Chapter 324
Ivy trudged along, heading towards Wayne’s direction.
Just before she arrived, she heard the annoying aunt’s voice. Ivy knew eavesdropping wasn’t cool, but
instinctively, she pulled Laura to the corner and stood close to the wall.
Laura was puzzled.
There was no need to stick to the wall at this corner; nobody could see them from the other side. The
young lady seemed to be watching too many spy movies lately!
“A little change of plans happened on my part,” the Annoying Aunt whispered, sounding quite
displeased. “A pesky brat showed up and got tangled up with Wayne.”
Pesky brat?
Ivy wrinkled her nose. She wondered if the woman was talking about her.
“Now she’s clinging to Wayne, insisting on having lunch with him!” Annoying Aunt continued. “In a bit,
I’ll pretend to feel unwell and ask him to take me home. No matter what, he must come home with me
tonight!”

tremendous secret.
“Now that he’s so fond of kids, if this plan succeeds, I’ll be able to trap him with a child…” Annoying
Aunt’s voice trailed off as she walked away.
Ivy’s little heart raced.
Is she going to do something bad to the painting buyer?” Laura asked Ivy.
Ivy nodded solemnly: “She really is an annoying, evil aunt!”
“Lady, what should we do now? Should we tell that gentleman?” Laura thought to herself that she must
pray religiously when she got home Why did all kinds of weird incidents seem to happen to her lately?
“The man likes her, grown–ups trust the ones they like more,” Ivy said gravely.
Laura was shocked,“!!!”
Such an great point why didn’t she think of that!

“What should we do, then?” Laura inquired.
Ivy looked at her. “Laura, I’m sorry.”
Laura was confused, “???” xo.com fast update
What was that for?
“Ivy loves you, and I don’t want to hurt you, but the situation is extremely urgent now!” Ivy declared.
Laura felt goosebumps. Not good – it seemed like something terrible was about to happen!
“During the New Year, you slipped and accidentally kicked Ivy into the pool. Ivy almost drowned…”
Laura was frightened.
“Almost drowned” was an exaggeration. She had quickly jumped into the pool and pulled Ivy out. Ivy
hadn’t even had time to react! “What do you think Grandma would say if she knew about this?” Ivy
posed the question.
Laura couldn’t even imagine it.
“Lady, what on earth are you planning to do?” she asked tearfully.
Determination filled Ivy’s gorgeous eyes, “Handsome Mister is a good person, helping the children build
schools. Ivy can’t let Annoying Aunt tie him down! Ivy has to take him away!”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmLaura was speechless, thinking, “Someone, please save me!!!”
With great valor, Ivy strode forth.
With her soul lost, Laura followed her weakly.
“Mister!”
As she approached Wayne, she noticed a strange man speaking to him, attempting to hand him a
business card.
Annoying Aunt hadn’t returned yet!
Ivy thought, now was her chance she had to take him away!
“Oh my isn’t this our little painter?” The strange man sported a wide smile. “So you’re President
Silverman’s child‘ No wonder you’re so
clever
He’d apparently mistaken Ivy for Silverman’s child.
“Hello, sir. Thank you for the compliment. Goodbye, sir. Ivy and President Silverman are off to lunch
now!”
Before the strange man could react, Ivy grabbed Wayne’s hand and dragged him in the direction of the
exit.
