The Ex-husband Wants to Get Power Every Day After the Divorce

For now, Scarlett was helpless. After all, nobody had asked her to employ hackers to infiltrate Ivy’s computer. This sort of behavior was covert; she could only admit her misfortune.

“This Ivy Thompson, she’s quite capable.” Mr. Jenkins narrowed his eyes, his tone was murmuring, somewhat cryptic.

Although this competition was not national-level, it was still a civilian competition with an element of competitive spirit between different countries.

This time, Ivy had truly dazzled.

Moreover, considering her current identity, her contribution to the progress of both the Thompson family and the Leaford family was evident.

“The stocks of both the Thompson Group and Leaford Group have risen.”

Mr. Jenkins unlocked his cell phone, and at a glance, he noticed that the stocks of these two companies were soaring continuously.

The competition was broadcasted live. The news had spread and people outside were following accordingly.

Scarlett Jackson’s face turned pale; she was seething.

Molly Walker had single-handedly boosted the stocks of two huge companies. Furthermore, once word got out, it would undoubtedly elevate the status of both the Thompson and Leaford family even more.

Previously, they all thought Molly had simply been lucky.

Molly was somehow a part of the “W” organization, people were guessing that this was all Michael Gallagher’s doing, promoting his delicate little wife.

Others were speculating that this was all a part of the Thompson family’s efforts to boost the reputation of their fourth young lady, thereby enhancing their family’s honor and prestige.

No matter the speculation, everyone was skeptical about Molly’s abilities.

But after today, Molly’s “abilities” would surely be acknowledged.

In the future, no one would call her an attractive yet empty vase.

With these thoughts in mind, Scarlett’s heart felt extremely oppressive.

She had previously perceived Molly to be nothing more than a vase with a bit more money and looks than her.

Apart from this, there was nothing in which Molly surpassed her.

But today’s competition had sobered her up completely.

Molly was not an empty vase, and certainly not someone she could compare to.

If you really think about it, how could Zachary Jenkins ever fancied an empty vase?

Scarlett bit her lip tightly and glanced somewhat vacantly at Mr. Jenkins. An intense sense of crisis started rising she felt in her heart.

Mr. Jenkins wouldn’t approve of Molly so easily, would he?

“Mr. Jenkins, she has been meticulously aiming to slap our face,” Scarlett’s voice was soft but with a razor-sharp edge.

Mr. Jenkins slightly lifted his eyebrows.

Scarlett continued, “When you disagreed with Zachary being with her, she simply kidnapped Zachary. Only we knew about your disagreement with Zachary. On the other hand, others may assume Zachary was marrying into her family.”

Marrying into a family…

Mr. Jenkins’s face suddenly turned ugly.

What kind of family was the Jenkins family? How could the descendants of Jenkins’s family marry into other families?

Thinking of his love-struck grandson, Mr. Jenkins felt his eyelids twitch uncontrollably.

If Molly agreed to remarry, then Zachary might just agree to the idea of marrying into her family.

He felt a lump in his throat.

Mr. Jenkins’s recent admiration of Molly had suddenly vanished.

Molly would never agree to marry into the Jenkins family, but Zachary could possibly marry into the Thompson family.

With the strength of the Thompson Group, it would not be difficult to have a man marry into their family, but it could never be someone from the Jenkins family. Otherwise, he would be laughed at for a lifetime.

“There’s nothing bad about marrying into a family,” Jerry Jenkins suddenly spoke. His eyes crinking up, he revealed a significant smirk, “It’s trendy to have a man marry into his wife’s family, Zachary would be just keeping up with the trend if he did.”

“Shut up!” Mr. Jenkins interrupted him, glaring fiercely.

Thinking of the prospect of Zachary marrying into the Thompson family, Mr. Jenkins was outraged.

What nonsense about the trend of men marrying into their wives’ families.

If a man from his family married his way into another, he would never rest in peace.

“She must not win a spot.” Thinking of something, Mr. Jenkins took a deep breath, with a trace of relentlessness on his face.

Molly’s abilities were useless here; he could only feel sorry for her.

Zachary this grandson was probably a waste, but fortunately, Jerry was here. The Jenkins family was not without successors.

At this thought, Mr. Jenkins’ hopeful eyes fell on Jerry.

Jerry waved his hand in amusement: “Don’t worry, grandfather, I won’t agree to marry into a family. If I fancy someone, I’ll be sure to make her my wife and take care of her. As long as she obeys, she will lead a good life. If she is disobedient…I have plenty of ways to make her obey.”

While saying this, his eyes casually lingered on Natalie Lambert in the front row.

His voice was not loud but those around could hear it clearly.

Upon hearing this, Zoey Lambert’s face turned pale instantly.

