She only wanted to slowly make Molly lose control, but didnât expect Molly to give up directly.
How could she just give up? Someone has to be responsible for certain things.
After figuring out the stakes, a smile immediately appeared on Phoebe Belmontâs face, âThis project canât be without you. Donât say such things. For all our projects, we need you to decide and sign!â
After saying that, she pushed the document forward.
Mollyâs lips curled up slightly, taking the document and flipping through it without paying much attention.
Phoebeâs eyebrows twitched. n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Closing the contract, Molly spoke in a cold voice, âAfter I sign this document, anything that goes wrong in the future will be my responsibility, right?â
Unexpectedly, she was so straightforward. Phoebeâs smile became awkward, and she hurriedly explained, âHow could you think that? Besides, weâre watching too. How could anything go wrong? Our companyâs projects have never had any problems.â
With a cold smile on her lips, Mollys eyes were like autumn water, carrying a charming allure.
Phoebeâs smile remained unchanged on her face, but she cursed her thoroughly in her heart.
She thought that a student like Molly, who had graduated not long ago, wouldnât understand the stakes in the contract. She didnât expect Molly to find the flaw with a casual flip.
With a light smile, Molly spoke softly, her words tinged with a hint of chill, âMiss Phoebe, I donât understand some clauses in this contract. 1 want my brothers to take a look at it too. If they also think there is no problem with the contract, I have no objectionâ¦â
Hearing that she was going to show it to her brothers, Phoebe hurriedly snatched the contract back and anxiously explained, âActually, I donât know how to read contracts either. I directly brought whatever the Legal Department gave me. Since you think there is a problem with the contract, I will ask the Legal Department to check it again.â
âNo need.â Mollyâs tone was very light; her lips rippled with a gorgeous mocking smile, â1 1 said it before; Iâm not participating in this project. Iâll be joining a competition soon and wonât have time to manage this.â
Hearing her continued insistence to give up management, Phoebe began to worry.
If Molly stopped completely, Daniel Thompson would think she was inefficient. When others heard about it, they would think she was intentionally ostracizing Ivy Thompson, especially with the Thompson brothers supporting her.
She didnât achieve her current position at such a young age to offend Damian Thompson and the others.
âMiss Thompson, you think thereâs a problem with the contract, and I said 1 would ask the Legal Department to revise it. But for you to just give up, isnât that a bit childish?â
âChildish?â Molly raised her eyebrows in response, âYouâve already settled on the demolition site before coming to me to sign. Am I not just a tool?â Moreover, a tool that might be sacrificed as a scapegoat.
Phoebe remained silent for a while before finally speaking, âTruth be told, Miss Thompson, Mr. Thompson has already decided to hand the project over to Gillian Thompson, mainly because your reputation is really bad. Everyone knows this, and itâs for your own good and the Thompson family.â
For her own good?
Molly laughed.
What reputation, what Thompson family, those were just excuses and pretenses.
Even though she hadnât hoped for this family to bring her anything, she wasnât just a tool to be called and dismissed at will.
When the project was initially given to her, she didnât want to accept. Later, she did accept it, but then these people didnât want her to do it anymore.
The southern side of the demolition site was obviously better than the east side. She had even consulted professionals who unanimously advised her to choose the southern side. But in the end, they still insisted on going with the east side. This was on purpose to go against her.
âIf itâs really for my good and for the Thompson familyâs good, then I shouldnât be involved in this project.â Molly slightly pursed her lips and scoffed coldly, âAnyway, I have no interest in this project or the so-called shares of the Thompson family.â
âWell said! No interest at all!â Daniel Thompson strode over, hearing the conversation clearly, âl know youâre unhappy with this arrangement, but itâs also the collective decision of the companys shareholders. I didnât expect you to be so willful. If you really donât want to participate, fineâ¦â
Having said that, he turned to Phoebe and said, âSince sheâs not interested, donât make it difficult for her. You and Gabriel can take care of this.â
Phoebe was delighted in her heart but showed some reluctance on her face,
âIvy is being impulsive. I think itâs better to wait until she calms downâ¦â
âThereâs no need to wait.â Molly pulled out the contract and pen from her hand, handing them to Phoebe, âThe contract you asked me to sign just now, now itâs your turn to sign.â
Seeing the contract handed to her, Phoebeâs heart jumped violently, and her face turned pale.
âThis⦠this contractâ¦
âWhatâs wrong? Is there a problem with the contract?â Molly raised her eyebrows.
Upon hearing her words, Daniel Thompson looked suspiciously at her. Phoebe immediately took the contract and said, âHow could there be a problem? The Legal Department has already checked it.â
If she told Daniel Thompson that there was a problem with the contract now, it would be like shooting herself in the foot.
In the end, she gritted her teeth and signed the document as the person in charge, making a mental decision to have the Legal Department draft a new one later.
Before she could finalize her plan, Molly said, âMr. Thompson, you should sign it as well.â
Upon hearing these words, Phoebeâs body trembled.
If only she signed, she could still revise the contract. However, if Daniel
Thompson signed as well, it would be inappropriate for her to change the contract afterward and ask him to sign again, right? How would she explain it when he questioned her?
Claiming that she didnât understand the contract? In that case, Daniel Thompson would just tell her to roll out.
Phoebe anxiously watched Daniel Thompson.
Danielâs face turned as black as charcoal.
In fact, he had said it in anger just now and didnât expect Molly not to care, but to urge him to settle the matter quickly.
Especially her way of addressing him. Could it be Mr. Thompson? Was she mocking him?
Danielâs eyes darkened, and his voice was full of reproach, âIvy, I am your fatherâ¦
âCall me Molly.â Molly interrupted Daniel Thompson without hesitation, her cold words devoid of any emotion, âFrom beginning to end, I never acknowledged myself as Ivy Thompson.â
Hearing this, Danielâs face went completely dark, âAre you blaming me?â
âThereâs nothing to blame.â Molly laughed lightly, âl donât care at all.â
She was numb after the things Daniel and Nicholas Thompson had done.
When peopleâs hearts are made of flesh, too much disappointment leaves no room for expectations.
The reason she hadnât broken away from the Thompson family yet was because of her mother, as well as her eldest and second brothers.
Upon hearing her words, Danielâs pupils trembled.
He never imagined that someone would ignore the wealth and status of the Thompson family.
âDo you know what youâre saying?â Danielâs face was full of anger, and his eyes seemed to spit fire, âOnly after you change your surname can you have the right to have shares.â
âl am not interested in shares.â Mollyâs red lips lifted slightly, calmly saying, âGrandmother raised me all these years, and Iâm the only descendant. Iâm not planning to change my surname.â
Hearing her words, Danielâs anger surged within his heart, âVery well! Well done, Molly! Not planning to change your surname!â
