"We will come back tomorrow, then. If you still like it tomorrow, we will buy it." Layla wanted to take Ivy to a few more stores so that she would have the best dress.Ivy nodded, before changing back to her own clothes.The two exited the store and Layla took Ivy to a barbeque restaurant."I don't think you've had a barbeque since you came home, have you?" Layla giggled. "Our parents really value their health in recent years, but Dad never quite liked barbeque. He thinks that it's not nutritious and unsanitary. He has always preferred plainer food, and Mom is slightly better. She could take spicy food from time to time."Ivy had been spending most time with her parents and all meals she had taken were balanced meals and she was content with it, as even nutritious meals could be delicious. However, the moment she heard the word 'barbeque', her mouth started salivating."What about Hayden?" Ivy asked."Hayden is just like Dad. The two of them were nemeses and Hayden hated Dad for

The next day, Layla took Ivy shopping again and after visiting a few other stores, Ivy decided that she preferred the dress from the day before, so they went back to the store to purchase all three dresses.Layla knew her mother's measurements and did not have to consult Avery."Can you have them adjusted by tonight?" Layla asked the owner. "We need them for tomorrow.""I will have them adjusted by tonight," the owner promised. "Ms. Tate, you are a loyal customer here. We will do our best to fulfill your request.""Great. I'll pay now!" Layla took out her card from her purse.Ivy took out her own card. "Layla, why don't we use my card? I haven't gotten to use it yet! I don't even know what the limit of the card is."Layla burst into laughter. "That's a sub-card to Dad's account. There's no limit to it. You can easily buy a house with it.""...""If you want to try spending your money, you can use your card!""Will Dad find out?""Haha! Worried that he will be upset? Relax! He

"It is kind of like a childhood friend for me. I watched it grow as it watched over me as well." Layla stood at the balcony and stared at the building in the distance. "I used to dream of becoming an idol because I liked performing in front of a crowd, but now that I'm all grown up, it doesn't appeal to me as much.""You would have been really famous if you became an idol, Layla," Ivy said."But that doesn't sound that great to me anymore. I just want to make the company better and become a businesswoman, like my dad and brother.""You are already really successful, Layla."Layla turned to glance at Ivy. "Do you have a dream of your own?"Ivy considered her question and shook her head. "I used to dream of getting into a good college and finding a job that can make ends meet. Now that I don't have to worry about those things anymore, I don't really know what my dream is.""You can take your time to figure it out. You are still young.""I don't think I'm that young, though.""All

"Uncle Mike! Uncle Chad!" Robert spotted the two and hurried outside to welcome them.They had informed Mike and Chad half a month ago that Ivy had been found and thought they wanted to see her, Avery had told them that Ivy had not been ready to meet anyone. So, they traveled around for a bit before finally going to meet Ivy. "And I thought we were early!" Mike exclaimed when he saw all the cars that filled the yard. "They came rushing without even finishing their breakfast, did they?"Robert chuckled. "I'm not sure about them, but we haven't eaten!""I knew it. These people are all drawn to drama!" Mike said as he strode into the living room. The servants offered them slippers to change into."Ivy, the blonde one is Uncle Mike. He took care of Hayden and I when we were children. The one next to him is Uncle Chad. He used to be Dad's assistant," Layla whispered to Ivy. "Uncle Mike is working under Hayden and Uncle Chad works in the Bridgedale branch of Tate industries. They are b

"Chad is designing it himself!" Mike added.Ivy had not expected them to give her a house as a gift and was stunned."Just accept it, Ivy! Once the construction is done, we can all go and have a look at it!" Layla accepted the paperwork in Ivy's place."Thank you, Uncle Mike. Thank you, Uncle Chad," Ivy said gratefully with a blush."We are a family. There's no need to thank us!" Mike patted her on the head. "They must have woken you up before you had the time to do your makeup, huh? Hahaha! Come, let's have our breakfast! I'm starving."The group made their way to the dining room. The house was well stoked and the servants had prepared a feast while they had been talking. "Ivy, I heard that you and Rose are very close. Ben sent you a diamond, right? Just get Rose to design something for you," Lilith whispered to Ivy. "The tiara I gave you was the prize of one of the model contests I participated in. I've treasured it for years, and now I'm giving it to you in hopes that you w

Elliot shook his head. "I don't want to pressure her into anything. It took so much work to finally find her. I want her to live without a care in the world." He was concerned that she might run away if placed too much pressure on her.Ivy was already eighteen years old and could survive on her own. If someone upset her, she could easily drop everything and leave. "Haha! You were never this careful with any of your other kids," Mike laughed. "Probably not even to your wife."Had Elliot acted so gingerly around Avery, they would not have argued so frequently.Seeing how Elliot was rendered speechless, Avery stepped in, "Our daughter has just come home, so it's only normal that we are walking on eggshells. Stop trying to divide Elliot and me. We are doing perfectly fine!"Mike snorted. "You are an old married couple, so why should I waste my time trying to cause strife between the two of you? You are too old to bring up divorce whenever you please. It's not like you are capable of

