Chapter 388: Chapter 387: Never Letting Go Again
If Ivy Thompson’s life was this good, she would think she was seeing a ghost.
Upon hearing that the baby was stimulated, Amanda Leaford’s face turned pale instantly.
“How is Ivy doing? Her pregnancy was unstable from the start, and I’m really afraid it will harm her…”
Amanda Leaford covered her face, tears welling up in her eyes.
What hurts the daughter, pains the mother.
After all this hardship, she finally found her daughter, only to experience these constant accidents.
She asked for nothing else, just hoping her children were healthy.
Amanda Leaford was both anxious and scared. Zoey Lambert hugged her shoulders, comforting her softly: “Auntie, cousin Ivy is blessed and will be fine.”
Amanda Leaford shook her head, and tears streamed down her cheeks.
Seeing the few strands of white hair at her temple, Zoey Lambert felt a pang of sadness in her heart.
This auntie of hers also had a hard life. She had been mentally ill for most of her life, and finally recuperated and reunited with her child. But now this happened to her uncle.
The baby survived an explosion; she hoped this time too, cousin Ivy can turn danger into safety.
“Arguing with Michael Gallagher? You mean, my sister was so angered by Gallagher that she was pushed to this state?” Joshua Thompson was boiling with rage.
From the moment Michael Gallagher left without saying goodbye to the present moment of sending his sister to the hospital, everything was related to this man.
He didn’t care what the problem was between the two, but if anything happened to Ivy, he would never spare Michael Gallagher.
Fearing the situation wouldn’t be big enough, Scarlett Jackson nodded her head and explained, “Ivy Thompson and Mr. Jenkins had an argument, and he got angry and got into the car. Ivy chased after him and when she couldn’t catch up, she fainted.”
Eager to clear herself, she was quick to pass the blame to others.
The worse the relationship between Mr. Jenkins and the Thompson family was, the better. Only then would she have the opportunity to step up.
Perhaps her expression gave her away, Jeremy Norman sternly interrupted her, “I clearly saw you arguing with Molly Walker and you made her angry and faint. Scarlett Jackson, you’ve cleared yourself so easily from the pot.”
The atmosphere dropped sharply, and Scarlett Jackson was stunned.
She couldn’t figure out why Jeremy Norman always had to include her.
She didn’t even provoke Ivy Thompson at all!
As soon as Jeremy Norman finished speaking, the people of the Thompson and Leaford families all looked at her.
“Scarlett Jackson, I seem to have heard this name somewhere…” Zoey Lambert closed her eyes and thought carefully, and Mentor’s words suddenly came to her mind.
This Scarlett Jackson seemed to be the intermediary who helped her and Jerry Jenkins get together.
Her gentle gaze suddenly sharpened.
Joshua Thompson looked non-chalantly at Scarlett Jackson, his expression both frivolous and fierce.
He walked up to Scarlett Jackson and looked at her coldly, “So you’re Scarlett Jackson.”
He reached out his hand and grabbed her arm, “Come with me to the police station.”
“Police station?” Scarlett Jackson exclaimed, “What are we doing there? I didn’t do anything, and Ivy Thompson’s fainting has nothing to do with me!”
“Whether it matters or not, we’ll first take you to the station.” Joshua Thompson gnashed his teeth.
This woman obviously had some ambiguous relationship with Michael Gallagher.
Ever since the incident with Isabelle Richardson, he didn’t like these pretentious girls at all; he could see through their schemes at a glance.
Women were as unfathomable as the sea, but he was not unfamiliar with this kind of scheme, having seen too many of them.
Unable to break free, Scarlett Jackson was virtually dragged by Joshua Thompson downstairs.
Scarlett Jackson began to panic and her arm was firmly gripped by Joshua Thompson, making her unable to move. She was very scared.
With Joshua Thompson’s irresponsible and flirtatious past, she wouldn’t put it past him to not only beat a woman, but even kill one.
Seeing Joshua Thompson taking her away, Jeremy Norman gave her a deep look.
The main reason Molly Walker fainted wasn’t because of Scarlett Jackson, but she certainly did fan the flames.
He certainly wouldn’t go easy on this kind of woman.
Thinking about Molly, who had just been rushed into the emergency room with her eyes closed, his heart was pounding rapidly.
He suddenly felt a chill of fear. If anything happened to Molly, he would never forgive himself.
Olivia Sawyer said that letting go was a form of happiness, but now it seemed impossible to let go.
Rather than being tormented by thoughts of her, he would rather stay by Molly’s side and prevent Michael Gallagher from hurting her again.
Even though he didn’t know what had transpired between the two of them, he was determined from today onwards not to let go.
He would stay by Molly’s side and would not allow anyone to harm her.
After what felt like forever, the doors to the emergency room finally opened.
Jeremy Norman rushed over first.
Amanda Leaford’s legs gave out, she dared not step forward nor look, but her ears had become overly sensitive.
She heard the doctor say:
“Where is the family? Where is the father of the child?”
“Doctor, we are all her family, how is she?” Damian Thompson tried to stay calm, but his voice still betrayed a trembling undertone.
The doctor was expressionless, “She’s not in a life-threatening condition right now.”
The tense atmosphere in the room eased a bit, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
“But the baby can’t be saved, we need to operate on her now. We need the family and the child’s father to sign here.”
The doctor’s next sentence hit everyone like a ton of bricks, causing everyone to cease breathing.
Amanda Leaford’s face changed, but she quickly regained her calm, “Doctor, will this incident affect her ability to have children in the future?”
“The baby was neither too big nor too small, there will be some damage, but as long as she takes good care of herself, it won’t affect fertility.” The doctor seemed to have seen a lot of this and handed them the contract, “Please sign quickly, so we can proceed with the surgery.”
Damian Thompson accepted the contract and signed quickly.
“Thank you, doctor.”
The doctor glanced at the contract and raised an eyebrow, “Who is the father of the child? We need him to sign as well.”
“Can’t the family member’s signature suffice?” Jeremy Norman frowned.
“I’m sorry, we just had a case where the father did not sign the consent to save the mother over the child, that led to a lot of issues. The hospital now has a policy that the father has to sign as well. Didn’t you say the child’s father was here? We feel it’s best if the child’s father signs so we can proceed with the operation with peace of mind.”
Jeremy Norman was about to explain when a hand suddenly patted his shoulder.
“He’s the father of the child.” Damian Thompson’s eyes were icy cold, there was an undercurrent of frosty menace in them.
Jeremy Norman immediately understood, and without much hesitation, took the contract and signed it.
In terms of deciding between saving the mother or child, everyone there had the same goal in mind.
As for whether or not Michael Gallagher would make a fuss later, the Thompson family would not allow him to.
Perhaps Michael Gallagher was not even aware that his child was suddenly gone.
Thinking about what Michael Gallagher had done, Jeremy Norman felt both hatred and disgust.
If Michael Gallagher knew that his child was gone because of his actions, he would likely regret it for the rest of his life.
But his regret would be pointless.
He was determined not to let Molly land in his hands again.
At the Jenkins family’s estate, Mr. Jenkins lost his appetite after hearing that Jerry Jenkins had been thrown in jail.
“Mr. Jenkins, young master Michael is back!”
The Jenkins family’s butler rushed to knock on the door.
Mr. Jenkins hurriedly got up from his chair.
“Where is he?” Thinking about his eldest grandson in prison, Mr. Jenkins put down his worries, “That brat, he’s finally back.”
As long as Michael was back, he would not worry about his eldest grandson being in prison.
He remembered that Michael had a good relationship with the police station in the Capital City, getting Jerry out on bail should not be difficult.
