Chapter 336
The Devil had the lightest sleep you could imagine. Not even bothering to take off his sleep mask, with a familiar stretch of his
long arm towards the backseat, he opened his palm.
I felt like I’d been pardoned, quickly placing the earbuds in his hand.
He fitted the earbuds with practiced ease and drifted back to sleep.
Molly let out a long sigh of relief, snuggled closer, and after a moment of silence, she began to whisper.
“Jane, I was just trying to get under my brother’s skin on purpose, but honestly, he’s a really good guy.”
“Really?”
I was puzzled why she was suddenly opening up about this.
Molly rested her head on my shoulder. “I’m not on great terms with my

because of his affair. I hate him for betraying my mom.”
“As a kid, I was frail and barely left the house.” Molly continued, “After that, I moved out of the Ford Residence. I even blamed
my brother for not leaving with me.”
I nodded. “Guess he grew up fast, huh?”
“Yeah.”
Molly sighed, a tinge of guilt in her voice. “Later, I realized he was smarter and more rational than me. Only someone like him
could make the right decisions.”
“Otherwise, we would have just handed over everything that belonged to my mom and us.”
“I was just too immature and reckless.”
Hearing this, I tried to comfort her, “You didn’t do anything wrong. As long as you’re not hurting anyone, any choice you make is
okay.”
She must have been very young at the time.
Very few can be thoughtful and considerate in their youth.
“No, I was wrong. I moved out of the Ford family but still enjoyed the privileges that came with the Ford name.” Molly shook her
head, “And all because my brother took on the responsibilities that were mine.”
I patted her head gently, “But he probably never blamed you.”
Gregory seemed like nothing bothered him. But it was clear he cared deeply for Molly, his little sister.
After a brief silence, Molly suddenly called out to me, “Jane?”
“Yes?”
She paused before asking, “Does Mr. Larson... only go for girls like you?”
I was surprised by her candor, but responded openly, “I’m not sure, but what I can tell you is that he and I have made things
clear. There won’t be any entanglements beyond friendship.”
“And his hobbies...”
“Molly!”
Gregory suddenly interjected with a bite in his voice, “Whatever you’re thinking, forget it. Before he sells you out and you
counting the cash for him, I’ll break your legs first.”

His tone was cold and unyielding.
Molly jumped, both anxious and annoyed, “Why are you eavesdropping on our conversation?”
“Who’s eavesdropping?”
Gregory pulled out the earbuds and tossed them at her, “Go ahead and leave a bad review. What kind of earbuds are these?
Might as well have stuffed air in my ears. At least air wouldn’t make my ears hurt.”
Molly stomped her feet in frustration!
Gregory warned, “You better take my words to heart.”
“Got it!”
Molly replied sullenly, then added, “I just thought he seemed kind and considerate. A marriage alliance could be beneficial.”
Gregory casually asked, “Am I doing so badly that you need to sacrifice your own life?”

“Said I got it.”
Molly’s response was simple, but her tone softened.
However, a woman’s intuition told me she hadn’t given up.
She just didn’t want to make Gregory angry.
Upon reaching Vista Town, Gregory dropped Molly off at the Ford Residence before taking me straight to Myers Mansion.
Ramona was overjoyed to see us.
