Chapter 346: Chapter 345
Ivy River, maintaining a normal expression, said, "Such a chairman is really rare. How about you join us for a meal?"
"No, I have way too much to do today. It’s not just the chairman’s assignments, mainly I haven’t even finished my usual contracts, ugh!"
Grace Foster couldn’t take it anymore and let out a pained wail.
Not wanting to hear it, Ivy River immediately walked away.
"Well, you take your time then, I’m heading out, good luck!"
Charlotte Yeaton smiled and offered some comfort, quickly following after her.
In the restaurant.
After discussing some business, the conversation between Ivy River and Charlotte Yeaton took a strange turn.
"Do you have a partner?"
Charlotte Yeaton frowned and said, "Why should I? I don’t quite understand this. Is there supposed to be a necessary connection?"
"Not really, but don’t you want to date? Don’t you like sweet love?"
Ivy River started to gently persuade.
Charlotte Yeaton decisively refused, "No, I find men to be the most annoying and detestable creatures!"
"That’s because you’ve never dated, right? You’re a strong woman, so when you were young, you only focused on your studies, and after graduation, you came straight home to inherit the family business, so it’s normal you don’t get it."
Ivy River transformed into an emotional guru.
"You have to believe me, relationships are something you have to experience."
Charlotte Yeaton interrupted directly, "You mean I have to taste the bitterness of love, right? Why must I suffer? Aren’t you already suffering enough? How much more suffering could there be!"
Ivy River: "..."
You don’t reveal someone’s scars like that!
Why do you have to poke at the most painful spots? It’s so annoying.
"Not everyone’s relationships are that bitter. I’m telling you, some people do have sweet love affairs."
Ivy River couldn’t help but retort, "I just had bad luck with a jerk, but you might have sharp eyes, right?"
Charlotte Yeaton responded directly, "Just say it, who’s the person you’re trying to set me up with."
Ivy River hesitated for a moment, "How about my brother?"
Charlotte Yeaton was eating when she heard this and sprayed rice everywhere.
"No, you must be joking. Isn’t Gale Wiles... a no-marriage proponent? I thought he was..."
The latter part of her sentence was left unsaid, but Ivy River understood, "No, no, my brother isn’t gay. He’s just been single since birth. If you’re interested, I can introduce you two."
Charlotte Yeaton was taken aback and responded directly, "No, no need for an introduction. I’m not interested."
"Come on, I think you guys could at least chat a bit. Who knows, maybe you’ll spark some romance?"
Ivy River tirelessly promoted her brother, "Actually, my brother has some merits. You really won’t consider it?"
"No way, your brother and I aren’t compatible. You should find someone else to be your sister-in-law."
Charlotte Yeaton firmly rejected again.
"Actually, my brother just has a bit of a sharp tongue, that’s all. He’s proper in dealing with people, he..."
Before Ivy River could finish, Charlotte Yeaton cut her off:
"No need to introduce further, it’s okay. I know what your brother is like. There’s definitely something wrong with him, having never dated all these years."
Ivy River decided to change tactics, "Do you have anyone you like, or what kind of guy do you like? Could you tell me?"
"I don’t like guys."
When Charlotte Yeaton finished speaking, Ivy River’s mouth immediately dropped open, "No way, sis, you... can’t be. I think your sexual orientation is pretty normal..."
"You’re overthinking it. I’m just not interested in guys, but I’m straight. Do we have any other fun things to chat about? We don’t need to keep talking about boring men, do we?"
Charlotte Yeaton continued without waiting for a reply, "Or is it that you want to see me suffer the bitterness of love, so we can share grievances together later? It’s okay, speak up, as women, I won’t laugh at you."
Ivy River suddenly fell silent.
Charlotte Yeaton went on, "Women shouldn’t make things hard for other women, but women can help share the burdens. At that time, we can bash jerks together. Actually, I quite enjoy bashing jerks sometimes. Go ahead, say it!"
Seeing her eager look, Ivy River didn’t know what to do.
After a moment of thought, she decided to tell the truth, "Actually, I want to tell you something. Currently, I’m not suffering, nor do I have grievances, but Edwin Blake might have something to say..."
"Huh? Didn’t you run away after getting pregnant? You’re back with the Blake Family now without the kid? Isn’t there love and hatred between you?"
Charlotte Yeaton was now fully indulging in her gossiping nature.
"When I left back then, I didn’t know I was pregnant. If I had known, Edwin Blake definitely wouldn’t have let me go... Also, he wants the child, but I should be the one to give it, right? I gave birth, why should I give the child away?"
Ivy River began to explain, inwardly cursing Gale Wiles.
She was simply risking it all for her brother’s happiness!
Completely self-sacrificing.
Such a selfless act!
"You’re right, what you’re saying makes sense. Isn’t Edwin Blake causing any trouble, like wanting to give the child a complete family?"
Charlotte Yeaton was now like a nagging interrogator with endless questions.
Ivy River was finding it exhausting to handle.
"Why does the child need a complete family? Is having a father important? Is it important? No, it’s not! They’ve always thought they didn’t have a father, and now a dumb father suddenly appears, the kids are confused too."
"And additionally, the child doesn’t want to go home, so there’s no way Edwin Blake can win custody against me."
Charlotte Yeaton insisted on debating, "You said Edwin Blake is at least the only heir to the Blake Family. Now that you’ve had the child, doesn’t Old Lady Blake want the child? Isn’t she pressuring you?"
"What’s there to pressure? If Edwin Blake has the ability, he should hurry and have another child with Isla Sutton. If he doesn’t have that ability, then don’t touch my child."
Ivy River continued, "Oh, and about Grandma Blake, she won’t fight for my child because she knows very well what her grandson is like."
"It’s rumored that Old Lady Blake doesn’t like the woman Edwin chose. Is that true?"
Charlotte Yeaton continued her gossiping inquisition.
"She probably doesn’t like her. Grandma likes me more than Edwin. So that’s one of the reasons she’s not fighting for the child. Also, she feels the child is better off with their mom."
While saying this, Ivy River shifted the conversation, "You’ve asked me so many questions. Now, can I ask you a question? Would you consider my brother? After all, he’s the CEO of the Wiles Clan Group!"
"This..."
Charlotte Yeaton realized she had asked a lot, and now it was awkward to simply refuse.
Ivy River pressed her advantage, "What’s wrong with Gale Wiles? He’s also a diamond bachelor in the eyes of the world, you know, you two would actually make a good pair. I mean, I know my man isn’t good enough for you."
Charlotte Yeaton nodded, getting ready to listen to Ivy River’s nonsense further.
"But, you know, my brother has never dated anyone! So even if you’re really going to find a man, he should be your first choice. At least he’s not a playboy, and... this proves he’s really quite pure-hearted."
"So?"
Ivy River shamelessly continued to praise, "So if you really have to choose someone, please choose my inexperienced brother!"
"Alright, when I’m ready to look, I’ll definitely consider Gale Wiles first."
Hearing this, Ivy River’s eyes lit up.
