Chapter 2127
Ivy’s gaze dropped, the weight of realization heavy in her eyes. She knew she wasn’t the one he desired, which was
precisely why he hadn’t stayed with her today.
But she quickly covered for Balfour with an excuse, “He’s swamped with work and so busy. Who isn’t working these
days? I should- be heading to the studio soon myself.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtA small laugh escaped Ivy, but the tears brimming in her eyes made Grandma’s heart ache even more.
“What happened next? How did Balfour find out you were kidnapped?” Grandma asked, her voice laced with
concern.
Ivy bit her lip, hesitant, “I forced the kidnapper to charge a million dollars on the credit card Balfour gave me. He
sensed something was off and came after me with help. If it wasn’t for his sharp instincts, I might have…”
Grandma’s expression turned frosty, “My dear, you’ve been through so much. Did they find out who was behind it?”
Ivy was torn. How could she admit that the person who had harmed her was her own flesh and blood?
“It was…
Clara.”
Grandpa pondered for a moment, “That name sounds a bit familiar.”
Ivy sighed, “Grandpa, you’re not wrong. She’s my sister.”
“What?”
Both Grandma and Grandpa were flabbergasted. The idea of a sister meticulously plotting against her own sibling

Taking a day off is only reasonable. If you’re worried about speaking to the crew, I’ll handle it.”
She reached for her phone, but Ivy quickly stopped her.
“Grandma, there’s no need! If we don’t film today’s scenes, it’ll delay the whole production schedule. Besides,
Clara’s been arrested. She’s in jail now so no one else is going to hurt me!”
Yet, the old lady felt the outside world was fraught with dangers. Even Ivy’s sister could hurt her, not to mention
others.
“Do you really have to go to the set today?” Grandma asked. Her brow was furrowed with worry, but seeing Ivy
nod, she didn’t push further.
