Arriving at the live broadcast room, Lilith took the stage to announce several advertisements. During the mission assigned by the sponsor, she didn't forget to place the miserable-looking Ivy, who was messed up by the makeup artist, beside her.Shawn and Andy couldn't help but feel heartache as they watched.Soon, it was time to reveal the truth. Ivy invited her lawyer onto the stage.The lawyer, with reason and evidence, presented all the proofs—photos, certificates, and more— systematically refuting every claim made by Harry's family.Lilith's studio also simultaneously released electronic versions of the documents.In an instant, the tide began to turn.Fans started expressing their anger by sending gifts, one after another.One user named "DT Investment" sent a whopping 100 gifts, and right after, the blogger "Andy Livingston" directly sent 500.In the hotel, Shawn gestured to Luke, his assistant, to use "DT Investment" to send 399 gifts, one less than Andy.He took pride in his m
The Jones family slumped to the floor. Due to the tense emotions, Harry's eyes were completely bloodshot."Mr. Jones, do you have anything else?" The girl on the phone asked gently, the emphasized smile in her tone seeming to mock his heartlessness.Clutching the phone tightly, anger filled Harry's chest, veins popping on his face."Mr. Jones, do you have anything else?" The girl on the phone asked again.Harry snapped back to reality, the next moment, loudly spat out, "DT Investment, damn you!"Harry couldn't imagine how lively their home would become once the village redevelopment succeeded.This new plan was clearly targeting their family, and if successful, they would be in a precarious situation.With things reaching this point, he had no choice but to find other ways."Harry, what about approaching the Alter Group?" Grandpa Jones panicked, thought of Bob Alter after losing their composure. "Previously, if it wasn't for hi
"After you start working, you just need to sit there until it's time to leave. Occasionally, to deal with inspections, you may need to pretend, but these are minor things, happening only a few times in a few months."Kara explained it thoroughly, capturing the interest of Grandpa and Grandma Jones.Doing nothing and receiving so much money every month—what's not to like?Amara, however, held a skeptical attitude toward this matter. She questioned Kara, "How long have you been working there?""Two years," Kara answered sincerely. "Even when I was pregnant and gave birth, they didn't fire me. You see, isn't it good?""What a fantastic company!" Harry's parents clapped their thighs, happily dancing."Kara, quickly go and ask when we start working."Kara nodded. "I'll go back to the company now. Wait for me; I'll have news soon."The Jones family practically half-carried Kara out in front of Amara, who wanted to protest but w
Everything was developing according to the expected arrangements. While Ivy was busy with the clinical trials for her patients, Harry and his family were arranged to join the company mentioned by Kara.The company was named "Happy Commune."Just the name itself suggested a very happy place."Amara, rest assured, I won't marry Harry. I'll only accompany him with the child. If you don't mind, you can treat me as your best friend."Because she didn't care at all who Harry loved, Kara wasn't worried that Amara would be unhappy. She tried to be as humble as possible, hoping that Amara would stay.Because President Alter said, everyone in the Jones family, except for the child, couldn't run away!When Amara heard Kara's words, she was stunned.She looked at the seemingly innocent and foolish woman in disbelief. "Do you know what you're talking about?"In this world, who would willingly share their man with another woman?No, K
"Forbidden Fruit?" Ivy was puzzled. "Why do you say that?"Shawn said, "It's nothing. I'm just concerned about him. At this age, he has never been in a relationship, and it's embarrassing for the Livingston family."Ivy found it amusing and asked him, "Have you ever been in a relationship before?"Shawn was momentarily surprised, "Naturally, I haven't..."Ivy chuckled, thinking, "Boomerang."But since Shawn rarely came to see her, she couldn't bear to criticize him.With the help of Mr. Luke, Shawn and Ivy got into the car and headed towards the Livingston family."Professor Watson praised my professional skills in the email yesterday," Ivy said excitedly.Getting recognition from a professor like him was much more important than being called a rising star.Shawn gazed at Ivy's smiling face with a twinkle in his eyes, and only now did he vaguely feel her unique innocence.In the past, she had been too constrained
The next day, under Andy's hopeful gaze, Dom got into the car heading to City G.Coincidentally, Ivy visited various major hospitals in City G, gathering all the medications Professor Erica had instructed.Ivy shuttled between the major hospitals in City G, finally completing her task before dinner.Getting into Dom's car at the agreed-upon location, she carefully placed the things she gathered in the back compartment. From the corner of her eye, she saw Dom calmly reading through documents. It made her reflect on her preference for hands-on work, like being a doctor.Jobs such as being an entrepreneur or an executive were not her cup of tea."Brother, are you always this tense?" Ivy looked at his strained facial features. "It's not good for your health."Dom glanced at her with the corner of his eye."You've been busy the whole day; you should rest."In other words, she should just be quiet."What a weirdo," Ivy silentl
