Chapter 2243

The unexpected knock on the hospital room door caused Ivy to open her eyes wide with

surprise, locking gaze with the person who pushed the door open.

“Nolan?”

At the doorway, Nolan was taken aback to see lvy awake, a small lift of his head betraying

his astonishment.

He hurried over to the bedside, propping an extra pillow behind Ivy’s head to ensure her

comfort.

Nolan chuckled softly, “What’s up? You don’t seem too thrilled to see me.”

Ivy smiled back, “Of course, I’m happy to see you, Nolan. It’s just that I didn’t expect you

to come visit. Caught me off guard, that’s all.”

The smile on Nolan’s face faded quickly as he reached out to tuck a stray lock of hair

behind her ear, but then he hesitated and drew his hand back.

He let out a deep sigh, leaving Ivy blinking in confusion at his sudden change in

demeanor.

“Nolan, what’s wrong? You look like you’ve got the weight of the world on your shoulders.

Is business not going well?”

Shaking his head, Nolan responded, “Actually, the company landed a few big deals

recently. The outlook for the rest of the year is pretty solid.”

Now Ivy was truly puzzled. If the company was sailing smoothly, why the furrowed brow?

“You’re wondering why I look so down, huh?”

She nodded slightly.

“I’m worried about you. Ever since you stepped into the acting scene, it’s been one thing

after another. Even I can’t stand by and watch anymore. Ivy, I’m asking you seriously,

have you ever thought about leaving the industry?”

Ivy was taken aback, not expecting Nolan’s concern to be so personal, stirring an

inexplicable sense of intimacy.

But when it came to her beloved career, Ivy had her convictions.

“Accidents aren’t that common, Nolan. It’s just…”

“Just what? You’ve been slandered, falsely accused, and now you’ve nearly lost your life! Is

acting really that important to you? So important that you’d risk your life for it? Don’t

rush to answer me. I know I’m just a ‘former Nolan’ to you, not that significant. But what

about Balfour? And what about Alyssa and Dean? What do they think?”

Chapter 2243

Ivy was about to argue that the dangers were not constant and that the joy acting brought

her was incomparable.

However, when he mentioned Balfour and his grandparents.

The way they cherished her, yet were constantly worried sick for her sake, made her feel

guilty. The elders cared for her more than her own family.

“I’m not asking you to quit the industry; I just can’t bear to see you get hurt over and over

again. It’s too worrying. Aside from acting, there are many behind-the-scenes roles in the

industry, aren’t there? Maybe working behind the scenes could spare you from these

threats to your safety?”

Ivy stayed silent, knowing that Nolan meant well.

However, how could she manage to put on a smile when he was asking her to give up

something she cherished?
