Chapter 492: Chapter 471: I’ll definitely castrate him directly!
Before she could finish her sentence, Ivy Aretha gently interrupted her with a tap on the forehead. "Sure, whatever, you’re watching too many movies where the trickster becomes the Crown Prince, aren’t you? Now there’s even a princess—why not just straight up call yourself the Queen!"
However, a vague sense of suspicion strangely welled up in Ivy’s heart. She somehow remembered the middle-aged man they had met when she had accompanied Sienna Harrison to Theo Scott’s wedding — as well as his inexplicable exclamations of "Princess Ruby Ross!"
Her feminine intuition kept telling her these incidents are mysteriously connected!
Soon, though, Ivy quickly dismissed her eerie perception. How could that be possible?
She was the daughter of Luna Cooper. After her surgery, her memories had slowly started to return, and she remembered that man from her jumbled memories when she was five.
After they had a simple vegetarian meal, Ivy and Sienna managed to calm her down. Ivy even brought up the incident from earlier in the year, when Julie Harrison was forced by Oliver Thompson to plunge a fruit knife into his own chest. Finally, they agreed that it must have been the disaster foretold by the fortune telling signs, and it all started due to her.
This explanation seemed to finally assuage Julie’s fears, and her tension finally eased. She also came to believe that it was the disaster Oliver had foreseen. He was seriously injured, lying in bed for a long time, almost losing his life!
With this small episode finally resolved, the storm seemed to have passed. However, they had no idea that in a few days, they would truly understand what a bloody disaster really meant!
"Listen up, Cathy, stop giving Oliver the cold shoulder when they come back, or he’ll think you still resent him for making you suffer for three days and nights. Don’t forget to put on a smile when you see him!" Ivy joked as she walked towards the temple’s gate and tried to lift their moods.
"What do you mean ’think’? Men who are violent towards women should be resented. If Jaysen ever dared to treat me like that, I would castrate him and send him here to be a monk!"
Ivy Aretha: "..."
Between the two of them, it seemed like Miss Harrison was probably the more violent one!
Julie Harrison: "..."
It seemed like he wasn’t afraid of her blaming him at all, right?
If not, would he have dared to say those outlandish things to her while on that video call?
Thinking back to that video call on the car, the way he spoke, his expression, was there any sign of fear that she might blame or resent him?
Upon careful consideration, there actually wasn’t!
By this time, the three of them had already left the temple. As they walked a few steps, they saw a pair of young women approaching. Not many people visited the temple in the afternoon, so the presence of a few people on the beautiful mountain road stood out.
Before they could identify the newcomers, a clear voice breaking the silence, greeting them cheerfully.
"I didn’t expect to run into you here, Ivy, Miss Harrison, and... you must be Mrs. Thompson, right? Nice to meet you!"
All three women looked up simultaneously and saw Alya Larson in a light-blue long shirt and white leggings, standing next to a very handsome man who didn’t seem to be from their country.
The two were laughing and talking, their attitudes seeming exceptionally intimate. The man was extremely handsome; his refined features coupled with his pale skin and a pair of purple eyes formed the image of a refined nobleman. It was as though he were a prince emerging from a minor country’s palace.
Compared to Alya Larson, who appeared noble and intimidating, this man had a cold, hidden edge to him that didn’t quite match. Especially when they were together, it gave a peculiar impression of uncoordination, like a combination of a demon and an angel.
At first, the man was laughing and chatting with Alya Larson. However, when Alya greeted them, his gaze shifted towards them. The moment he saw Ivy, his handsome eyes noticeably tightened and immediately his face turned pale.
Just a few moments ago, his gentle gaze suddenly became sharp: "Alya, who is she?"
When he asked Alya this question, he was staring at Ivy. His piercing gaze felt as though he wanted to strip her bare, his whole demeanor becoming chillingly cold and emanating an overpowering lethal aura.
It was as if the jovial scene from just moments ago was merely an illusion.
"And who are you?"
Before Alya could respond, Sienna Harrison, sensing the hostility, stepped forward to shield Ivy, as did Julie Harrison.
"Miss Harrison, don’t misunderstand. This is my boyfriend, Sammy Lowe!"
Seeing Sienna Harrison’s defensive posture, Alya hurriedly stepped in to explain, providing a detailed introduction, "Sammy, the woman here is Miss Harrison, the wife of the financial genius Jaysen Smith. This is Ivy Aretha, the wife of Allure International’s CEO, Michael Gordon. And this is Julie Harrison, the renowned wife of the military figure, Oliver Thompson!"
Since Oliver Thompson had come to Andras City and been living in Michael Gordon’s house for nearly half a year, virtually the whole world knew that Mrs. Thompson was now staying in Andras City. As for her face, well, the internet is a very advanced place, and with a little effort, anyone can find anything!
"Oh, so you’re these three distinguished ladies!"
After hearing Alya’s explanation, the man called Sammy Lowe’s face resumed its initial, courteous, demeanor, as if his previous reaction to Ivy was merely a hallucination, which made Ivy take a cold breath.
This man was deeply calculative. The shift in his demeanor was so significant that it alarmed her. And the way he appeared to have a sudden realization after Alya had so painstakingly introduced them implied that he wasn’t unfamiliar with the three of them. Rather, he just didn’t recognize their faces!
After all, unlike Lina Miller, the three of them didn’t usually appear in the media, and few full-frontal photos of them could be found on the internet!
Your face may be unfamiliar, but your names and who you are - you are very familiar with. This clearly indicated that he had been keeping tabs on them. Ivy certainly didn’t believe that a stranger would show interest in three women like them, so it obviously had something to do with their men!
Therefore, based on her stellar logic as a leading legal mind, Ivy swiftly analyzed that this man was more than just unique, he could potentially even be connected to their men!
