Ivy turned her head: "Don’t tell these things. I know, you probably don’t have that kind of intention.
But I can’t console myself right now.
Because... because I can’t see the good in you, all I can think about is the frightening possibility of you leaving .
Rather than living in fear every day, I want..."
"It’s my fault for making you feel wronged by being with ." Henry interrupted Ivy and kissed her on the forehead.
"From today on, let stay by your side and prove it to you.
Ivy, I’m not a heartless man. I’m responsible and since I married you, I’ll take responsibility to the end."
"I want more than just responsibility."
"I’ve already said, I will love you. Even if you don’t believe Isla, you can totally trust . I’ll keep my word."
Ivy bit her lip. Henry’s words left her speechless. She just wanted to change him, but instead, he had found a way through.
"Ivy, you know, right? I really don’t know where Isla is.
At first, I didn’t ask. Later I asked Faye because of you, but Faye wouldn’t tell .
Faye said it’s a secret between her and Isla, and she won’t tell anyone.
This ans that Isla’s affairs are no longer related to .
Didn’t you ask to withdraw from Isla’s world? I’ve done it."
As he spoke, he let go of Ivy and looked at her steadily.
Ivy looked at him with a hint of helplessness. She turned over, got onto the bed, and lay down. Henry ca over and casually lay down on the other side.
He clearly has a wife, yet he hasn’t been able to sleep holding his wife for several days.
This feeling is not good at all.
If he’d known that sticking around would let him stay, he should have done this from the first day they left.
Faye’s reminder ca too late.
Henry moved closer to Ivy’s side and hugged her from behind.
Ivy said coldly, "Before I feel good, you can’t touch ."
"Touch? Do you an not hug or not do anything?"
"Nothing at all."
Henry smirked: "But I’ve already touched you now, it’s too late."
He said it with a mischievous smile and began to kiss her. Ivy resisted a couple of tis, and Henry realized she genuinely didn’t want it, so he chose to respect her wishes.
Nevertheless, due to his affectionate gesture, she seed fine with him holding her while sleeping.
That night, Ivy slept exceptionally well. Ivy didn’t have the habit of waking up in the night, so she woke up when it was already past six.
Henry was in the kitchen making breakfast. She got up, changed Ivy’s diaper as she cried, fed her milk, and comforted the baby before carrying her out.
Henry had already placed a simple breakfast on the dining table.
Seeing them co out, Henry smiled: "It’s just as well you guys woke up; I won’t need to leave a note. Let’s eat."
He said this as he took off his apron: "I’m running out of ti, Aunt will arrive at seven thirty. You’ll have to manage a bit and take care of Ivy."
Ivy glanced at the ti on the wall, it was only six-thirty; they needed to leave early as there was still so distance to his unit.
He walked to the door, and Ivy suddenly said: "Aren’t you having breakfast?"
"No ti, I’ll eat at the unit. I’ll ssage you once I’m there."
Henry said as he left, leaving Ivy with a bit of guilt in her heart.
Staying here ans he has to get up early.
He only slept close to midnight last night... at this rate, he can’t keep it up either.
No, no, it’s his fault for coming here on his own; she didn’t force him.
Besides, it’s his own fault for not handling things properly, leaving her, who just gave birth and tends to be neurotic, feeling stressed.
He deserves to suffer a little, it’s only fair.
In the morning, Ivy received a call from Jas.
After feeding Ivy, she handed the child over to the aunt and went out.
She had agreed to et Jas at the sa café as yesterday.
Jas called her upon arrival, so when she went in, he had already finished a cup of coffee.
Upon seeing him in the shop, Ivy quickly walked over: "Sorry, I’m late."
"You are indeed late. But it’s okay, you have a child to care for, it’s understandable."
Ivy pursed her lips: "Yesterday, my husband’s commander got very tense because you ca to find ."
"I figured," he said casually, picking up his coffee cup and crossing his legs.
"He’d probably be nervous, fearing I’d take you away and hide you."
Ivy sighed: "Actually... my husband is pretty innocent too.
He truly doesn’t know where your loved one is.
Yesterday, due to what I said, she called Faye Townsend.
But not only did Faye not tell him where Isla Linton is now, she even ca to persuade ."
"I have to say, the friends Isla made are truly loyal.
If it were ordinary people, they would have sold out their friends for money long ago.
But whether it’s Hunter Warren, Faye Townsend, or Henry Sullivan, none of them are like that.
Those at the top of the pyramid, money isn’t their weakness; love is.
I can’t deal with Hunter Warren and Faye Townsend, so I have to start with you, the weakest point.
If I’ve caused you trouble, here, I raise my coffee instead of wine to apologize."
Henry looked at the man in front of him, really unable to understand. Such a good person, is Isla Linton out of her mind?
Even if she truly still loves Henry Sullivan, after returning and seeing that Henry is already married with children, why insist on staying?
What good will co out of ruining the uncle’s marriage?
Can a mother-in-law really accept her then? Obviously not possible at all.
Even this daughter-in-law who has given birth for the Sullivan family and is favored by her father-in-law is not liked by the mother-in-law, let alone her who was never liked by her in-laws.
Stepping back ten thousand steps, even if no one hinders them.
Still, wouldn’t she have to be the uncle’s second wife and beco the stepmother to another woman’s child?
No matter how you calculate, this is not a good deal.
Going back to Jas Yinley would be much better.
