The Ex-husband Wants to Get Power Every Day After the Divorce Chapter 227 – Samuel Richardson’s Request

Chapter 227: Chapter 226 Samuel Richardson’s Request

Translator: 549690339

“No.” Emma Smith smiled slightly, revealing two adorable dimples at the corners of her mouth. “I’m just quite surprised by your attitude.”

The change was remarkable.

Samuel Richardson clenched his fist and coughed, sighing deeply. “My daughter’s vision is better than mine. Betting on Ivy Thompson this time was the right choice.”

“I shouldn’t have interfered in your social circle, but  did you know about her connection with that organization already?”

Otherwise, there wouldn’t be such a firm stand on Ivy’s side. Samuel didn’t believe that Emma knew nothing.

Emma’s lips pursed slightly.

She had guessed Ivy’s extraordinary identity back at the police station, but Samuel didn’t listen to her when she had told him during the Chamber of Commerce event, and now he blamed her for not saying it.

“I don’t mean to blame you,” Samuel paused, narrowing his eyes with a smile. “Are you on good terms with her?”

“Not really.”

She remembered Samuel had once kidnapped Ivy. With a father like him, even if she wanted to be friends with Ivy, she might not be willing to accept it.

Seeing Emma’s gloomy look, Samuel’s expression turned serious.

“You still helped her even though you’re not close? Moreover, she gave you a ticket to the Chamber of Commerce event  ”

“Since she has close ties with the ‘W’ organization, isn’t it easy for her to get a ticket?” Emma pursed her lips and said, “Dad, just tell me straight up, what’s going on?”

Putting so much effort into asking about her relationship with Ivy wasn’t just because he was genuinely concerned about her.

Samuel chuckled, “There’s nothing else. If you have time, you can invite her over for dinner at our house. I’ll send someone to pick up your mom tomorrow.”

“What if I can’t invite her over?”

“I believe you can.” Samuel patted her shoulder.

During the Chamber of Commerce event, Molly Walker had managed to get five tickets. She took one for herself, gave three to Emma’s brothers, and one to Emma.

He didn’t believe it when she said they weren’t close.

Hearing him using her mom as a bargaining chip, Emma frowned in silence.

Not to mention that Ivy was a person she respected and admired, even if she were an ordinary person, Emma wouldn’t use her as a bargaining chip.

Samuel had forgotten that she wasn’t Isabelle Richardson.

“I’m sorry, Dad, but I can’t do this. You kidnapped her once. Even if I invite her to my house, she would definitely not come because she’s cautious of you.”

Samuel’s face turned a bit pale, and he let out a bitter smile. “You’re right. But this time, I sincerely want to apologize to her. I now know she is not someone I can afford to offend.”

So, he told Emma everything about his past actions towards Molly Walker, even the part when he harbored intentions to kill her.

“She blocked Isabelle’s path, and after she married Michael Gallagher, I tried several times to send people to deal with her, but Michael always stopped them. I know he’s been unhappy with me, even though he doesn’t say it outright.”

“Michael stabilized Isabelle’s emotions, actually, he was stabilizing mine.”

Hearing this, Emma’s heart suddenly sank.

She never expected Samuel to have had such outrageous ideas!

No wonder Isabelle had become so vicious. With a father like that, it would be hard not to be influenced negatively.

If she hadn’t been living with her mother since she was a child, she would likely have been affected too.

“If Mr. Gallagher hadn’t stopped you, would you have ”

“Already succeeded.” Samuel’s eyes darkened. “That kid hid his depth well. It’s just a pity that he died so suddenly.”

Emma fell silent.

So-called deep love doesn’t last long. It was just like that.

“You want me to invite her over to apologize to her?”

Samuel nodded.

“It’s better to resolve grievances than to keep them. If I don’t resolve my issues with her, you can’t be friends with her either. Actually, I’ve already extended an olive branch.”

Letting go of Isabelle and not pulling her back was his gift to Molly Walker, a gesture for the sake of the Thompson family.

But he didn’t expect that in addition to being the Thompson family’s lost daughter, she was also connected to the “W” organization.

This organization, not to mention him, even the higher-ups in Orientopia wanted to please them.

Emma didn’t speak, but was indeed tempted.

If Samuel just wanted to apologize and admit his mistakes to Ivy, it would be a good thing indeed.

Just like Jake Smith, who redeemed himself after his crimes, Ivy didn’t hold him responsible either.

Ivy was a reasonable person.

“I’ll ask her, but I can’t guarantee she’ll come.” After all, Samuel Richardson’s previous “dirt” was enough to make her reluctant to even set foot in the Richardson family home.

Samuel Richardson nodded with satisfaction.

