The Ex-husband Wants to Get Power Every Day After the Divorce

Chapter 176: Don ‘t Care

“I don’t have much of a relationship with her,” Michael Gallagher replied coldly, “Since it’s her own withdrawal, let her be. Start the car.”

The atmosphere in the car was a bit awkward, and the assistant pressed the gas pedal as the car slowly drove away.

Michael Gallagher’s lips were tightly pressed, not knowing what he was thinking about.

In the dimly lit car, Violet Summers saw the scenery outside the window from the corner of her eye, her lips slightly curving upwards.

In Sunnydale City’s Rosewood District.

As Molly Walker exited the elevator, she saw someone crouching at the door.

When Jeremy Norman saw Molly, he quickly raised his head, standing up with a joyous look on his face, “You’re here! I’ve been waiting for you…”

As he saw the person behind Molly, Jeremy’s voice abruptly stopped.

“Miss Walker, is this the place?” The movers holding luggage and bags pointed at the door behind Jeremy and asked.

Molly nodded.

Jeremy hurriedly said, “Don’t move it first.”

He said to the movers, “Sorry, please give me five minutes.”

After saying that, he walked to Molly’s side, his face pleading, “Can you give me five minutes? I need your help with something.”

Molly was silent for a few seconds, seeing him standing there awkwardly, and finally nodded, “Let’s go inside and talk.”

The two entered the house, and to avoid suspicion, they did not close the door.

Jermey Norman stood in the living room, anxiously asking, “Did you voluntarily withdraw from the competition?”

Molly shook her head, “I didn’t withdraw.”

Upon hearing this, Jeremy suddenly realized, “Did Michael Gallagher force you to quit?”

In everyone’s eyes, Violet Summers had a higher chance of winning than Molly, as Violet had experience while Molly was just a newcomer.

Although unsure if it was Michael Gallagher, judging by his attitude…

Molly gave a bitter smile.

She had already fallen out with Michael Gallagher that day. His not wanting her to participate was somewhat reasonable.

However, it was interesting how he quickly turned to Violet Summers.

Thinking of Michael Gallagher’s cold attitude, Molly clenched her hand, “He has his reasons…”

“Originally, Violet Summers was supposed to represent our company in the competition, but she said she was not feeling well and withdrew. I didn’t expect her to go to Michael Gallagher so quickly…” Jeremy paused, “I guess Violet wanted to quit and join the Gallagher Group from the beginning. The reason our company participated in this competition is for my grandmother, who loves jewelry design. After finding out about the situation, she got sick from anger.”

When she thought about it, this was Violet Summers’ scheme, and Molly sneered in her heart.

She knew it was Violet’s scheme, but Michael Gallagher might not necessarily be unaware of it.

Thinking that she couldn’t do anything to Violet Summers now, Molly felt chest pain from anger.

“I know you love jewelry design and have prepared a lot for this competition. I came to ask if you’re interested in representing our Norman family in the competition?” As he said this, Jeremy hurriedly added, “We don’t care about the ranking; I just want my grandmother to have something to look forward to.” Molly’s eyebrows raised slightly, and an idea came to her mind.

If Violet Summers won the competition just like that, Molly would definitely feel indignant.

To teach Violet Summers a lesson, it could be a good opportunity.

“If I participate in the competition on behalf of your family, Michael Gallagher will probably be furious.” Molly’s lip corners lifted, her eyes shining like blooming flowers.

Jeremy’s heart leaped, the corners of his mouth split, revealing two playful fangs, “Do you care about his thoughts?”

“I don’t care.”

He didn’t care about her thoughts, so why would she care about his?

“Alright, I’ll participate in the competition,” Molly’s lips slightly lifted, her eyes curving, “Don’t worry. I’ll try my best to get a good ranking for your family. If not for the first place, at least for our dignity.”

She knew once this incident got out, it would become the talk of the town.

Fortunately, having been through the eye of the storm for so long, she had developed a strong and resilient heart.

“Are you willing?” Jeremy Norman stood up excitedly, grasping her hand,

“Thank you. Now I can explain things to my grandmother.”

Molly Walker pried his hand off and quickly took a step back.

Jeremy’s hand paused, and he awkwardly placed it on the back of his head, stammering, “Right, I’m sorry, I got too excited.”

“It’s alright.” Molly was also startled by her own reaction.

Perhaps due to her pregnancy, she was very reluctant to let the opposite sex get too close to her.

“By the way, don’t move out. You said you wanted to buy this house, right? I’ll give you a 50% discount, and you can consider it your competition reward, alright?”

He originally wanted to say that the entire house would be the reward, but he knew that Molly would refuse if he just gave it to her directly.

Hearing his offer to sell it to her for half price, Molly hesitated for a moment, but eventually nodded.

This was better than him giving it to her outright.

She would make up for the advantage she took by performing well in the competition.

After Jeremy left, an uninvited guest arrived at her home.

Molly had just finished washing up and was wearing her pajamas, her slippers dragging as she walked to the door.

Through the peephole, she saw Violet Summers, clad in a traditional long dress, her posture elegant.

Violet heard footsteps inside the door and smiled, waving hello to the peephole, “Miss Walker, I’m sorry to bother you so late, I came to pick up some things. ”

To pick up things?

Molly raised an eyebrow, her hand on the doorknob, casually twisting it open.

Outside, Violet greeted her with a big smile, “Miss Walker, you took a box of jewelry from Mr. Gallagher before, and now that you’re no longer qualified for the competition, shouldn’t you return these items?”

Violet’s smile was sincere, her mind racing, but her face gave nothing away.

She knew about the bet Molly had made with Michael Gallagher and that since

Molly no longer represented the Gallagher Group in the competition, the jewelry sponsored by Michael should be returned.

Coming to get the items, she hadn’t expected it to be these items.

Molly smiled, her eyes shimmering like stars under the lamplight, “Did

Michael send you?”

Her voice was cold and detached, like a gentle breeze passing over an ice cellar, chilly but pleasant.

Meeting her beautiful eyes, Violet’s heart skipped a beat, and she lowered her gaze, hiding the jealousy inside.

“To have you come and get the things so late at night must have been hard on you.”

Molly smiled charmingly, her eyes never reaching her smile.

She turned around and picked up a box from the coffee table.

Seeing such a large box, Violet’s eyes lit up.

So many!

According to the information she had gathered, many of the items inside were antiques and unique pieces, the kind that would generate a bidding frenzy when auctioned off.

Violet could hardly contain her excitement.

Just as she reached out to take the box, Molly turned and placed it on the shoe cabinet instead when Violet almost touched it.

“Sorry, I mixed my jewelry in with it,” Molly chuckled, her beautiful eyes flickering with apology, “Why don’t you call Michael now and ask him how many items are in the box?”

“Don’t worry, even if he doesn’t remember, the person who bought them will.”

Upon hearing this, Violet’s face turned deathly pale.

Call Michael?

Michael didn’t even know about this!