"Do you think you can't get a boyfriend because you are living with us?" Avery asked."Mom, can you not say that out loud? I will only stay at my apartment on the weekdays, alright? If you aren't going to agree to this, I'm going to enlist Ivy's help to convince you otherwise.""Do you really think that I would be this stubborn? If you insist on moving out, I won't stop you. I'm just worried about you... Why don't you bring a servant along? You also need a bodyguard...""Don't... If I bring anyone with me, Dad is definitely going to sneak around behind my back, asking about my personal life. I bought some kitchen utensils, and I can cook. If I don't feel like cooking, I can order food.""What about your safety?" Avery voiced her concern."The bodyguard can come to pick me up every day, alright?""Okay. Why didn't you tell me before buying the apartment? You've been planning this all along, haven't you?" Avery started feeling slightly upset. "You even went as far as to do it befor

"Darling, we don't hate Eric. Your dad and I saw him not long ago! People just drift apart from time to time. It's normal so don't read too much into it." Avery tapped Layla on the shoulder. "We haven't been as close as we were before you asked him out.""I thought that was because he was busy. He has retired and isn't as busy..." Layla did not wish for Eric to drift apart from her family since he occupied a major part of her childhood."He hasn't reached out to us! Layla, you have to understand that maybe he hasn't contacted us because he needs some time alone. We will never hate him, and if he ever needs help, we won't hesitate to help. Likewise, I'm sure he will do the same for us when we need help as well. But there's no point in contacting him when there's nothing important to say."Layla understood what Avery was saying, but she still felt upset, likely because Eric was one of the very people that she truly cared about.After lunch, Layla pulled Elliot outside. It was the hot

Three years later…Ivy and Robert stood at the airport in Aryadelle, anxiously waiting."It's been three years! Your boyfriend is finally here to see you!" Robert exclaimed before shifting the conversation. "He's not here to break up with you, is he? After all, you haven't seen each other in three years. A lot can change."Ivy sighed, "Robert, can you not jinx it? Although we haven't met in three years, we talk on the phone and video call every day!"Robert quipped, "Digital romance.""Anyway, he promised me that he's going to settle down in Aryadelle this time, and we won't be apart again," Ivy said. Robert smirked. "He's got a strong sense of pride. When he meets Dad later, they might not hit it off, and he'll buy a ticket to leave tonight!"Feeling helpless, Ivy was at a loss for words. Just then, a familiar voice called out, "Ivy!"Ivy immediately looked over to the source of the voice and saw Lucas stepping out of the exit, dragging his suitcase behind him. A smile sp

Mr. Woods did not expect Hayden to be so direct, and he found himself momentarily caught off guard. He had come to ask Hayden for money, but he had not thought about exactly how much he wanted. After all, Hayden's family was extremely wealthy, and he did not want to ask for too little and feel shortchanged, nor did he want to risk asking for too much and having Hayden refuse. It was a tough decision. After a brief internal struggle, Mr. Woods turned to Hayden and said, "I know your family is one of the wealthiest in Aryadelle, so why don't you name the price? I trust you won't mistreat my son and our family." Hayden furrowed his brows slightly. Shelly, noticing his hesitation, quickly chimed in, "Uncle, why don't you make an offer? We're not very familiar with this process. If you insist on us naming a price, we might need to consult my father-in-law." "Elliot Foster, you mean?" Mr. Woods asked. Shelly nodded. "Yes. My father-in-law isn't as easygoing as my husband. After a

"All right. Let's find a place nearby to sit and talk." Mr. Woods breathed a sigh of relief. "Good! Our house is actually nearby. Would you like to visit? Ivy has been with us for many years, and our staff has a close relationship with her." Hayden glanced at Shelly and asked, "Should we go?" "Sure!" Shelly said. Mr. Woods immediately invited Hayden and Shelly into his car and drove them to the Woods' mansion. Upon arriving, Mr. Woods instructed the servants to serve tea and refreshments. He pointed to the butler and said to Hayden, "This is our butler. He hired Ivy's grandmother." Hayden nodded. Mr. Woods then introduced Hayden: "This is Irene's older brother, the renowned businessman Mr. Hayden Tate." "Hello, Mr. Tate. Irene was a wonderful young lady," the butler said. "We all liked her very much. When we heard of her passing, we were truly saddened. Fortunately, she didn't actually pass away! Ivy is a very sensible and resilient girl, one of the strongest I've eve

