Redemption
Molly’s eyes were burning.
These words seed to break through a hard barrier in her heart, and a warm current gradually wrapped around her softness.
Thinking about how determined Michael had been to save her uncle, even with the expectation of death, her heart trembled involuntarily.
She had always thought Michael was cold-hearted, but apparently, he was more so towards himself.
No wonder he had been at the hospital those days.
“Uncle has been looking everywhere for you.” Molly’s eyes reddened slightly. “Why didn’t you tell it was you who saved him?”
“It’s not a big deal.” Michael’s gaze at her was a bit scorching, as clear as a mountain stream.
In fact, another reason he didn’t want to say was that he didn’t want her to agree to be with him out of gratitude in the end.
Ignoring his deep gaze, Molly hurriedly lowered her eyes, her eyelashes trembling, her heart pounding heavily.
How could she not be touched – he had saved her family.
He said he was redeeming himself, so he had always understood what was important to her.
Although grandmother’s death was due to Isabelle Richardson, Michael also had so responsibility. But upon reflection, his intentions were good, and no one had expected Isabelle to act so harshly.
When he said he was redeeming himself, he was actually redeeming himself for grandmother’s death. Grandmother’s death had always been a knot between them. He saved her life, and her uncle’s as well, and no matter how tough her heart was before, the sharp edges had been worn away at this point.
“So it was you who saved .” Jas Leaford sighed, patting his shoulder.
Unlike others’ perceptions, he had always thought Michael Gallagher was an outstanding young man with great potential. Not only did he think so, but many company managers likely held a good impression of him.
Jas could still recall howwhen Noah Jenkins and his father died in quick succession, Gallagher Group nearly fell apart. At the ti, everyone underestimated him when he took over the company, but he managed to carve out such a large territory for the company on his own.
Later, when he found out that Michael had saved Ivy Thompson at the cost of his own life, Jas couldn’t help but feel admiration and regret. Surprisingly, the young man didn’t die; not only had he saved Ivy, he saved Jas himself.
The child in Ivy’s womb was Michael’s, so it was only natural for her to prefer her original partner for the sake of the baby.
Seeing his niece’s emotional reaction, Jas realized the answer, no wonder she couldn’t accept other n – she had been waiting for Michael all along.
“I never thought Cousin’s husband would be the one to save my dad.” Natalie Lambert broke the silence with a giggle. She then looked over at Jeremy Norman’s mother, “If it wasn’t your son who saved my dad, then you really have no sha letting my cousin marry your son in return? If this gets out, it’ll be so embarrassing – for you.”
“Ling Ling!” Jas Leaford coughed lightly, while Natalie shrugged, rolling her eyes nonchalantly.
Jeremy’s mother’s face turned from blue to white, as she never expected such a mix-up.
What she had heard back then had been only half the story; the butler had just stamred when trying to clarify the truth. She had made a conclusion of her own, but now she had lost face completely.
Sebastian Norman, Jeremy’s father, glanced coldly at his wife. His son was brilliant, but now Jeremy was practically unwanted, thanks to the ss his wife had made of things.
Finding out the truth, Jeremy felt as if a heavy burden had been lifted. But, he had not expected that the owner of the car had actually been Michael Gallagher.
His palms felt as if they were being torn apart by insects. He clenched his fists tightly until the pain reached his heart.
“Jeremy Norman, thank you for telling the truth.”
Molly walked up to him and handed him the item she had been holding, “This is your birthday gift.”
Jeremy took the gift, and a warm feeling grew in his heart.
Fortunately, he had not continued the lie. If he had claid in front of everyone that he had saved Jas Leaford, he would never have been able to face Ivy again.
He glanced at Michael Gallagher, feeling a bitter smile in his heart. Using his own car to save Jas Leaford, even if he was willing to save him, he may not have had such an opportunity.
Watching the tacit understanding between Michael and Molly, Jeremy’s heart tightened.
“Now that the misunderstanding has been cleared up, and everyone is happy, today is my son’s birthday. Let’s put aside any unpleasant feelings and enjoy the banquet.” Sebastian Norman looked deeply at the Leaford family, knowing the recent events had caused strife between the two families. He had suffered greatly from the Leaford Group’s turn of fortune, and he wanted to reconcile for the sake of the future.
He didn’t dream that the “W” organization could help him, but at least he wanted the Norman and Leaford families not to be enemies.
Seeing Ivy’s attitude towards his son, it seed that she didn’t hold a grudge against them.
Sebastian Norman’s words suddenly reminded Jeremy’s mother, who suddenly thought that without the debt of gratitude, the Leaford family might hate them to the bone. In that case, if they joined forces with the “W” organization to cause trouble, her own child could be hurt.
Realizing the loss of face, lest their family suffer further, Jeremy’s mother hurriedly put on a smile, and said kindly to them, “Although our Jeremy can’t be your benefactors, you are still his friends. Today is Jeremy’s birthday, such a festive day. Let’s put everything aside and let bygones be bygones ”
“I’m sorry, I have to get back to the company. I won’t be staying for dinner.” Jas Leaford refused her invitation without giving any face.
Jas still couldn’t forget how they had threatened Ivy to marry their son, not to ntion his dissatisfaction with Sebastian Norman, so he demanded to leave.
“Jas Leaford, will eating a al with us kill you?” Sebastian Norman was instantly enraged. “I admit, I was petty before, but the situation has changed. Do you want end this once and for all?”
At this point, Jeremy’s father glanced at Molly and lowered his voice, “There are so many people here, just give so face ”
Jas didn’t change his expression, “Face? So Mr. Norman still wants face. I’m sorry, but you don’t get any face from .”
Sebastian Norman’s face instantly darkened.
Telling him off like this, in front of everyone, was nothing short of ripping off their masks.
“Sebastian Norman, you can’t possibly think we can go back to being how we were before, pretending none of this happened?” Jas Leaford crossed his arms and sneered coldly. “My attendance today was completely out of respect for little Jeremy. As for you, to , you’re just a piece of shit.”
