Chapter 531: Chapter 526 Two Sisters, Choose One_1
“Did you not arrange for those SWAT officers to be here?” Nicholas Thompson’s tone was somber, “I knew you were capable, but I didn’t realize you could command these people.”
“You’re really overthinking things.” Molly Walker spread her hands helplessly, “Our company ‘W’ is just a regular company, with varied business operations. We’re not powerful enough to command these people.”
However, no matter how she explained, Nicholas Thompson did not believe her. He insisted that she had called these people over.
“Even though you saved Gillian, if the baby inside her has any issues, I’m afraid you’ll have to take responsibility.”
She had to take responsibility?
“What am I responsible for? Supporting her or supporting the baby in her stomach?” Molly Walker found it funny, “As I said, I didn’t call these people. If you don’t believe me, you can ask the SWAT team. Also…,” her tone grew stern, “if your actions harm the entire Thompson family, I hope you have a way to atone when the time comes.”
After saying that, she turned and walked away.
But she had only taken a few steps before Ethan Hopkins jumped down from the ambulance and quickly moved to block her path.
“Ivy Thompson!” Ethan Hopkins grabbed the collar of her clothes, “Very good. You were pretending to be dead earlier and now you appear again. If anything happens to Gillian or the baby, I will never let you off!”
Ethan Hopkins was tall, at least a head taller than Molly Walker, and with his abrupt force, Molly Walker was taken aback before she even had a chance to react.
Molly Walker coughed, gradually feeling some difficulty in breathing.
Ethan Hopkins’ eyes were bloodshot, and with a squeeze of his fingers, he ferociously choked her neck.
In front of everyone, he was clearly letting his emotions cloud his judgment.
“Ethan Hopkins, what are you doing?” Nicholas Thompson did not expect Ethan Hopkins would do such a thing, his face paled, “Let her go now!”
While he was concerned about Gillian and not fond of Molly Walker, he would not allow anyone to bully her.
Ethan Hopkins’ action had crossed his line.
“Nicholas Thompson, you are Gillian’s brother, not this bitch’s protector.” Ethan Hopkins no longer minced words. He stared at Ethan Hopkins, his gaze intense, “You will have to choose between your two sisters eventually, won’t you?”
His words made Nicholas Thompson’s face turn extremely sullen.
“It’s none of your business how I deal with things, Ethan Hopkins, right now, immediately, let go of her!”
Looking at the somewhat pale face of Molly Walker, Nicholas Thompson’s heart was gripped, he even started to regret helping Ethan Hopkins.
All this disaster started because of him.
He should not have called Fourth Sister.
This Ethan Hopkins was basically a madman.
Ethan Hopkins was indeed mad, but this was all because of Gillian.
Had Gillian not acted like a madwoman and tried to jump off the building, he would not be so frantic.
Gillian went mad first, and it seemed the baby might not be saved, all his effort might be in vain, which drove him insane.
If Molly Walker had not meddled, everything should have run smoothly.
As he watched her face gradually turn white, a hint of hatred emerged in his heart.
If only…the woman in front of him would die.
If she died, there would be no obstacles left.
He could cooperate with Samuel Richardson, he might even be able to take over the Thompson Group and become the richest man in Sunnydale.
The evil in Ethan Hopkins’s heart was growing deeper, and his grip tightened on Molly.
Just then, a fist landed on his face.
The strength in Ethan Hopkins’s hand loosened suddenly, and Molly Walker finally managed to take a breath.
Before he could see who it was, Ethan Hopkins felt his hand being tightly gripped by someone.
With a “crack” sound, his hand was dislocated…
A heart-piercing pain spread throughout his body, and he couldn’t help moaning in pain.
Against the light, the man’s cold and stern brow fell into his eyes.
“Gal…”
The man’s handsome eyebrows expressed a fierce loathing, his eyes were like a knife, looking at him as though he was a dead man.
It was Michael Gallagher.
Suddenly, Ethan Hopkins snapped back to reality.
