Chapter 215: Chapter 215: Blinded by Greed

Translator: 549690339

Amanda Leaford looked at Damian Thompson and asked in a deep voice, “What’s going on?”

Before Damian could speak, Joshua Thompson jumped in and answered, “What else could it be? Gillian Thompson has done something meritorious!”

He snorted coldly, his fearless smile curving, “How come all the good things are Gillian’s, and the bad ones fall on Fourth Sister? Haven’t you ever thought about it seriously? Some things are too coincidental to be coincidences.”

“What coincidence? Are there so many coincidences in this world?” Joshua’s unselfish appearance infuriated Daniel Thompson.

“Do you know what Gillian Thompson ” Joshua was about to say it directly, but Molly Walker stopped him.

She gently lifted her chin, her brown pupils clean and pure, her bright red lips slightly hooked, and met Daniel Thompson’s probing gaze with a frank smile. “If you have anything to say, just say it. I’m all ears.”

This indifferent and nonchalant attitude seemed like an open provocation to Daniel Thompson.

“What kind of attitude is this?” Daniel Thompson was furious, and his shoulders couldn’t help but tremble with anger.

“I am what you are.” Molly Walker smirked, laughing fearlessly.

Daniel Thompson had never been treated like this before. Even the boldest of his children like Joshua were always beaten by him. Now, being questioned by his own daughter like this felt like a direct challenge to his authority.

His anger seethed, his palm raised high and swung down toward Molly Walker’s white face.

Just at the critical moment, a person suddenly rushed over and blocked for Molly Walker.

With a “smack” sound, Daniel Thompson’s eyes widened, and he couldn’t withdraw his hand in time, hitting another person’s face instead

Amanda Leaford’s face began to swell.

“Amanda!” Daniel Thompson hurriedly touched Amanda Leaford’s face in panic.

Amanda Leaford turned her face away, widened the distance between them, and her cold eyes were filled with disappointment.

“Had enough?” Amanda Leaford stared at him hatefully.

Molly Walker anxiously held Amanda Leaford’s face and asked worriedly, “Mom, are you okay?”

She touched Amanda Leaford’s face, wanting to touch it but afraid to, feeling heartache and sadness.

She didn’t expect Amanda Leaford to stand in front of her.

Daniel Thompson was at a loss for words, the buzzing in his head echoing.

“Since this home is not a home, I don’t think there’s any need to stay.” Amanda Leaford turned and took Molly Walker’s hand, “You come to Capital City with me, your grandparents are still alive, and they’ve always wanted to see you.”

Hearing that Amanda Leaford wanted to return to her maternal relatives’ home, Daniel Thompson’s lips trembled, and his face instantly turned ugly.

Amanda Leaford’s maternal relatives were among the top-ranked aristocratic families in Capital City. Her parents were still living, and she had several capable brothers. If they knew that Amanda was beaten back by him, he probably wouldn’t have a good life either.

“Amanda, I’m sorry. I was just careless  You don’t have to go back, right?”

Daniel Thompson looked miserable, begging bitterly.

Every time Amanda Leaford went to Capital City, she would stay for at least half a year. The most important thing is that there is still an unmarried eyesore man there. Amanda has finally recovered from her illness, and they haven’t enjoyed their married life yet. How could they live separately?

“Didn’t you say before that it’s not good for a husband and wife to live separately? Why now ”

“Isn’t it a good idea to live separately? It’s just convenient for you to be intimate with other women.” Amanda Leaford’s words had deep implications, and Daniel Thompson’s face turned green and white.

He knew that Amanda Leaford was still bothered by the incident with Phoebe Belmont that day.

In front of so many people, Daniel Thompson didn’t dare to explain too much, and said with a sad face, “Amanda, the kids are here  Don’t make me lose face too much.”

“Do you know losing face? Have you ever given others face?” Amanda Leaford asked coldly, “Daniel Thompson, you have changed since you’ve grown older.”

Hearing the phrase “grown older”, Daniel Thompson’s head buzzed, his eyebrows frowned and his face turned pale.

He was already older than Amanda Leaford. Over the years, Amanda Leaford has not been worldly due to her illness, and her appearance seemed to have frozen in time, widening the distance between them.

Now hearing Amanda Leaford say that he was old, Daniel Thompson’s mind snapped like a broken string.

