He turned around and said to Leon Keane, "Daddy, lately you should stay close and protect Mommy."
Leon Keane curled his thin lips, sarcastically saying, "She managed to rescue Timmy from the kidnappers all by herself, do you think she needs protection?"
Ian Keane frowned, seriously saying, "She does."
Leon Keane said, "Stop worrying unnecessarily, your mommy is very capable!"
Ian Keane didn’t like hearing Leon Keane say such things. Does he want to argue with Mommy again and make her leave in anger?
"If Mommy gets a scratch, I’ll co looking for you."
"..."
Timmy Monroe admired Ian Keane, "Brother is so cool! I really like having a brother like this."
"Timmy, let’s go."
"Okay."
Timmy Monroe followed Ian Keane, cheerfully heading off to school.
Leon Keane felt uncomfortable, what kind of son is this? Always causing trouble, can’t he see I’m in a bad mood because of yesterday’s events? Instead of blaming Ivana for risking her life to rescue Timmy, he cos to reprimand , his father? Is this little brat trying to encourage Ivana’s reckless behavior?
Ivana stood watching the two kids walk away, feeling a warmth in her heart. Ian, the seemingly cold kid, was truly heartwarming.
Ivana got up.
Today, she planned to head to "Yiren Magazine" before going to GK.
Leon Keane left the house at the sa ti as her, and when Ivana was about to drive, Leon Keane grabbed her hand.
"Co with ."
Leon Keane took Ivana to his car.
Ivana fastened her seatbelt, thinking Leon Keane was going to accompany her to work and really protect her closely.
Unexpectedly, midway through the drive, Ivana realized sothing was wrong. This route wasn’t going towards "Yiren Magazine."
"You’re on the wrong route, I need to go to Yiren Magazine. This isn’t the route to Yiren Magazine."
"It’s not wrong. Who said I’d take you to that broken magazine?"
What broken magazine? Yiren Magazine was Ivy’s hard work, and quite popular in Ravenswood.
"Please, if you’re upset, talk about sothing else. Don’t put down Yiren Magazine, okay? Ivy is already having it hard enough. That’s all she has left. If I don’t help her, who else in this world can?"
"Leon Keane, what if it were Howard Yeats instead? If Howard faced a crisis and handed his company over to you, would you consider it a broken company and wish I wouldn’t stop you from helping a brother?"
In Leon Keane’s car, Ivana didn’t want to offend him, so she pleaded earnestly.
Leon Keane slightly curled his lips.
Ivy only has "Yiren Magazine"? What about Nicole? Didn’t Ivy take Nicole with her?
Ivy, that woman, had a cowardly attitude, afraid of Samuel Lockwood to the point she abandoned the hard work of many years, taking Nicole and hiding.
Did she think that would work?
If Samuel really wanted to find her, it wouldn’t take long.
Let’s not forget, Samuel runs a law firm, thriving in Ravenswood, dealing with lawsuits all day, so he’s got his ways to track people down.
Leon Keane didn’t ntion any of this to Ivana.
Because he wasn’t worried about Ivy being in any real danger.
Howard Yeats had already gone to the small town where Ivy was, just to pursue her.
As long as Howard was there, Samuel couldn’t hurt Ivy.
Leon Keane thought to himself, Ivy was lucky to be friends with Ivana and to be noticed by his good brother, Howard. If not, Ivy’s hardships would have just begun.
"Howard wouldn’t hand his company over to , he’s not a coward," Leon Keane said proudly.
"..."
Ivana rolled her eyes at Leon Keane, she was just drawing a comparison, hoping Leon might put himself in Ivy’s shoes, but she realized she was wrong. Leon just didn’t get the concept of empathy, and he was quite arrogant.
Couldn’t communicate.
Leon Keane turned his gaze back to Ivana and said, "Ian said, if you get hurt, he’d co to find . How can I let our son down? So, for now, you can’t go anywhere; you must stay by my side."
Ivana’s expression stiffened, "Then what about Yiren Magazine and GK?"
"I think with Jacobs at GK, there won’t be any major issues. As for Yiren Magazine, if you’re worried, I can send Derrick to help out. Derrick’s capabilities will put you at ease."
"..."
Ivana twitched her lips, Leon had already thought it all out for her, huh?
Alright!
Leon wasn’t wrong; with Jacobs at GK, she was much relieved, and she knew Derrick’s ability. To have worked for many years beside soone as demanding as Leon Keane, he must be quite exceptional.
Sticking with Leon for a few days might be good too, that mysterious assassin with the silver mask, who appears out of nowhere, might be deterred. He wouldn’t suddenly appear like he did last ti.
Actually, since bringing Timmy back last night, she had hardly slept, her mind constantly filled with images of the masked assassin, even imagining all the grueso scenarios he could have employed against her.
Ivana shivered.
Oh my! Better not think about it, it’s terrifying to even imagine.
At this mont.
A strikingly handso man was lying in a hospital, the doctor lifted his shirt to check his heart rate.
After the examination was complete.
After the heart rate report ca out.
The doctor looked at it: "There’s nothing wrong, your heartbeat is normal and very healthy."
Richie frowned, "How could that be? I felt a tightness and severe pain in my heart yesterday."
Doctor: "But from your reports, your heart indeed has no problems. Can you tell the ti of the pain yesterday and what might have triggered it?"
"It was last night, there was..." Richie thought about Ivana, that slender figure under the streetlights, her fair legs exposed to the cold wind. His chest felt uncomfortable again, "Nothing happened."
Could he say what happened last night? Wouldn’t that reveal he was an assassin?
The doctor looked suspiciously at Richie; from his eyes, it was clear the man wasn’t telling the truth.
"If you don’t wish to disclose, I can’t help you. Perhaps... your issue isn’t with the heart, but another ailnt causing it. With the patient’s cooperation, we can make correct judgnts and help in examination and treatnt."
"Another ailnt? Now go ahead and give a full-body exam."
"If you want a full-body check, you need to go to the examination departnt, where they do it every Monday."
It was Thursday now, and Richie didn’t want to wait for three more days until Monday.
Richie didn’t want to wait that long: "Why go to the examination departnt? Aren’t you a doctor? Just give a form for a full-body check now."
Doctor: "I can’t do that, I’m not from the examination departnt, I’m from cardiology."
Richie’s face turned cold, and he got angry.
Nearby, Flash saw Richie’s about-to-kill expression, and his nerves were tense as he quickly held Richie down, whispering, "Boss, this is a hospital, don’t act rashly. Maybe tell the doctor about seeing Ivana last night and let him analyze it?"
