The man smiled widely. “Great. Come closer,” he said. And Ivy did it.
“All right. So, let go of him, and I’m coming,” Ivy asserted in a calmer tone.
The man nodded and smiled at her in a perverted way. Ivy, who was making her way towards the man, grabbed a bottle on the right table and simply hid it on her back as she flashed a smile at the guy to lure him.
The man was about to reach out when she got closer, but suddenly, Ivy slammed the bottle that she was holding into the man’s head, making him howl like a pig. “Ugh!”
The man lost his guard made Ivy take the chance to take him down. Ivy raised his hand and folded his wrist downwards, quickly making him lose the ability to resist. She pushed him down and she kicked him in the chest and the man fell on the cold floor. The man groaned in pain and did not even have the strength to stand up because of the hard blow from Ivy’s kick.
The loud music inside faded, and after a few moments, silence filled in.
Everyone who saw the scene was in a state of shock.
The known bully with a bulky figure-a giant, had been knocked down by a beautiful woman?
Ivy heaved a deep sigh and looked at the man. She didn’t move a hand and engaged in a fight for three years. Still, she was grateful because she still had the skill.
She walked closer to the man and stepped her right foot on the man’s chest, restraining him from moving. “You shouldn’t have done that,” she coldly uttered and kicked him into a downward position which made the man groan in pain.
Ivy let go of him as she walked to the nearby table and grabbed a glass with alcohol poured into it. She gets back in front of the man.
“Here, have some drink,” she said, which made the man shake his head and beg for her forgiveness.
No one dared to meddle with the situation.
Ivy moved down and reached out for the man’s hair and grip into it… forcing him to raise his head. “You drink this, or I will help-“
“S-Spare me please,” the man pleaded and even clasped his hand together. His abdomen is still freaking hurt, which totally weakens him. the man couldn’t believe that a beautiful lady like Ivy possesses such strength.
Since the man won’t move, Ivy poured the liquid into the man’s head and pushed him down again before she stood up and threw the glass near the man’s head, and it produced a cracking sound.
People inside were wondering how did she do it. And she is even not bothered nor fears the man at all and deals with him in just a swirl in the wind.
The crowd couldn’t help to get amazed by it.
Ivy never bothered to roam her eyes around and walked towards Windy. She moved down and slightly slapped Windy’s face. “I will award you as the best actress later,” she uttered, making Windy open her eyes.
Ivy knew that Windy was just pretending that she had fainted earlier. Well, she almost got her, but when she went closer to the man, she saw how her left eye opened as she took a peek.
Windy smiled and stood up.
Ivy sighed. “Let’s go,” she said.
When they left the bar, Ivy seemed not to know that few paparazzi were excited to report the incident. Suddenly, one paparazzi called someone on the phone. “Duke, you wouldn’t believe this, but we just took a video of Ivy while beating a man in the bar. And I know you can use this against her, and this will be a huge bomb that will ruin her image.”
On the other line, Duke suddenly stopped eating and said, “post it.”
When Duke ended the call, a playful smile crept into his face. You’ll be doomed, Ivy Reed.
Wait, is she still using the surname Reed?
Duke shook his head. He had seen her for three years, but he didn’t even find out about Ivy’s maiden name when she got married to Wyatt.
How about Wyatt? Does he know about Ivy’s real identity? Or she’s also a stranger to him?
Late at night, the paparazzi dared to post the edited clips of Ivy’s fight on the internet and completely ignored the consequences of his action. He edited it, cut some scenes, and only left parts that would lead netizens to show their judgment toward Ivy.
It was five in the morning when Ivy woke up. Today is her first day at work, after staring at herself in front of the mirror for about fifteen minutes. Ivy went down.
When she was about to step her foot on the last step of the staircase, she suddenly heard a car screech. She frowned and walked towards the main door. She frowned when she saw Windy step out of her car.
