Chapter 222: 203、The Goddess is pregnant

Her mind was filled with Michael Gordon’s words: he had registered his marriage with Ivy Aretha a month ago. It took her a while to digest this explosive news that she couldn’t accept.

After all, she had just mocked Ivy Aretha so sharply, and thought Michael Gordon had married Alya Larson, and that Ivy got involved with some random person and got pregnant but didn’t want the child.

She just wanted to get rid of one of Sophia Young’s allies; she never expected to offend the CEO’s wife and scold the CEO himself!

"Mr... Gordon..."

Lydia Summers wanted to plead for herself but was too scared to say anything coherently. She watched helplessly as Anna called the Human Resources Department and conveyed the CEO’s clear intentions.

"I’m sorry, Mr. Gordon. I know I was wrong. Please give me another chance..."

"You’re already an employee of Allure International with plenty of opportunities. There’s no need for me to give you another one. Insulting my wife and child right in front of me — and scolding me in the process — if I, Michael Gordon, can tolerate such employees, there’s no point running this company. I might as well quit and become a farmer!"

Michael Gordon’s anger was exceptionally intense when he said those words. Ivy Aretha saw his usually mesmerizing eyes now filled with unrestrained fury, exuding an undeniable aura of dominance, reminiscent of an ancient tyrant reborn. She wondered if Lydia Summers were not a woman, he might have thrown her out directly.

This man was truly enraged!

But Ivy was quite happy. This was the first time she had seen him so furious since they reunited, and it happened when she was being insulted. Well, it couldn’t really be called an insult, more like a dispute, as Lydia didn’t gain any advantage in their verbal sparring.

Even so, Ivy was still happy. Which woman doesn’t love to be rescued by her hero? Especially when the hero is so handsome and wealthy, her husband and the father of her child!

As a woman, her vanity was more than satisfied, and she felt elated!

Madeline once said the happiest thing for a woman is when her man declares to the world, "this is my woman, and whoever dares to touch her will regret being born!" At that time, she just laughed at Madeline for being so naive and indulging in her princess fantasies. Ivy never thought this day would come when it would happen to her!

Upon closer examination, Michael Gordon was indeed the epitome of a dominant CEO: wealthy, good-looking, assertive. Damn, she became the female lead in a romance novel who gets tormented by a CEO in bed!

Some parts of life were indeed cliched like those found in novels!

Everyone’s gaze was fixed on Ivy Aretha’s face, which was stunningly beautiful. The women were openly jealous, wishing they had known earlier that even an ordinary legal affairs employee could marry into such wealth and prestige if they were just beautiful. They would have undergone plastic surgery before coming to Allure International.

Men were openly heartbroken. They didn’t expect that the beautiful woman who was unencumbered by gossip and was seemingly unattainable like a celebrity could possibly be the CEO’s wife. Needless to say, the child she supposedly didn’t want was definitely the CEO’s!

"And, since you all know that Ivy Aretha is my wife now, some male colleagues better get those dirty thoughts out of their heads!"

As they were thinking about this, they heard Michael Gordon’s lazy voice continue with his veiled warning. The words spread through the crowd like a gentle breeze, each word striking like a bell in their ears, "I, Michael Gordon, am very generous and willing to give everything, but I’m very reluctant when it comes to my wife. I can’t stand others even looking at her!"

Ivy Aretha: "..."

What kind of warning was that? He was clearly provoking the envy of other women!

The crowd was silent. The men who were ogling Ivy’s hot body lowered their heads and dared not look up again. After all, they wanted to work at Allure International and earn high salaries!

Seeing that the crowd was silent and not saying a word, Michael Gordon couldn’t help but ask, "Has everyone got it?"

"Got it!" came the unanimous response in three words!

Suddenly, Ivy felt this man was quite childish when it came to being jealous of their colleagues. Even if they were given the courage, they wouldn’t dare to peep at the CEO’s wife!

Right when Ivy wanted to remind Michael Gordon to restrain himself and not turn into a tyrant, she noticed that Lina Miller, who had been standing beside her for a long time, didn’t seem right. She quickly reached out and held her, "Lina, are you okay?"

Lina shook her head, and a familiar figure emerged from the surrounding crowd and walked towards them...

Mario Jensen approached them with a poker face, his eyes landing on Ivy’s hand supporting Lina. His eyebrows furrowed, and he stepped over to indicate to Ivy Aretha, taking over supporting Lina who seemed unsteady on her feet.

He turned his head and spoke coldly to Michael Gordon, "You could have informed me if you were inviting someone I know to help you out."

After all, Lina worked under his company, and he didn’t even know she was attending such a big event! If he hadn’t asked her assistant, he would have been clueless and would have come alone, without even bringing an assistant or driver!

"I invited Miss Miller personally for help. It has nothing to do with your Jensen Company!" Michael Gordon replied, protectively pulling Ivy into his embrace. His guarded action made Mario Jensen want to chuckle.

"She’s my..."

Mario Jensen’s words were interrupted by Lina’s gentle voice.

"Fabian Nala, I told Mr. Gordon myself that I wanted to come and see the working atmosphere at Allure International. I wanted to learn from the positive aspects. Don’t be angry; it’s my fault. I won’t do it again!"

Lina held his hand, shaking with nervousness. She didn’t want Mario Jensen to have an unpleasant incident with Michael Gordon because of Ivy. It would be a shameful incident in front of so many employees at Allure International, where it was Michael Gordon’s domain!

Although Mario Jensen still wanted to say something, he held his tongue when he noticed Lina’s pale face!