Ivy's eyes were red as she said, "Hayden, Lucas' mother has passed away, so I won't be able to spend time with you for a few days." "It's okay. Given what has happened, we're not in the mood for fun either. After we attend his mother's funeral, Shelly and I will return," Hayden said. Ivy nodded. "How are funerals handled here?" Hayden asked. Given Lucas' relationship with Ivy, his younger sister, he felt a sense of duty to help Lucas with the funeral arrangements. "It's similar to how it's done back at home. Wealthy people can have elaborate funerals, and those with less money can opt for simpler ceremonies. Those who can't afford much at all can forgo the ceremony and opt for a simple burial," Ivy said. "What if someone wants a more elaborate funeral?" "Hayden, do you want to help with his mother's funeral? He doesn't have any close relatives here, so there's no need for an elaborate ceremony," she explained. "I see. Go and talk to him about it. I'll help with whatever I

Lucas hung up, tears welling in his eyes. Ivy stood by his side and asked, "What's wrong, Lucas?" "My mom has passed away. You should keep your brother company! I need to head back to the hospital." "I will come along! Aunty seemed fine just now, so why did she suddenly pass away?" The two hurried toward the car, completely forgetting about Hayden and Shelly. Hayden and Shelly watched as they left awkwardly, and Shelly said, "Honey, let's go to the hospital. I think Lucas' mother has passed away." "Sure." The two caught a taxi and hurried after Lucas. Meanwhile, in the hospital, Lucas arrived to first encounter the doctor and then his father. Mr. Woods tried ingratiating himself with his son, saying, "Lucas, I came to the hospital to see your mother, but when I arrived, she had already passed away. What a shame!" "Are you sure she had already passed away before you came? I was here earlier today, and when I saw her, she was still alive!" Lucas said. Mr. Woods reto

Mr. Woods sneered, "What do you mean? Are you looking down on me? Although the Woods family has fallen on hard times, we're still a prominent family in Taronia! Lucas may be foolish, but are you any wiser? If it weren't for me backing Lucas, would the Fosters even look at him?" "Shut up! The Foster family isn't narrow-minded like you! Ivy's family doesn't dislike Lucas, so don't go causing trouble! They don't want to see you at all!" Lucas' mother retorted. Mr. Woods scoffed. "Is that so? Do you really think they don't look down on him? Why wouldn't they? Are they planning to make Lucas marry into their family instead of the other way round?" "It's none of your business! You never cared about Lucas, and now that he's independent, he doesn't need you anymore! You wouldn't have come to me repeatedly if Ivy wasn't Elliot Foster's daughter and if she wasn't interested in Lucas. Do you really think I have no idea what you are plotting?" Mr. Woods countered, "What nonsense are you ta

Ivy did not hesitate, immediately shaking her head. "I'm not leaving. Don't worry about me; just focus on yourself." "Staying here is just a waste of time." "I've been studying and interning so hard for so long. What's wrong with taking a break now?" Ivy argued. Before long, Hayden and Shelly had finished their shopping, and Ivy and Lucas immediately joined them to go to the hospital. Lucas' mother had no idea that Ivy's brother and sister-in-law were coming to visit her, so she appeared a bit uncomfortable when they arrived. She tried to sit up, but her body failed her. Ivy raised the head of the hospital bed. "Aunty, my big brother and sister-in-law came over to Taronia for a visit. They wanted to see Lucas and you." "Oh, this is really embarrassing. It's a blessing for my son to know Ivy..." Lucas' mother muttered sheepishly. Shelly reassured, "Aunty, don't say that. Lucas is outstanding. Otherwise, Ivy wouldn't have fallen for him." Lucas' mother continued, "I've

Throughout the meal, Ivy found it hard to enjoy her food. Lucas and Hayden discussed everything that mattered, and the conversation went smoother than anyone had anticipated. Hayden was not upset, nor was Lucas. It was a better scenario than what Ivy had hoped for, but she still felt depressed. "Lucas, my husband and I would like to pay your mother a visit. Would that be okay?" Shelly asked after finishing her food. "Sure," Lucas said. "Don't we need to ask your mom first?" Ivy asked. "It's fine. We can just head over right away and introduce them once we arrive." Lucas' mother grew weaker every day and had stopped using her phone altogether, so it was her nurse, whom Lucas had hired, who reported his mother's condition to him daily. "You restarted your business and have to take care of your mother simultaneously; you're really strong. Most people would crumble under the pressure," Shelly commented. "Ivy had a tougher life before. She didn't crumble, so I won't eith

After what Ivy said, Lucas added, "I want to focus on my career for now. Marriage is secondary until I become more successful." Hayden sneered. "Running a business isn't as simple as it seems. What if you fail or never achieve anything out of the ordinary?" "If that happens, I won't drag Ivy down," Lucas said. "At least you know your place." Ivy felt as though her cheeks were on fire. "Hayden, even if Lucas fails, I won't give up on him. I won't let him go just because of his financial state." Shelly grabbed Hayden's hand again, signaling to him to control his temper; he could be rude to others, but he could not be so demanding with Ivy. Ivy sensed that she was slightly out of line, and her tone eased. "Hayden, we shouldn’t judge people based on their wealth. Our family is rich enough, and there really aren't that many people out there who can compare to our financial state, so why does it matter how wealthy my partner is?" "Ivy is right. Love matters most. Even if we man
