Chapter 63


    The sky eventually turned a dark blue color. The dark atmospherebined with the evening chill


    was unsettling.


    Ivy saw it was getting close to time, so she headed to her office’s dressing room, where she kept


    thetest collections of her favorite brands on hand. She changed into a decent knee-length limited


    luxury dress, then matched it with a limited-edition clutch and stunning stilettos.


    No one recognized Ivy when she arrived at the clubhouse. Everyone was simply catching up with


    folks they knew well. This meeting had no theme and appeared to be merely for these high-society


    ladies to spend time.


    She took a tter of hors d’oeuvres and slowly ate it. She sat in a corner, taking in her


    surroundings. Anna Gomez is nowhere to be found. Is she going to bete?


    “Ivy?” The person in front of her was taken aback.


    Ivy cocked her brow. “What brings you here?”


    “We were born to be together! It is destiny that has led us here at this time.” Simon uttered with a


    smile on his face.


    Ivy cast him a sidelong nce. “Can you please be serious? For a change?”


    “My mother requested some pastries from the clubhouse and sent me out to get them,” he


    exined, sighed helplessly, and shrugged his shoulders.


    Ivy grinned and thought to herself, Mrs. Albert is a foodie.


    “And how about you?”


    “I, umm... I just came here to have some fun, but the fun didn’t show up.” Ivy cracked a grin. She


    rose after checking the time, but Simon grabbed her wrist.


    “What are you going to do?”


    Ivy stared at him, helpless. “I’m going to use the restroom. Then I’ll leave in a minute.”


    Simon let go of her hand, not wanting to miss out on such a wonderful opportunity to spend time


    with Ivy. “I’ll wait for you and then send you home.”


    “I came here by car.”


    “Then you’re wee to take me home!”


    The corridor was rtively quiet after leaving the dining area. There were a lot of individuals


    conversing there. Someone mentioned Ivy’s name as she walked around the corner.


    “Wyatt Reed’s ex-wife is no ordinarydy. I heard she cheated on him before the divorce and


    pretended to bepletely innocent to win sympathy from the other party.”


    “In truth, the Reeds are simply uninterested in dealing with her. How else could she have lived so


    calmly up until now?”


    “Young Lady Reed is a friend of mine, and I’ve heard a little about their wedding. Ivy does not


    appear to have a degree or a family background. She had only been a housewife for three years


    before bing the Vice President of Morgan Corporation following her divorce. Anna Gomez was


    even coerced out.”


    “Anna is such a wretch. She worked so hard to get to where she is now and be the strong


    independentdy everyone admires, but that mistress just took her ce… I’ve heard that Anna


    has taken up Ivy’s present tasks.”


    “Ivy is very brazen! How can such a woman be so desired? I heard she had a romantic rtionship


    with Cooper Morgan, who even purchased her a house and a car. I’m curious what Cooper Morgan


    would do if he sees her photos with Sebastian... Do you believe he’ll go insane?”


    “She should take a hard look in the mirror, yeah. This type of woman is only fit to be a mistress.


    Anyone with a decent background will not marry a divorced woman who sleeps with so many men.”


    Ivy came to a halt and couldn’t help but raise an eyebrow. She thought that I’m always the main


    character no matter where I go.


    She lowered her head, hooked her lips, and was about to walk over to teach these two women a


    lesson when she heard a familiar, irritating voice.


    “Yeah… Unfortunately, I didn’te from an affluent household and don’t know how to delight guys.


    Even if I’m capable and work extremely hard, there’s no way I’ll be able to defeat Mr. Morgan’s


    sweetheart.”


    Does that look like Anna Gomez? Ivy pondered.


    “Don’t be such a softie. I would have fired that woman if it had been my family business. How could


    she act like she’s somebody?”


    “You should teach her a lesson, Anna! Why are you afraid of that vixen in the first ce?”


    Ivy pursed her lips and took a step back to dial Ian’s number. “Would you mind doing something for


    me? I’ve got stuff in my bag.”


    A waiter went by with a tray of wine after she hung up the phone. Ivy took up a ss and


    approached the group of talking women.


    “I’m intrigued, Miss Gomez. What lesson do you wish to teach me?”


    Ivy’s unexpected remark caused the three women in the corner, particrly Anna, to freeze in


    ce. Her cheeks were flushed with worry, but she swiftly regained herposure.


