Chapter 87: 88. The so-called parents of the child
Ivy had no idea what was said on the other end of the line, but she watched as Michael Gordon’s already stern face darkened further, his eyes flashing with a viciousness she had never seen before.
“Bring her to my study, I’m coming back right now!”
As soon as Michael had hung up, he gripped his phone so tightly it appeared he might crush the handcrafted, expensive device. Ivy was reminded of his similar reaction when he had found out about her daughter—smashing his phone and nearly breaking his hand.
“Michael Gordon, what happened?”
When she asked that, Ivy instinctively grabbed his hand—the one capable of crushing a phone at any mont. “Your injury hasn’t healed from last ti. Don’t get so worked up!”
At her words, Michael looked surprised. His eyes glanced at the hand she used to stop his dangerous action. He frowned, then as if recalling sothing, he suddenly smiled and teasingly asked, “Are you worried about ?”
Ivy quickly withdrew her hand, as if just realizing her forward action. Trying to cover, she responded, “If you crush another phone, you’ll be wasting thousands of dollars again!”
Last ti he’d crushed her phone, she’d found out that its specifications and design had made it worth tens of thousands of dollars.
No matter how wealthy, money isn’t burned like this. She couldn’t understand why he would resort to such violence, especially targeted towards phones.
Michael leaned in, his gaze falling on Ivy’s face, which was too embarrassed to et his gaze.
Heh!
Her face was so red, yet she was still trying to act tough!
It was clear she was worried he’d hurt his hand again by crushing a phone like last ti!
“So, you’re already concerned about my spending before you even marry ?”
Michael leaned in close, chuckling under his breath. His mood seed surprisingly good, as if the irritating phone call had never happened. He added, “Don’t worry about money. If I can afford you in bed, then I can afford to take care of you and your daughter.”
Ivy: “…”
As Ivy was frozen in place, Michael’s face ca even closer. Just as Ivy thought his lips would embrace hers once again.
Michael took a mont to straighten out her shirt, which had beco sowhat disheveled under his weight. As he smirked wickedly, he leaned closer to her ear and muttered, “It seems your 34C bra size isn’t a lie. You live up to the international standard. Rember next ti, I’ll not press so hard!”
If he damaged them, he’d be losing out.
Before Ivy had a chance to slap him, he had already pulled away from her body. Ivy’s hands were left hanging in mid-air, as she watched him turn and walk away.
Then, she let out a deep sigh of relief.
The thing she had been worrying about finally happened—Michael Gordon knew that Bianca was his daughter. So, what would happen next?
Would he take Bianca away from her?
What did he an by being able to ‘afford to take care of you and your daughter’?
Could it be that he intended to take her away like garbage?
But he has a fiancée! A graceful and elegant woman who appeared in his office last ti. Although Michael didn’t seem to like her much.
However, she heard that this woman had been chosen to be the future wife of the Gordon family. She would be joining the company next week to develop feelings with Michael. Everyone in Allure International knew this!
Although he and Miss Larson didn’t feel anything for each other now, with ti, they would naturally develop feelings. Maybe Miss Larson didn’t have her beauty, but her charisma, aura, and background were far superior to hers!
Many female stars failed to marry into wealthy families because of class discrepancies, let alone her—a woman who didn’t even know who her parents were!
Even if she secretly had Michael Gordon’s child, she wouldn’t beco his wife. This was sothing Ivy understood. A Cinderella remains a Cinderella, having a child wouldn’t magically make her beco a princess!
If having children were enough, Rosy Leon having three sons would’ve enabled her to marry into a wealthy family. Not to ntion, she only had one daughter!
However, she had never thought about it this way!
The sharp, piercing ring of a phone call interrupted Ivy’s daze. The call was from Sienna Harrison.
“Ivy, how are you doing? Has Mr. Gordon punished you yet? And you didn’t even have the decency to tell
that Michael Gordon is the man who you saved and… bedded all those years ago!”
When Sienna got her call, she rushed to the hospital. She had co to help look for a blood match but had not expected the bombshell that the child was Michael Gordon’s!
After the surgery was finished, he unceremoniously had her leave the hospital!
Her gossip-loving heart was not satisfied, so she was unable to sleep!
“You really have the nerve to kick
while I’m down. From his reaction, it seems that he’s quite fond of this illegitimate child. If he insists on taking the child back, what should I do? I can’t survive without Bianca!” Ivy sighed deeply.
Bianca was the only relative she had left in this world!
She didn’t dare to imagine what would happen if Bianca was taken away!
“Ivy Aretha, what on earth are you thinking about? Him liking Bianca should be a good thing. Or would you rather he hated her so much he wished she had never been born?” On the other end of the call, Sienna heard what Ivy said and wished she could knock so sense into her head, “I think not only does he like Bianca, but he also harbors fond feelings for you. Since he needs a wife so badly he has started going on blind dates, why don’t you and your daughter just live with him? Two for the price of one, sounds quite grand.”
When Ivy heard this, she was on the verge of laughing her tears out!
“You think everyone is like you? No matter how desperate he is for a wife, the won he ets at blind dates are of your level, Sienna. As for , a girl who doesn’t even know who her parents are, even bearing tons of children won’t make a difference!”
In fact, even if Michael Gordon went on a blind date, the woman he’d et would be from a distinguished family. If she hadn’t interfered on Sienna’s behalf, she wouldn’t even have t him at the blind dating session!
“Tsk tsk, quite a sour mouth you have there!”
Sienna chuckled, delighted by her words. “Don’t tell
you have no feelings for him. I did see you today. The way you relied on him so desperately, it’s clear that you’ve already accepted him as your man!”
