The Billionaire Ex-Wife Stormed Back as a Marvelous Divine Doctor -

Chapter 238: Chapter 237: Life in Danger
These words are unbearable to hear.
Really unbearable.
Listening further might pose a safety risk.
President Blake seems celibate on the surface, but how come he’s like this when pursuing his wife in private?
Isabella Yeaton thought, touching her burning ear, unable to stop shivering.
Ivy River’s angry voice came through the glass door, "Edwin Blake, get out immediately, my office does not welcome you."
"It’s my turn next; you should be treating me now, Doctor River."
Edwin Blake spoke calmly and unhurriedly.
Ivy River took a deep breath and put down what she was doing, "Come on, sit down. I’ll treat you now."
"Aren’t you busy? It’s fine, I can wait."
Ivy River gave him a resentful look, "Give me your hand, I’ll treat you first. Why do you always have so much going on?"
Edwin Blake wasn’t moved at all, speaking faintly.
"You’re busy, and I’m worried it’ll affect your important tasks later. If you go home and tattle to Grandma..."
Hearing him mention Grandma.
Ivy River directly asked, "How is Grandma’s health lately?"
Edwin Blake replied, "Don’t you want to see her yourself?"
Asking was pointless.
At this moment, Ivy River’s computer made a ding sound.
She glanced at it and said directly, "Wait here for a moment while I handle something."
Edwin Blake nodded and stared straight at Ivy River as she replied to the message.
The message from Grace Foster said there were issues with the shape of the kindergarten uniforms.
The cost of making molds is quite high.
They wanted to reuse the molds and sell them in the market later.
Ivy River understood this well.
She thought for a moment and directly called Grace Foster.
"Edwin Blake, can you wait outside for a moment? I need to make a call."
Edwin Blake shook his head, "I won’t say a word. Don’t you trust me?"
"I don’t trust you at all."
As Ivy spoke, the phone connected.
"Hey boss, what do you need?"
"Give me two minutes; I’ll talk to you outside."
Ivy River interrupted and got up to walk to the door, turning back to instruct, "Stay here. If you’re not here when I get back, I’ll consider it a terminated number."
"Okay, you go ahead."
Edwin Blake had no intention of following her; he knew Ivy River had secrets.
But secrets have to be uncovered layer by layer to be interesting. Rushing it might lead to unwanted consequences.
Ivy River walked to the stairwell, "I’m at the hospital now. Long story short, after the molds are made, we can use them to customize a series of parent-child outfits."
Grace Foster exclaimed in surprise, "Boss, how did you suddenly get so insightful!"
"It’s not insight; it’s just that the cost of making molds is really high. We haven’t done children’s wear before, and starting a new mold out of the blue is pretty painful."
Ivy River said with a pout.
Grace Foster agreed, "Yes, it’s really painful. Actually, I didn’t expect you to make uniforms, no, to be precise, class uniforms. Is it worth it to make children’s wear for just a few dozen sets?"
"I’ve already said it, so not doing it would be inappropriate."
Grace Foster pondered for a moment and hesitantly said, "How about we release the design drawings and find a collaborator? It’s just a few dozen sets. We could sign a confidentiality agreement, right?"
"No, Eve’s products can’t be outsourced. Don’t worry about the money this time. The principal will cover half of it."
"What? The principal has so much money! Does she know the cost of our clothes?" Grace Foster asked curiously.
Ivy River smiled, "I don’t think she knows. The mold cost is small, but the clothing cost is significant. Anyway, she agreed, and if she doesn’t pay up, I won’t enroll her three kids."
Grace Foster was stunned for a moment, "Alright, then I’ll start preparing. Are you designing the clothes yourself, or should I find a designer to draw them according to your ideas?"
"I’ll do it myself. I don’t have much to do lately, pretty relaxed."
"Okay, then get me the design drawings as soon as possible. I’ll start the mold this afternoon." Grace Foster added reluctantly, "But I still feel the need to say, the molds are cheap, but we need to introduce a new machine..."
Ivy River replied, "I know, let’s import it, and use that German company’s machine. I’ll give you the design drawings tomorrow. I have a day off and can work on them at home."
Grace Foster closed her eyes and agreed, "Alright, I got it. Anything else?"
"No, I’m going back to see my patient. Thanks for your hard work."
With that, Ivy River hung up the phone.
Looking at the darkened screen, Grace Foster thought angrily.
She shouldn’t feel sorry for the boss.
The boss doesn’t care about money and is willing to spend a fortune for the children.
Why should she feel sorry? The money saved wouldn’t even be shared with her.
Ivy River returned to her office.
Edwin Blake was indeed still seated, but there was an extra laptop on her desk.
"You’re back?"
Ivy River frowned without speaking.
Edwin Blake glanced at her and spoke to the laptop, "That’s all for today. We’ll continue the rest of the meeting in person at the office."
A group of executives quickly said goodbye.
The most prominent line was, "Goodbye President, goodbye Madam!"
Ivy River: "..."
Before she could speak, Edwin Blake closed the laptop and smiled, "Doctor River, can you treat me now?"
Ivy River sanitized her hands and sat down, "Give me your hand."
Edwin Blake obediently extended his hand for Ivy River to take his pulse.
After a moment, Ivy River opened her eyes and looked at Edwin Blake’s handsome face, hesitating, "Edwin Blake, you..."
"What’s wrong with me? Too handsome for you to handle?"
Ivy River was speechless and responded brusquely, "The toxin in your body is becoming uncontrollable. Do you have any plans to go abroad soon?"
Edwin Blake replied nonchalantly, "Do you want me to have plans to go abroad?"
"What does it have to do with me? If you have plans to go abroad, I’ll try to extend your life."
"What if I don’t go abroad?" Edwin Blake asked back.
Ivy River thought for a moment, "If you don’t go abroad, we’ll start treatment soon. But President Blake, you’re extremely busy. I’m worried treatment might affect your work, and I would become the culprit for your financial losses."
"It won’t affect anything," Edwin Blake didn’t seem concerned at all.
"Alright, then we’ll start the day after tomorrow. You’ll come for three days of acupuncture, about an hour each session, in the afternoon. I’ll clear my schedule for you," Ivy River said seriously.
Edwin Blake was stunned, "Three consecutive days of acupuncture? Haven’t I been treated before?"
"Yes, but I asked you to have a full check-up, didn’t I? Did you do it? Or did you only do part of it? You have a chronic toxin in your body, and it’s not easy to deal with," Ivy River said sternly, "Before, I told you to quit smoking and drinking to see if it helped control the toxin, but you didn’t listen. So all the medicine you took was in vain."
These words.
Edwin Blake was shocked, "Are you serious?"
Ivy River immediately gave him a glare, "Edwin Blake, if it weren’t for the kids, do you think I’d still treat you?"
On hearing this, Edwin Blake was completely stunned.
