IVY I shouldn’t have said anything. The misunderstanding and the disappointment in his eyes shattered the mood, snapping me out of my haze of lust and back to reality.“I’m sorry, this is a mistake,” I said, pushing him away. “We shouldn’t be doing this.”Casper rolled off me, but his eyes never left mine, confusion still etched on his face. Did he really think I was a virgin?The thought struck me as funny, considering I had given my body to Leon every night after Hailey told me my boyfriend would never break up with me if I just gave him enough pleasure. I almost let out a sigh at my naivety.I sat up, feeling suddenly embarrassed and a little ashamed. Why did it even matter if I was a virgin or not? That was never part of our deal. Well, sex wasn’t part of our deal either, but the way he had kissed my nipples through my clothes made me feel something I had never experienced before. I had never been kissed like that.“I’ve had sex, but I hate to remember it.” I hadn’t meant for tha

Her question almost made me check for any sort of stench in my armpits.She glanced at the bed and then back at me, her eyes still wide. I recognized that expression—I had seen it before. It hit me: she’s a virgin! I couldn't believe I hadn’t noticed it sooner. Of course, that explains her behaviour. It all makes sense now. She’s a delivery person, hiding her beauty to blend in, and she’s so reserved.I gathered my courage and asked, “Are you a virgin?”She gasped in shock. “No!” she exclaimed, almost too quickly. “Not exactly. It’s just that…” She paused and let out a long sigh.I cut her off with a reassuring smile. “It’s nothing to be ashamed of, Ivy. You know, sex can be quite beautiful, and if you decide to wait until our wedding night…”“Yes… I mean, no, we’re not…” She looked up at me, her brows knitting together. I couldn’t quite decipher the expression in her eyes, but it stirred something unexplainable within me. My stomach twisted with anxiety, my heart raced, and there was

The door swung open, and my attorney stepped in, a stack of files in hand. “Hello, Mr. Casper,” he said.I jerked up from my seat. “Are you done with it?” I asked, and he nodded, dropping the files on my table.I picked them up for a quick glance. “So now all she needs to do is sign, and the incoming fashion line from Sky Investments belongs solely to her, right?”He nodded. “Yes, sir. Every ounce of revenue will go to her, and she will oversee everything while Sky Investments funds everything she needs for her debut.”A proud smile curled my lips. “That’s good. Thank you!”Once my attorney left, I couldn’t contain my excitement. I started reading through the files. I knew Ivy would be happy when she saw this. At least it could serve as a small bribe for not being honest with her. For the past two days, she hadn’t spoken to me.She was avoiding me like I was some kind of plague. I couldn’t hold her hand or engage in late-night conversations anymore. It was unlike me to try so hard to

CHAPTER 28 IVYI followed the directions to the office they had arranged for me. It wasn’t large, but it was cosy—well-furnished and equipped with everything I might need during my stay to oversee operations. Despite their efforts, I wasn’t impressed. I doubted anything associated with Leon could ever win my approval.My lack of enthusiasm stemmed from the fact that this office was provided by Leon and Hailey. I scrutinised the room for a moment before scoffing, “They can put in their best effort, but it will never be enough for me.”Meanwhile, I sensed Leon and Hailey waiting outside, anxious for my reaction. Hailey nudged Leon, who seemed lost in thought, preoccupied with his ex-girlfriend. “What’s going on, Leon?” she asked in a low voice, her frustration evident.“Hey, keep your voice down,” Leon cautioned. “We need to maintain the act until she leaves.”Hailey scoffed. “What do you mean? I can’t work with that woman! You know I can’t stand her!”Leon took her hand, fixing his g

I smiled, savoring the way I was getting on his last nerves. “Just get me wine,” I said, watching Leon scramble away. He was desperate to catch Hailey before she did something reckless. Well I didn't care if he caught up with her,I just need him to get me my wine. When I heard the door swing open , I knew I was in for some entertainment. I took a sip of my drink, feeling confident. I could only imagine the chaos I was stirring between them.Soon, the door opened, and one of the staff members brought in a bottle of wine and glasses. “Good morning, ma’am,” she greeted politely. I accepted the drink, my eyes gleaming with satisfaction as I leaned back in my chair, feeling like the queen of the office. Well I was…I couldn’t help but wonder what kind of conversation Leon and Hailey were having. Manipulating their emotions was almost too easy, and it thrilled me to think of the discord I had sown but if only they knew this is just the beginning of whatever I was planning. When they retu

# Ivy's POVI smiled, savoring the way I was getting on his last nerves. “Just get me wine,” I said, watching Leon scramble away. He was desperate to catch Hailey before she did something reckless like calling her parents.Leon had made a deal with her parents' company, and they only agreed because of their relationship. I could already picture him rushing to the rooftop, where Hailey usually went to smoke and clear her head.When I heard the door swing open, I knew I was in for some entertainment.

IVY.The following day, as soon as it was 7 AM, I was already dressed and almost ready for my visit to F&K Financials. My eyes widened with anticipation as I looked at my reflection in the mirror; my pulse quickened. Nothing else mattered right now. I couldn’t stop smiling—my whole face radiated excitement.When Casper woke up, I could swear he rolled his eyes, clearly frustrated by how early I was up. Well, I wouldn’t blame him. He was born with a silver spoon and could never imagine what it meant to grow up in New York, struggling on the streets of Seattle without parents. Just when I thought things were looking up, I met a boyfriend who turned out to be a serial cheater and abusive jerk. I doubted he ever knew the feeling of fulfilling a long-held dream.“Didn’t you check your email yesterday? I sent you your schedule for the week,” he grumbled as he climbed out of bed.“Of course I did.” I didn’t bother to look his way.“Your first stop is F&K. You’re their major shareholder, over
