involved in the project. It’s up to you.”

Completely uninvolved?

Phoebe’s face suddenly turned ugly..
