Chapter 388: Chapter 387
"What do you mean, are you saying I’m not handsome? Harry, you’d better think twice before speaking. If you stay silent, your year-end bonus will be deducted."
Harry: "..."
How is it that these days, even silence is a mistake?
This is not how you mess with people.
He hurriedly said, "President, you have to believe me. When you were young, you were quite the heartthrob. But now, you’re the standout among the handsome and eligible bachelors; no one can surpass you."
"Even President Wiles, Madam’s brother, is not as handsome as you are. Your chiseled and handsome face will undoubtedly make Madam fall head over heels for you."
"And as for the greasiness issue, it has nothing to do with you. Were you provoked? How can you doubt yourself like this?"
Edwin Blake was quite pleased with Harry’s flattering words.
"Alright, I believe what you said is true, so I’ll trust you for now."
Edwin finished speaking and wanted to call Ivy River.
But as soon as it rang once, it said the number you are calling is currently on another call.
This is a joke.
He’s still on Ivy River’s blacklist...
Seeing this, Harry immediately offered his phone, "President, Madam might be abroad and have a poor signal. Try using mine."
Edwin took the phone and made the call without another word.
Harry thought, he’s so arrogant even when he’s blacklisted; the day Madam punishes you is coming.
You’ll certainly suffer.
Not long after, Edwin’s angry roar erupted from inside the car.
"Ivy River, I’m just concerned about you. Don’t be ungrateful. If you keep this up, I will truly be angry!"
"Are you crazy? Just wait until I get over there, just wait for me!"
Edwin looked at the disconnected call and continued to shout, "Ivy River, you’ll regret it later. I’ll make sure you can’t have me!"
Harry rushed forward to quickly take the phone away, afraid Edwin would accidentally break it.
"President, calm down, calm down. What you need to do now is rest well on the plane, and when you arrive, talk nicely with Madam."
Edwin was quite upset, "Harry, do you think I’ve treated Ivy River poorly? Wasn’t it me who arranged her job at the Medical University?"
"And as for her father, my former father-in-law, I gave him a pretty good birthday gift, didn’t I? These things, I didn’t even let Grandma have them. Why is Ivy River treating me this way?"
Harry nodded repeatedly, "Yes, yes, President, you’re absolutely right. So now I want to ask, how do you plan to get Madam back?"
"I’m not going after her anymore. I’m planning to wait for Ivy River to come back to me; I’m already angry."
Harry could only coax, "President, you’re magnanimous. We still need to get Madam back, right? Think about the two little ones, isn’t that right?"
"Hmph, I only talk to Ivy River because of the kids; otherwise, I wouldn’t bother with her!"
When Edwin was being stubborn, the car arrived at the airport.
After boarding the plane, they flew directly to Washington.
...
The next day.
"No! Don’t go, Mom..."
Ivy River woke up from her dream, sitting on the bed, wiping tears from the corner of her eyes, and began to ponder deeply.
The dream she had was really strange.
Just in the back hills of Washington, there was a cemetery, a gathering place for the wealthy and powerful.
There were mountains and water, and the environment was excellent.
It led to the scarcity of cemetery plots, and only the rich and powerful could be buried there.
But, why did she dream of such a scene?
Could it be that the person who asked her for medical help yesterday mentioned the back hills cemetery, and that’s why she dreamed of her mother whom she had never met?
But she’s never seen her.
The woman in the dream was very kind and gentle.
She was beautiful, and Ivy’s appearance was just a spitting image of hers.
She gently called Ivy her daughter and even hugged her.
Throughout the years, apart from Jonah Wiles holding her, she had never been hugged by another woman.
Even her mentor’s wife hadn’t hugged her; she had tried before, but because of a natural reflex, Ivy avoided it.
After that, her mentor’s wife never attempted to hug her again.
"Could it be that the woman I dreamed of was really my mother?"
Ivy sat on the bed, unable to stop muttering to herself, "So beautiful, no wonder my mother passed away, she didn’t abandon me."
Bang bang bang——
Suddenly, there was a violent knocking at the door.
Nora Goldsmith looked over and saw no one at the door.
"Noah, Boss, are you guys awake? If you’re up, can you check who it is at the door?"
Noah had already been woken up but was unwilling to get out of bed.
Nora knocked on Ivy’s door.
When she heard to come in, she immediately entered, "Boss, who is it? Could it be the takeout you ordered?"
Ivy was still in a melancholic mood, and upon hearing this, her mind was full of question marks.
She said helplessly, "Nora, are you nuts? This is abroad, not domestic. Ordering takeout takes at least two hours to deliver!"
"Yes, I know, but who’s at the door? Should I have you two hide while I check it out?"
Nora inquired about Ivy’s preference.
Ivy nodded, "Go have a look. I’m going to nap a bit; it must be someone from the property management department, right?"
"With such impatient knocking, these foreigners don’t want to live anymore!"
Nora grumbled as she headed toward the door, "When I open the door, I must see who it is! If it’s a scumbag, I’ll curse them as soon as I open my mouth! It’s infuriating."
After speaking, the knock on the door came again.
Nora yelled angrily, "Who is it, who is it, I have to see who it is, being so bothersome!"
The door was directly opened by Nora, and she angrily glared at the person at the door.
"Hi—Miss Goldsmith, hello, I’m Harry Ross."
Harry waved and greeted with a smile.
Nora was stunned, and Edwin Blake, who stood behind, pushed Harry aside and entered the room, "Where’s Ivy? Isn’t she awake?"
Nora shouted angrily, "Who are you, why are you entering my house without permission from the owner, get out!"
Ignoring her, Edwin sat in the living room.
Nora, suddenly realizing what’s happening, spit at Edwin in rage.
"Get out, you’re not welcome here!"
Harry grinned as he calmed Nora’s anger, "Miss Goldsmith, Miss Goldsmith, take it easy, take it easy, our president is here to discuss something with our Madam."
"Pfft, what Madam, my sister has already divorced that scumbag, can you stop taking advantage of us?"
The more Nora spoke, the angrier she became, and she went forward, wanting to drag Edwin to the door.
But before her fingers could touch Edwin, she paused for a moment.
Then got up, took a napkin, and disgustedly pinched Edwin’s jacket corner, "Please, get out."
Edwin: "..."
Is it that bad?
Being so disdainful towards him?
Just as he was about to speak, Nora continued, "You with such looks, I can’t even imagine how my sister ever saw in you. True love is indeed unbeatable."
