Damien paused for a mont, looking up at Ivy Sumrs, who lay beneath him like a frightened little animal, staring at him in fear and panic.
Damien’s jaw tightened slightly as he finally regained so composure, looking at her, "Ivy Sumrs, I’ll tell you again, don’t even think about divorce."
"Then I’ll tell you again too, don’t think about making submit."
She looked like she was prepared to fight him to the end.
Damien found it sowhat amusing, snorting with a laugh, "Alright, then let’s see, Ivy Sumrs, I admire your courage."
Damien stood up straight, saying, "I’ll order you another dinner. If you knock it over again, then don’t eat tonight. You’re spoiled."
Ivy Sumrs looked up; the man had once again suppressed his anger and left without turning back.
Ivy Sumrs rubbed her lips forcefully, almost wishing she could peel the skin off them.
Silently she repeated to herself.
Bitten by a dog.
Bitten by a dog.
Bitten by a dog!
Outside, watching his brother storm off again in anger, Zachary Lancaster thought of their father’s words, "There will be a ti when he cries."
In truth, both of them are too stubborn; unless soone compromises, their relationship will be hard to nd.
...
Rachel Shaw had just woken up, her crying was making Phillip Shaw annoyed.
It only just dawned on her.
What the hell!
Ivy Sumrs clearly didn’t die.
She actually didn’t die!
How could she not be dead!
That damn bitch is surprisingly lucky!
And that damned kid didn’t have any issues either.
After all her efforts, they are perfectly fine, and she?
Covered in injuries, despised by Damien Lancaster, and now he’s even threatening to cancel the cooperation with the Shaw Family.
Although Phillip Shaw already called Gregory Lancaster, and Gregory said he would never cancel the collaboration, they still couldn’t rest easy.
Fortunately, Gregory said he would personally co back to handle it, only then did the Shaw Family feel a bit relieved.
Phillip Shaw sternly warned Rachel Shaw, "You better behave these days, don’t stir up trouble again. If the Lancaster Group truly cancels the cooperation with us, our loss will be trendous.
Also, think about how to win Damien Lancaster’s heart back. Your Uncle Lancaster said he will co back and ensure they divorce quickly, and then arrange for your engagent banquet."
"Engagent banquet?" Rachel Shaw was delighted to hear these three words.
"Right, actually, your Uncle Lancaster wanted you both to be engaged a long ti ago, but because Damien Lancaster and Ivy Sumrs haven’t divorced, this matter kept being delayed. Now he will personally co back to handle it."
"Really?" Rachel Shaw’s eyes lit up, "So as long as they get divorced, Uncle Lancaster will arrange for an engagent banquet for and Damie?"
"That’s right."
"That’s great," Rachel Shaw said with a heightened voice of joy, "But Damien is now really disappointed in because of that bitch Ivy Sumrs, what if he doesn’t agree?"
"You don’t need to worry about that, your Uncle Lancaster is Damien’s father, he will naturally have ways."
Hearing this, Rachel Shaw smiled happily.
Penelope Page advised her, "Just focus on healing your injuries these days, and once you’ve recovered, be the beautiful bride for Damien. Don’t worry about anything else, no matter what tricks Ivy Sumrs has, your Uncle and Aunt Lancaster will never let her into the house again, and you are the daughter-in-law they have acknowledged."
Rachel Shaw nodded firmly, "I understand, Mom and Dad."
...
Ivy Sumrs was severely injured and spent several days resting in the hospital bed.
Quietly staying in the ward, she pondered over many things.
For example, it’s no longer safe for the children to stay here. Sophie can’t move due to her injuries, but she can’t let Nathan and Leo get hurt again, so she asked Noah Scott to take them back to Yrador.
After taking care of that, Ivy Sumrs t with a renowned lawyer.
After Ivy Sumrs finished speaking, the lawyer shook his head and said directly, "It’s difficult."
"Isn’t there another way? We’ve been separated for a long ti, and he has been with other won these past years, and both families are even planning an engagent."
The lawyer seriously asked Ivy Sumrs, "Do you have evidence of his affair?"
"He goes out with other won every day, renting out venues for fireworks on their birthdays, does that count?"
The lawyer shook his head, "If nothing substantial has happened, it’s hard to determine based on that, especially since the other party is Damien Lancaster."
ntioning that na, even the lawyer was a bit intimidated.
Damien Lancaster, now that’s a big shot.
When Ivy Sumrs first ntioned that na, the lawyer was stunned for several seconds, doubting he had misheard, or perhaps it was a na coincidence.
Only when Ivy Sumrs confird that it was indeed the heir of the Lancaster Family, the renowned CEO of the Lancaster Group, Damien Lancaster, did the lawyer believe it.
But confronting soone like Damien Lancaster, let alone a divorce suit, just one word from him, no law firm in Aethelgard would dare take this case.
Winning the case is simply a fantasy.
The lawyer stood up, politely saying, "Miss Sumrs, you might want to find soone else, I may not be able to help you."
Having said that, the lawyer turned and left.
Ivy Sumrs wanted to call him back, and in her anxiety she twisted her back.
Damn it.
This was the eleventh lawyer she’d t with today.
And upon hearing the na Damien Lancaster, they all responded the sa: won’t take the case, would lose anyway if they did.
Ivy Sumrs irritably ruffled her hair.
She refused to be intimidated by this.
Outside, the lawyer saw Damien Lancaster standing there himself, his terrifying aura made the lawyer’s legs shake, and he quickly made his exit.
The Lancaster Family was not to be ssed with, and Damien Lancaster even less so.
"How many has she seen?" Damien asked coldly.
"The...," Julian Jacobs thought for a second, "Seems like the eleventh."
Damien squinted his dark eyes dangerously, "Let’s see how long she can persist."
Finally, when Ivy Sumrs t with the thirtieth lawyer and got the sa result, she couldn’t hold on any longer.
And at that mont a turn of events occurred.
A familiar face stepped into the hospital room, Diana Dalton.
Gregory Lancaster’s trusted assistant.
In a white won’s suit, looking sharp and capable, Diana Dalton politely addressed Ivy Sumrs, "Miss Sumrs, Mr. Lancaster would like to discuss with you the divorce situation with the young master."
