Chapter 284: After modification: Chapter 283
Ivy rolled her eyes and turned around to leave.
Alexander panicked, “Sister-in-law, sister-in-law! Where are you going…”
He looked up at Edwin, who was glaring at him, and instantly panicked.
“Bro, you can’t be mad at for this, right? Maybe sister-in-law is tired and went back to her room to rest. It’s not really my fault, don’t take it out on .”
Edwin sneered, “Go find elder brother. He’s on a business trip abroad and needs a helper. I’ll give him a call in a bit.”
“No!” Alexander was utterly flustered, “Bro, I gave you two million for looking after the kids. You know my pocket money is tight. Giving two million is really not bad, please consider the money…”
Edwin cut him off, “Did I ask you for it?”
Alexander’s eyes widened in disbelief, “Bro, you’re just heartless. You weren’t like this before.”
“Go ho and pack your things. Go find elder brother and report to him.”
With that, Edwin also turned and went back inside.
Leaving Alexander to bear everything alone.
He muttered, “Gave the money, put on a smile, and in the end, neither of them even gave a good face. Do I have it easy? They must be doing this on purpose! Just to scam money from .”
“And elder brother’s place is such a terrible spot, even birds won’t poop there. How can people survey and develop it? Capitalists are terrifying!”
Just as he was grumbling.
Ivy returned without him even noticing and chuckled lightly at his words.
He turned around, surprised and delighted, “Sister-in-law, why did you co back?”
“Open the door for .”
“To my house?”
Ivy looked at Alexander with an expression as if he was an idiot.
He imdiately understood and went to open the door, elated.
“Sister-in-law, what brings you here suddenly? Did you see your brother-in-law getting bullied by your ex-husband and couldn’t stand it?”
“No.” Ivy replied rcilessly.
“Then why?”
She raised her dical kit.
Alexander said, “Oh, you’re treating my brother at ho?”
“Yes, there’s a competition today, so I’ll do it at ho this ti. Has Edwin returned to the company?”
“No, he’s still sulking with , thinking I made you leave. Tsk tsk.”
Alexander took the opportunity to complain.
Ivy didn’t know what she thought, but she imdiately grabbed Alexander and whispered sothing to him.
He quickly agreed, “Sister-in-law, your idea is brilliant! You’re like a goddess to . If anything happens, you must protect !”
Ivy simply replied, “Hmm.”
They walked into the house.
“Bro! Bro! Get out here and get your treatnt, sister-in-law is here!”
Alexander’s loud voice reverberated through the house.
Edwin was in the study having a eting, “eting paused, dismissed. We’ll resu once I’m done.”
He then ended the eting.
Alexander continued yelling, “Bro! My dear brother, sister-in-law is here! Sister-in-law! Is this house too soundproof? Why can’t you hear at this volu?”
“Edwin? Edwin! Did you hear or are your ears not working? Good thing sister-in-law is here, she can treat you—ah!”
Before he could finish, Edwin kicked him hard in the butt.
He stumbled forward.
“Who’s there!”
Alexander barely steadied himself.
Edwin coldly said, “Scram.”
Alexander instantly felt guilty, “Bro, I’m telling you, sister-in-law just got here, I got a bit excited, called you many tis and you didn’t respond.”
Edwin turned to Ivy, “Didn’t you say we wouldn’t do acupuncture today?”
Without a word, she grabbed her dical kit and headed for the door.
Alexander quickly blocked her, “Sister-in-law, where are you going? The room isn’t that way, let show you, you’re headed the wrong way.”
She didn’t move.
He winked and said, “Co on, don’t mind him, you’ve been together for so many years, you know him well.”
“I don’t know him at all.” Ivy retorted.
After a mont of silence, Alexander took her dical kit.
She handed it over without resistance.
Alexander led the way and whispered to Edwin, “If you keep being contrary, I won’t help you win back sister-in-law, I an it! After she’s finally willing to co, and you act like this!”
Edwin glanced at Ivy heading towards the guest room.
“Upstairs.” he said.
She flatly refused, “No.”
“The guest bed on the first floor isn’t comfortable.”
“Then why buy it? As a CEO, you can’t even afford a proper bed?”
Edwin suppressed his anger and headed upstairs.
“I’ll be waiting upstairs.”
Alexander begged and pleaded before finally getting Ivy to go up.
Little did he know.
As soon as Ivy reached the top.
She was hit with a familiar wave of nostalgia.
She took a look around and found that everything, the layout, the decor, was identical to their previous villa.
Except…
There was no solo wedding photo of her in the master bedroom.
And their joint photo now only had her left…
Did he really hate her so much?
Edwin leaned against the door fra and teased, “Ivy, does this look the sa as before?”
“Crazy.” she said, about to leave.
He pulled her in and closed the door with his foot.
Grabbing her chin, “What’s the fuss about?”
Shocked, she pushed him away forcefully.
“Who’s fussing with you? I’m here to treat you, not to play house.”
Edwin played along, “Yeah, so let’s begin. Here, right? Take off the clothes?”
He started undressing.
His actions and expressions were full of ambiguity.
In this familiar setting and atmosphere.
Ivy’s face turned a deep red…
Seeing this, Edwin’s voice deepened, “All set.”
She glanced, blushing, quickly turning away.
“Edwin! Why did you take off your pants too! This treatnt doesn’t require that!”
Before he could stop her, Ivy ran out.
Alexander, puzzled, still had his hand on the doorknob, “Sister-in-law, your kit is here, where are you going?”
He turned to see Edwin covering himself with a blanket.
A mischievous smile spread across his face, “Bro, what did you do to sis-in-law? Why did she run away embarrassed?”
“Go bring her back.” Edwin commanded coldly.
Alexander was stunned, “You want ? To bring sister-in-law back?”
Edwin nodded, “Any problem?”
“No.” Alexander sprang into action.
“Sister-in-law, for our big plan, please bear with it. Later you can really stick it to my brother! How about that?”
“No matter how he argues, threatens, even if he exiles to Africadia, I’ll make sure to avenge you today!”
She coldly replied, “If you show even a hint of rcy later, you’ll be the next Edwin. I’ll make sure you suffer a thousand tis his pain.”
He shuddered and quickly waved his hands in denial.
