Chapter 193 Why Did You Choose Him (Part Two)


    After a few minutes, Lionel''s grasp loosened and she realized he had dozed off. She stood up and


    went to the bathroom to let the warm water flow over her bruises. When she was done, she leafed


    through her wardrobe and selected an appropriate dress which would veil the marks left by Lionel''s


    torturous touch.


    Sleep wouldn''te to her, so Ivy stayed up till dawn with her poisonous thoughts. ''Cassandra, are


    you satisfied with you triumph? You may have divorced Lionel, but you are still teasing him. You haven''t


    left us because you are still a hurdle on my path.


    You have disrupted my life and taken everything that was mine. Do you think I will give up so easily?


    You are wrong! I will make you pay for it, '' she decided.


    At the corner of the street which was opposite to Cassandra''spany, Ivy lingered eagerly for


    Cassandra''s arrival.


    Tucked inside her pocket, she had a pair of small scissors. It was tiny but razor-sharp.


    It was the sort of scissors people used for paper cutting and package opening. But today, Ivy wouldn''t


    employ it for any of the aforementioned functions. ''I will be cutting Cassandra''s face with it, '' she


    thought with a vile smirk.


    Just when she was having this internal conversation, she observed that her target had appeared. At


    this moment, she was hardly a dozen meters away.


    Cassandra got off the taxi, and was waiting for the traffic light to turn green so that she could cross the


    street to thepany located at the other side.


    ''On the outside she looks like a perfect and elegant woman. It must be hard for people to guess what a


    dirty and despicable person she actually is!'' Ivy dered inside her mind.


    Her heart was engulfed with pure hostility. Her freezing coldness was palpable to anyone who nced


    at her.


    ''Cassandra, I am going to sh in your deceptive face. I will unravel and show the world your hidden


    ugliness. It''s time for everyone to see your true color. I want to see how you will ensnare men with it!''


    Ivy let out a small chuckle.


    As she got herself ready for the attack, she was suddenly pulled back by someone.


    "Ivy, what are you doing here?"


    An anxious voice demanded, leaving her confounded.


    ''Why is Amanda here!'' Ivy felt like a deer caught in the headlights.


    Amanda seized the scissors from Ivy''s hand.


    "So you are nning to take revenge with these? Wake up, Ivy! How do you think it is possible to


    attack someone in the broad day light? You can''t get away doing such a thing in front of so many


    people. Do you intend to get yourself locked behind the bars?" Amanda challenged.


    She swayed the scissors in front of Ivy''s eyes before she hurled them into the dustbin. She then


    grabbed Ivy and made her sit inside her car.


    Ivy was still in a daze—she could barely focus. Inside the car, she saw that the signal turned green and


    Cassandra crossed the street along with other pedestrians. Everything else was a blur.


    When Cassandra disappeared out of her sight, Ivy felt suffocated. It was like someone had drained all


    her energy and determination. She slumped onto the seat and nced out of the window with a


    faraway look.


    Her opportunity to attack Cassandra had psed. Having realized what was going on in Ivy''s mind,


    Amanda had a wicked n. Feigning a caring look, she began saying, "I am aware about everything


    that has happened to you. That woman used to be Lionel''s wife. She is also responsible for your


    miscarriage. Your feeling towards her ispletely reasonable, I agree. But what you were about to do


    was wrong!"


    As she spoke, she adopted a concerned tone. She was such a great actress thus it actually sounded


    like she cared about Ivy''s well being.


    "What is rational and irrational is least of my concern. You have no idea what I am going through. He is


    obsessed with her to such an extent that he moans her name while we are fucking together! I can''t


    stand it! I have reached my breaking point."


    As she voiced out her sorrowful story, Ivy closed her eyes. Amanda watched two streams of tears


    trickling down her chins.

    Taking out a piece of tissue, Amanda gently wiped the tears off her face.


    "Lionel is definitely a yboy. He probably has plenty of women outside and simrly his devotion for


    Cassandra must be temporary. At the moment, he is beguiled by that cunning woman. But I am sure he


    will return to you in the end,"


    Amanda said, trying her best to be the beacon of hope for this dejected woman.


    Vehemently shaking her head, Ivy retorted back, "No, that''s not the case. While he was drunk, he


    audaciously confessed that he is deeply in love with Cassandra. He told me it has been a while since


    he felt this shift in his emotion. I am the fool who was deluded into believing he loved me! Their


    marriage happened for sheer business reasons hence I saw no reason to worry. But who could have


    known she would also grab his heart!"


    Once again Ivy recalled the time when Lionel confessed about his love for Cassandra. Just the thought


    of it sent shivers down her spine. She couldn''t help trembling. The wrath she felt for Cassandra would


    only be subsided with revenge. Her heart craved to see Cassandra in a grief-stricken state.


    "Ivy, I get what are you going through, I really do. But with the scissors, the most harm you could have


    inflicted on her would be a few surface wounds. Sooner orter, someone would have stopped you.


    And then what? You would be sent behind the bars. It''s not worth it!"


    Amanda sighed as she swayed her head in dissatisfaction.


    "What else can I do? When I was pregnant, I meant something to their family. I could have easily


    spoken for myself. But now I have be worthless to the Tang family," Ivy groaned in a dispirited


    tone.


    Once again, Ivy relived all the struggle she had gone through to fulfill her desire of being the member of


    Tang family. ''I did everything possible, '' she thought sullenly.


    "Right now Cassandra is only concerned about Qin Group. I don''t think she gives a damn about Lionel.


    If you wish to inflict pain on her then your target should be her belovedpany," Amanda goaded her.


    Upon hearing Amanda''s point of view, Ivy fell into a long silence. Amanda gave out a satisfied smile


    since she understood Ivy was absorbing her words. ''Yes, I think this woman will take the bait, '' she


    happily thought.
