Seeing her cry, Joshua Thompson’s eyes reddened as well. He moved closer and sat at her bedside: “We didn’t want to tell you because we were afraid it would upset you.”
Upon hearing this, Molly Walker’s body trembled, her eyes widening in shock and tears falling uncontrollably.
“Where is he? I want to see him.”
Upon hearing this, Damian Thompson furrowed his brow, and beneath his gold-rimmed glasses, his eyes were incredibly calm: “Wait until you’re better, and we’ll take you to see.”
He didn’t say where to see, nor did he tell her if he was dead or alive.
Molly lowered her eyes and did not continue to ask questions.
During these days, Elizabeth Aitken had come to see her. Jeremy Norman had also come to see her.
The day before she was discharged from the hospital, Jake Leaford arrived.
The once dashing scion looked much haggard, as if he hadn’t completely recovered from a certain state.
Seeing Molly, he coldly handed her a briefcase: “It’s yours.”
Molly lifted her eyelids, glanced at the briefcase, and her fingers tightened, not daring to take it.
The Thompson family had all come. Damian Thompson and Joshua Thompson, in particular, were unable to hide their anxiety when they saw Jake Leaford approach.
Jake looked around at the people in the room, saw their nervousness, and a mocking smile curled up at the corner of his lips.
He looked at Molly, his handsome brows and eyes filled with bitterness and ferocity, not showing any politeness in his words, “Why don’t you take it? What are you afraid of?”
Molly pressed her lips together: “What is it?”
Jake Leaford grinned, a vengeful smile spreading across his face, “Michael Gallagher’s inheritance!”
The words “inheritance” struck everyone like a heavy hammer.
The atmosphere was dead silent.
Molly’s legs went limp, and she collapsed to the ground.
“Ivy…” Amanda Leaford supported her, her face full of concern.
Molly’s face was pale, she clenched her lower lip tightly, and her knuckles were already turning white from the pressure.
Soon after, a painful dull ache came from her chest, and her stomach churned. She heaved forcefully but could not vomit anything out.
Seeing her like this, a rare look of pleasure crossed Jake Leaford’s face.
“You say you’re so lucky, every time you’re fine, but he gets hurt for you over and over again, even lost his life!”
“Jake Leaford!” Joshua Thompson grabbed his collar and shoved him hard against the wall, “This isn’t the place for you to wreak havoc, get out!”
“Joshua!” Damian Thompson stopped him and then looked at Jake Leaford, speaking slowly, “Mr. Li, since you’ve said what you want to say, you can leave now. The dead have passed, and some people may be alive, but they are actually more miserable than if they were dead.”
He glanced at Molly softly, and his eyes reddened.
During these days in the hospital, Fourth Sister dared not look at her cell phone or see anyone. From taking the initiative to mention Michael Gallagher to now forbidding anyone from mentioning him, she actually understood.
She was only evading, using this clumsy method to protect her wounded heart.
Looking at Molly’s dazed appearance, Jake Leaford’s eyes grew increasingly red.
He knew the truth; how could he possibly not understand?
But the living were too painful.
Michael Gallagher was his best friend. Thinking of how his friend paid with his life for this woman, he could not suppress his anger and hatred.
He bit the tip of his tongue, forcing the tears back, and slowly squatted down in front of Molly.
He laid the document in his hand before her, his voice cold.
“Do you know why Michael was protecting Isabelle Richardson?”
Joshua Thompson rolled up his sleeves to intervene, but Molly raised her face, her tearful eyes looking at him. “Third brother, let him speak.”
Jake Leaford sneered, his eyes bloodshot.
“Noah Jenkins was burned alive trying to save Michael and, before dying, asked Michael to take good care of Isabelle Richardson.”
The entire room went silent, so quiet that a pin drop could be heard.
They knew Xavier Gallagher died in the fire, but they didn’t know it was to save Michael Gallagher…
Joshua Thompson frowned, wanting to stop him, but Damian Thompson shook his head at him.
Some truths, his sister should know.
“In Michael’s heart, Isabelle is Xavier Gallagher; this is his debt and his fate.”