This daughter and Isabelle’s personalities are completely different; Isabelle is more like him, putting interests above everything, while Emma Smith is more like that woman, having her own ideas and complementing him perfectly.

A few days ago, he was still angry with Emma for her stubbornness, but now he felt relieved that she insisted on her own ideas. Otherwise, if she really offended Ivy Thompson, Ivy might be the next one to take action against him.

He fears Michael Gallagher, he fears the Thompson family, but for the “W” organization, it is not just fear, it is terror.

The organization is mysterious, and its intelligence network is like a spider’s web spread across the country. The scariest thing is the people inside it, lurking in all industries, from the bottom to the top, and it’s hard to guard against them.

At the Thompson family’s estate.

The servants are watering the plants and weeding the garden, which is why the grounds still maintain a colorful scene even in the winter.

Molly Walker leisurely strolls in the garden, soaking in the fresh air from Sunrise Mountain.

At the villa entrance, Gillian Thompson walks out of the house with guilt, carrying a big bag and a small package.

Being driven out of her home in front of so many servants is really awkward.

Yesterday, she voluntarily told Daniel Thompson that she would return to the old house. If she doesn’t leave today, she would be laughed at by Joshua Thompson.

Nicholas Thompson is at the door as they bump into each other.

“Second brother ” Gillian Thompson puts down the package in her hand, her face turning red as a freshly cooked shrimp.

“I’ve enrolled you in Capital City Psychological Institute, you had always wanted to go there for further studies, right? You can choose to go to school, or go back to the old house.”

Nicholas Thompson’s tone is very indifferent, as if he’s discussing with a stranger.

“Can I really go?” Gillian Thompson asks with her mouth wide open in surprise. The institute is famous, but it’s a closed environment during the study period, with only two days off per month. The tuition is expensive, and you have to study for two consecutive years. Because of these reasons, she hadn’t gone before, but now Nicholas Thompson has enrolled her.

“Yes, I signed you up half a month ago, and the spot just became available.”

Half a month ago was when the Thompson family had just decided to send her back to the old house.

She didn’t expect that her second brother had made plans for her even back then, and now he’s giving her another choice.

Compared to returning to the old house, going to further her studies is undoubtedly a better option. Going back to the old house means a retirement life, and she would never have any chance to partake in the family’s business. But if she goes to study, she will have the opportunity to return after two years.

“Thank you, Second Brother!” Gillian Thompson is overjoyed, believing that there’s hope for everyone.

Nicholas Thompson frowns, wanting to remind her of something. However, his gaze shifts, and his expression becomes slightly startled.

Molly Walker walks past them with both hands in her pockets.

She sees them but pretends not to notice.

Nicholas Thompson’s expression tightens, and he says to Gillian Thompson: “You pack up your things and go to Capital City as soon as possible. Don’t contact the family unless it’s necessary.”

After that, he turns to Molly Walker.

“Fourth sister  ”

Nicholas Thompson catches up to her and says awkwardly, “Gabriel realizes her mistake.”

“It doesn’t concern me.” Molly Walker responds indifferently, “She’s your sister, not mine.”

Nicholas Thompson’s heart sinks slightly, and he hesitates, “You all may think I favor her, but she has been contributing to the family for so many years, and there’s no merit without hard work ”

There it was again.

“Like I said, it’s not my problem.” Molly Walker interrupts him, scoffing, “You are her second brother, not mine.”

From the beginning to the end, he has always favored Gillian Thompson and never changed.

If Gillian Thompson had received some punishment for what she had done, perhaps she would have reflected on her actions, but every time she made a mistake, someone was always there to cover for her.

“Do you think she will change after being rewarded with a chance to study in such a good school despite her wrongdoings?”

Nicholas Thompson is shocked, his face turning pale.

Not far away, Gillian Thompson also notices Molly Walker, standing there awkwardly and glancing over from time to time.

Seeing that Nicholas Thompson still doesn’t understand, Molly Walker tilts her head and wonders, “If Gillian Thompson’s parents were still here, would you send her back to them?”

Nicholas Thompson nods repeatedly: “Of course, if her parents still existed and were willing to take her back, my father and I would both encourage her to return home.”

But finding her parents isn’t that easy.

“When Gillian’s parents abandoned her in the orphanage, they never showed up again for so many years. Those two people have long given up on her.” Nicholas Thompson’s eyes gradually darken, and this is also the reason why he feels pity for Gillian Thompson.

At the beginning, when Ivy was lost, he entrusted his sisterly affection to Gillian Thompson. Over time, these feelings have grown deep-rooted.

“What if her parents still existed and have been in contact with her?”

Molly Walker laughs softly, breaking Nicholas Thompson’s illusions word by word.

These words are like thunder that hits Nicholas Thompson, making him tremble all over. “What did you say?”
