The Billionaire's Regret

Chapter 11

Seeing Ivy makes Piper roar in rage because of what happened to the necklace. Her reputation was ruined, and as soon as she returned to New York, some looked at her in disgust. And how could Ivy do that to her? They give them shelter and the like. Her brother gave her money, yet she dared to set her on fire? Piper wanted to rip Ivy’s face. She shot a glare at her as she gritted her teeth. She roamed her eyes to Ivy from head to toe. Afterward, she looked for the manager of the restaurant. When the manager heard the call, she rushed towards them. The manager was aware that all the restaurant’s customers would need to book in advance for vacancies. However, he still apologizes to Piper. “I am sorry, Miss Reed,” she said. Piper glared at the manager coldly, and then she diverted her gaze to Ivy. At that moment, Piper wanted to slap Ivy to release her anger. However, there were many people inside. Instead, she said, “throw her out of the restaurant. She’s an eyesore!” she exclaimed as she turned to the manager. “We’re your VIP customers here,” she added. The manager then looked back in surprise at Cooper and stared at Cooper’s cold eyes and at the lady next to him, which is Ivy. Ivy was wearing a light smile. It was bright and noble. Her curly hair was draped behind the ears, and her lustrous eyes of her and facial features were alluring. Her seem was not affected by Piper’s rage at all. The manager then walked closer to Cooper and respectfully bent down to greet them. “Good day, Mr. Morgan. Pardon me about this,” she lifted her face to meet Cooper’s eyes, “your place is ready,” she added. This made Piper’s face darken, and she glared at Cooper. Then turned to the manager. “What did I tell you? Didn’t you hear me?!” she shouted. “I said, I want them out of—” she didn’t finish her words when Eva spoke. “You still have the guts to creep a grin in your lips, huh?” Eva uttered. “And how could a lowly person and a useless one whom the Reed family get rid of, do in a place like this?” she added. Cooper, who’s getting pestered with the behavior of the Reeds, stepped forward and sneered,

imposing, “When did the Reed degrade people? And your ability to reverse the situation against Ivy was indeed impressive,” he uttered, anger started to light his eyes. “And what kind of life did Ivy have in the Reed family for the past three years?” Cooper’s words made Eva stunned and angered her more. Eva looked at the manager. “What are you still doing? Get them out of—” The manager stood firm and professionally spoke with Eva. “Mrs. Reed, Ms. Reed, Mr. Cooper Morgan is always the majority shareholder of our restaurant. If you don’t want to see them, the door is there,” the manager gestured the door gracefully, “you can leave now,” she added. Eva and Piper were surprised, and it seemed like they were frosted from where they were standing. Ivy sighed and looked at Cooper. “You go ahead. I still have something to say to them,” she said. The concern was written into Cooper’s face all of a sudden, but Ivy smiled at him. Cooper sighed. Well, he knew that his sister was not like her old self so, at least, he’ll be at ease. “Lead the way,” Cooper said to the manager, and they left, which surprised the Reeds how Ivy talked to the well-known tycoon, Cooper Morgan. Piper scoffed when Cooper and the manager had already left. “Ivy,” she locked her gaze on Ivy, “you’re still that lowly person that we know even how high you climb to raise your status in life. And that doesn’t change the fact that my brother doesn’t love you and just uses you, and I can make you vanish in this city in just a blink of an eye,” Piper threatened. Ivy frowned slightly. “Is that what you want to do?” she asked. Piper held her chin up. “If you’re going to apologize to me—well, you always do this, right? You will pour a glass of wine and give it to us as a sign of your defeat. And you always apologize to the extent that you’re going to kiss my foot, right? So, do it now, and I will let you go,” she said and crossed her arms as she waited for Ivy to bow her head and apologize. Ivy smiled and walked forward and quietly grabbed the bottle of wine into the empty glass and handed it over to Piper. Piper brushed her lips snidely, and before her hand touched the cup, she felt a shiver on the top of her head when Ivy poured the wine into it. The wine then dripped down to her face, and before she could scream, Ivy pushed her, and she fell on the couch. She was about to stand up when Ivy

forcefully pressed her shoulder, restraining her from standing. And then Ivy glanced at Eva. “Don’t you dare meddle with this,” she threatened, making the old woman’s eyes widen. Ivy bent towards Piper’s ear. “You should be aware that I was the one who proposed the divorce because I don’t want to be part of your family anymore, and if you dare to speak out again, I will let you know who will vanish in this city!” she whispered but shouted the last word as she let go of Piper.Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.
