Chapter 234 - 233: All the Sharp Knives
Molly Walker looked coldly at the person in front of her, who seemed immune to persuasion.
The housekeeping manager glanced at Gillian Thompson and was slightly captivated.
She recognized the woman as Gillian Thompson, Daniel Thompson’s daughter. Today, she had received a notification from the manager that some VIPs would be coming, and these VIPs were most likely the people in this private room.
She made a quick decision and gestured to the security guard, “Take this person to the Public Security Bureau.”
One could not afford to offend the Thompson family.
The security guard understood and grabbed Molly’s arm.
Molly’s eyes darkened, and she was considering whether to fight back when a deep voice rang out, “Let her go.”
Everyone turned to look at the source of the voice. The housekeeping manager recognized him first and stuttered, “Manager, you’re here?”
Usually, the manager would not come unless it was necessary. She then saw a man wearing a black mask and sunglasses standing next to the manager, his hair slightly curly and light brown, his tall figure obscured.
Seeing Molly exposed, the manager’s heart sank, “Miss Walker is my friend, not a bad person.”
“But ” the housekeeping manager hesitated, “She just tried to enter someone else’s private room with a room card. Is that behavior something you condone, manager?”
Hearing this, the manager cursed inwardly.
This woman couldn’t get promoted and was always trying to find fault with him.
In front of everyone, he couldn’t reveal that it was the young boss’s idea, as it would affect their restaurant’s reputation.
Molly also realized that the housekeeping manager was intentionally opposing the manager.
Since she was already exposed, she couldn’t barge in directly, at least not for now.
Suddenly, she felt a sharp gaze on her, and she raised her fine eyebrows, looking back at the person.
It was a man wearing a mask and sunglasses.
After the incident with Xavier Gallagher, she became cautious of men wearing masks and subconsciously associated this man with someone else
But the person in front of her had different hairstyles, clothing, and even height from that man.
She lowered her head and let her eyes fall.
“Mr. Jackson, please invite Miss Thompson for tea to calm her nerves. Mr. Jenkins is our VIP today, and I’ll show him to the private room.” The manager looked serious.
Mr. Jenkins?
A man with the surname Jenkins
The housekeeping manager immediately thought of the Jenkins family in Capital City, and she noticed the anger in the manager’s face, her heart trembled slightly.
The manager was warning her.
She took a deep breath and said to Gillian Thompson, “Miss Thompson, let’s go have some tea. I have some questions I’d like to ask you.”
Gillian Thompson’s mouth hung open, and her eyebrows were tightly furrowed.
If she left now, what would happen if Ivy Thompson opened the door again?
At that moment, the masked man walked up to Molly and took the card from her hand.
As Molly was startled, he quickly walked to the private room door.
He casually swiped the card, and the door opened instantly.
No one expected that Mr. Jenkins would actually open the door.
Inside the room, Daniel Thompson and Phoebe Belmont were sitting side by side. Phoebe was serving food to Daniel and froze with her hand in midair when she saw the door suddenly open.
Gillian Thompson’s face changed dramatically, and she shouted, “What are you doing?”
She then scolded the manager, “Aren’t you the restaurant that prides itself on protecting clients’ privacy? Is this your way of protecting it by giving the room card to someone else?”
Daniel Thompson inside the room stood up with a dark face. When he saw Molly, dressed in a sailor outfit, his face turned from blue to white.
Phoebe Belmont next to him took off her coat, revealing a sexy and ambiguous strap dress.
At this point, everyone could see that something fishy was going on.
“Ivy ” Daniel Thompson hurried over, “Don’t tell your ”
“Don’t tell Mom or my brothers?” Molly interrupted him with a smile, then turned to look at Gillian Thompson’s embarrassed face, “I’m sorry to disturb your family dinner.”
Gillian Thompson’s face flushed pale and white, stammering: “Sister, what are you talking about? Dad and Phoebe are discussing work here, they have a long-standing working relationship, how can you insult them arbitrarily.”
Gillian Thompson’s words reminded everyone in the room. Daniel Thompson coughed and said calmly: “That’s right, Ivy, we are talking about work, don’t make baseless accusations.”
Baseless accusations?
Molly Walker smiled without speaking.
She didn’t come today solely to catch cheating, but rather to confirm her suspicions and warn Daniel Thompson.
Some problems are for him and Mom to solve. As for some people
She calmly walked to Phoebe Belmont, smiled at her and said, “I believe Mr. Belmont is just discussing work with my father. Someone as outstanding as Mr. Belmont would never stoop to being No. 3, right?”
The words “No. 3” deeply hurt Phoebe Belmont’s ears.
She did like Daniel Thompson, but she didn’t want to be a No. 3.
With her thoughts exposed, Phoebe Belmont’s face turned scarlet.
Molly Walker stared at Daniel Thompson and smiled, “By the way, Mom and I are flying out tonight. All the dishes at home were made just for you. Mom even made your favorite braised pork. But it seems you are too busy to enjoy it.”
Molly Walker’s casual words caused Daniel Thompson’s body to tremble violently, his teeth bit into his lower lip, unable to control his rapid breathing.
Were the children waiting for him to eat their last meal together?
Did Amanda make his favorite braised pork?
And he had completely forgotten about it.
“Why didn’t anyone notify me ?”
“The housekeeper said your phone is unreachable.” Molly Walker glanced at his cell phone casually.
Daniel Thompson quickly picked up his cell phone and found it had been turned off at some point.
Daniel Thompson’s eyes turned cold, and he looked coldly at Phoebe.
Phoebe Belmont’s face turned pale with anxiety.
“Sister, how did you know Dad was here? Did you send someone to track us?”
Gillian Thompson’s words diverted everyone’s attention.
Molly Walker shrugged: “You overestimate me. I don’t have that ability.”
“How come you don’t have that ability? You had the ‘W’ organization outright fire Violet. I think your abilities are quite impressive.” Gillian Thompson sneered, then turned to Daniel Thompson and said, “Dad, Violet was fired by her, and now she sends people to track us, sneaking into this restaurant as a waitress, and even picked the lock on your door. I’m scared looking at someone like her. Is she really your biological daughter?”
Daniel Thompson’s face darkened further. When she had burst in earlier, he had been startled.
He had been coming to this restaurant for a while, and the security and confidentiality measures had always been good, but his daughter had just stormed in without any difficulty.
Such a great ability made him think of the “W” organization.
Could it be that this daughter was indeed a member of that organization?
Once someone has a weakness, they begin to dread and suspect.
Daniel Thompson’s eyes were so dark they were frightening.
Molly Walker remained indifferent, smiling calmly and tenderly at Daniel Thompson: “I have no special skills, but if it’s for my family, I can raise all the sharp knives on my body.”
Daniel Thompson shuddered and finally bowed his head slowly.
Outside the door, everyone had left, leaving only the masked man leaning against the door, the keys dancing on his fingertips.
As Molly Walker came out and passed by him, she whispered a “Thank you.”
Either way, this person had just helped her.
As the man heard her voice, his chin lifted slightly: “Miss Thompson, you have admirable courage.”
Only she would have the guts to catch her father cheating.
Hearing this faint mocking tone, Molly Walker just smiled and didn’t say anything. After walking a few steps, however, she noticed that the man was still unhurriedly following her.
“Miss Thompson, may I ask you about something?”
Molly Walker stopped, and the man continued, “With your ex-husband not even cold in the grave, how were you able to let go of everything and remarry?”
