Watching them walk by, Molly Walker smirked.

From today onwards, people would no longer refer to her as Michael

Gallagher’s ex-wife, but the fourth young lady of the Thompson family.

The Thompson family’s villa was huge, with a first-floor hall big enough to

accommodate hundreds of people, resembling a medieval European castle.

Those who were not previously qualified to attend Thompson family banquets were now invited, creating a bustling and excited crowd.

Though Daniel Thompson was the richest man, he rarely threw such extravagant parties. Perhaps something significant was about to happen.

Lucy Thompson was surrounded by people asking her about the gossip.

Basking in the glory of the Thompson surname, Lucy was delighted by all the attention.

“Is it true that Uncle Thompson is hosting this banquet because of Ivy Thompson?”

Lucy nodded her head, “Yes, Ivy has been found, and today is the reunion between my uncle and cousin.”

“I heard that Ivy Thompson was once Michael Gallagher’s ex-wife…

Before the gossiper could finish, Lucy interrupted: “You must be talking about Molly Walker, right? How could a person like her be my cousin? What are you thinking!

“Cousin Ivy came from studying abroad and is Cousin Gabriel’s classmate.

She’s not someone that just anybody could pretend to be.”

After Lucy finished speaking, people seemed to have an epiphany. She was part of the Thompson family, and her words were convincing.

The news that Molly Walker was Ivy Thompson had already spread, but everyone was skeptical since the situation seemed too coincidental.

The Thompson family spent so much money looking for Ivy, and she turned out to be right under their noses. This ridiculous outcome not only slapped the Gallagher family in the face but also the Thompson family. Lucy’s words put some people’s gossiping minds at ease.

“So, is it true that Jeremy Norman will marry Ivy Thompson?” Another gossip lover asked.

“Jeremy Norman!” Someone screamed, “The one from Capital City’s Norman family? He’s here in Sunnydale?”

“He has indeed arrived, but I don’t know who he’s marrying.”

Lucy had her own thoughts. She shared the same last name, and it wasn’t necessarily true that Jeremy Norman had to be with Ivy.

Jeremy Norman was from a prestigious family in Capital City. She had seen him on television before, and his appearance was no worse than a celebrity. His family background was great, and he was highly educated. At 23, he had already completed his Ph.D., studied abroad for two years, and at 26, he was already representing the Norman family, attending banquets and negotiating projects.

If she could climb up to the Norman family, she would no longer have to worry about her future or the family business. She knew that her current connections in high society solely relied on her Thompson surname, which was both her blessing and her sorrow.

Not just Lucy, but also Isabelle and other socialites shared this thought. Even if they couldn’t hook up with Jeremy Norman, what if they became friends with benefits? It would only bring benefits and no harm to their families.

Seeing Gillian Thompson trying to distance herself, the tactful Isabelle didn’t approach her. Instead, she went to find Michael.

Since the last time she almost had an intimate encounter with Michael, he had been distant and never mentioned their marriage again. However, she wasn’t angry. She was now on top of the world, and everything seemed to be going smoothly for her.

It was normal for Michael to be angry about what happened that day, but she would find a way to make him not angry anymore.

“Michael.” Isabelle approached him, “Shall we dance together?”

There were many couples dancing in the ballroom, and she was eager to join

in.

Michael didn’t say anything, but Jake Leaford, who was next to him, teased with a smile, “Michael doesn’t like to dance. How about I dance with you?” Dancing with Jake Leaford? The news headlines would be interesting.

Isabelle declined awkwardly, “Thank you, but if Michael isn’t dancing, then I won’t either.’

Seeing that she was not leaving, Jake Leaford wanted to tactfully leave, but when he met Michael’s eyes, he reluctantly stayed.

Big brother, if you want to chase your ex-wife, don’t use me as a shield!

With Jake Leaford still present, there were some things Isabelle couldn’t say, but no matter how many hints she gave, he just wouldn’t leave.

Isabelle gave up and simply treated Jake Leaford as if he were invisible.

“Michael, our family has signed a cooperation agreement with the Thompson family. We’ve secured a billion-dollar deal.”

Michael’s gaze grew deeper.

At that time, Molly Walker was determined to ruin the cooperation, and he even tried to persuade her not to mess things up. Yet, in the end, the Richardsons still cooperated with the Thompsons.

If this were before, he would have said congratulations openly, but now, his first thought was whether Molly would be hurt or upset.

Seeing Michael not saying anything, Isabelle felt as if a bucket of cold water had been poured over her.

“You’ve continued to cooperate with the Thompson family?” The most surprised person was Jake Leaford. Wasn’t it said that Molly Walker was Ivy Thompson? Why did the Thompson family cooperate with the Richardsons instead? Could it be that she wasn’t actually Ivy?

“It was Gabriel who helped. She couldn’t stand Molly Walker deliberately ruining the cooperation, so she helped me and spoke to Uncle Thompson about continuing the cooperation.”

Isabelle finished speaking coldly, and Jake Leaford quickly said, “Wasn’t it

Joshua Thompson who ruined the cooperation? How did it become Molly Walker?”

“Why would Joshua Thompson have any grudge against me and ruin the cooperation?” Isabelle fiercely retorted.

As soon as her words fell, another sarcastic voice said, “No grudge? Isabelle, can you say that with a clear conscience?”

Not far from them, Joshua Thompson, Molly Walker, and Damian Thompson approached together.

The appearance of Joshua and Molly together caused quite a stir.

Who was this girl, and why had they never seen her before?

Dressed in a stunning custom high-end black gown, her shapely figure with eye-catching curves, and beautiful face, their eyes were fixated on her. She stood between the two Thompson brothers, and she looked completely at ease.

Seeing this protective posture, could she be Ivy Thompson?

Seeing Joshua and Molly, Isabelle’s face suddenly turned pale, especially since the words “no grudge” made her extremely flustered.

That person was already dead. Even if Molly accused her, there would be no evidence.

Isabelle’s panicked heart soon calmed down.

“Third son of the Thompson family, are you implying… that Isabelle has a grudge with you?”

The panicking Isabelle didn’t escape Jake Leaford’s eyes, and he fearlessly continued the conversation.

Isabelle’s face turned deathly pale, and she looked at Molly Walker quickly.

Seeing that Molly didn’t speak, Isabelle’s heart didn’t calm down. For some reason, she felt that Joshua was looking at her strangely.

Gillian Thompson’s face also turned pale. She fiercely gripped the wheelchair handles.

She had been back for so long, and her eldest brother and third brother hadn’t shown any support. If it weren’t for her second brother’s constant presence, she would have thought she had been abandoned by the Thompson family..