“Yes, I’m old! Are you fed up with me?” Daniel Thompson’s face flushed red and the veins in his temples throbbed, “She ruined the entire company, and I’m wrong to teach her a lesson? Amanda Leaford, as the wife of the CEO, how can you not distinguish right from wrong! How did you become more ignorant than you were when you were young!”

“I don’t care about your company or anything, I just know she’s my daughter, whom I gave birth to after ten months of pregnancy. She has been wandering outside for over twenty years, and she’s finally come back. We can’t be too good to her. Daniel Thompson, have you forgotten what you said before?” Amanda Leaford stared at him, “You said family is greater than everything and you would be willing to give up the entire company for Ivy. What about now?”

She looked at him bitterly, the light in her eyes gradually dimming: “It’s not me who has changed, but you. Daniel Thompson, you have been blinded by worldly affairs, and your heart has been covered with fat!”

Daniel Thompson felt his blood boiling, his face flushed with anger.

He had indeed said those words before.

But times had changed, and had he known his lost daughter would grow up this way, he would never have said such words.

Now, Amanda Leaford saying these things was like slapping his face.

“Let’s go!” Seeing Daniel’s face turning pale and then red again, Amanda’s expression was icy cold. She grabbed Molly Walker and looked at her sons, “Are you coming with me or staying here?”

They were going to separate!

Perhaps it was not just a separation but a divorce.

Joshua Thompson and Damian Thompson looked at each other, uncertain of what to do. Was this the time they needed to choose sides?

They were all grown up now, so asking them who they wanted to follow seemed a bit late, didn’t it?

“Dad, Mom!” cried Gillian Thompson, limping out of the elevator. “Mom, don’t leave   ”

She leaned on her crutch and struggled to walk to Amanda, “It’s all my fault. If I hadn’t been so meddling and called those company bosses, Dad wouldn’t have been angry with my sister!”

“If I hadn’t made those calls, my sister wouldn’t have been portrayed this way   ”

She didn’t say the words “incompetent” out loud.

Gillian glanced at Molly with a wronged expression.

Molly remained silent, but her smile was cold.

Gillian was so sure of herself, putting the blame on Molly when she hadn’t done the deed herself, who had given her such confidence?

Seeing Gillian’s shameless, green tea bitch act was truly an eye-opener for Molly.

Molly stared at Gillian with keen interest, forcing down the rage boiling inside her.

She wanted to see what lies this woman could come up with next!

Everyone could tell that Gillian had evil intentions, but only Daniel fell for her tricks.

“How can we blame you? Is being exceptional a crime?” Daniel sighed deeply, his expression full of meaning as he glanced at Molly. He considered whether he should give her shares in the company.

There was a saying that a dragon has nine sons, each unique in their own way. Some people were just destined to excel from birth.

In the aspect of dealing with people, Ivy clearly fell short compared to Gillian.

“Never mind, let’s put these things aside for now and have dinner.” Daniel glanced at the elevator behind Gillian and asked, “Where’s your aunt?”

“Aunt   ”

“I apologize, Mr. Thompson. I have something to attend to at home and need to leave first,” Xander Moore looked at the message on his cell phone and cold sweat appeared on his forehead.

That damn woman, she sneaked away!

Seeing Daniel frown, Gillian hurried to explain, “My aunt suddenly received a call saying there was an emergency at home, so she left early. She said she would have dinner with us another time.”

“In that case, we won’t insist on her staying. Bring my car around,” He called out to the driver, who quickly walked in.

“Send Gillian’s uncle home, make sure he reaches safely, and give him one of the gifts from my car.”

The gifts he had stockpiled in his car were all the same—cigarettes, wine, and a check.

Once Xander Moore left, Daniel looked at Gillian kindly, “I used to think your character had changed for the worse and that you were not worthy of being my daughter. But now it seems you are the most suitable to be my daughter.”

These words were daggers to the heart.

Did he mean that Gillian was suitable but Ivy was not?

Joshua Thompson laughed, his laugh filled with scorn and mockery.

“You really should open your eyes wide and see clearly who is more fitting to be your daughter!”

He walked over to Gillian, his eyes filled with rage and a cold smile, “Gillian, I’ll give you a chance to tell the truth here.”

“Are those calls really made by you?”
