Chapter 150: Chapter 150: Let You Die Right Now
Ivy River nodded, "Thank you for the compliment, President Blake."
Edwin Blake said nothing further, trembling with anger.
He simply closed his eyes and pretended to nap.
Even Lewis Chadwick, who had heard about Ivy River’s defiant confrontations with Edwin Blake, couldn’t help but shiver when witnessing the real-life version.
He couldn’t help but sigh in his heart.
It must be Ivy River.
Who else here would dare to question Edwin Blake?
Probably only her, and she can leave Edwin Blake speechless with anger.
Impressive!
Thinking this, Lewis Chadwick decided to seize the opportunity. He sternly addressed Evelyn King, "Apologize to President Blake as well. You nearly messed up a critical situation just now. This was a matter of life and death!"
Edwin Blake gave a cool glance at Ivy River, "No need, I’ve got a tough life. Ivy River can still save me."
Evelyn King was taken aback; clearly, Edwin Blake’s words were mocking her.
But she quickly realized that keeping her job was the most important thing now.
She immediately lowered her head in apology, "I’m sorry, President Blake, I truly know I was wrong."
Seeing this, Lewis Chadwick wanted to smooth things over, "If you acknowledge your mistake, hurry up and leave. Go home and reflect well, and bring back a report after a three-month suspension!"
"Alright, alright, I know I was wrong."
Evelyn King breathed a sigh of relief and had just reached the door.
When she heard Ivy River’s voice, not too loud or too soft, say, "Hold on."
Evelyn King’s steps halted, cold sweat pouring down.
She turned stiffly, "Is there anything else?"
Ivy River’s eyes carried hostility, "The compensation hasn’t been settled yet. What’s the rush to leave? Do you want me to go to the hospital tomorrow to collect the debt?"
Evelyn King: ...
She muttered softly, "I’m just visiting a colleague."
"You’ve said all the nice things, so what should I say?" Ivy River said with a smile, walking up to her.
Evelyn King was at a loss for what to do.
A hundred thousand is half a year’s salary for her.
Her whole family relies on this money.
Giving it would mean they would all struggle financially.
She whispered, "Why must it be like this? Aren’t we colleagues?"
"One hundred thousand dollars, how would you like to pay? Alipay or WeChat? If there’s not enough cash, you can use a credit card." Ivy River said with a cheeky smile.
At this moment, Lewis Chadwick stepped in to mediate, "Among colleagues, there’s mutual assistance, don’t take it to heart, Evelyn has no ill intentions."
"I know," Ivy River’s voice was calm, "but this money must be given. There’s responsibility for debts, are you planning to default?"
Evelyn King knew there was no getting out of paying today.
Lewis Chadwick was about to speak.
"Or is Director Chadwick so keen on talent that you’re going to pay this hundred thousand for Evelyn King?"
Ivy River said with a smile, but her eyes were cold.
"That’s... unnecessary, right?"
Lewis Chadwick wasn’t lacking this amount of money, but money should be spent wisely.
"I think it’s necessary. If not, then..." Ivy River said leisurely.
Lewis Chadwick was shocked, he immediately said, "Will pay, definitely pay. I’ll advance it for you, and you can pay me back slowly!"
Ivy River nodded in satisfaction.
"Transfer a hundred thousand to my card, thank you."
Evelyn King bit her lip, pitifully said, "Director Chadwick, you know my family situation, I can’t afford that much money."
"Make your useless husband go out and work!" Lewis Chadwick said irritably, "If you keep pushing it, I won’t advance the money! After years of working, you can’t even save a hundred thousand! What can you do!"
"Isn’t this the plight of a worker?" Evelyn King retorted.
Lewis Chadwick was furious, "Leave, get out quickly!"
Evelyn King knew if she kept talking, Ivy River might change her mind.
She immediately headed for the door.
"Did I say you could leave?"
Edwin Blake’s voice sounded.
"What else do you want! I’ve already paid a hundred thousand. You capitalists want more!"
Evelyn King was already unhappy about losing a hundred thousand, feeling even more displeased.
Now Edwin Blake was pushing her over the edge.
Suddenly her emotional defenses collapsed.
Evelyn King burst into tears.
Ivy River couldn’t bear to hear people cry. She frowned and said, "Edwin Blake hasn’t said what he wants to do, so don’t cry yet."
Evelyn King sobbed, "President Blake surely wants me to resign, which is adding insult to injury! I’ve owed the hospital a hundred thousand and now they’re firing me, boohoo..."
She cried till she was incoherent.
Ivy River turned her head to stare at Edwin Blake, "What do you want?"
Edwin Blake immediately responded, "I almost lost my life, can’t I demand an explanation?"
Lewis Chadwick hurriedly said, "Of course, of course!"
"Fire her, and I don’t want to see her at Medical University. Otherwise, I’ll stop the investment."
Edwin Blake spoke unreservedly.
Lewis Chadwick was put in a difficult position, hesitating to speak.
Ivy River lazily said, "Don’t fire her. A three-month suspension is enough."
"Fire her!"
Ivy River raised her eyes to look at Edwin Blake, her gaze icy, "No firing."
The atmosphere instantly became awkward.
No one dared to speak.
The most surprised was Evelyn King; she never expected Ivy River to stand up for her at this moment.
Edwin Blake’s brow furrowed, "Ivy River, do you have to oppose me?"
Ivy River let out a cold laugh, "It’s my life that saved you, so now I call the shots."
Edwin Blake frowned upon hearing this, "I don’t want to argue with you. Lewis Chadwick, are you firing her or not?"
"Well..."
Lewis Chadwick didn’t know what to do.
He instinctively looked to Ivy River.
Ivy River smiled a bit, "Edwin Blake, Evelyn King already knows her mistake, and she interrupted me, not you. You’re just a half-dead person lying in bed, what do you know?"
"What if she really delayed my treatment?" Edwin Blake questioned.
Ivy River nonchalantly replied, "Aren’t you alive now, healthy and kicking, not dead at all."
Everyone was shocked.
Was Ivy River fearless?
Daring to talk to Edwin Blake like this, such bold words!
Edwin Blake’s gaze darkened, and he instructed Harry Ross, "Suspend all investments to the Central Science Institute, and spread the word. Let’s see who dares to invest in the Central Science Institute after this!"
"Harry Ross, tell your president that if anything happens to his health later, don’t come looking for me."
Ivy River immediately countered.
Edwin Blake pressured, "Harry Ross, if Ivy River doesn’t want her child, let her continue acting out."
Ivy River said, "Tell Edwin Blake, he won’t live long, and if I don’t continue treating him, he’ll surely die within a month."
Edwin Blake rose directly and walked to Ivy River, saying word by word, "Harry Ross, tell Ivy River, words have consequences!"
"Harry Ross, return and say, it’s fine, it’s fine. If he’s still alive in a month, I can help him along." Ivy River said with a cheerful tone.
Harry Ross looked troubled.
These two had started their little childish game again.
Very boring...
Edwin Blake’s face darkened, "Ivy River, if we pursue this seriously, do you believe I can make sure you never see your child again?"
Ivy River smiled, meeting his gaze, "Edwin Blake, do you believe I can make you die right now?"