Michael Gallagher’s lips were naturally upturned, but now they were pressed into a flat line. Rage and coldness filled his eyes; he looked like a trigger-happy killer.
Ethan Hopkins suddenly remembered the media’s description of Michael Gallagher.
An irreverent, audacious rich kid.
If he sets his mind to torment someone, he could make their life a living nightmare.
Michael Gallagher showed no mercy, twisting the joint just at the right spot with clinical precision, almost as if he understood the bone structure.
His hand was numb now.
He knew what Michael Gallagher intended to do.
Michael Gallagher would disable the very hand that had touched Molly Walker.
Ethan Hopkins regretted. He shouldn’t have acted impulsively, laying hands on Molly Walker.
Molly Walker, looking at the sudden appearance of Michael Gallagher, felt slightly dizzy.
Michael Gallagher had said he would come for her later, she didn’t expect it to be this soon.
Nicholas Thompson watched as Michael Gallagher snapped Ethan Hopkins’s arm effortlessly, his eyebrows furrowed, but ultimately, he said nothing.
This time, Ethan Hopkins deserved it, even if this harsh punishment seemed light.
“Michael Gallagher, so many people saw you breaking my hand. If something happens to me, do you think you can escape?” Ethan Hopkins, gritting his teeth against the unbearable pain, his face alternating between pallor and lividity.
“I’ve no intention of escaping, only to disable your hand.” Michael Gallagher retorted unabashedly, using even more force.
Ethan Hopkins tried to retaliate, but found his hands were strengthless. His face visibly paled.
They were both men, yet within a few seconds, Michael Gallagher had made him powerless.
Molly Walker watched the scene silently, touching her neck.
“Are you alright?” Nicholas Thompson approached and asked, his anger replaced with concern, “Your neck is quite red and the hospital is just nearby. You should get it checked.”
“No need.” Molly Walker dropped her hand, her gaze falling on Michael Gallagher.
She knew Michael Gallagher was very angry because of Ethan Hopkins’s unexpected behavior.
But she had no idea how the media would report on Michael Gallagher’s actions.
Michael Gallagher left Ethan Hopkins and strode towards her: “How are you, any pain anywhere?”
“My neck is a bit uncomfortable.” Molly Walker responded softly, a mild reproach on her face.
It’s only now that she realized her neck was indeed uncomfortable.
Hearing her discomfort, Michael Gallagher immediately panicked, picked her up in his arms and headed to the hospital.
Nicholas Thompson saw this, his face darkened even more.
His earlier concern now felt like he was using his warm face to grace a cold butt.
Molly Walker was open in front of Michael Gallagher, yet she lied to him without a change in expression. Clearly, she doesn’t want any connection with him.
But he indeed has no right to care for her.
Just ten minutes ago, he was questioning her for cornering Gillian Thompson, but now it seemed like Gillian Thompson and Ethan Hopkins were actually cornering her.
Ethan Hopkins was sitting on the ground in agony, but everyone around him was merely watching the spectacle, no one stepped forward.
“What a deplorable guy, daring to hit a woman.”
“Fortunately, someone punished him for his deeds, otherwise I would not have been able to vent such anger.”
“His act of choking that beautiful woman earlier, made him look like a cold-blooded killer.”
“Maybe he really has a criminal record.”
…
People around were accusing Ethan Hopkins.
After all, the scene where he was choking someone was extremely shocking.
A pair of feet stopped in front of Ethan Hopkins. He looked up, the sunlight was dazzling, but it was enough for him to see the person in front of him.
“Mr. Thompson…”, Ethan Hopkins tried to change his words immediately, “Second brother…”
Against the light, Ethan Hopkins failed to see Nicholas Thompson’s expression, but he could feel his annoyance.
This “second brother” seemed to remind Nicholas Thompson of something.
Nicholas Thompson’s face gradually changed from indifference to disgust.
He slowly squatted down, looking at Ethan Hopkins expressionlessly.
“What you did to my sister just now, was that intentional or an accident?”
