"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
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
