Molly put down the plate. She wanted to walk away. Knowing that her encounter with Abigail would be unpleasantly awkward, she wanted to avoid Abigail and her gang.Unfortunately, Abigail spotted Molly. She picked up her skirt while sauntering toward Molly. "Hi, Ms. May," she greeted Molly with grace.The ladies exchanged looks. They thought Molly was Abigail's friend, and since they were here to socialize on behalf of their families, they followed Molly. One of them asked, "Abigail, you know this lady?"The ladies were checking Molly out. Molly was donned in a long black dress, revealing her fair skin over her beautiful collarbone. Despite her aloofness, they could not take their eyes off her beauty. Assuming that abundant efforts must have been invested to nurture a beauty as outstanding as Molly, the ladies thought she was an heiress from one of the prominent families.Abigail acted as if nothing had happened. She put on a friendly façade when she introduced Molly to the ladies.
The way Benjamin said it made it sound like he was someone very close to Molly. His attitude gave Sean an indescribable irritation.Sean slightly pressed his lips. He remained calm as he said, "That won't be necessary. It's my pleasure to take care of them since I've been eating the meals she cooks every day."His remarks were an innuendo that would leave ample room for interpretation.Without others noticing, Benjamin's hand by his side clenched into a fist. At that moment, it was as if the world had fallen silent, and gun smoke had filled the air between them.Molly had no idea about the tussle between Sean and Benjamin. She was busy dealing with Abigail.'Sean canceled the deal with Noland Group to avoid rumors about the marriage alliance between him and Abigail. By rights, given Abigail's character, she should resent me. But tonight, when we met again, she acted like nothing had happened. What is she up to?' Molly did not know Abigail well enough to figure out her motive.As
"Of course we know each other. We've known each other for a while." As usual, Benjamin wanted to make Molly look good. Although he had no idea who Abigail was, there was no need to hesitate to protect the one he loved.Molly had a vague smirk on her face while she was looking at Abigail, who had said wanting to introduce Molly to Benjamin.Abigail was utterly embarrassed. Her facial expression changed several times. However, in the end, she gave it a laugh. She sounded regretful and thankful as she said, "Dr. May, you should've told me earlier, so I wouldn't have puffed myself up saying boastful things like I want to introduce Mr. Forts to you." She put on a faint smile, looking decent, and there was a hint of feminine shyness in her tone.Molly averted her gaze without moving. 'This woman is not as simple as I thought. She has some tricks up her sleeves. She is pretty skilled at freeing herself of awkward situations. Nobody will criticize her when she put it that way.'However, Mo
The wind was as cool as water at night. Molly and Benjamin were walking away from the banquet, and the noise gradually faded."What did she say to you, and who was she? Why do I have the impression that you two aren't getting along?" Benjamin inquired.Molly did not take Abigail seriously, and when Benjamin inquired, she simply informed him casually."I'm not sure. When she saw me, she wanted to introduce me to a job, and then she wanted to introduce me to you, the genius doctor. I'm sure she had her own thoughts on people and things." Molly did not say anything about what Abigail had done to her before, and Benjamin just frowned."I can't believe she's so cunning. You should keep your distance from her," said Benjamin. He meant that he was concerned that Molly would suffer due to that scheming lady.Molly, on the other hand, was unconcerned.After a brief conversation, Benjamin excused himself because he could not stay any longer and needed to entertain other guests.Molly rema
Sean smiled and wondered, 'Which part of us looks engaged?'Sean elaborated, "Mr. Lane, I believe you have misunderstood. I'm not engaged, and this lady is not who you think she is. She's just a friend."Sean said it bluntly, and the area fell silent for a moment.Mr. Lane could not really help but feel embarrassed. He simply wanted to come over and talk. He said that because they were so well-matched and close.Mr. Lane smiled as he stretched out his hand, holding the wine, and said, "Then I'll drink a glass of wine to compensate Mr. Anderson's friend for my embarrassment."Molly realized Mr. Lane toasting the wine glass in front of her. It was obviously inappropriate for her to refuse because Mr. Lane was older than her and an elder."It's okay," Molly said softly, sipping her wine glass.Never slap the smiler, as the saying goes."Then I'll go in first. Mr. Anderson, we'll talk again later." Mr. Lane stated. He waved his hand and walked away.Molly frowned lightly as she wa
After asking around, Abigail learned that Sean had been spotted outside. She looked for him and saw Molly shamelessly leaning against Sean, holding hands.Witnessing that scene enraged her far more than seeing the photos had. Her face was contorted with rage, her eyes were hostile, and her heart was rife with emotions such as hatred, resentment, and jealousy.Abigail desperately wanted to rush over and pull Molly away, but her consciousness restrained her. After all, she was the Nolan family's daughter.Sean was so preoccupied with the drunken Molly that he didn't notice the stare from behind.'I don't think we should stay like this for long.' Sean pondered. He touched his brow and looked at Molly, half-lying on his body. That was when he realized he had a headache."Don't move; I'll drive you home," Sean stated. He quickly called Tony and told him what had happened. A flushed face leaned in front of Sean's nose as soon as he hung up the phone and asked, "Did you say anything?"T
Sean sighed heavily in his heart, and he could not stand by and watch her take her dress off in front of him, so he tried everything he could to stop it.However, Molly messed up her dress on her own, exposing a large portion of her body to Sean's gaze.The black dress is like a blackboard at that point, lined with her half-concealed boobs and exceptionally snow-white.Sean took a deep breath after being stunned. He still had two small hands in his palm, moving restlessly and bouncing Molly's boobs. It was absolutely stunning.Sean became aware that something in his lower body seemed to want to break free from the cocoon, surging in secret. He has always been desire-free and has excellent self-control. His health may not have been great over the years, but a lot of women have flocked to his arms.Except for this woman who knew nothing, Sean was uninterested in those women.Sean stifled his restlessness by pulling Molly's dress up and gently coaxing her, "I'll fan the wind for you
When Molly awoke, it was already the following day. She still had a slight headache and lay in bed for a few minutes before getting up.Molly caught sight of something unexpected in her room: a men's jacket. 'Who's this?' she exclaimed.Molly eventually remembered what had happened the night before and realized it was Sean's coat.Molly was taken aback by flashes of memory that struck her like a few thunderbolts to her skull.'Oh my God, what stupid things have I done? Everyone agreed that drinking would lead to mistakes. Why didn't I pay attention? No, it's all Benjamin's fault; why is there so much alcohol in the red wine?! I just took a sip and got drunk until I fell into the arms of a man.'Molly was perplexed. She was a wreck after drinking and could not believe she would misbehave in front of Sean. Her mind was already in disarray.The triplets noticed Molly coming down the stairs after she went downstairs. They all gathered and inquired, "Mommy, are you feeling better now?