Ivy crossed her arms in front of her chest. “What-“
“Girl! Netizens are making a feast again on the Internet. Screwing you!” Windy asserted as she went closer to her.
“Screw? Why do you say so?” she asked.
Windy rolled her eyes at her, making Ivy smirk.
Windy unlocked her phone and tapped it a few times to show Ivy’s video. She went closer to her and tapped the play button on her phone screen.
Ivy’s forehead creased when she watched the video-it was the scene inside the bar last night when she fought with that bully. When her eyes darted into the comments, she scoffed and let out a sarcastic chuckle.
“Really? Of course, I beat that man, and I won’t deny it. Fierce ex-wife? Maybe,” she uttered and shrugged her shoulder.
A sly smirk formed on her lips and stopped the video. “Don’t bother about this. This piece of crap will destroy my image. Let’s get to work,” Ivy said calmly.
“W-What? Are you serious?”
Ivy arched her brow. “Leave it alone. I’ll take care of it. Just get inside your car and let’s go to work,” she said.
Windy slightly frowned. “Aren’t you gonna ride in my car-“
Ivy pointed the car a few meters away from them, making Windy nod.
“-Ah, I see,” she replied.
Suddenly, the butler approaches Ivy. “Miss, the driver is waiting for you,” he said.
Ivy smiled, and her eyes went down to the bunch of keys that the butler was holding. “No, I will drive,” she said.
The butler then nodded and did not hesitate to show the keys that lingered in a round ring. “I am expecting it, Miss Morgan,” the butler replied and smiled, “your father specially selected several of the latest styles of Maserati and Porsche, and it’s all in the garage.”
“There’s no Ferrari?” Ivy asked as she crossed her arms in front of her chest.
“A few styles of Lamborghini and Ferrari that were ordered from abroad have not yet arrived, Miss. It will take a few more days,” the butler replied.
While hearing the conversation between Ivy and the butler about cars, Windy couldn’t help to gasp and secretly wonder. Her uncle Leo really loves Ivy to the extreme that he reserves too many luxurious cars in their garage. And she knew that the little sports car that she drove was probably not enough to buy the tires of those branded luxury cars.
Ivy was very pleased about his father’s treatment. However, she can’t go to work with those cars. She sighed helplessly. “I will go to work as an ordinary person who lives an ordinary life. I can’t just expose to the public that I can afford to drive a worth of million dollars car. And,” she turned to Windy, “I’ll just go with Windy then,” she added and smiled.
The butler was expecting Ivy’s sudden reaction again since Leo instructed him about his daughter. He then bowed his head, and when he looked at Windy, he said, “take good care of the young miss, Miss Adams.”
Windy smiled. “You can count on me, and it is my honor to be Ivy’s driver,” she replied.
Ivy shook her head and pulled Windy towards her car.
As soon as Ivy and Windy arrived at the company, Cooper held a meeting to introduce a new vice president formally-this position has been vacant for a long time. And many coveted this position. And before the meeting was adjourned, someone questioned Ivy’s details and background. Except that Ivy was Wyatt Reed’s ex-wife, the rest are blank-it was carefully hidden.
Anna Gomez, who has worked for the company for a long time-a woman that is qualified to be in that position, was dissatisfied with the sudden announcement. She desired the position for a long time, so why was it given to a person who could not run a business?
“What is she capable of?” Anna asked, “can the former wife of one of a well-known tycoon can be qualified for this job?” she scoffed, “and I disagree with this.
Anna wanted to object from the beginning, but she just waited for the time that Cooper was about to dismiss.
Cooper looked down at his watch and lifted his head as he roamed his eyes around. “Those who oppose my decision, you can pass a resignation letter, and I will approve it right away,” he uttered, his voice indifferent and ruthless.
After hearing Cooper’s words, people inside became stiff as silence filled in.
Anna Gomez grimaced. She wanted to burst into anger. She has been in the company for so many years. The company pays her more than she deserves.
