"Shawn?" She didn't expect that he had already met with Grandpa Andy. "Grandpa, when did you meet him?"

Andy was taken aback, realizing the potential trouble.

If Ivy found out now that he knew Shawn, and later when that scoundrel's lies were exposed, Ivy would blame him for sure.

Thinking about this, Andy said, "It's your brother, he knows him."

At this moment, Dom, still in the meeting upstairs, inexplicably shuddered.

"Chairman, what's wrong?" On the other end of the online meeting, the subordinate had already changed his address.

Dom didn't like this address.

In his eyes, the chairman should be like a mascot, like the old man.

Thinking about this, he frowned and corrected his subordinate's words, "You don't need to call me that internally."

"Yes, Young Master."

"Continue the meeting."

...

The news that Emma and Ivy had become part of the Livingston family, the wealthiest family in City S, quickly

    Back in the study, Dom opened Shawn's chatbox.They had been friends for four years, probably after attending some official's banquet. There were about a dozen private banquets, everyone adding each other on Whatsapp he couldn't refuse.What Dom disliked the most was this kind of pretentious man like Shawn.It was the 21st century, and someone still demanded that no photos be taken at banquets.If it weren't for the official's promotion at the time, he really wanted to have a fight with him and teach him a lesson about his nasty temper.So, that night, Dom gave Shawn a nickname on it.Pretentious man.Suitable for his status.He quickly dialed Shawn, and on the other side, Shawn saw the incoming call display.Muffled Guy.This was the nickname Shawn gave Dom.Because he couldn't stand Dom's serious and aloof appearance at the banquet. After the banquet, he turned and went straight to the bar to revel, which

    Bob Alter had lived for decades, and rarely did anyone dare to treat him in such a lowly manner, speaking to him with such disrespect."Tanya Potts, don't think that just because you're the main doctor at the First Hospital, I won't dare to deal with you. With your background and origin, you offer no assistance to Kevin's future. I can dismiss you at any time!""Alright, dismiss me if you want!"Bob Alter didn't show her an ounce of respect, so why should she be considerate?"You want to let Kevin pursue the little princess of the Livingston family? I'd like to see if Ivy will divorce her husband for that."She disliked Ivy, but she also understood her the best. Ivy would never go back to a scumbag, especially one she had personally discarded!"Dad, in your eyes, Kevin's abilities are far from matching up to the person at DT Investment. But wake up, that person has an irreconcilable hatred towards you. He's systematically besieging the Alter

    Harry's eyes suddenly lit up. He suddenly felt that the turning point of the matter could be grasped through his daughter.As long as Ivy was willing to recognize him, he would be considered half a member of the Livingston family. Then, he wouldn't have to endure that dead fat woman, Emma. Thinking of this, Harry sighed, "Thank you for speaking up for Dad. Dad has been wrong before, I...""Dad, please stop." Ivy, afraid she might vomit, quickly interrupted him. "We are family; there's no need for such polite words. Dad, I'm here to take you to see Grandpa. Let's go."After saying this, she was about to pull Harry to leave. At this moment, Lilith rushed in and shouted, "Wait!"She ran to Ivy's side, forcibly separating Ivy's hand from Harry's arm."You forgot what I told you before we came?"Hearing this, Harry suddenly perked up his ears.Ivy pretended to look embarrassed and whispered, "Lilith, don't be like this.

    "Grandfather, does Cato Alter have any handle caught by you?" Lilith asked. "Of course!" Andy said happily, "If I asked him to go east, he wouldn't dare to go west!" The triumphant expression on his face seemed as if he already had DT Investment in his grasp. Ivy had no way to deal with her mischievous old man and, after a few comforting words, left for the hospital. Busy with family matters these days, she rarely spent time at the hospital. Fortunately, under the guidance of Professors Erica and Watson, everything was on track. In the past, Ivy helped them and consulted Professor Watson about Shawn's surgical plan. Shawn's second surgery would take place in two months, so she needed more time to prepare to ensure everything went smoothly. "Ivy, Professor Watson will be away for some time. During this period, it's up to you and me. If there's nothing urgent, don't go back to the County Clinic for now," Professor Erica instructed before

    For the next two days, Ivy stayed calmly in the hospital. Of course, during lunch breaks, she would check the online news. It was all overwhelming criticism against her and her mother. The County Clinic was also affected. A bunch of media reporters surrounded the clinic, wanting to interview her about her past. Roland was so angry that he called the police on the spot. He had been busy day and night, but he still took the time to comfort Ivy. "Don't worry, Ivy. They'll calm down after a couple of days when you're not here." "Sorry, Senior. It won't happen after tomorrow." Feeling guilty, Ivy had to reveal her plan. After listening, Roland's tired face suddenly lit up. "Alright, alright, Ivy. Tomorrow night, I'll definitely watch the live stream!" After hanging up the phone, the lawyer sent a message indicating that everything was ready. Ivy and Lilith announced their decision. Soon, Lilith's studio released news, stating that they would broadcast an interview with Ivy tomorrow ni

    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 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?"

    "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.

    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.

    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