Thinking that Ivy is really something. She presents one image on the surface but has a completely different set of actions. She told him not to interfere with her affairs, so can't she manage herself and stay out of his business?Oh well, it's just a blind date, right? It's not like he hasn't been on blind dates before. He can just delete her later.So, he took the initiative to show his Line QR code to Krystal. "Hello, I'm Dom."Although Krystal lived in City G, she had heard a lot of gossip from the upper-class society. Among these, she admired Cato Alter the most and detested Dom the most.Unexpectedly, the person she admired introduced her to the person she detested the most.Krystal rolled her eyes, sighing at the uselessness of men."No need to add Line." Krystal, now feeling consecutive blows, was not in the mood. Seeing Dom's impatient expression, she couldn't help but mock, "I'm afraid I'll be deleted by you later."Krystal f
Back in the private room, Shawn found Ivy still enjoying a delicious dinner. With one hand holding her phone and apparently reading medical materials, she seemed carefree.Seeing her seemingly indifferent demeanor, Shawn felt helpless yet found her incredibly adorable."You're back," Ivy said as Shawn approached. She closed her phone, looking at his shirt for a while. Fortunately, the shirt was almost dry, and the man seemed unaffected.Shawn couldn't help but feel a mixture of frustration and adoration. "I'm back," he replied.She opened her phone to show Shawn, "This is the second-phase surgery plan I prepared for you. Take a look. Professor Watson has also reviewed it. He will be accompanying the surgery, so I'm very confident; it'll be fine."Ivy smiled, but deep down, she was somewhat anxious. She prided herself on maintaining confidence and absolute clarity in front of patients, but when the patient was Shawn and her love for him intensified,
At this moment, Jasson was kneeling on the ground with his hands clasped, and he was shocked to see Ivy's voice call. He almost threw the phone in fear. Trembling, he answered the call, hearing Ivy's voice as if it were celestial music. "Put the phone next to his ear." "Okay." Jasson immediately rose, disinfected himself, and entered the ward. He positioned the phone next to Shawn's ear. Then followed a prolonged silence. It was unclear how much time passed, but Ivy eventually spoke, "Shawn, didn't you say you wanted revenge? Didn't you express the desire to retrieve your mother's ashes from the Alter Group building? Why, now, do you wish to declare your intentions with death? Let me make this clear, Shawn, if you dare to die, I'll become a widow directly. I'll take your money and be with Roland, or better yet, I'll be with Dom. I'll have numerous children with him. When that happens, I'll bring them to your ashes and taunt you." "I went to England to consult Professor Watson on h
“What are you standing there for? Save him, quick!” Luke was nearly frantic. Watching his boss in such a state, his premonition was extremely grim. The doctors arrived promptly, pushing the bed into the emergency room. The red light lit up, life and death hung in the balance, everything became an unknown. Luke's heart sank to the bottom. This reminded him of the early years when he and his boss had ventured in England. There were several times when his boss was on the brink of death, and he had repeated his unfulfilled revenge, telling him repeatedly, "You cannot die." However, now, Luke could not guarantee that Mr. Tate would be willing to listen to him because his most beloved person was gone. Without the anchor in life, the will to survive could dwindle, and trying to force him to live might harm him. Sure enough, after a day of rescue, a doctor walked out with trembling steps, looking extremely weak. "The patient's will to survive
Unfortunately, Shawn was still too confident. While he was agonizing over how to win back Ivy's heart, Ivy, on the other hand, had already packed her bags and bid farewell to her family.Emma and Lilith cried with red and swollen eyes, wishing they could turn into pendants sticking to Ivy."Three months, just three months. My child will come out four months later. I don't care; you must come back and accompany me. In case I have a difficult delivery, you can still sign documents for me."Ivy immediately covered her mouth with her hand, "What are you saying? It's so inauspicious. My godson will definitely be healthy."Lilith pouted and kept wiping away tears, "I don't know why I feel so sad. You're obviously coming back, just for three months, but I feel like you're going away for thirty years.""Okay." Ivy was amused by her words, "If you keep talking like this, even my grandfather will cry."Lilith stopped talking, and Ivy hugged Emma, who was quietly sobbing on the side. Feeling emo
