The Billionaire's Regret

Chapter 28

The Anniversary of the ABC Corporation invites celebrities, businessmen, and politicians. Also, other people came from elite families. Ivy has learned that ABC Corporation was created not long ago. The company’s background is not so deep, but they have already attained a higher rating scale in the business industry in only a few years. Their popularity suddenly rose. The key core of the group is “innovation, knowledge and life” as the company’s research and development purposes. Their foundation has been mastered and made many countries unattainable. If they can get the intelligence project, then Morgan Corporation can open a new field. Therefore, Ivy came prepared this time. Everyone was greeting each other in the hall, and suddenly, there was a howl of surprise, and everyone heard and looked at it. And a man and a woman were standing at the door of the hall. The man they know is Cooper Morgan of the Morgan Corporation, standing there fierce and decisive, making people feel frightened. And the one next to him wears exquisite makeup, stunning facial features, long curly hair pinned behind, humble appearance yet has a hidden nobility—it is Ivy. Ivy wears a handmade custom dress inlaid with silver rhinestones. It perfectly fits her curves and shines like she was the brightest star in the skies—her dress and poise shout elegance. Some people also recognize her… “Is that Wyatt Reed’s ex-wife?” “How could Wyatt Reed divorce such a beautiful woman?” That’s all Ivy heard as the crowd murmured, making her shake her head and smile. After a few moments, someone greeted Cooper. “Welcome, Mr. Morgan.” The assistant guided them inside. Cooper grabbed a glass of wine from the waiter that passed by and smiled as he raised his wine glass to signal to everyone. “Good evening, ladies and gentlemen, this beautiful woman beside me is the vice president of the Morgan Corporation, and you should take more care of her,” he announced, making Ivy frown and pull her brother closer to her.

Cooper winked at her and continued to talk. “Miss Ivy is both talented and stunning, and she deserves to be part of the Morgans. She will take more care of our future businesses. So, if you have the opportunity, you must cooperate,” Cooper added, making Ivy feel embarrassed. And when she met Cooper’s gaze, she glared at him. Even if Ivy wanted to hit her brother, she calmed herself and maintained a decent and elegant smile to respond to everyone approaching them. Cooper seems to feel that Ivy’s getting bored. He then patted her wrist and bowed his head to everybody. He went closer to Ivy. “Liam Saver of ABC Corporation is upstairs. Let’s go up,” he whispered in her ear. It’s a good thing Cooper remembered their purpose. They then both walked toward the second floor. NOT FAR AWAY, Piper Reed and her friends watched how everyone praised her. While doing it, the people’s faces were terrific, which irritates her. Also, when she saw Ivy’s dress, she felt the urge to rush toward her and ripped Ivy’s dress. Rage lingered inside Piper when she saw Ivy’s dress. It was the same dress that she had seen half month ago. It was Louis Vuitton’s dress. It was on the private shelf. The diamonds on it are the same series of natural diamonds from famous jewelry brands. Its value is close to nine figures, and even the style is only displayed in public by upper-class celebrities. So, how come Ivy has it? Piper asked the LV if she could rent it but was told that someone had already bought it. And she didn’t expect that Ivy was the one that got the dress! Ivy used to be dirty and ugly—a poor woman when she first met Wyatt. Ivy only knew how to bow her head and do the work at home without even uttering any complaints—she became their humble maid behind Wyatt’s back. And now, she’s entering this kind of party, wearing her proud and confident face? Like she’s really come used to this kind of life? If it wasn’t for the wrong occasion, she really wanted to go up and tell everyone that Ivy was a lowly woman who aimed for the Reeds’ riches but had been abandoned by her brother. Piper wants to tear off her mask and let everyone see how Ivy’s real attitude. “I thought your sister-in-law is ugly? You mentioned it to us, but she’s not,” one friend of Piper can’t

help but give a comment. “True that she’s so pretty,” the other one concluded. “And the man next to her, girl, he’s really handsome!” Hearing how her friends praised Ivy, Piper quickly lowered her eyelids as she tried to suppress the jealousy under it and grabbed the glass of wine. “Huh, my brother already kicked her out of his life. So, what else can a lowly woman do but hook up with rich men? She got a perfect body, anyway— her asset for living a life like this,” she snorted coldly.
