Chapter 73
When Ken learned of this, he thought it incredible that Don Reed had treated his ex-daughter-in-law in such a brutal and disgusting manner. Ken, too, began to sympathize with Ivy. Wyatt Reed was deafeningly quiet for a long time, making the office’s silence unpleasant. Suddenly, Wyatt went out with a sad countenance, kicking away the chair and taking his jacket. His car sped toward the Reed Mansion. When Wyatt saw the maid, “Where’s the Don?” he asked in a booming voice. The maid shook. “The Don visited Erstwhile Villa….” Wyatt turned around and walked away. “Sir, the Don stated he wouldn’t see you until the situation is resolved,” the maid raced after him. Wyatt came to a halt when he heard this. As he looked at the maid, his glance was harsh. “What exactly did you say?” The maid stepped back in dread, her face pale, and she didn’t dare to speak again. Wyatt gritted his teeth and returned to his car, where he took out his phone and dialed his grandfather’s number. The phone rang for a long time before someone answered it. “I knew you’d be on the hunt for me because of that woman. You’ve been kind enough not to touch her after all this time.” “I said I’ll handle this out.” Wyatt’s dark eyes were chilly and resentful. The surrounding air density was terrifyingly low. Don Reed let forth a soft laugh. His voice sounded quite old. “Can you solve this? She despises our family so badly, and you want her to go out of her way to return my pipe? It’s impossible!” “However, there’s no need to fling mud on her. What will she do in the future?” “Who gives a damn? I gave her the benefit of the doubt. She assumed she could just marry into the Morgan family and didn’t respect me at all. Huh! Now, I’ll give her a taste of my strength!” As he warned his grandson, Don Reed’s tone was menacing. “You’d better not become involved in this and keep away from this woman! You’re fortunate to have divorced her; otherwise, she’d undoubtedly dishonor our family sooner or later!”
After that, the old man hastily hung up the phone. Does that Ivy still believe she can marry into a wealthy family? In her dreams! I don’t think any wealthy family will entirely overlook Ivy’s awful and immoral background. Ivy’s name will never be cleared, no matter how long she waits, because the truth is difficult to differentiate from invented lies. Isn’t it only going to get more complicated with time? Don Reed pondered. Don Reed stood back and observed as the argument over Ivy’s character heated up, which he found very satisfying. It was already midday when he awoke. The butler made afternoon tea for him, who strolled down the hall and said, “Any news from that woman?” Because it had been a while, Don Reed assumed Ivy would have realized he was teaching her a lesson and should have taken the initiative to come over and apologize. Not only did Don Reed want the emerald pipe, but he also wanted Ivy to bow and apologize so she wouldn’t insult him again. For a brief while, the butler halted. “There isn’t any news.” Don Reed came to a halt and narrowed his gaze. “What? Nothing new?” “Yes, Sir. We did send some persons to mix in with the mass of reporters. They’ve been squatting outside her apartment all day, but she hasn’t left. She also did not provide any clarification on the internet. I contacted the media and key platforms, and they stated that she did not approach them on her own initiative. It’s as though she doesn’t care—” Don Reed sneered, “Doesn’t she give a damn? Why will she stay at home if she doesn’t care? I believe she is simply terrified. Let’s keep waiting a bit longer.” Once she realizes what she’s done, she’ll wet her pants in panic and come over to apologize! Don Reed maintained his cocky posture until the next day. “Did she contact me?” With a shake of his head, the butler expressed his displeasure. “No, Sir. She didn’t leave her flat as she did yesterday.” Don Reed cocked his brow slightly. “How about the Morgan Corporation? Is there any activity
there?” “The share price of Morgan Corporation has fallen somewhat, but there has been no other movement. Under Cooper Morgan’s leadership, their stock price has resumed a steady upward path.” “Hmph! Cooper Morgan is certainly capable. Regrettably, he has horrible taste in women. Leo Morgan will not allow such a woman to marry his son. I’m sure Cooper is preoccupied with the business and has given up on that woman. She’s out of options now.” Don Reed waited until the third day, and the butler gently nodded in answer. IVY REMAINED STILL, even though the internet was still bustling. Finally, the old man realized something was wrong and directed his butler to contact Ivy. Ivy and Sebastian were doing some internet shopping at home. The best way to de-stress was to indulge in shopping. Spending money made them feel great! The two siblings sat on the sofa next to Simba staring at the LCD wall, watching Animal Planet. Simba would exclaim in awe every time he saw a tiger or lion leaping on the plains and hop around Sebastian to practice what it had just seen. Its learning abilities were absolutely outstanding! Ivy’s phone began to ring. She picked up the phone with a faint frown. “Who exactly is it?” “Don Reed wants…” the other side responded. That old man. He was the mastermind behind everything, she thought. Ivy was pushed to the side by Sebastian. “Hurry! The live broadcast has now begun! Let’s go get it!” Ivy then hung up the phone without a second thought.Property belongs to Nôvel(D)r/ama.Org.