Word by word, Jake said with certainty, the cold voice echoing in the room.
Molly Walker’s gaze was fixed, thinking about Michael Gallagher saying that Isabelle was his responsibility.
So it was true that Isabelle was his responsibility.
These were Xavier Gallagher’s last words, and Isabelle was destined to become Michael Gallagher’s responsibility and fate.
He was afraid of fire, never entered the kitchen, and even used e-cigarettes instead of regular ones, so this was the root cause.
Fire is a warm thing, but for Michael Gallagher, where there was fire, there was hell.
“Michael’s parents blamed him for everything, especially his father, who beat and scolded him every day, asking why he didn’t die instead of Xavier. After all, Xavier was the heir groomed by the Gallagher family since childhood, not a waste like him.”
Hearing these words, Molly’s heart felt like it was pierced by a cone, spurting blood.
He lost his brother and was blamed by his father; living with such guilt was more difficult than dying. As long as he lived one day, he would suffer for one day.
“On the anniversary of Xavier’s death, Michael’s father committed suicide, and Michael’s mother began to hate him, thinking he was a disaster…” At this point, Jake’s eyes were red, tears welling up, “From that day on, Michael lived like a walking corpse, and protecting Isabelle became the motivation for him to keep living, a motivation unrelated to feelings.”
Molly’s heart trembled violently, clutching the document in her hand and slowly curling up.
No wonder Isabelle said Michael was a man living in the abyss. How could a man burdened with two lives walk from darkness to brightness?
“What have you done? After marrying him, you ate his food, drank his water, stayed in his house, and even cuckolded him!” Thinking about the several men entangled with her, Jake’s blood-red eyes were full of anger, “The matter about your grandmother had nothing to do with him. He originally wanted to cure your grandmother, but it was Isabelle, this dead woman, who plotted everything, yet she didn’t give him a chance to explain. Now he’s dead. Are you satisfied?”
It wasn’t that she didn’t give him a chance to explain, it was that she dared not to.
She was afraid, afraid to forgive him, afraid to fall into his tenderness again.
She had asked the organization to investigate Michael’s past, but they found nothing. She never thought there would be so many hidden secrets behind it.
She covered her mouth, unable to hold back her whimpers.
How could she not be sad…
He was dead!
She would never worry about being forced to remarry or having her baby taken away from her. She would never be hurt by him again.
But her heart hurts so much…
It was like there was a hole in her heart, and even breathing hurt.
She looked up, the dazzling light stinging her eyes, and at that moment, it seemed like her tears had dried up.
She had thought about severing ties with him completely, but she never thought he would die, let alone die for her.
“Besides the shares of Gallagher Group, he left all his personal properties to you,” Jake said with a bitter smile, choking up. “I’ve advised him many times not to fall for a woman like you, but he wouldn’t listen.”
“Ivy Thompson, continue to live with guilt like this, live well on his behalf, and experience his suffering and pain…”
Jake’s words were like sharp needles, mercilessly piercing the deepest part of her heart.
“Ivy…” Amanda Leaford hugged her, her face covered in tears, “Babe, it’s not your fault…”
“How can it not be my fault…” Molly’s eyes were hollow, biting her lower lip, “It’s because I was unrestrained and flirted with other men that I ruined No. 6’s life, and it’s because I was too stubborn that everyone misunderstood.”
If she hadn’t involved No. 6, she wouldn’t have angered his fans, and no one would hate her and want to blow her up.
It should have been her who died.

She was a sinner. How could she have the right to live for others?
Seeing her in such pain, Amanda’s tears couldn’t stop falling either. Just a few days ago, she was grateful that Ivy was alive, only to find that sometimes, being alive was more painful than dying.
The other members of the Thompson family also remained silent. After hearing Jake’s words, they all felt a heavy boulder weighing on their hearts.
After all, Michael Gallagher had saved their loved ones. Even Joshua Thompson, who had always disliked Michael Gallagher, didn’t say anything.
Molly wiped her tears and murmured, “Where is Michael Gallagher buried? I want to see him.”
