Ivy understood how her mother felt. "Oh. You will tell me about that ahead of time, right?" "Of course. Be safe over there," Avery said. "I will. Don't worry, Mom!" Ivy said. "Alright." After the call, Avery stepped out of the bathroom. It was late at night in Aryadelle, and Avery had stepped into the bathroom to take Ivy's call. She walked over to Elliot, who was asleep, and tapped him on the shoulder, worriedly. "Honey, wake up," Avery switched on the bedside lamp, "Ivy just called, and she told me that she will be staying there for a while." Elliot immediately opened his eyes and sat up. "Ivy won't come back?" "No... She won't come back, for now. She said she'll return when Hayden gets married. She realized that she has feelings for that Lucas guy," Avery explained. Elliot furrowed his brows. "Why did she suddenly change her mind? Did that guy do something to our daughter?" "Don't jump to conclusions! It's definitely not what you're thinking. Ivy said she foun

Ivy blushed. "No, that won't happen. If he truly falls in love with me, I will take him with me." Caspian's face twisted. "Hey! If that's the case, I need to watch out for you! I never thought you had such ambitious plans to lure away our company's boss!" "You should have more confidence in him. Do you think he's the type to be swayed by love?" Taking a deep breath, Caspian said, "Fine! He's not the type. He is not someone who easily falls in love, so good luck! If you can get him to go with you, I'll accept defeat! You both can take me along!" Ivy could not help but chuckle, "Caspian, your family is wealthy, so why are you following Lucas?" "Who told you we're wealthy?" Caspian asked. "You did! You said you invested in this company." "That doesn't mean I'm rich! I got the money upon my father's death." Ivy stared at him in shock. "After my father died, my mother passed away too. I was alone and bored, so I joined forces with Lucas," said Caspian. "I'm sorry to hea

Ivy could not stop her brother from doing anything nor could she reveal the truth to Lucas, so all she could do was think of a solution as the situation unfolded. The next day, Archer and Ivy arrived at the company together. Archer was terribly bored, so he had had a talk with Ivy last night and asked her to bring him with her to work at Night Technologies. When Caspian saw Archer, his eyebrows rose. Ivy introduced them and said, "Caspian, this is my cousin. He comes from a wealthy family, and he's here in Taronia to experience ordinary life with me. Can you let him stay at the company? If there's anything he can do, you can assign him tasks, and he doesn't need to be paid a salary." Caspian paused for a moment. Archer smiled at him. "Hey, Caspian. You can take this casually. I can do any physical work, but I'm not so good at brainy stuff." Caspian realized that Ivy's wealthy cousin was physically fit but not intellectually inclined; he seemed like the type to bully other

In her mind, Ivy could not help but wonder if her older brother had purposely sent a beautiful woman to test Lucas. After Ms. Feake shook hands with Lucas, they both sat down on the sofa. Ivy took out her phone and sent a message to her sister: [Layla, Hayden intentionally sent an incredibly stunning beauty here. Even I, as a woman, am captivated. He's being so ruthless!] Layla replied with a laughing emoji. [Hahaha! Take a picture and show me! Let's see how beautiful she is!] Ivy raised her phone, ready to snap a picture of Ms. Feake. Just then, Caspian walked up to Ivy and said, "Ivy, go and get a glass of water for Ms. Feake." Ivy immediately put away her phone and asked Ms. Feake, "What would you like to drink, Ms. Feake?" Caspian was a bit surprised. "Do we have anything other than water to offer in the office?" "I bought some floral tea and premium honey! Caspian, would you like to try some?" Caspian responded, "Let's serve the clients first!" "Okay..." Ivy turn

Caspian was quick to respond, "She's Lucas' assistant." "Oh! An assistant making decisions for the boss? Mr. Woods must really dote on his employees," Ms. Feake said. Caspian burst into laughter. "It's not quite like that. They knew each other before she began working here, so their relationship doesn't follow the typical boss-employee dynamic." Ms. Feake chuckled. "I see! Mr. Woods, we're not particularly interested in your privacy. We asked you to fill out this form because we want to understand you better. After all, we haven't had any prior contact. As long as you answer these questions truthfully, and there aren't any major issues, we can proceed with the transference of the investment funds." Caspian found her request quite reasonable and continued trying to persuade Lucas. "Why don't I fill it out for you? I know you quite well." Ms. Feake interjected, "Sorry, that won't work! Each question needs to be answered by Mr. Woods himself for accuracy. My father places great