After Jasson left, he called Amy. He had seen this divorce lawyer a few years ago. She had no significant family background but had carved out a path for herself with stubbornness and hard work. She was not to be underestimated. "Get ready, come over, let's discuss the details of the divorce," Jasson said to Amy. Amy, who had initially wanted to start a fight, was instantly pacified by Jasson's words. After setting a time with Jasson, Amy turned to call Ivy. "I've scheduled a meeting with him to discuss the divorce details tomorrow at 10 a.m. I'll bring my team there to create a scene. You and Roland should leave quickly," Amy told Ivy. "Thank you," Ivy replied sincerely. 10 a.m. was the time the nanny went out to buy groceries. At that time, she would dress up as the nanny and leave the Livingston family. Since the day she returned to the Livingston family, Dom had informed her that Shawn's people were watching for the moment she left. So, Ivy had no choice but to choose thi
Roland felt her anger was inexplicable, "Shawn hasn't done anything wrong, right? It's just that he used the wrong approach..." He shouldn't have said this. The moment he uttered those words, he immediately touched a nerve with Amy. "You understand nothing!" Amy scolded, "I've encountered too many cases like this. Nasty men say and do everything in the name of love, but the premise of love is built on making the other person happy. Look at Dr. Jones, is she happy?" Roland hung his head guiltily. "In the end, this self-righteous, domineering CEO style is just to please himself, to move himself. The woman gains nothing, and yet, because of this foolish behavior, she's forced into internal conflict, wasting time." Roland silently swallowed the tea in his mouth, feeling that something was not quite right. Although Shawn was his rival in love, was he really deserving of such criticism? "Indeed, his personality has some issues, but h
An hour later, Jasson arrived at the county clinic. As soon as he reached the entrance, Lilith carried a basin of water and poured it directly on his face, turning him into a drenched chicken. "Get lost!" "Hey, don't do this!" Jasson, seeing her pregnant belly, didn't dare to resist. "Put down the water bucket, be careful with your belly!" Lilith was still not satisfied. "Alyssa, go!" Without a second word, Alyssa also poured the water from the basin on Jasson's face. Patients and their families on the road stopped to watch, shocked. It looked like a disturbance, but not quite. "Quick, stop it, come with me." Jasson grabbed Lilith's hand and walked towards the clinic, but Lilith resisted and shook him off. Helpless, Jasson, afraid that something might happen to her, directly lifted her horizontally and rushed into the emergency room. "Doctor, my wife is having a premature birth, move aside, every
At this moment, in the hospital room, Shawn had just finished surgery and was feeling weak. He hoped to listen to the work report and then rest. However, Assistant Luke, to express his dissatisfaction, dragged out a half-hour report into a three-hour one. Closing the laptop, Assistant Luke concluded, "Above is our report. As the executive assistant to the CEO of DT Investment, I will take a half-day off." Shawn nodded in agreement. However, after waiting for a few minutes without Assistant Luke leaving, there was confusion in Shawn's dark eyes. Assistant Luke said, "In the next period, Lawyer Brown and I will jointly criticize Mr. Tate in our private capacities." Shawn: "..." "Shawn, are you really not cherishing your life?" Jasson was the first to speak, "Being kidnapped is such a serious matter. Instead of thinking about protecting yourself and minimizing the harm, you're hurting yourself. What's going on in your head!" Shawn
By evening, after completing her statement, Ivy walked out of the room. Lilith and Emma were waiting outside. "Are you okay?" The two of them anxiously looked around until they were sure that Ivy was safe before finally letting out a sigh of relief. Ivy shook her head and asked Lilith, "How is he?" "He's fine." Lilith couldn't hide her joy. "Just now, Jasson sent a message saying he has woken up. After he fell into a coma, someone set a trap for DT Investment, exposing his identity to the public and spreading rumors about his time in England. They were trying to short-sell DT Investment. Fortunately, Assistant Luke and Jasson stabilized the situation. Now, we're just waiting for a counterattack." Hearing this news, Ivy's suspended heart finally settled. Looking at her mother's tender gaze, she felt apologetic. "I'm sorry, Mom. Because of Shawn, Grandpa's banquet and the foundation's establishment ceremony were postponed again and again. It's r
Andy and Dom stood at a distance, looking at the mother and daughter with a sense of sentimentality and bitterness. "This Cato has offended me!" Andy fiercely poked the ground with his cane. "Letting my Ivy exhaust herself like this every day. Even if Ivy forgives him in the future, I won't!" With that, he turned around and glared fiercely at Luke, then turned and left. This look almost sent Luke away. He had been with his boss in the business world for so many years, witnessing countless ruthless characters and glares, but he had never been so afraid before. Mr. Tate... is in danger! Just as Luke was afraid, the surgical lights dimmed. Shawn was the first to be pushed out. Ivy, with red eyes, ran to the bedside, looking at him weakly unconscious, feeling heartbroken. Several lead surgeons walked out afterward, taking off their masks. They all looked tired but visibly relieved. "Fortunately, everything is safe. Please r
