Chapter 481: Chapter 476: Third Brother in This Sentence
Looking at Joshua Thompson’s rage-filled appearance, Jerry Jenkins knew that he must have overheard the conversation.
Thinking of Zoey Lambert, Jerry Jenkins remained silent.
He and Zoey Lambert were also set up by others, and this “setup” clearly triggered Joshua Thompson’s anger.
“Didn’t the third son of the Thompson family just get married? What, are you also interested in this?”
Joshua Thompson clenched Jerry Jenkins’s collar, his teeth gritted, “Jerry Jenkins, don’t beat around the bush with me. You just said you wanted to matchmake Jeremy Norman and Ivy, how do you plan to do that? Huh? Are you going to drug them again?”
“Aside from using these dirty tricks, what else can you do?!” Joshua Thompson lashed out and punched Jerry Jenkins in the face.
With a “clang”, Jerry Jenkins fell to the floor, bringing silence to the entire Tea House.
All eyes were on them.
Jerry gave a vicious grin, getting up from the ground, wiping his mouth with his thumb.
“Third son of the Thompson family, I won’t strike back out of deference to Zoey Lambert’s. After all…perhaps we’ll be relatives in the future…”
These words sent Joshua Thompson into a rage, and he was about to strike back when Riley Wallace stopped him.
“Move!” Joshua Thompson growled.
Riley Wallace smiled, “Don’t use your hands, it hurts.”
Watching Riley Wallace mediate, Molly Walker quickly calmed down.
But Riley Wallace baffled Molly Walker with her next move.
She picked up a stick and handed it to Joshua Thompson: “Force is mutual. If you want to hit, use this.”
Seeing this sturdy long stick, Jerry Jenkins turned pale as he grew more alert.
He was firmly fixated on Joshua Thompson, ready to make a move.
Joshua Thompson swung the stick around a few times and smirked, “If I hurt him, I’ll just compensate for the medical fees, no matter how much.”
“If there’s anything I have in abundance, it’s money.”
“Joshua Thompson! If I don’t agree to settle, you’ll end up in jail.” Jerry Jenkins took a step back, horror showing in his eyes.
Only at this moment did he seem to taste real fear.
For someone like Joshua Thompson, perhaps he really is capable of anything.
Seeing Jerry Jenkins take a step back, Joshua Thompson grinned, his teeth glistening.
“Quit targeting Zoey Lambert, or the first thing this stick will hit next time will be your head.”
Joshua Thompson threw the stick in front of him.
Jerry Jenkins looked at the stick, remaining silent.
First it was Michael Gallagher issuing threats, and now, it was Joshua Thompson.
He had recently run into a string of bad luck.
“Joshua Thompson.” Jerry Jenkins looked up, a determined look in his eyes, “I truly like Zoey Lambert, it’s not just a game to me. I know I’ve resorted to many dirty tactics. In the future, I want to pursue her in an honest and straightforward manner. But I hope you won’t stop me.”
“It’s too late.”
Molly Walker came over, her voice calm.
“Jerry Jenkins, you are not qualified to pursue her. Cousin Zoey despises you so deeply that aside from hatred, the only thing she feels for you is fear.”
Her voice was as gentle as water, like a babbling brook.
“Also, you better put away your vile and dirty thoughts. I have no interest in any man besides Michael Gallagher.”
After saying this, Molly Walker immediately thought of Jeremy Norman.
Now that Jeremy Norman has developed an interest in someone else, she must not hold him back.
As for this Jerry Jenkins…
Recalling what he had said to Jeremy Norman, Molly Walker frowned.
Jerry Jenkins is unpredictable and insidious, if they didn’t get rid of this major trouble, the entire Thompson family would face challenges from foes everywhere.
He’s someone who seeks an eye for an eye, if they don’t take him down hard, he will stir up trouble again in the future.
Jerry Jenkins kept silent, feeling unlucky.
How could they bump into each other in such a place? The Capital City isn’t that small, is it?
Realizing that Jerry Jenkins still planned on matchmaking Jeremy Norman and his sister, Joshua Thompson got angrier and angrier.
