“Where’s the car?” Sebastian patted Ivy’s head.
Ivy rushed him to the parking area.
“This is a good car,” Sebastian stated after inspecting it, “I’ll buy one up later,” he added.
His garage is more extensive than mine and is already full of cars, and he wants to buy another one?! Ivy wondered.
“Well, if you like it, I’ll give you the keys. I know you won’t be able to stand it for long.”
Sebastian changed cars as quickly as he changed clothing. However, Sebastian didn’t bother to give attention to her words; instead, he asked, “That was Wyatt Reed, right? He’s here too.”
Sebastian responded bluntly and removed his sunglasses, exposing the disdain in his eyes as soon as he got inside the car. He saw that Wyatt Reed, the son of a witch, was also at the airport.
Ivy nodded and appeared to be at ease. “Yes, his lover returned.”
Wyatt Reed’s presence was unmistakable, and someone as keen as Sebastian had to have seen him.
“Huh! That lady by his side?” Sebastian scoffed, “Is he blind?”
Ivy hooked her lips. “I suppose he has a distinct taste. By the way, the images of us taken at the airport earlier today will undoubtedly be uploaded online. Do you want your public relations team to handle it?”
Sebastian was unconcerned and grumbled. “There’s no need. I want everybody to see how popular my sister is,” he said with a smile.
Sebastian would not have willfully exposed Ivy if it hadn’t been for Wyatt Reed’s sudden presence, but since he did, Sebastian wanted to prove to that jerk that Ivy was an acceptable woman.
Ivy can draw the attention of thousands of guys!
“Do you know how many controversies I’ve been in recently, my beloved brother? I’m nearly a member of your entertainment industry now!” Ivy could only laugh blankly. Many in showbiz admired Ivy’s ability to make headlines regularly.
“Come on, join us! With me around, you can free to choose any circle you want! “
THE AIR density in the car at the airport’s entry was abnormally low.
“President, where should we go now?” Ken inquired warily. Should we return Ms. Perez to the hotel?”
Alice Perez cast a glance at Wyatt. “I’d like to go home first. I haven’t seen your family in a while now. I bought them some presents.”
Wyatt’s eyes were dark, and his face sagged. “You should start with the Alberts. The anniversary of Lawrence’s death is approaching. Isn’t this why you returned?”
Alice’s request appeared to have piqued Wyatt’s interest.
Has he overindulged her and enabled her to get close to him to the point where Ivy misinterpreted their relationship?
A vision sprang into Wyatt’s thoughts when he thought of Ivy. The tall and gorgeous Sebastian cradled Ivy in his arms, but she made no resistance. They even kissed each other. They hugged each other and exited the airport in full face of the public. Wyatt was highly irritated by that scene.
Alice went completely still. Wyatt’s disgust was palpable, and she felt a slight trembling in her heart. “Yeah, but the Alberts would be even more unpleased if I went, which is why I thought of going over later,” she answered instantly.
Alice’s response did not sit well with Wyatt. Ken, who was seated in the front, glanced in the rearview mirror at the two in the backseat and immediately looked aside. This was a somewhat edgy vibe.
Alice’s clenched her fists, and she bit her bottom lip. Her eyes flashed briefly.
“I believe I saw Ivy earlier. Isn’t she in a relationship with Cooper Morgan? How did she get up with Hey, the movie star? I observed that after your divorce, she looked to be rather easygoing in her love life, constantly surrounded by other guys. Don’t you think so, Ken?”
Alice immediately threw the ball to Ken so he could say a few words and help her out of this dilemma when she noticed Wyatt’s increasingly glum expression.
However, Ken, who was named, stated that he had no intention of answering her query. Instead, he lowered his head and focused on the tablet in his hand, claiming not to hear her since he was preoccupied with some business preparations.
No one spoke for seconds.
This initiative was a failure.
Alice tightened her fists as she noticed the car had come to a halt in front of the hotel. Her face was flushed with surprise.
“Wyatt, I-I…”
Alice refused to stay at the hotel. Now that Ivy had been gone from the Reeds, she has finally had the opportunity!
Wyatt glanced at his watch and remained in the car. He gave her an uninterested look. “I believe you should devote more time to Lawrence’s parents. I’ll get someone to take you back to France after the anniversary of Lawrence’s death.”
Alice’s face tightened for a split second. Does he want me to leave the country once again? Do I really have no chance?
“Drive!” Wyatt gave the order to the driver.
“W-Wait,” Alice took a step forward, “are you still furious at me?” she asked, her eyes blazing. “Is it because I insulted Ivy the last time? Isn’t that all behind us now? You don’t even like her, so why are you so concerned about this? If you’re still unhappy, I may apologize to her.”
When Wyatt raised his eyes slightly, they were frigid. “What’s done is done,” he continued, his voice unconcerned. “I’m not eligible to forgive you on her behalf, and Ivy is the one who isn’t interested in your apology.”
When Wyatt saw Alice’s stunned expression, he turned away. “What are you waiting for? Get behind the wheel!”
“Yes, Mr. President.” The driver didn’t want to waste another second and drove away.
Alice Perez remained stiff from where she was as she witnessed the car disappear from her view. Her resentment was eventually replaced by wrath in her eyes.
She was only gone for a brief time; when did Wyatt become so distant from her? He even spoke on Ivy’s behalf?
She’s exceptional!
Alice got out her phone and dialed a number in rage. “Catherine?” she asked, her voice heated. “I’m back.”
LEO MORGAN was still on the run. Cooper Morgan was also out on business. As a result, Sebastian was determined to follow Ivy home.
Ivy grunted hesitantly as Sebastian clutched to her. “Two days ago, the butler cleaned up your place. Why do you have to stick around with me?”
Sebastian grabbed her ears and almost lifted her as if they were children. “Objection overruled! I haven’t been home in a long time, so it feels strange. I want to live with you here!”
Ivy fumbled open the door, registering Sebastian’s fingerprints on it. Sebastian shuffled in with a satisfied nod.
Sebastian gazed around Ivy’s flat and saw the modest yet beautiful and exquisite furnishings. The diamond chandelier hung above and gleamed brightly. Ivy’s favorite light Morandi palette was also used suitably.
“Not awful, as one would expect from Del, the well-known interior designer. It’s no surprise that Dad says you don’t want to go back home to live with him anymore.”
Ivy drank a glass of water, puckered her lips, and disregarded his subsequent remark. “Of course! Because I’m so wealthy, I should hire the best designer!”
Sebastian decided to ignore her, grumbled, and prepared to undress for a shower. “Whatever!” he rolled his eyes, “-please do not bother me. I’m going to take a bubble bath!” he exclaimed.
Ivy dashed in to check when he screamed in surprise.
Simba’s fur was soaked as he banged around in the bathtub. When Simba saw Sebastian, he yelled at him, but it had no impact.
Its eyes widened as it noticed Ivy standing at the door. Simba hopped out of the tub and ran over to Ivy, looking adorably cute.
“Mama! I really miss you!”
Ivy took a backward step. “Take a moment!”
Simba froze in place, then realized he was completely submerged in water. He ran over, eagerly shaking off all the droplets of water from his body. “I smell so lovely right now!” the tiger said happily.
Sebastian, who was rooted in place, was so taken aback that he exclaimed, “Ivy! Why isn’t it at the zoo? Did you buy a safari park?”
He immediately discovered something after a little interval of silence. “Wait… Can this tiger talk?”