    “What a coincidence, Miss Ivy.”


    “No, it isn’t. I came here specifically to look for you,” Ivy replied. She gave Anna a friendly grin. She


    lifted the ss in her hand, tilted it gently, and poured the red wine all over Anna’s head without


    leaving a single drop.


    Anna’s body tensed up. She then lifted her head in surprise and stared fiercely at Ivy. Her voice was


    rough and raspy.


    “Ivy! Are you insane?”


    Next to Anna, the two young females were equally irritated with Ivy and attempted to defend her.


    “Ivy, do you have any idea where this is? Do you even have a right to be here?”


    “That’s correct! You are not wee! I’ll have the security guys kick you out!”


    Ivy was disgusted by these two morons and gave Anna a harsh gaze. “Didn’t you consider this


    scenario when you defamed me?”


    Anna was obstinate. “Who defamed you? Everyone is aware of what you did!”


    Ivy hooked her lips together and pulled Anna back into a wall with one hand. When Anna tried to


    resist, Ivy threw one arm over her neck and said, “Anna Gomez, you should own up to your acts.


    I’ve arranged a substantial thank-you gift for you.”


    Anna saw Ivy’s eyes were filled with scorn. “The recording with Chairman Dy doesn’t imply


    anything,” she continued, the corners of her lips trembling. Such things are bound to happen in the


    workce. Thus, this won’t harm me. Ivy… you’ll never be able to get rid of me as an opponent!”


    Ivy averted her looked and lifted her brows. “Oh? But you aren’t even qualified to be my opponent.”


    A surprised yell erupted from the dining hall as soon as Ivy concluded her words.


    “Wait, isn’t that Anna Gomez?”


    “Hello, that is Anna Gomez from Morgan Corporation! She’s been hanging around with our group


    lately...”


    “Who is that? Isn’t that Jess Croft? Isn’t that your husband, Mrs. Croft?”


    They soon heard sporadic voicesing from the dining hall. Anna’s expression darkened swiftly.


    “What did you do?” she eximed, horrified.


    “Tsk... Who informed you I just had one recording of you?” Ivy took a deep breath and took a step


    back. “Go look at your gift...”


    Anna bolted, but she was struck across the face before she could see what was happening.


    “Ahh!”


    “You scumbag! You have no right to seduce my husband. You’re a scumbag, bitch! You urged me to


    assist you in spreading Ivy’s rumors, but then you struck me in the back? I’m going to beat you to


    death today.”


    As she raced at Anna, a woman dressed in rich andvish attire eximed aggressively. No one in


    the area attempted to break up the fight.


    Ivy burst outughing. She had previously seen Jess Croft’s wife when she arrived earlier. She’s


    just as irritable as they im!


    Anna was beaten and refused to fight back. She merely hid her face and moaned pitifully.


    An obscene film of Anna Gomez and Jess Croft with their bodies intertwined in the automobile was


    projected overhead on the big projector.


    People in the area began to watch the show.


    Ivy smiled and turned to face the stunned expressions of the two young girls behind her. “It’s your


    turn now.”


    Those two youngdies were taken aback since they had just discovered Anna was not a good


    person.


    However, they did not believe that Ivy was any better and did not fear her.


    “What do you intend to do? Why hasn’t the security guard yet arrived? Even if Anna Gomez isn’t a


    decent person and has hurt you, that doesn’t imply you’re innocent!”


    “Whether or not I’m a good person, it is none of your concern. Didn’t your parents tell you not to talk


    behind people’s backs?” Ivy gave them a sly grin.


    “What gives you the right to tell us what to do?”


    “Security!” One of them began to yell furiously.


    Someone happened to walk over from a distance. “Why are you contacting security?” said the


    attractive man with charming eyes and wonderfully sexy lips.


    “Simon Albert!”


    “Thisdy was being impolite to us. She was just fighting with Anna Gomez. You must defend us.”


    Anotherdy spoke up.


    They assumed that Simon Albert, a distinguished bachelor from a wealthy family, was exactly like


    them and would be on their side.


    Simon looked at them, frowned, and then replied coldly. “You requested it.”


    Afterward, he reached out to take Ivy’s hand in his and reprimanded her in an irritated tone. “How


    come you didn’t call me to fight for you? How could you possibly damage your own hands by


    personally beating someone up?”Text property ? N?vel(D)ra/ma.Org.