Natalie Lambert had also heard his words. The mockery she couldn’t hold back was visible on her face. She lazily glanced at Jerry, then laughed scornfully, obviously showing her contempt.

Words can be unintentionally hurtful to the listener.

Zoey Lambert could feel her heart racing, but when she thought about her most respected mentor planning to introduce her to a high-quality man tomorrow, her heart settled down again.

She used to resist blind dates, but for some reason, Jerry Jenkins inexplicably gave her a sense of crisis.

The mentor was her doctoral advisor. He was very kind to her, so the man he was introducing should not be bad.

As long as it wasn’t Jerry Jenkins, she could try meeting other men.

Ever since Molly Walker’s work appeared, the subsequent works that appeared became ordinary.

This competition mainly focused on design drawings and not the finished product. Only in international competitions would they use the finished product for comparison.

Not only the judges but also the audience felt that after seeing Molly’s high-quality, perfect design, the sketches of the others’ work tasted off.

It was as if after tasting exotic delicacies, one would no longer relish ordinary dishes.

In other words, Molly’s design drawings raised the bar so high that it was difficult to appreciate any other designs.

The only design they remembered was Molly’s.

Seeing everyone so excited, Natalie Lambert was overjoyed.

“Finally, Ivy, my cousin, will certainly get a good ranking.”

“I think so too. At least she will be in the top three.” Tiffany Smith, who was next to her, was also very happy and unavoidably gave Natalie a look of envy, “I wish I had such a brilliant cousin.”

Ivy Thompson was not only beautiful but also powerful. Most importantly, she could represent the “W” organization in the competition.

To be able to represent the “W” organization, she must be the best among the organization.

“I heard that your family’s stocks have surged. Natalie, congratulations.” Tiffany Smith was delighted for her friend.

Natalie Lambert also had a full smile on her face. It was natural to be pleased when things were going well, especially when having such a wonderful cousin.

“Natalie, Catherine is speaking in the group.” Tiffany Smith pointed to her cell phone.

On the cell phone, Catherine Brown sent a message: “Daniel Thompson and Gillian Thompson are sitting next to me.”

Natalie Lambert’s smile suddenly froze on her face.

She turned her head towards the last row without concern for the eyes of the people around her.

Catherine waved at her, then pointed to her side.

Gillian Thompson and Daniel Thompson sat calmly on the side.

Natalie Lambert figured it out immediately, it was Gillian Thompson who brought Daniel Thompson here.

Although Daniel Thompson was wearing sunglasses, a curious person could easily find out about this.

Daniel Thompson was publicly known as a person with dementia. If the reporters saw this, it would definitely be breaking news.

Catherine sent a “question mark” emoji in the group chat.

“Natalie, Daniel Thompson is your uncle, right? Based on his conversation style, he doesn’t seem to have dementia. Is he faking his illness?”

Catherine’s words made Natalie Lambert’s heart skip a beat.

Last time, the news about Uncle falling ill was spread far and wide. It was precisely his “pretending to be sick” method that had less impact on both companies.

There were many reporters and live bloggers here. If she let it slip that Uncle was watching the match, then all the work done before would be in vain.

She anxiously sent a message in the Thompson family group chat without Daniel Thompson: What should we do, Uncle and Gillian Thompson are here.

Joshua Thompson was the first to see the message, his stubborn face radiating waves of chill.

He turned his head and glanced, his eyes squinted, and he immediately stood up and strode towards the back.

“Joshua!” Natalie Lambert called in a low voice, “Don’t attract too much attention, there are reporters here!”

The reporters stood in two rows of seats. When Joshua Thompson stood up, it caused a bit of a commotion.

But luckily, these reporters were all focused on the competition, without any mental bandwidth to pay attention to anything else.

Joshua Thompson’s face was as black as charcoal, just as he was about to walk back, Damian Thompson held him back.

“I’ll go.”

Joshua Thompson didn’t say a word.

Damian Thompson patted his shoulder, and walked towards the back.

He knew about Joshua’s temper. If he confronted Father, they might end up fighting, which would be disadvantageous for Fourth Sister who was competing.

There were so many people here, and they, the Thompson family, absolutely could not hold Fourth Sister back.

Joshua Thompson’s eyebrows furrowed, and his eyes of disgust fell on Nicholas Thompson.

“Where did Gillian Thompson get her ticket from?”

It was unfathomable for Gillian Thompson and Daniel Thompson to appear at the same time, no one would believe it was a coincidence.

Thinking about his naive second brother, for the first time, Joshua Thompson felt a sense of repulsion towards him.

“If she ruins Ivy’s prospects, I will personally break her hand.”

With a broken leg and now a broken hand, Gillian Thompson was completely destroyed for life.
