Chapter 78


    Leo Morgan hissed and curled his lips. “Perfect timing. I was on my way to meet them.”


    Ivy tugged on her father’s sleeve, slightly concerned. “Dad, today is ourpany’s big day, so don’t


    make a big deal with them. It’s fine if others make fun of them, but it’s not worth it if it hurts us.”


    “Don’t worry. I’ve got this.” Leo Morgan said.


    Ivy’s friends, Windy Adams and Agatha Hart, both entered the room at the same time. “Hello, Uncle


    Leo!”


    Leo nodded and smiled at them both. “Windy and Agatha, thank you for being Ivy’s best friends. I’ve


    got a lot of jewelry that youdies will probably like. Don’t forget to grab a few before you leave!”


    Windy and Agatha exchanged nces before bowing gratefully. “Many thanks, Uncle Leo!”


    Leo just smiled as he exited the room.


    Windy and Agatha then approached Ivy and cheerfully jumped in circles around her. “Ivy! You no


    longer have to conceal your identity! Just wait and watch what st wave you’ll cause in public after


    today!”


    Ivy smiled. Her eyes were uninterested. “My identityes second. I’m really irritated that all of this


    has affected my business.”


    Windy took a step forward. “Can you guess who we just saw?”


    Agatha cocked her brow. “You’re not going to be able to guess.”


    Ivy smirked. “Who?”


    “The Reeds actually brought Alice Perez with them!” Windy was so enraged that she burst out


    laughing.


    “Do you suppose they came to disgust you because they thought you could be here?”


    Ivy coldly hooked the corners of her lips. “I’m really sickened by them.”


    Agatha pressed her lips together. “The Reeds came just to put an end to any chance of you


    marrying into the Morgan family. Did you hear what Simon just said to me? Simon stated that as


    long as you show tonight, Don Reed has ordered the media to spread rumors that you were


    expelled out of the elite circle and have no prospect of ever marrying into a rich family again,” she


    said before the other two could guess. N?velDrama.Org owns all content.


    Ivy scowled. This was nothing new for Don Reed, who was a one-trick pony.


    She turned to face Windy. “Did you send my invitation to that person?”


    Windy arched her brow. “Of course. He typically doesn’t attend this type of business dinner because


    of his position. Still, because he’s a ssmate of my father’s and I’ve personally asked him toe,


    he finally consented to bring his subordinates here tonight. I just noticed him arrive earlier.”


    Everything was in order. The only thing they had to do was wait.


    “Who?” Agatha was taken aback.


    “You’ll know in a moment, but I guarantee it’ll irritate the Reeds big time!” Windy muttered.


    Agatha moaned quietly, helpless. “Fine… Then I’ll just have to wait for a nice concert.”


    Ivy walked to the bathroom before changing into her gown because there was still time before the


    opening. She heard a familiar harsh voice just as she was ready to exit the restroom cubicle to


    wash her hands.


    “You haven’t seen that bitch Ivy yet, have you?” Eva was the one.


    It was unsurprising that Eva would show up. She was, after all, Mrs. Reed.


    “No, how is she eligible to attend such an event? She is now the most despised person in town. I’m


    sure she’s somewhere hiding, so why is she here?” Piper made a caustic remark.


    “Yeah, you’re correct. She will always be a mess. Is she really expecting to be able to outshine


    everyone simply by getting into Morgan’s good graces? Hmph! Your grandfather stated that the


    Morgan family arranged this magnificent anniversary g in order to end their rtionship with Ivy


    openly. The Morgans want to use this asion to clear the air about the scandal involving her and


    Cooper Morgan. Soon, she’ll hand up the emerald pipe to us.”


    Eva washed her hands as she spoke with unmistakable arrogance.


    Piper burst outughing. “You’re still the wisest, Mom, to bring Alice along as Wyatt’s female


    companion. If Ivy sees them together, I’m afraid she’ll be enraged and vomit blood!” she


    uttered and burst intoughter.


    Suddenly, the restroom stall door crashed outward, bringing Piper’sughter to a standstill.


    Ivy strolled over, lifted her brows, and hooked her lips. Her tone was really chilly. “Ms. Reed, I did


    not be agitated, nor did I vomit blood. Did I disgust you?”
