"Yes! She must write a confession letter, otherwise she is not allowed to enter the Ford Family!"
The crowd began to speak loudly.
Sebastian Blackwood’s sharp brows furrowed tightly, seemingly unable to resist so many people, and he nodded in agreent.
"Alright."
Three minutes later, Ivy Kensington was brought to the study.
"You must finish the confession letter in an hour, or don’t co out!"
Chloe Ford said sternly from outside the door.
Ivy’s gaze quivered slightly.
Chloe Ford was on her side, and the earlier scene was likely a performance with Sebastian Blackwood.
The reason she was brought to the study must be because there was sothing very important for her to find here.
With this in mind, Ivy quickly cald down.
She looked around the study.
This study was exclusively used by Theodore Ford when he was alive, and without his permission, no one could enter.
This was also Ivy’s first ti here.
She opened the cabinet in front of the desk and found a diary.
It was written in Theodore Ford’s handwriting, and she began to read—
[Letting Ivy marry Ethan might not be the right choice; Ethan will not be Ivy’s good match.]
[My health is getting worse, and I might not live long. Sadly, I won’t have ti to tell Ivy this secret.]
[Ethan is becoming harder to understand; he might not truly love the Ford Family... I hope this is just my misconception...]
[Ivy was deceived by Ethan, the Blood Lotus is useless, it was just Ethan’s excuse to harm her and have killed, but I can’t say it out loud. I can no longer speak, and even writing a few words is difficult, let alone having any spare clarity...]
[Ivy, the dical and Poison Dual Classics... this... this...]
The words following were written intermittently, and Ivy couldn’t make out the content.
She bit her lip hard, her eyes gradually filled with tears.
It turned out that her father had long known about Ethan’s ill intentions towards the Ford Family. He wanted to tell her but could no longer express it.
Ivy’s lips trembled, tears silently falling as she held Theodore Ford’s notebook to her chest.
"Dad, I’m sorry..."
If she had noticed Ethan’s strangeness earlier, the Ford Family might not have ended up like this.
Her eyes were again fixed on the four characters "dical and Poison Dual Classics," and Ivy suddenly understood.
The thing Chloe Ford wanted her to find might just be this "dical and Poison Dual Classics!"
After figuring this out, she pulled herself together and circled the study again.
However, she searched the whole study but didn’t find anything related to the dical and Poison Dual Classics.
Could she have thought wrong?
With slight contemplation, Ivy’s gaze fell on a vase in the study.
She rembered this vase was a gift she had given Theodore Ford when she returned from abroad.
He cherished it dearly, placing it closest to his desk, and personally wiped it many tis a day, not allowing anyone else to touch it...
In an instant, Ivy realized sothing.
She walked up to the vase, and "Crash—"
A crisp sound rang out as the vase toppled and shattered, leaving only the base firmly glued to the table.
Looking down, she found a yellowed book pressed under the vase’s base, exactly what she was searching for—the dical and Poison Dual Classics!
With delight, Ivy quickly took out the book and began to read through it.
The content inside left her astonished.
It contained records of many poisonous herbs not found on the market, and the corresponding antidotes, as well as comprehensive docuntations of various dicinal herbs and their harvesting areas.
This was simply invaluable!
Ivy read rapidly, covering half the book in less than half an hour.
Just as she was about to turn the page, "Hand over the dical classic to —"