He didn’t dislike Jeremy Norman, but Jerry Jenkins is a bad guy, his matchmaking methods were likely to involve dirty tricks.
Joshua Thompson was itching to beat up Jerry Jenkins again.
Molly Walker and Riley Wallace glanced at each other and quickly agreed to take Joshua Thompson away from the scene.
Outside the Tea House, Michael Gallagher stood by a car, casting occasional glances towards the Tea House.
Groups of girls surrounded him, taking pictures.
“Oh my God, his aura is amazing.”
“Your face is so small, you look a little familiar. Are you a celebrity?”
“He’s so handsome, I really want to ask for his number.”
…
The Tea House is located downtown and near the biggest shopping district. People come and go, there are many people in the bustling streets, and there are also many media people filming videos.
Michael Gallagher looks at these people, his handsome face a bit cold.
He lit a cigarette and sat in his car.
Thinking of something, he opened the window and put out the cigarette.
He was here to pick up Molly Walker, he couldn’t let her smell the smoke.
As more people gathered around, Michael’s brow furrowed. However, when he saw the slender figure emerging from the Tea House, a hint of a smile finally appeared on his face.
He opened the car door, got out, and walked towards Molly.
“You… hello…” Suddenly, a small figure blocked his path.
“Sir, do you remember…” The girl’s face turned bright red, but the man in front of her didn’t even glance at her, bypassing her and walking in the other direction.
The girl looked slightly embarrassed. Closing her eyes, she suddenly fell forward.
This angle was aimed straight at Michael Gallagher’s chest.
If he was a normal person, he should’ve tried to catch her.
But Michael’s pace was quite fast.
The moment the girl fell, Michael had already walked far away.
The crowd was shocked.
Molly Walker watched the girl fall, and stared at Michael in surprise: “What…?”
“Are you ready to go?” Michael took her hand and said to Joshua Thompson, who was standing nearby with a playful look on his face, “Third Brother, I’m taking her home now.”
Third Brother…
Joshua Thompson was taken aback for a moment.
Michael Gallagher should logically be older than him.
But this title “Third Brother” was more satisfying than his millions of dollars’ car.
It felt as if he was suddenly superior to Michael.
Joshua Thompson admitted, at this moment, he felt content.
“Alright, let’s go. I should also go out and have fun with my wife.”
Joshua Thompson waved his hand good-naturedly.
At this moment, the girl who was pretending to be unconscious on the ground could hardly keep up the act.
Why didn’t the trick work this time?
What should she do now? Should she get up by herself?
Looking at Molly Walker standing beside Michael Gallagher, many girls quietly compared themselves with her and immediately became discouraged.
They couldn’t compete with such a beautiful woman.
It’s a pity that such a great man was already taken.
“Hey, why are you guys just standing there watching?” A middle-aged man stepped forward and angrily pointed at Michael Gallagher.
“I don’t know how to save her,” Michael responded calmly.
“You don’t know how to do mouth-to-mouth resuscitation?” the middle-aged man asked exasperatedly.
“I can’t.”
Michael glanced at the woman on the ground and showed some impatience.
This woman’s methods were too clumsy.
He had seen these tactics countless times on the streets.
“Alright, fine. I’ll do it.” The middle-aged man rolled up his sleeves, mumbling as he walked towards the woman, “These youngsters nowadays, utterly useless. It’s always up to kind-hearted people like me… ”
Hearing this, the woman could no longer keep her act up.
Before any artificial respiration could be done, her eyes slowly fluttered open, pretending to wake up groggily.
Seeing her recover so quickly, the middle-aged man was surprised.
The woman quickly stood up, glaring at Michael with teeth clenched, “Why didn’t you catch me just now?”
With this outburst, it seemed as if she was blaming Michael.
Molly Walker clung tightly to Michael’s hand and snorted coldly, “Because your acting skills are too poor.”
Falling perfectly into someone’s arms is too obvious.
“But, you used to always catch me…” the woman looked at Michael sadly, “Michael, what happened to you? It’s as if, you don’t remember me anymore…”
