Chapter 390: Chapter 389

When Edwin Blake heard this, he felt a pang of bitterness.

I’m the biological one, okay? Ivy River is the outsider!

"I’m not leaving, I’m not leaving. Don’t worry, everything’s fine, right?"

Ivy River flipped the phone camera around and handed it to Nora Goldsmith.

Nora instantly understood, circled Ivy River with the camera, and said, "Grandma, don’t worry. My sister is fine. As long as she doesn’t cause trouble for others, it’s all good."

"Causing trouble is fine, as long as Ivy’s okay. No matter how big the trouble, the Blake Clan Group can handle it. If not, the Wiles Clan Group can join in as practice."

The Old Lady Blake was very protective, "Edwin Blake can leave, but you absolutely cannot. Be good and listen to grandma."

"Alright, I’ll listen to you. I won’t leave. Once I’m done here, I’ll return home. It should be after nine at night there, right? Hurry and rest, don’t stay up late."

Ivy River checked the time, frowning as she instructed.

"Grandma is worried about you. Since you’re overseas and not in the country, travelling such long distances is really hard for grandma."

"Otherwise, grandma would definitely fly over to see you. It’s not that grandma doesn’t want to visit, it’s just that the distance is a problem, so I sent that brat over."

The Old Lady Blake finally got to the point.

"So you sent Edwin Blake over? Grandma, I’m perfectly fine, no need to worry. No need to send your grandson over again, it’s too much for me."

After saying this, Ivy River gave Edwin Blake a cold glance.

Then, she complained directly, "It doesn’t even seem like he’s here to visit a patient. Grandma, I think we shouldn’t trouble President Blake more, better let him go back."

"No, no, however long you’re there is how long he’ll be there too. It’s not often he goes there, let him stay properly."

The Old Lady Blake immediately said, "Edwin Blake, get over here, Ivy, tell him to come and speak to me."

"Edwin Blake, grandma wants you to get over here."

Ivy acted as a cold messenger.

Edwin Blake stood up, glancing at Nora Goldsmith and Harry Ross in the room.

Harry Ross had good instincts, quickly moving aside.

Nora Goldsmith not only didn’t move away, but actually leaned closer to the phone.

Ivy River just laughed, "Grandma, your grandson doesn’t want to come. I think maybe we should forget it, let’s not provoke him, after all, he’s President Blake."

"The nerve, how dare he! I’ll call him right now—no, put it on speaker!"

After the Old Lady Blake scolded him, Ivy River obediently turned on the speaker.

"Alright, grandma, I put it on speaker, you can raise your voice now."

In the next second,

The Old Lady Blake’s angry voice came through:

"Edwin Blake, you better behave and do what Ivy tells you for the next few days. Don’t provoke her!"

"Also, don’t create any trouble. Just listen to whatever Ivy says, like it’s my order. Treat her like you would treat me."

"Speak up, why are you silent? Who are you showing that dead expression to?"

Edwin Blake walked over helplessly, "Grandma, it’s not that I don’t want to talk, it’s just that you were talking so much that I couldn’t get a word in."

"You brat, don’t make excuses. Did you listen to what I just said?"

"I listened, don’t worry. For these few days, if your granddaughter tells me to go east, I won’t dare go west, I’ll behave."

When Edwin Blake said this, it was as if he had lost his energy, lifeless.

"Hmm, that’s the way it should be. Don’t forget what you promised me."

As the Old Lady said this, she warned again, "Treat Ivy as if she were me, got it? Don’t show impatience. I think you need to be clear about your own position now."

"I will, grandma. I’m very aware of my current status."

Only after Edwin Blake repeatedly assured her did the Old Lady continue:

"Alright, I don’t want to talk to you anymore. Ivy, let me say a few words to Ivy and then I’ll hang up."

Edwin Blake handed the phone directly to Ivy River.

The Old Lady smiled broadly when she saw Ivy River’s face.

The initial seriousness was completely gone.

"Ivy, I know what you’re like. Don’t treat Edwin Blake as an outsider. Whatever you want to eat there, tell him to buy it."

"He’s just a driver, and Harry Ross is there too, so don’t worry about him getting tired. Men need to be used; if not, they won’t behave."

Ivy River replied with a few words, "Alright, grandma, it’s been half an hour. You should go rest now, no need to worry."

"Okay, I’ll go now. Seeing you’re alright is all I needed. Now I’m at ease, off to sleep."

"Okay, go ahead, grandma. Goodnight."

After ending the call, Ivy River tossed the phone to Harry Ross.

"Alright, there’s nothing now, right? You can go, I’ve sorted things with grandma. Do you have anything else?"

Harry Ross was dumbfounded, "Madam, is there nothing you need us to do?"

"No, I have my hands and feet, no need for you or President Blake to do anything for me. I can’t afford it."

Ivy River decisively refused and opened the door, "Alright, can you leave my house now?"

Harry Ross was in a bind, "Madam..."

"What other excuse do you have? Grandma’s seen me, the kids have seen me. Let me hear what else you have to say."

Harry Ross was silent.

Edwin Blake spoke coldly, "Ivy River, so if there’s nothing, I’m not allowed to come see you?"

"Why are you looking for me?"

Ivy River looked at Edwin Blake as if he were an idiot.

"Whatever you’re working on today, I’ll go with you. Grandma doesn’t trust you being abroad alone, she wants me to protect you."

Edwin Blake decided not to argue with Ivy River.

He simply used the Old Lady Blake as a trump card.

Ivy River outright refused, "No need. You might not know the area as well as I do here, you might not be as effective as me."

"If you have nothing to do, go to the neighboring state and see your girlfriend’s past escapades. It’s not far, should be just over an hour by plane."

Hearing Ivy River touch on a sore spot, Edwin Blake was immediately enraged.

"Ivy River, can’t you speak nicely? That’s all in the past, why would I go see it again?"

"I don’t know, maybe you have a peculiar hobby of not giving up even when you’re on the brink?"

Upon hearing this, Edwin Blake replied directly, "Rest assured, I’m also running a company. Some things aren’t because I don’t know, but because I don’t bother to expose them."

Ivy River shook her head, looking at Edwin Blake with a playful expression.

Edwin Blake said, "I knew part of the truth before, but the rest Harry hasn’t completely investigated yet. I also considered that she’s a woman and it’s not easy for her, so..."

"So you knew all along but never gave up, always condoning your woman to make mistakes, right?"
