9: Chapter 9: A Passing Encounter 9: Chapter 9: A Passing Encounter This child is always so understanding.
Sigh.
Old Lady Blake’s eyes were slightly moist, “Ivy, back then you were too impulsive.
Why didn’t you demand more money from that brat?
His only rit is being rich, but his flaw is being blind to people!
What kind of person did he find!”
At the last remark, Old Lady Blake rolled her eyes, full of anger.
Ivy River was successfully amused, “Grandma, you might as well say he’s just rich and foolish.
We shouldn’t be like him.
You’re getting old, you can’t keep getting angry, haven’t you been upset enough over the years?”
Old Lady Blake sighed, “Ivy, I know you’re angry, but you shouldn’t have left with nothing.
It should have been him leaving with nothing!
Didn’t you just benefit that brat?”
Ivy River didn’t want to listen, so she laughed and changed the subject, “Alright, Grandma, let tell you about my years abroad…”
The grandmother and granddaughter chatted freely, and soon it was ti for Fatty and Emmy to get out of school.
“It’s getting late, Grandma.
I can’t stay for dinner tonight, but I’ll co back another ti to eat with you.”
Ivy River gently massaged Old Lady Blake’s shoulders as she spoke softly.
Old Lady Blake smiled in relief, “Go ahead, I won’t keep you.
Co ho often.”
“Grandma, Grandma Lee, if anyone asks, just say I’m a doctor, and you must keep it a secret.”
After seeing the two nod, Ivy River finished speaking and left, completely ignoring the hint of resolve in Old Lady Blake’s eyes.
Old Lady Blake took a deep breath, “Announce that three days later I will hold a board eting, and everyone must attend.”
Butler Lee responded, “Alright.”
When Ivy River drove out, she just happened to pass by Edwin Blake’s car.
Edwin Blake was sitting in his car and happened to look out the window.
The figure speeding past seed sowhat familiar.
Ivy River!
This is the old residence; if she ca back, it would definitely be to see Grandma.
Edwin Blake imdiately ordered, “Harry, turn the car around and catch up with that car.”
Harry Ross didn’t dare delay, turned the car around, and stepped on the gas to chase in Ivy River’s direction.
Ivy River glanced at the rearview mirror, recognizing the unique Seaton license plate and the only Rolls Royce in the city.
Wasn’t that her damn ex-husband, Edwin Blake?
Running into him now, it sure is fate.
Her lips curled slightly as she rcilessly stepped on the gas, and the car sped off.
Harry Ross saw this and imdiately accelerated in pursuit.
The two of them were locked in an even ga.
Finally, at a bend, Ivy River rolled down the window, gave a middle finger out the window, and then swiftly disappeared.
Harry Ross looked dismayed, “Boss, we lost her.”
Edwin Blake chuckled coldly, “Head back to the old residence.”
He looked sharply at the window at that familiar finger but couldn’t recall where he’d seen it before.
The car drove to the old residence, and he quickly went inside.
“Grandma, Grandma Lee called , saying you’re holding a board eting,” Edwin hesitated, “Also, did you et anyone this afternoon?”
Old Lady Blake, as sly as a fox, kept a straight face, “A doctor ca to check my pulse and prescribed dicine.”
She then handed the prescription to Edwin Blake.
He must have run into Ivy on his way up the mountain earlier.
“Your family doctor is male, Grandma; where did you find this new doctor?”
“I know what I’m doing.
You don’t need to worry.”
Edwin Blake was a little reluctant, “Grandma, you should stop finding outside doctors.
I don’t feel secure.
I’ll have Harry look into this prescription.
Was the doctor soone you knew before?”
“What, are you planning to investigate now?
Should I sign over my shares tomorrow and die quickly to make room for you and that woman?”
Edwin Blake lowered his head, “I wouldn’t dare, Grandma.
I was just asking casually.”
Old Lady Blake snorted coldly, “I heard you’re searching for so Divine Doctor lately to treat that woman’s illness?
Be careful, and don’t forget what you promised .
Have you heard any news about Ivy recently?”
“Grandma, I am indeed looking for a Divine Doctor, and I’ll invite her to check your health then.
I am still searching for Ivy River, and I’ll tell you imdiately when I have news.”
Edwin Blake avoided giving a direct answer.
Seeing his grandma like this, his doubts were slightly eased.
If it really were Ivy visiting, Grandma would have cried her heart out, but her eyes weren’t red right now.
Harry was already looking into the surveillance footage, and soon he’d have the results.
He needed to see who this car-racing doctor was.
Old Lady Blake spoke solemnly, “Edwin, Grandma went through two instances of white-haired people sending off black-haired ones in her lifeti, once when your grandpa passed away and once when your father left this ho.”
She looked up, “Ivy’s departure was also a fatal blow to .
Now I’m getting older, and while I’m still clear-headed, I need to tell you my will today.”
Edwin Blake was shocked, “Grandma!
What nonsense are you talking about?”
Old Lady Blake waved her hand, “Shut up.
You are the only male heir of our family for three generations.
Normally, everything in the Blake Family should be yours.”
“But I want to give all my shares and assets to Ivy.
Do you have a problem with that?”
Edwin Blake’s eyes flickered, and he remained silent.
