Chapter 160
Windy stood not far away, her gazeplicatedly fixed on the little boy. This child was adorable, but
the bouquet of white chrysanthemums in his hands was an eyesore. Her state of mind was
particrlyplicated.
‘What has Ivy been up totely? Why is there a kid with bereavement flowers here?’
Ivy rushed out and waved at Windy as she was deep in thought.
“What brings you here?”
Windy remembered her expression, but before she could say anything, the little boy ran over and
hugged Ivy’s thigh joyfully. He raised his head and blinked his clear, beautiful eyes at her.
“I’ve missed you so much, Prettydy.”
Windy stood there, perplexed.
Ivy chuckled and gently stroked Pierce’s chubby cheeks.
“I missed you as well.”
The bouquet is handed to her by the little boy. “These are your favorite flowers!”
Ivy epted it with a puzzled expression and a forced smile. “Thank you.”
Even she had no idea that her favorite flowers had turned into white chrysanthemums.
So, never mind. It was the good intentions of a child.
Windy stood there perplexed. ‘Are white chrysanthemums Ivy’s favorite flowers? Isn’t that Lily of the
Valley?’
She walked over slowly. “When did you get a little brother, Ivy? Is he an illegitimate child of your
father?”
Windy purposefully lowered her voice as she said the final few words.
Ivy sighed and rolled her eyes. “Do you believe my father carries these genes?”
Her father and his family were all dark-haired and had brown eyes.
Even though Marco had dark hair and brown eyes, his maternal family was from Northern Italy and
had blonde hair and blue eyes. Furthermore, Marco’s wife was also a blonde. As a result, Pierce
inherited the recessive gene.
Windy nodded. “I see.”
Ivy and her brothers’ striking appearances were entirely inherited from their mother.
Pierce looked at Windy. He was still friendly with Ivy’s friend because there was no need for him to
compete with Windy over Ivy.
Pierce smiled sweetly as his bright blue eyes sparkled with that thought.
“Good day, Madam!”
Windy’s fragile heart broke in an instant. She stiffenedpletely.
Ivy yanked her aside quickly before she could erupt. “He’s only a kid! You must be patient! Please
be gentle with him.”
Windy’s whole body trembled with rage as she stared at the boy. She felt ugly in every way except
her outward appearance at this point!
‘Hmph, what an ugliness!’
Pierce, like a little fawn, blinked his innocent eyes in apprehension. He had no idea why his pretty
lady’s friend had be so enraged.
Suddenly, Pierce’s nanny’s worried voice came through his earphone. “Young Master, you should
be nicer to her and learn to praise her!”
Pierce’s eyes widened as he realized what had happened. He took a step forward and extended his
hand to Windy. As he praised her, his sapphire eyes were filled with sincerity. “Um... should I call
you Sweetie? Your clothes are nice!”
Windy’s face darkened instantly. Anger swelled in her chest, unable to be suppressed or released,
nearly suffocating her.
“So, I’m now a Sweetie? Is it just my clothes that are nice?”
Ivy couldn’t help butugh, but she zipped her mouth shut when Windy looked at her.
“Wonderful Lady.”
She swung Windy’s arm in frustration as he looked away.
“Don’t even get me started. I’m going insane from the blind dates my mother has set up for me
recently. I stopped by to see if you wanted to go shopping with me. I’m sorry, but I don’t like them
all!” Windy is in the same condition as Agatha. Their parents set them up on dates.
When Pierce heard this, he rushed forward to grab Ivy’s hand.
“I was the first to arrive! Why don’t you go find someone else, Miss?”
Windy was so enraged by how she addressed her. But she can’t do anything. Miss, Sweetie,
Madam, isn’t bad at all. She’s just being nosy.
Ivy would never dare to drive Windy away in this manner. Otherwise, with Windy’s character, she
would almost certainly get into trouble with Pierceter.
“How about we all go together?” Ivy proposed.
They went to the mall in a grandiose manner.
Windy always bought whatever she wanted. In a short period, she selected several items and paid
for them before delivering them directly to her home.
Pierce moved a small stool in front of the mirror and held his face with shining eyes, waiting to
praise Ivy as she tried on some clothes.
“Oh, Pretty Lady, you’re so lovely!”
“This dress is ideal for your figure! Prettydy is the only one who can pull it off!”
“You look so pretty in this!”
Ivy was in such a good mood due to all thepliments that she bought all the clothes with a wave
of her hand.
Windy, who was standing in the back, was perplexed.
‘What the hell happened?! This kid has a silver tongue, but he only treats Ivy well!’
Because Pierce got there first, the salespeople on the side didn’t get to say anything.
Would their pay be reduced if they didn’t do their jobs?
Pierce wanted to go to the aquarium after shopping at the mall.
He had a private aquarium in another country with strange and exotic marine life. However, New
York City had the estate’srgest aquarium, a must-see for all marine enthusiasts.
When Ivy and Windy saw the tightly closed gate, they nced.
“Aww… They appear to be closed today. All right, let’s go back!” Windy was ecstatic.
Pierce clenched his fists and snorted coldly. His childish and ignorant eyes were filled with tenacity.
“I’ll call Daddy and request that he contact them on my behalf!”
There was nothing Pierce couldn’t aplish.
If there were, he’d have Marco do it instead!
Ivy abruptly came to a halt. “Wait a minute; I’ll do it.” Ivy, after all, was the host. It would be simple
for her to assist.
She then called Greg and briefed him on the situation.
The aquarium’s gate opened in less than five minutes.
Windy shook her head in disbelief.
There was nothing that money couldn’t fix!
A professional aquarist approached them and led them inside. “I didn’t expect you toe over,
President Ivy. Certainly, the aquarium is currently closed to the public. With so many people around,
it’ll be too noisy.”
Ivy cracked a grin. She was uninterested in these things, but Pierce was skipping along in front,
asionally looking at the fish and whales on both sides of the walkway.
At Reed Corporation.
Ken entered Wyatt’s office after knocking on the door. Wyatt didn’t even raise his head. He signed
his name while looking at the document in his hand.
“Speak.”
Ken swallowed and cleared his throat. “I just got a call from Greg, Ms. Morgan’s assistant.”
Wyatt came to a halt and narrowed his eyes. He raised his chin and motioned for Ken to proceed.
Ken didn’t dare to keep him guessing. “Today, Ms. Morgan visited the Reed Corporation aquarium,
but it was closed to the public. Greg said that Ms. Morgan would like to go for a visit. Would that be
okay?”
Wyatt’s eyes were slightly cold, and he said, “There’s no need to ask me about trivial matters like
that.”
Ken had already agreed without hesitation, but he needed tomunicate with Wyatt somehow
because what if Wyatt also wanted to go?
Wyatt, predictably, stood up irritably. His back was straight and tall, adding to the pressure around
him. “How is that aquarium running?”
“It was designated a national tourist site this year. Many news outlets have reported that it is a must-N?velDrama.Org content rights.
see attraction in New York. There is an 80-tourist daily limit, and the waitlist is full until next month.”
Wyatt uttered a hushed “mm.” He wasn’t impressed, nor was he dissatisfied. In Reed Corporation,
such aplishments would be considered mediocre.
On the other hand, Ken breathed a sigh of relief as he watched Wyatt leave with his coat.
“Do you require a report from the aquarium manager, President Reed?”
Wyatt drew his lips together coldly. “There’s no need.”
