Translator: 549690339

“Joshua’s car accident, was it you?

“l can’t believe the person we worked so hard to cultivate turned out to be so ungrateful and even hurt my child!”

“Did Joshua treat you badly? Why did you want to harm him?”

“No, I didn’t want to hurt him either!” Gillian Thompson exclaimed emotionally, “l didn’t want to either…”

Then came the sound of crying from the cell phone, “l just didn’t want him to acknowledge Ivy that’s all, I never thought of hurting him, I really didn’t want to hurt him…

“Gabriel, in the name of our mother and daughter relationship, I hope you’ll turn yourself in, Mom hopes you can repent and take responsibility for the wrong you’ve done…”

Then, with a “bang,” the sound of a shattering vase interrupted her words.

The recording on the cell phone stopped abruptly.

The atmosphere was dead silent, as if you could hear a pin drop.

“Who smashed it?” Daniel Thompson approached Gillian Thompson, furious,

“Was it you or Isabelle? Tell me!”

Gillian Thompson’s face was pale, her body trembling.

Daniel Thompson didn’t believe her anymore!

“It wasn’t me, Daddy…”

“Don’t call me Daddy!” Daniel Thompson’s face went cold, his usual indulgent look turning extremely cold.

Gillian Thompson hunched her body, burying her head very deep.

She knew no words would help at this point.

Daniel Thompson no longer believed her, and none of the Thompson family would believe her anymore!

Her nose soured, but she couldn’t cry. All her tears had dried up on this day.

Everything was gone – her hopes, her future…

All of it was gone…

“Why, Gabriel… Why did you harm Joshua?”

Nicholas Thompson took a long time to find his voice. He couldn’t believe that the person responsible for Joshua’s accident was Gillian Thompson.

Even if Joshua wanted to acknowledge Ivy, it was his freedom to do so. And even if Gillian wanted to stop him, killing was not the answer!

He could tolerate everything about her because she was his sister, but not condoning her for killing, nor condoning her for committing a crime.

He was a lawyer, acutely aware of the bottom line of the law. Human life was not to be trifled with, even more so the lives of his family!

“Before Ivy came back, we all treated you like a real sister. How could you… do such a thing?”

Nicholas Thompson murmured, like a man with shattered faith.

Thinking of what Gillian had done, and the recording he deleted, Nicholas Thompson’s eyes reddened.

With Ivy having the affection of their eldest and third brothers, he feared that Gillian would be lonely, so he resolutely stood by her side. But just who did he end up supporting?!

“You’ve disappointed me too much…”

Choking back his emotions, he shook his head and looked away, no longer looking at Gillian Thompson’s pleading face.

Gillian Thompson gritted her teeth and said to Joshua, “I’m sorry, Third Brother. I only intended to stop you from getting the identification results at first. But I didn’t expect that Isabelle’s way of stopping you would be to kill you.”

“By the time I found out, you were already in the hospital…and the incident where Mom was injured was also Isabelle’s doing. She was afraid that I would really turn myself in, so she smashed Mom with a vase and threatened me that if I told anyone, the next target would be me.”

“What I’m saying now is all true. If I’m lying, may I be struck by lightning…”

“Enough.” Joshua interrupted her coldly, “No one believes your oath.

According to you, all this was done by Isabelle, and you were just forced to be her accomplice?”

Gillian Thompson sobbed and nodded, “Yes, because of my selfishness and fear, I willingly became her accomplice.”

“Get Miss Richardson over here.” Daniel Thompson, suppressing his anger, spoke to the person on the phone, “l want to see whether what you’re saying is true or not!”

This matter was a blow not only to the Thompson family but even more so to him.

Without that recording, he would never have believed that Gillian Thompson would do such a thing.

“So, you’re so jealous of Ivy? In just a short month, I never thought you’d become so malicious.” Daniel Thompson now deeply regretted giving her the project. Gillian Thompson would bring them prosperity while Ivy Thompson would be their nemesis? To him, both daughters seemed to come to trouble him!

“It wasn’t a change in a month, it was always like this.” Damian Thompson looked at Gillian Thompson, “The fake Ivy was also your plan, right? From creating her background to making us believe she was Ivy, it was all your premeditated effort to stop the real Ivy from returning.”

Daniel Thompson immediately thought of the previous short-haired student, remembered his previous ecstasy, and now listening to Damian’s explanation, it felt like a slap in the face.

“Yes.” Gillian Thompson looked deadpan and no longer tried to excuse herself.

Since Damian Thompson had mentioned this, he must have found something.

She no longer wanted to struggle, she admitted what she had done, and it was time for another woman to be punished.

Would Isabelle faint with anger if she knew she had spilled the beans?

Thinking of this, Gillian Thompson inexplicably felt a sense of pleasure.

Gillian’s confession was like a bomb, exploding in Daniel Thompson’s heart.

At his age, he was played like a fool by his adopted daughter!

His chest tightened, his face turned pale, and he clutched at his heart.

“Daniel! Daniel, are you alright?” Amanda Leaford was the first to notice his abnormality and helped him.

Daniel Thompson shook his head, patted her hand, and opened his mouth to speak, but tears flowed out before he could say anything.

Humiliation!

This was the greatest humiliation in his glorious life.

Over the years, he had been able to control everything in the business world, but nothing could bring him down. He never thought that, in the end, he would be betrayed by his own family.

Seeing Daniel like this, Amanda Leaford also felt heartache.

She wiped the tears from the corner of her eyes and held his hand tightly.

“Daniel…

After leaving the Richardson family, Isabelle didn’t go far but kept close to the gate, waiting for Samuel Richardson to return.

She needed to have a good talk with Daddy, that Emma Smith definitely couldn’t stay in the Richardson family.

If it came to it, she was also willing to marry Jake Smith. Her father had raised her for so many years and couldn’t possibly give up on her like this.

When she saw the familiar luxury car coming in, Isabelle hurriedly rushed to stop it in front of the car.

The driver hit the brakes urgently, and Samuel Richardson’s body lunged forward, hitting his head on the back of the front seat.

“What’s going on!” After the meeting, having been ridiculed by the shareholders all afternoon, Samuel Richardson’s anger had reached its peak.

“If you can’t drive, don’t!”

The driver trembled and said, “Mr. Richardson, it’s Miss Richardson.’ Isabelle rushed over and tapped on the car window anxiously.

Samuel Richardson’s face darkened, and he said to the driver, “Drive.’

Isabelle watched the car drive away without even moving the window.

“Daddy! Wait for me!”

Isabelle gritted her teeth and chased after the car.

Shortly after, Samuel Richardson’s car reached the villa’s entrance. As soon as he got out, the security guard walked over, “Mr. Richardson, the Thompson family has sent someone, they’re at the gate.”

“The Thompson family?” Samuel Richardson thought about the delicate relationship between the Richardson family and the Thompson family at the moment, and the jeers and derisions of the old-fashioned people at the meeting echoed in his ears.

All because of Isabelle’s foolishness!

If it weren’t for her messing things up, the relationship between the Richardson family and the Thompson family would not have become so bad, and he wouldn’t have been scolded at every board meeting.

“What are the Thompson family people doing here?”

Seeing Isabelle catching up, the security guard breathed a sigh of relief and told Daniel Thompson, “Mr. Thompson has sent a car to pick up our Miss to have afternoon tea.’

Afternoon tea?

When did Isabelle’s relationship with the Thompson family become good enough to have afternoon tea together?

Samuel Richardson’s eyes were deep and full of scheming, “It just so happens that I’m free this afternoon too, I’ll go with Isabelle..”
