31: Chapter 31: Publicly Embarrassing Edwin Blake 31: Chapter 31: Publicly Embarrassing Edwin Blake Leon Peterson couldn’t help but hold his nose and shouted, “Isla Sutton, what is that sll on you?
It’s awful!”
Harry Ross chid in, “Yeah, where’s that sll coming from?
The hygiene is so terrible, how could this happen!”
Isla Sutton’s expression instantly froze.
Indeed, she had also slled the odor.
She lowered her head to sll herself, and it was unbearably foul.
“Ayla, what did you do to ?
Why do I sll so bad?”
Ivy River feigned surprise, “I’m treating you.
You sll because of the toxins you’ve accumulated over ti.
If you don’t want to stink, stop asking to treat you.”
She was never one to forgive and forget.
It wasn’t that she wouldn’t retaliate; it was just a matter of timing.
Now that she had a chance to punish Isla Sutton, she would never pass it up.
In fact, these toxins could have been managed with dication, but she wanted Isla to make a fool of herself!
Even now, it barely eased her long-standing grudge!
“You!
You!”
Isla stamred for a long while without saying anything aningful.
As Isla began to walk away, Ivy River spoke lightly, “Your treatnt isn’t finished yet.
Are you sure you want to leave?”
Isla paused in her steps.
“What do you an, it isn’t over?
I just vomited so much black blood, and I’m not uncomfortable anymore.
Don’t think of tricking back in to torture !”
Ivy River nodded, “Then please contact President Blake to settle my final paynt, and I’ll leave imdiately.”
Harry Ross didn’t dare to delay and quickly made the call.
A hint of doubt arose in Isla Sutton’s heart, “Ayla, did you really not treat properly?”
Ivy River ignored her and continued speaking to Harry Ross, “Rember to tell Edwin Blake that there will be no further service; it’s Isla Sutton not wanting treatnt herself, not refusing.”
The call connected, and Edwin Blake naturally heard everything.
Edwin Blake hung up and hurried upstairs.
As Ivy River’s words settled, the surroundings went silent.
After a while, Isla Sutton made up her mind, her tone filled with reluctance, “Ayla, please treat .”
Ivy River glanced over, her eyes filled with coldness.
“No.”
“Why?”
“You just ran out accusing of harming you.
Apologize.”
Ivy River looked completely serious, not appearing to joke.
Leon Peterson saw this and hurriedly spoke, “Isla Sutton, what exactly did you do?
Hurry up and apologize.”
Isla’s heart skipped a beat, “I-I didn’t do anything wrong, so why should I apologize?”
“Why did you run out earlier?
Did sothing happen?”
“Just now, Ayla was scaring in there, saying she’d send to Hellsgate or sothing, and I got scared and ran out.”
Leon Peterson laughed, “If you haven’t done anything wrong, why are you afraid of such things?
Could it be that you’ve done sothing wrong yourself?”
“I have not!”
Isla Sutton was enraged at having her thoughts exposed, “Who do you think you are?
Just Ayla’s lapdog, daring to bark here!”
With those words, the elevator door opened.
Edwin Blake frowned slightly as he strode out.
Clearly, he had heard those words.
But he was equally shocked by the blood all over Isla Sutton and urgently asked, “Isla, what’s going on with the blood on you!”
Before Isla Sutton could answer, Edwin Blake’s questioning voice was heard.
“Divine Doctor Ayla, you better explain, is it that Divine Doctors treat patients by covering them in black blood?”
Ivy River coldly replied, “The toxins accumulated in your body for years were suddenly purged.
Isn’t it supposed to be black?”
Isla embraced the opportunity to approach him, still emitting a faint foul odor.
“Edwin, you finally ca up!
I didn’t see you when I ca out.”
Edwin Blake glanced at her and ignored her, continuing to question Ivy River.
“Alright then, why won’t you treat Isla?”
“Apologize.”
“What?”
Edwin Blake didn’t understand.
Ivy River raised her eyebrows, “Tell your beloved, First Love, to apologize to .”
“Give a reason.”
“For falsely accusing of attempting to harm her, can you tell , President Blake, do I have any reason to harm her?
If she dies, I won’t get a cent.
Would I really pass up hundreds of billions of cash and shares?”
Edwin Blake looked at her emotionless face, feeling a surge of anger, “Did you attempt to harm her?”
Ivy River wore a mocking smile, not saying a word.
Edwin Blake turned his gaze to Isla Sutton, “Isla, you tell .”
“Edwin, you don’t believe !”
Listening to his distant tone, Isla Sutton wanted to reach out and grab Edwin Blake.
Edwin Blake subconsciously retreated half a step, “I believe you, but right now, getting treated is more important.
Speak the truth; it’s fine, I’m here for you.”
Isla Sutton stared at her empty hand, stunned.
Just as her eyes welled up with tears, Edwin Blake continued, “Isla, sit down.
Ayla is soone I persuaded with great difficulty.
Now I need to know what happened in there, tell , okay?”
Isla Sutton tried hard to suppress her inner bitterness and recounted the events.
Except, she excluded the part about her own outburst.
After listening, Edwin Blake nodded, comforted, “It’s alright, these are minor issues.
You just rest, I’ll handle the rest.”
Then ca the questioning voice.
His voice indifferent, “Ayla, I think they’re all trivial problems, don’t you?”
Ivy River walked forward with a smile, staring at Edwin Blake, her coquettish beauty accentuated by the tear mole at the corner of her eye.
Edwin Blake’s gaze stopped on the tear mole.
His eyes showed a look of doubt, and he commanded, “Go in and continue the treatnt for Isla.”
Isla Sutton frowned deeply, her gaze started darting back and forth between the two of them.
A woman’s intuition is very keen.
She sensed that things were not as simple as she thought.
Ivy River looked at Edwin Blake with a smile, “Without the slightest hint of humor in her eyes, does President Blake not understand human language?
I said apologize.”
Edwin Blake was angry, “Ayla, you were unreasonable first!”
“Oh, really?”
“My patience is limited.
You better quickly go and treat her.”
“And what if I say no?”
At those words, the air instantly fell silent.
No one dared to breathe loudly.
Edwin Blake was furious, seething, “Ayla!
I hope you know when to stop.”
“President Blake, may I say that your behavior now is like that of a child?
Not to ntion what happened inside, just now Isla Sutton said herself in front of everyone that she didn’t need my treatnt.”
Edwin Blake imdiately turned his gaze towards Harry Ross and Leon Peterson.
Leon Peterson nodded instantly, “Yeah, just now Isla Sutton ca out saying she didn’t need the treatnt.”
Harry Ross kept his head down, silent.
Seeing this, Isla Sutton imdiately jumped in, “Ayla, I later said I wanted the treatnt, but you refused to treat .”
“So, Miss Sutton, why didn’t you tell Edwin Blake about the threats you made to inside?”
Edwin Blake spoke softly, “State your terms, Ayla, what would make you agree to continue the treatnt?”
“President Blake, such big talk, truly worthy of being a man who could abandon his wife and divorce for his First Love back then.”
As Ivy River finished speaking, the surroundings fell silent.
