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

“Of course, it’s your fault. She used to have no problems, but not long after being with you, she became pregnant. If it’s not your fault, whose is it?! Should I blame myself?”

Daniel’s words struck Ethan to the point where his face turned from pale to blue.

Although it was true he planned for Gillian to become pregnant, her needs in that area were clearly much greater than his. There were even times when he felt compelled to ‘fufill her needs’, yet it was made to seem as if he took great advantage of her.

As a lame man, what advantage could he take?

Of course, these words were something he could only bury in his heart. He couldn’t say a word.

“Yes, it’s all on me. I shouldn’t have treated her that way. But rest assured, Uncle, I’ve spoken to my family. We are going to give Gillian a grand wedding. We will certainly not let her down.”

Hearing him speak like this, Daniel Thompson was skeptical, but still didn’t show it.

Seeing his sincere attitude, the resentment in his heart eased, and so did his anger.

“Daddy, I just noticed there’s no one caring for you here. I’m really worried. I talked to Ethan, and decided I’m going to take care of you at the hospital until you’re discharged.”

Upon hearing this, Daniel’s heart skipped a beat.

Care for him?

Indeed, after he fell ill, the other members of the Thompson family were all busy with their own affairs, leaving only a senior caregiver to look after him.

But for a person lying in a hospital bed, they need more than just care. They need the company of family.

The neighboring old man, Mr. He, who had the same illness as him, had his children take turns caring for him every day. While he had to face the hospital ward and medical examinations alone. It was both lonely and empty.

When Gillian said these words, it was like a spark suddenly injecting into his bleak life.

Although it was inconvenient for Gillian to walk with her prosthetic leg, once she put on trousers and a coat, she was barely different from a normal person.

“You’re really going to be my caretaker?” Daniel Thompson’s voice gradually softened, “Long illness makes the patient’s children undutiful, being a caregiver is also exhausting, you may want to reconsider it. You are pregnant, and it’s inconvenient for you…”

“Well, I can’t just sit back and watch Daddy being uncared for! Daddy, you have five children, yet not a single one of them is by your side. I can’t bear to see it,” Gillian said tearfully,”I can understand my brothers being busy, but as a daughter, how could I not be dutiful when my father is like this? I know the Thompson family doesn’t like me, but I’m grateful. All these years, only Daddy has been kind to me. I can’t let people ridicule Daddy, saying that having many children is no different than having none…”

Gillian’s earnest words shook Daniel to the core.

Indeed, the old man in the next bed, Mr He, had mocked him, saying that among all his children, none were dutiful.

It’s true, apart from the first day when all his children were present, none of them have shown up since.

Although he knew Mr. He was intentionally trying to aggravate him and compare their situations, he couldn’t let it go without a fight in the end.

Even though Gillian was not his biological child, if she came to care for him, it would indeed help him save face.

Seeing Daniel’s face starting to lighten up, Gillian could hardly contain her joy.

She had already investigated Daniel’s recent life and knew what mattered to him most now.

In the past, there was nothing Daniel lacked and she couldn’t make a move, but now, what Daniel needs most is something she can give. This is her chance to shine.

“In that case, stay here as my caretaker alongside the caregivers.”

Looking into Daniel’s kind eyes, Gillian’s eyes welled up.

As far as she knew, there were three caregivers. As long as they were there, she didn’t need to do anything. All she had to do was to put on a show.

As long as Daniel knew she was the most dutiful one, he would surely leave a portion of the Thompson family’s property for her when the time comes.

“Last time I gave you that company, your third brother found out and took it over. Once I recover from my illness, I’ll just give you shares in the Thompson Group.”

While he had already given away the company, some shares were still in his hands.

These were specially left for him by Damian, who said it would give him something to fall back on.

With plenty of private money that he could never spend fully, it would be better for him to transfer these shares to his dutiful adopted daughter.

Hearing this, Gillian’s heart started to race.

Shares of the Thompson Group!

Even if it’s a small part, it would be enough for her to live on for the rest of her life.

Second brother might not be able to give her shares, but Daniel Thompson has the right to, and if he gives them, no one else has a say.

“Thank you, Daddy, taking care of you is my duty, even without the shares, I will still take good care of you.” Gillian Thompson sighed, “I am not like my older brothers and sister, I consider you as my real father.”

“Yes, Mr. Thompson, you should trust Gillian’s character…” Molly Walker emerges from the door, crossing her arms over her chest with a slight smile, “Since she has already said that, you really shouldn’t be so generous, just keep the shares.”

Seeing her, Gillian’s face changed color immediately.

Nothing good happens when Molly appears!

“How did you get here?” Daniel Thompson looks surprised.

“The shares are mine, I can give them to whoever I want.” Daniel Thompson was breathless as he spoke.

Ever since he found out that she was the manager of ‘W’, and a descendant of Stephen Crane, he had no more expectations for this daughter, instead, there was a kind of fear.

This feeling made him both bitter and helpless.

He feels guilty towards Molly, but he doesn’t want to admit that he was wrong.

He has lived a proud and successful life for so long, he has never bowed his head to a junior.

“Since Gillian is so willing to act as your caregiver, then a caregiver can’t demonstrate her sincerity. How about we remove the caregiver so she can take care of you alone?”

Molly’s words were spoken casually, but they caused shock in Gillian’s heart.

If the caregiver is removed, won’t she have to take care of Daniel Thompson at all times?

This…Is completely not what she thought it would be!

“The caregiver is not hired by you, what gives you the right to dismiss her?!” Gillian quickly responded by refuting, “Don’t think this place is your ‘W’, where everyone has to listen to you. If the caregiver is dismissed and something happens to father’s health, can you afford it?”

“Sorry, but I did hire the caregiver indeed.” Molly’s words left the people present with a changing color on their faces.

“What did you say? The caregiver is hired by you?” Daniel Thompson’s tone abruptly turned strange.

No wonder these caregivers were so professional, they were clearly different from those hired by ordinary institutions.

“Yes, these caregivers are professional caregivers from ‘W’. However, since my grandmother was killed by the caregiver and Isabelle, I thought that caregivers are unreliable. Children are always the most intimate.” Molly glanced at Gillian, whose face turned white, “From now on, there will be no caregivers. Gillian, please take care of Mr. Thompson carefully in the future…”

Gillian clenched her teeth, her heart suddenly ached.

She never thought that the caregiver was indeed hired by Molly!

What should she do? Is she really going to have to take care of him by herself?

Gillian took a deep breath and said softly: “Ivy, I can’t do it alone. My movements are inconvenient, and I am also pregnant… Let’s just keep the caregiver.”

“Keep them, to be commanded by you?” Molly laughed, “Didn’t you say that no one in the Thompson family is as filial as you, and you want to show your filial piety? How come you can’t handle fewer caregivers? Could it be that you didn’t really come to take care, but to put on a show?”

Molly had a smile on her face, but her eyes weren’t smiling.

Originally, she wanted to find Ethan Hopkins herself, but she never expected that following the address given by No. 6, she would arrive at the hospital.

As soon as she entered the door, she heard Gillian criticizing her older brothers.

If it’s just her, it can be said, but if the older brothers are dragged in, she cannot bear it.

Upon hearing the word “playing”, Daniel Thompson was stricken, and glanced at the straight back of Gillian: “Gillian, I believe in you. Even if it’s just you alone, you can take care of me well. These caregivers, we don’t need them!”

Hearing this, Gillian’s heart contracted sharply, and her lip corners twitched slightly.

She has to take care alone?

With her morning sickness and inconvenient legs, how can she take care?

What Daniel Thompson said is pushing her into a fire pit!
