"Sorry, Officer!" Ivy looked guilty, wishing she could crawl into a hole."Sorry, Officer, it's my fault," Shawn embraced Ivy, suppressing a smile. "I shouldn't have forced her to confess. It's just that she never says she loves me, and I get jealous, so in my impatience, I sought a sense of security. I promise to sincerely repent and not waste public resources in the future.""Let's not make this a habit!" The police reprimanded them and, seeing it was a misunderstanding, soon left.Ivy's embarrassed head sank lower, not daring to lift it.Shawn chuckled softly, "Although it was a bit unconventional, I finally heard your confession."It took Ivy a long time to react. She punched him hard and said, "I'm ignoring you!"She left angrily.The staff, realizing it was a misunderstanding, quickly dispersed and guided the customers back to their seats.Luke pushed Shawn to catch up with Ivy. Although they had successfully weathered the unexpected incident, there was still some lingering fear
Soon after, Ivy and Emma brought meals to the hospital. While the family of four was having dinner, Andy mentioned his plan to host a banquet. Ivy and Emma were hesitant to object, but considering the patient's well-being, their opposition was ineffective."What's wrong? Why do you look so unhappy?" Ivy couldn't help but ask when she saw Shawn's melancholic expression.Of course, Shawn couldn't tell the truth. Doing so would jeopardize everything."It's nothing. The disinfectant in the hospital is a bit uncomfortable. I'm going out for some fresh air," he said with a smile. After getting Ivy's approval, Shawn asked his assistant to accompany him as they left.Assistant Luke escorted him to the Garden Hotel, where Sanders had been waiting with a stack of documents for a long time."Mr. Tate, Assistant Luke, I've made a major discovery," Sanders said excitedly, his tiger teeth gleaming. "Our people interrogated Charlie and his family rigorously. Finally, we got information from a nurse
"You should shut up!" Tanya roared, slapping him, then grabbing his tie, warning, "Behave and go find a lawyer for me. Otherwise, I'll make your ugly deeds spread far and wide in the hospital, in Alter Group, in front of Ivy!" "You dare!" "You better see if I dare or not!" Tanya took a step forward, almost going crazy, completely disregarding Kevin's feelings. All she knew was that when she received the news, she felt so heartbroken and disappointed. In any case, Tanya never imagined that Kevin would become so dirty. He would rather choose a woman like Lisa than choose her, embarrassing and humiliating her, leaving her with no place to hide. But what made her even more heartbroken was that even at this moment, Kevin was unwilling to help her. Tanya's heart ached. Since Kevin refused to be humane, she wouldn't be polite anymore. "First, immediately contact a top-tier lawyer to reduce my dad's sentence. Second, hold a wedding with me in a week." "What?" Kevin thought he mishear
While Lilith went to the bathroom, Ivy, with a hint of calculation in her heart, called Kevin."I want to ask you something," Ivy said."Ivy, you... do you know everything?" Kevin's voice on the other end trembled. "Back then, it really didn’t, because I didn’t love you. I..." "Kevin, is your brother Cato Alter sitting in a wheelchair?""My brother...?" Kevin then realized what she was talking about."He betrayed the Alter Corporation and doesn't deserve to be my brother."Ivy tightened her grip on the phone and asked again, "Is Cato sitting in a wheelchair?""How do you know?"This matter was rarely talked about, coupled with Cato's self-esteem, and he didn't like appearing in public, so not many people knew about him using a wheelchair."It's nothing."Ivy hung up the phone, feeling a sense of oppression in her chest that she couldn't ease.Sitting in a wheelchair, how coincidental for both the boss and the employee to use wheelchairs?Blaming herself for not being more observant,
When Lisa lifted her head, she saw her entire family tied up in the center of the sofa."What are you going to do?! What are you going to do?!""Our boss is disabled, unable to walk. What he despises the most is that those who harmed him in the past can still live freely with their families while he is handicapped.""What does that have to do with me?! Let my family go!" She shouted with all her might, but her accusations seemed to fall on deaf ears.Inwardly hesitating for a moment, Lisa almost blurted out the truth.However, she quickly dispelled that thought. The truth was her cash cow. Once exposed, she wouldn't receive money from the Alter family anymore, and her standard of living would plummet.Thinking of this, Lisa clenched her teeth and refused to compromise. "Since you don't fear breaking the law, go ahead. I don't believe you really dare to do anything outrageous!"“What?" Assistant Luke sneered, laughing at Lisa's stupidity.Mr. Tate drew on his extraordinary willpower to
"Why are you here?" Ivy, who was originally accompanying her grandfather, was surprised to see Shawn quietly appear by her side. She quickly led him out of the hospital room."Where's Assistant Luke?" Perhaps guessing Shawn's identity, Ivy felt a bit uncomfortable.Avoiding eye contact, she felt a bit annoyed inside but didn't express it."He's handling something. I came on my own.""Then you should have brought someone with you." Ivy said. In the next moment, Shawn's hand had already grabbed hers.He placed her hand on his face, lifting his profile slightly and rubbed against it."There's been some trouble, and I couldn't wait to come see you." He explained, and the warmth from her palm eased the icy chill in his heart.Feeling the cold emanating from his entire body, Ivy subconsciously touched his other cheek and forehead. "What happened? Are you running a fever?"Following that, her body fell into his embrace. Ivy was startl
Luke quickly brought Shawn back to the hospital, coincidentally seeing the Livingston family discussing the venue for the banquet."I still think the banquet should be held in City A. Going to City A for no reason doesn't seem to fit the theme," Emma said with a serious expression. "Moreover, Grandpa has been through a lot of hardships in the boat and car; it's not good for him.""Oh, what's wrong? I can take a helicopter and be there in a few minutes," Andy didn't care at all. Ever since Dom told him about Shawn's plan, his gossip-loving heart was instantly ignited.In any case, he had to go!At this moment, Dom closed his computer and said, "It's more suitable to have the banquet there. We should advertise H Capital to City A. Everyone there knows about it now, right, Shawn?""Ah!" At that moment, Shawn was busy hugging Ivy. When he heard Dom mention him, he came back to his senses and smiled at Ivy. "I'll listen to Ivy!"As the words fell
Kevin arrived at the coffee shop next to Alter Group, specifically using his identity as the future heir of Alter Group to choose a bright yet quiet spot.He initially thought about renting the cafe for half a day and clearing out all the customers. But on second thought, if all the customers left, who would witness his love with Ivy?Ivy... Did she come to seek reconciliation?If she really spoke up, how should he respond? He should be excited, jumping three feet high.No, he must manage his facial expressions, must maintain the demeanor of a wealthy young master.Kevin waited nervously in the coffee shop for Ivy's arrival.An hour later, the coffee shop door opened, and Ivy entered expressionlessly.Kevin excitedly waved at her and stood up to pull out a chair for her."Ivy, over here," he softly guided Ivy, gesturing for her to sit.Ivy stood in place, not saying a word for a long time.Her cold water-like gaze
