Chapter 32
Ivy sneered and looked at Piper with a cold gaze, drooping her eyelids slightly. “Miss Reed, you really can’t stop bringing up the past, right? And you’re trying to embarrass me in front of many people, aren’t you?” Ivy let out a smirk, “mind you, it’s not me who was humiliated, it is your family who treated their daughter-in-law as their servant, and I don’t know who dares to worry about your family.” Piper arched her brow and darted her gaze at Ivy. “You’re not worthy anyway! And you’re indeed trying to seduce my brother earlier. Aren’t you going to admit that?” Piper was not convinced that it was just an accident. And how could she tell her to apologize? And why doesn’t her brother stay on her side? “Do you really desperately think that I am seducing your brother?” Ivy let out a soft chuckle. She was never one to beat around the bush and had always gone straight to the point. Seduce? Seriously? I don’t think I’m cheap enough to do it! That kiss on the dancefloor was unexpected. Ivy’s eyes were clear and cold as she darted a glance at Wyatt. The corner of her lips hooked up into a mocking smile. “Three years ago, I was blind enough to marry Wyatt Reed. However, I was already awakened and would not give a damn to fall for him again. And even he will be the only man left on earth; I won’t ever look at him again.” Ivy doesn’t want to look back and relive her painful and suffocating past. Piper, at the moment, shuddered from Ivy’s cold gaze. She felt that the current Ivy in front of her was totally different from the weak Ivy before. Ivy’s glass on the crystal stone tabletop made a crisp clink sound, breaking the awkward silence. Ivy then turned around and went downstairs under the watchful gaze of everyone. On the other hand, Simon shot a cold glare at Wyatt and Piper as he hurriedly followed. Everyone looked at Wyatt, who was standing there with a glum face. His eyes followed Ivy, who was leaving with a discerning look. Duke, who was standing on the side, was in shock. Seeing Wyatt’s attitude, it was clear that he felt
heartbroken for that woman after knowing the truth. He shook his head and reached for Liam. “Come, Mr. Saver, in fact, I still want to talk to you. Can your tripartite cooperation into four-way?” he asked and laughed, trying to divert everyone’s attention to shift elsewhere. After all, Wyatt’s gossip wasn’t something that anyone could just watch for entertainment. Everyone also had the good sense to continue mingling and drinking in the banquet hall. With a shallow smile, Liam held up his gold-rimmed glasses and replied, “No.” Duke arched his brow. “Isn’t it good to be euphemistic?” Liam was hesitant for a moment but smirked after. “My apology, but it’s still a no,” he replied, making Duke out of words. Liam glanced downstairs, crept a smile, and left. Great! Guess he will just find Wyatt. But when the moment he turned around, Liam, who was standing beside him earlier, had already disappeared. “Where did that punk go?” he whispered. On the other side, Simon pestered Ivy and was asking her about what happened before he arrived —basically, he’s pointing out the kiss. “Did Wyatt take advantage and really kiss you?” Ivy glanced at him and rolled her eyes. “No. It was just an accident,” she replied. It was just an accident. Otherwise, there’s no way to explain how that accident happened because no one will believe that Wyatt did it purposely. “I’ll definitely beat that jerk if he will gonna bully you,” Simon uttered as he swung his fist into the air. Ivy wandered her gaze around and didn’t see Helios. “Have you seen my brother?” “He went with Liam Saver to talk about business—I’m eavesdropping earlier,” he asserted. “Do you want to go to him?” Simon asked. Ivy shook her head and replied, “No. Let’s not bother him.” And when she turned her head, she saw Wyatt walking towards them. Geez, why is he like a mushroom who showed up whenever he likes? It’s really a coincidence that he was clashing with him all night? Like a ghost who’s haunting her?
Ivy arched her brow, tugged Simon’s arm, pretending that she hadn’t seen Wyatt, and was about to walk away when Wyatt spoke. “Ivy, let’s talk,” Wyatt said, wearing his dark aura. Ivy frowned slightly. “There’s nothing to talk about, Wyatt,” she replied and turned away from him. Simon glared at Wyatt as he followed. Ivy is adamantly opposed to having anything to do with Wyatt. She was aware that he was approaching her to apologize, but she knew that an apology was the most meaningless kind of guilt. She doesn’t need it!NôvelDrama.Org content rights.
