Chapter 53: Ivy, Don’t Be Afraid

“She’s Ivy, and I don’t want you to bully her!” Amanda Leaford said astonishingly.
Daniel Thompson was shocked: “What did you say?”
Gillian Thompson watched everything, biting her teeth in anger.
Why couldn’t she see that Molly Walker was bullied just like her mom when they were both hurt?
Had she, who had been accompanying her for so long, lost out to Molly Walker?
Her body trembled, and tears filled her eyes.
“Ivy, don’t be afraid. Mom is here.” Amanda held Molly’s hand, protecting her firmly.
Looking at the mentally disordered woman who still wanted to protect herself, Molly’s cold heart was warmed up again.
It was nice to have a family member who still liked her in this world.
The sudden scene surprised the Thompson family, making them wonder if Molly Walker was really Ivy Thompson, even as the mentally ill Mrs. Thompson recognized her as Ivy.
Daniel Thompson was at a loss, but Damian Thompson was not surprised.
That Molly Walker was Ivy had already become an ironclad fact. Ivy was born from her mom’s womb after ten months of pregnancy. It was destiny that her mom could recognize her.
This further confirmed that Molly was Ivy.
“If she’s Ivy, then what’s the deal with Lola Jones’ DNA test?” someone whispered, voicing the doubt of everyone.
Gillian Thompson lowered her eyes, not changing her expression.
This DNA test was real, even if someone tried to dig into it, they couldn’t find anything because she had used her second brother’s hair for the test. Moreover, she had given a large sum of money to the other party. As long as there was money, the results could be obtained.
“Auntie’s words can’t necessarily be trusted, don’t forget that she’s mentally disordered and cannot be used as a basis for judgment. In my opinion, we must rely on the DNA test results.” The person who said this was Lucy Thompson.
Molly Walker is Ivy Thompson? What a joke!
Lucy Thompson scorned inwardly but didn’t show it on her face.
“Since there’s a DNA test, it’s obvious that Lola Jones is Ivy Thompson.” Lucy
Thompson pulled Lola Jones out casually, “Look, Lola looks so much like my
Uncle, where in the world is this kind of coincidence? They look so alike, the DNA test is also not a problem, what else is there to doubt?”
Yes, Lola Jones looked so much like Daniel Thompson.
Because they looked alike, no one doubted the truth, not even Daniel Thompson himself.
As for Molly, she did not look like Daniel Thompson or Mrs. Thompson. It was impossible for her to be Ivy Thompson.
Just when everyone thought Amanda Leaford’s words were just nonsense from a mentally disordered person, a bodyguard in black rushed in.
“Mr. Thompson.” The bodyguard quickly walked to Daniel Thompson, “The third successor has awakened.”
“Joshua is awake?” Daniel Thompson’s face was filled with joy.
“Yes, the young master also asked me to give you the phone.” The bodyguard handed over his cell phone, and Joshua Thompson’s dissatisfied voice came out, “Hey, you old man, you’re not holding a family reunion banquet for Lola Jones, are you?”
Everyone could hear Joshua Thompson’s voice loud and clear through the speakerphone.
Daniel Thompson’s face couldn’t help but tighten, as if he knew what Joshua was going to say. He immediately walked towards a small room nearby, waving to Damian Thompson and Nicholas Thompson as he did so.
As the three entered the small room, Daniel Thompson sighed in relief, saying in a deep voice, “You can speak now.”
“What? Afraid of losing face so you hid in the small room?” Joshua Thompson’s contemptuous tone made Daniel Thompson’s old face turn red.
“Stop teasing your father, brat. If you have something to say, say it quickly.”
Today’s twists and turns had left Daniel Thompson with nowhere to hide his embarrassment.
As a successful entrepreneur, he was like a fool when it came to identifying his family. In the end, he had been too reckless.
After so many years of searching, he couldn’t believe he had found Ivy, and at the same time, he wanted to confirm her identity as soon as possible.
Like an old tree that has been dry for years, it absorbs water crazily when rooted, no longer caring whether the water is clear or muddy.
“Father, as long as you didn’t publicly acknowledge Lola Jones as your daughter, you haven’t lost face because Molly Walker is your daughter.” Joshua Thompson said a few words, already somewhat panting, but obviously still wanting to persist, “I got your paternity test results with Molly, and I personally delivered the items for testing, there’s no mistake, whether you want to admit it or not, she’s my sister.” “Dad, congratulations, you finally found Ivy.”
Upon hearing his son’s confirmation, Daniel Thompson was both nervous and excited.
Fate had played one joke after another on him, and now it finally gave him a good outcome.
“Good, good, very good!” Daniel Thompson cried with tears, “You little brat, you finally did something worthwhile.”
He thought his son was just an extravagant youngster with no skills, but it turned out he had done so much behind the scenes.
With Molly’s identity finally confirmed, Damian Thompson’s tense heart relaxed a bit.
His efforts had not been in vain.
Hearing this, Nicholas Thompson’s expression was the most awkward.
If he had known Molly was Ivy, he would never have treated her that way.
He didn’t know if she would forgive him.
Nicholas Thompson lowered his eyes nervously, wishing he could rush out and apologize to Molly immediately.
Damian Thompson glanced at him and saw through his thoughts in an instant.
This younger brother’s flaw was his stubbornness and impulsiveness. He didn’t think things through before acting, which was very much like their father, especially when it came to family matters, he would lose clarity of thought.
To put it nicely, he was protective; to put it bluntly, he was foolish.
“No wonder you asked me not to announce it in advance, you little brat, did you know about it all along? You deliberately kept us in the dark, causing so much trouble.” Daniel Thompson glared angrily.
“If I hadn’t kept it from you, I would have been killed by a car before getting the result.” Joshua Thompson’s voice was as cold as ice, “We’ve been searching for Ivy for so many years, and she’s actually in Sunnydale City. Haven’t you ever suspected that someone has been blocking us from finding her all this time?”
As Joshua Thompson spoke, not only Daniel Thompson, but also Damian Thompson and Nicholas Thompson’s faces changed dramatically.
Yes, they had been searching for so long, and in the end, she was right in their own city. If this got out, no one would believe them, as people who didn’t know the truth would think they hadn’t tried hard enough to find her.
Moreover, as soon as the DNA test result was obtained, he was hit by a car; this was too much of a coincidence.
“Molly said she always thought she was abandoned, so she never thought of looking for her family.”
With Damian Thompson’s words, the room fell silent – so quiet that one could hear a pin drop.
“Investigate.” Daniel Thompson sneered coldly, his eyes blazing with fury, emitting a frightening killing intent, like a sharp knife.
He wanted to see who had the guts to play with the Thompson family.
As they entered the room, the people in the hall continued chatting passionately.
Amanda Leaford acted as if she couldn’t see these people, and sat with Molly on one side.
“Don’t be afraid, I’m here.” Amanda Leaford held her hand, her voice trembling.
Maybe it was because she knew Daniel Thompson and his sons were not there, but Amanda Leaford was so nervous that her body was shaking.
Molly was about to laugh and told her not to be afraid, but Amanda Leaford was the one who was scared first.
“I’m not afraid, they can’t bully me.” In the past, she had stayed low-key because of her status as Mrs. Gallagher, and during her three years of marriage to Michael Gallagher, she’d remained low-key for three years.
However, from the moment she stepped out of the Civil Affairs Bureau, she no longer needed to be low-key.
For those who had bullied her in the past, she would return the favor twofold..
