Chapter 12


    When Ivy left, Piper burst into anger. She darted a sharp gaze into Ivy''s back.


    Eva called the waiter to clean the mess and take a seat.


    "How could Ivy do this to us?" Eva asked. "That slut is really getting on my nerves. She''s a virus in


    this society," the old woman added.


    Piper gritted her teeth as her jaw clenched. Her hair and upper clothes were soaked with red wine,


    which made her get furious even more. Suddenly, the waiter spoke. "The restaurant offered free


    clothes, Miss. Do you want to—"


    "Get out of my sight!" Piper eximed as she shot a re toward the waiter.


    The waiter gulped and nodded as he left.


    "I will not let that Ivy win," Piper uttered and gritted her teeth.


    MADNESS can be seen in Cooper''s eyes when Ivy approaches their table. When he looked at her


    sister, Ivy seemed unbothered at all. Instead, she looked up at him and shed a smile.


    "I almost forgot," she started as she sat down. "I made an appointment with Windy to go shopping


    tonight. Do you want toe?" she asked.


    Cooper''s forehead creased slightly. "So, you''re still in the mood to eat and shop after? Didn''t those


    two ruin it? And what kind of attitude the Reeds have shown to you?"


    Ivy smiled. "Calm down. You''re angrier than me, huh?" she teased. "Anyway," she pours a bottle of


    wine in a ss, "don''t mind them. They''re nothing to me. But if they dare to provoke me again, you


    know I''m not that weak ivy. They will surely know their ces if they will try to hit on me again," she


    added and put down the wine bottle.


    Cooper sighed and nodded. After that, their food has been served, and they eat silently. And when


    they finish having dinner, they walk their way to the exit, and Ivy gasped when she saw Wyatt''s car.


    At that moment, Ivy knew what will Piper do. Her forehead creased when she saw Wyatt step out of


    the car.


    Ivy smirked when she saw Piper and Eva walking in Wyatt''s direction.


    Another drama.


    Ivy and Cooper continued to walk and stopped when Piper spoke.


    "Wyatt," Piper called his name and started to shed tears, making Ivy frown as she looked at her


    brother.


    Cooper was about to speak when Ivy shook her head. "Let her be," she mumbled and returned her


    gaze to the front.


    "Wyatt, Ivy harmed me, and mom will prove it," Piperined.


    Ivy just stood there and crossed her arms in front of her chest. She arched her brow and her eyes


    filled with coldness. Suddenly, she realizes that she might just waste her time with the Reeds again,


    so she then pulls Cooper’s hand and continues to walk.


    On the other hand, Wyatt''s face darkened. But he doesn''t want to use Ivy again, just like Alice


    did. He made a mistake when he sided with Alice, and now, he needs to ask Ivy first. However, Ivy''s


    leaving again.


    They''re walking towards them, and when Wyatt gets the chance to shorten their distance, he grabs


    her by the arm and locks his cold eyes on her.


    "Can you exin it," he uttered. As much as possible, he tried to control his anger.


    Ivy stopped and let go of her brother''s hand. She smiled faintly at him. "Just believe what they say. I


    don''t need to exin," she asserted. Her voice is firm and cold.


    "Brother, don''t let her go. That slut dares to harm me!" Piper eximed.


    Wyatt''s grip on her arm tightened, then suddenly, he nced at her sister. "What do you want me to


    do?"


    Piper bit her lips to hold her smile and looked at Ivy triumphantly. "Let Ivy bow to me and apologize,"


    she asserted.


    Ivy scoffed. "Apologize?" she let out a chuckle and looked into Wyatt''s eyes.


    Every time Eva and Piper provoked her to make a mistake, it was she who apologized. The two


    always make the small things a great big deal for them. And in the end, they will me her.


    "Do you want me to apologize to your sister?" she asked, but Wyatt didn''t reply as Ivy''s alluring


    eyes hypnotized him. "If you want to find out the truth, why don''t you go first to the surveince


    room? Your sister here is not a saint who yed innocent and pretended to be pitiful," she added.


    Ivy pushes him away and let go of his grip as she holds Cooper''s arm.


    Cooper, who couldn''t help to let out the thoughts that were running inside his mind, spoke. "Piper


    Reed, haven''t you learned about good manners and right conduct way back in your elementary


    days? Didn''t your parents teach you how to give respect? And don''t you know that when you bully


    others, you will retaliate? So, why would Ivy apologize to you if you knew in the first ce that it


    wasn''t her fault?"


    Piper trembled when Cooper darted his eyes on her. Suddenly, she hid behind her brother. "W-


    Wyatt, I didn''t do anything," she mumbled.


    This made Wyatt frown.


    "I just cornered her and talked about the ne which destroys me to my friends, and it''s a thing


    that is owned by our family. So, how can it be called stealing? And I was talking to her calmly, but


    she''s the one who picked a fight with me," Piper lied.


    Wyatt''s eyes grew even darker and never broke his gaze to Ivy.


    Ivy scoffed and crept a smirk on her lips. "You really should enroll in a subject that deals how with


    teaching good manners, Miss Reed," she said sarcastically. "Or else, your behavior will lead you to


    your downfall," she added.


    "You should check the surveince cameras and check who''s really at fault," it was Cooper before


    she pulled Ivy towards his car and left the restaurant.This content provided by N(o)velDrama].[Org.
