Author: Glazed Snow
"Ahhh!"

Jessica's scream made Stanley slam the brakes, bringing the Rolls-Royce to a sudden halt.

Jessica gasped for breath, terrified out of her wits. "Stanley, why were you driving so fast?"

Stanley's face remained cold and dark. He glanced up, noticing that the Lamborghini, which had nearly caught up with them, had already zoomed past while he was stopping.

Stanley pressed his lips together. "Are you hurt?"

Jessica shook her head. "I'm fine."

She then muttered, "I can't believe Wendy's caught Nathan's eye. Did you see how she was dancing in the club? I mean, she grew up in the countryside, dropped out of school at 16, and learned all these tricks to seduce men. She's completely lost herself—so shameless, so self-destructive!"

Stanley's gaze grew cold as the image of Wendy's soft, seductive movements in the club flashed through his mind. Jessica wasn't wrong—Wendy had indeed learned all those seductive techniques. Even Nathan, who was usually so hard to impress, had been capti

    Wanda's stomach fell. She had to make sure Nathan drank this tea."But I've already made the tea. It'd be a waste not to drink it. You can skip it tomorrow, but just drink it tonight," she said.Nathan glanced at her. "Isn't this tea supposed to help you relax and sleep? You drink it, then."Wanda froze. That wasn't the point at all!She regained her composure. "No, I still think you should drink it. It'll help you rest earlier."Nathan's fingers paused over the keyboard. He looked at the cup in her hands. "Why are you so desperate for me to drink this tea?"Wanda stiffened. "Well, because I worry about your health! But if you don't want it, then I'll drink it."Afraid he would start getting suspicious, Wanda hurried out with the tea.Once outside, she knew she had to report this to Ivy immediately. She rushed to the bedroom and knocked. "Mrs. Lowe?"Ivy opened the door. "Hey, Wanda."Wanda whispered nervously, "I've got bad news. Mr. Lowe didn't want to drink the tea."

    Nathan and Ivy returned to the restaurant table. Wendy looked at Ivy. "So, did you get rid of that annoying woman?"Ivy smiled. "Yeah, she's gone."But Kate was the clingy type. She would definitely show up again.Still, that wasn't the real issue. Ivy knew better than anyone that the real focus now was pregnancy. She needed absolute leverage.Wendy felt a natural kinship with Ivy. Not only because both were highly capable women, but also because they shared similar upbringings. Wendy also had a troublesome stepsister, Jessica. She was just as annoying as Kate.Nathan said, "It's late. Let's head back."Stanley held Bella in his arms. "We'll get together again next time."Ivy nodded. "Goodbye, Mr. Hawk, Dr. Crone, Bella."With that, Nathan and Ivy left.They stepped out of the restaurant. Nathan turned to her and asked, "Heading home?"Ivy nodded. "Yeah. I drove here myself."Nathan took out his keys. "Leave your car. Come back with me."Ivy agreed. "Alright."She got

    The smile on Ivy's face froze. It was obvious Nathan had been there for a while, watching the whole thing like it was a show.Her mind went blank for a second as she quickly replayed everything she had just said.She had said Nathan was handsome, energetic, and could go seven rounds a night. Well… None of that was wrong. She was just complimenting him, really.Ivy's lips curved into a calm smile, and she walked over. "What are you doing here?"Nathan had caught every single flicker of emotion on her face. A moment ago, she had clearly been using him to provoke Kate. When she suddenly saw him, she froze, embarrassed, but quickly pulled herself together and slipped back into her usual calm, composed look.She sure knew how to put on a show.He smiled faintly. "You were gone for a while, so I came to check on you.""I'm fine," Ivy said smoothly. "Just chatting a bit. I was about to head back anyway. Let's go."Kate's eyes lit up when she saw Nathan. "Hey, Nathan!" she call

    Ivy didn't move. She made no effort to take the phone.Kate frowned. "Don't you want to talk to Dad? If he finds out, he'll be so disappointed."Ivy let out a cold laugh. "It's fine. He already has a wonderful daughter like you. He would never be sad because of me. But if you're that worried about upsetting him, go ahead and hang up."Kate froze. Hanging up was the last thing she would do. She hesitated, then said, "Then I'll just put it on speaker."Kate tapped the screen, switching the call to speaker mode.Edric's voice came through loud and clear. "Hello, Ivy."A moment ago, when he spoke to Kate, his tone had been warm and affectionate. Now, it was cold and distant.Ivy sneered silently. Edric had stopped pretending to care years ago. He didn't even bother to fake it anymore."Hi, Dad," she said evenly. "Whatever you need to say, just say it. I'm listening.""Kate's in the Capital," Edric said. "You're her sister, and you need to take good care of her.""Sure," Ivy sai

    Roger still hadn't acknowledged Kate. Until he did, the Quinn family wasn't about to let that illegitimate daughter show her face in front of Nathan, the heir of the Lowe family.Nathan glanced over. "And you are?"Kate turned to Nathan. Her eyes lit up like stars, bright and full of admiration.Nathan had never met her before, but Kate had seen him. He was Ivy's elite husband from high society, and she had fallen for him the moment she first saw him.But he didn't belong to her. She couldn't even dream of touching him.Now that Nathan had spoken to her, Kate quickly replied, "Hi, Nathan. I'm Kate, Ivy's sister!"Nathan frowned slightly and turned toward Ivy. "Sister? I thought the Quinns only had one daughter."Ivy looked straight at Kate. "You heard him, right? The Quinns only have one daughter, and you're just an illegitimate daughter. So maybe you shouldn't go around telling people I'm your sister. Honestly, I'm embarrassed for you."Kate's face turned pale. She looked piti

    Nathan never expected to see Ivy here. "What are you doing here?" he asked in surprise.Ivy held up a set of design sketches. "I was working. I stepped out for some air and happened to run into you."Her eyes shifted to Stanley and Wendy. "Aren't you going to introduce your friends?"Nathan nodded. "This is my buddy, Stanley Hawk, and this is my good friend, Wendy Crone."Ivy smiled politely at Stanley. "Nice to meet you, Mr. Hawk." Then she turned to Wendy. "Dr. Crone, I've heard so much about you. It's such a pleasure to finally meet you."True beauty and talent naturally recognize each other. Wendy instantly took a liking to Ivy, and Ivy felt the same way.Wendy smiled. "Hello, Mrs. Lowe.""Hi, Ivy! I'm Bella!" Bella chimed in sweetly.Nathan looked amused. "Bella, why do you sound so much chirpier saying hi to Ivy compared to when you greeted me? Seems a bit unfair."Bella giggled. "Ivy is just too pretty. Don't be jealous!"Nathan gave up with a laugh. "Sure, as lo
