As the elevator doors closed, Ivy and Lilith both sighed in relief, then shared a smile.
"This place is so eerie, it's terrifying." After getting into the car, Lilith stroked her pregnant belly, looking scared. "Ivy, I was genuinely worried the negative energy over there might affect my baby."
Ivy chuckled and then sank into deep concern. "This situation is too mysterious. I'm worried she might do something outrageous."
"Don't worry too much." Lilith waved her hand. "She came to the city clearly looking for a man. It's just that she's now fixated on you..."
Thinking of this, Lilith's heart chilled, and she fell into panic. "Ivy, don't come here again in the future. I'm really afraid she might devour you completely."
"Let me think about what to do first." After pondering for a moment, Ivy decided to hold her ground.
Back in City S, Ivy went to the hospital and, together with her family, picked up Andy to bring him home.
In a couple of
Ivy's spirits lifted. "Where is he?" But unexpectedly, Dom put on a mysterious look and glanced at her meaningfully. "Go and ask your dear husband." "Shawn?" The gleam in Ivy's eyes instantly dimmed. Had Shawn captured Harry? Why didn't he tell her? Ivy had some doubts, but they quickly dissipated. Perhaps Shawn might hide things related to his identity from her, but she believed he wouldn't keep anything about Harry from her. With that in mind, Ivy looked deeply at Dom and said, "Tell me." He seemed momentarily surprised by her directness but then smiled. "You really trust him." Ivy replied, "He has no reason to hide this from me; it doesn't benefit him. I trust him in this matter." Dom couldn't keep up the teasing and his mood instantly soured. "Harry is in the hands of the Alter family. As for why it's related to Shawn, you go and ask him yourself." With that, he smiled mysteriously at Ivy and
Just as Kevin finally sent the address, Catherine glanced at it and quickly left with her bag.Soon, on the eve of the banquet, Ivy received a message from the steward of Sunrise Manor, saying that all the procedures for the house had been completed, and it came with three parking spaces.Fully furnished, equipped with everything, almost equivalent to moving in with just a bag.After hanging up the phone, Ivy looked at Shawn in front of her.As the banquet approached, everything was ready. Everyone had finished their work, and things were relatively relaxed, so people were drinking afternoon tea and chatting.Lilith and Jasson were still arguing about the gender of their child. Uncle Jim and Luke were sitting on the side exchanging experiences. Other maids were scattered in different corners, enjoying some snacks.Only two people were still busy working.Two robotic figures, each with a computer, stared at the screen with furrowed bro
Walking to Shawn's side, sitting on the sofa opposite him, Ivy took his hand. "I know you planned to confess tomorrow night at the banquet. But do you know, you were forcing me?" Shawn clasped Ivy's hand in return, tightly. "I didn't intend to force you. Tomorrow night, I'll confess my mistake. Whatever you decide, I'll accept. If you're willing to forgive me, I'll treat you even better. But if you're unwilling, I'll do everything to win you back." "Shawn, after being together for so long, you should know how important the Livingston family is to me. In such a situation, no matter how unwilling I am, I will consider decency. Even if I am unwilling in my heart, I will forgive you in public. Admit it, you were gambling, gambling that I hadn't seen through your little scheme." Shawn held onto Ivy's hand tightly, unwilling to let go even a fraction. "What should I do, we..." "You know my personality," Ivy interrupted him, giving him no room to speak.
"Shawn." She clung to the car window, softly reminding him, "Don't be afraid. I'll come to rescue you soon." At this moment, she was completely unaware that the abducted person was Shawn, the founder of DT Investment, the man who fought his way out in Englandwhen he was being hunted. He was surrounded by bodyguards. Only if he wanted to be kidnapped could this kidnapping be successful. He nodded heavily at Ivy. "I'll be waiting for you." The car's accelerator was pressed, and it left at a speed like the wind. Ivy dialed the number of Dom. "Brother, Shawn has been kidnapped..." She talked while walking, completely unaware of the figure behind her in the corner. Sanders stepped out. "Hey, Luke, yes, the boss has left. Currently, his mood is still good. Don't worry; our people are following him. Once Harry dares to harm the boss, our guns will explode his stupid head directly!" "Understood, Luke. You quickly prepar
On hearing that Ivy was already preparing to set off, Harry, who was about to go out to check on Shawn, was interrupted by a knock on the door. "Harry, get the hell out!" Originally, Harry didn't want to pay attention, intending to act as if he wasn't home. However, Catherine's shouts were persistent, so he reluctantly opened the door to let her in. "What's going on, my lady?" He said with impatience. "Speak quickly, I have things to do." "You kidnapped Shawn?" Catherine questioned, but she saw him stiffen for a moment, shifting his gaze to avoid eye contact. "Yes, I kidnapped him. What's wrong with extorting some money from Emma and that stupid girl?!" Harry answered with annoyance. Catherine squinted her eyes, regretting her decision to let him in and now forced to comply to ensure Shawn's safety. "Where is Shawn?" she asked, suppressing her anger. Harry waved his hand impatiently. "I promised you to ensure his safety
Catherine, not giving him any leeway, marched up to him, high heels tapping on the ground, and delivered a slap.Harry staggered back a few steps and tumbled to the ground."What do I mean? You hurt my lover. What do you think I mean?" Catherine retorted."Lover?" Harry was stunned, turning to glance at Shawn on the ground and then at Ivy beside him, who was full of concern. He sneered, "Money indeed makes the world go round. Even a cripple attracts a flock of women."Ivy ignored Harry's words and turned to Shawn. "Can you use your strength?"Shawn, sweating profusely, made her very worried.If it were a regular injury, he wouldn't be like this.Full of sweat, icy cold all over, a high probability of serious injury.Thinking of this, she took out her phone and saw Catherine's people watching her vigilantly.She sneered, "I’ll call an ambulance.""No, don't call!" Harry suddenly roared, "If you call, we're all done for. The ambulance will definitely involve the police. By then, includi
Doctors without ongoing surgeries immediately abandoned their tasks and rushed to the resuscitation room to provide support.By the time Shawn was brought in, Dr. Roland and Professor Watson had already arrived. Everyone was ready and entered the operating room in an orderly manner.At this moment, Shawn was almost unconscious.When the hospital director took a glance, he was shocked on the spot.He almost couldn't stand, until Assistant Luke, with red eyes, supported him and he managed to stand."What's happening with Mr. Tate!" After all, he was the director of Mary Hospital and had seen Shawn in several closed-door meetings. The director's heart chilled at this moment.This was the boss. If something happened to him, the consequences would be unimaginable.Thinking of this, the director decided to use his authority, something he rarely did in his entire life."Listen to me, make every effort to save him, and absolutely nothi
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
