Chapter 330
When Ivy entered the house, Cory was reading on the couch. Usually at this time, he’d be in the study.
Seeing Ivy come back, he only lifted his eyelids, waiting for Ivy to call him, and then come over like a
little bird chirping about the fun
stuff she did with her uncle.
But to his surprise, Ivy didn’t even lift her head and look in the living room. She went straight upstairs
like a wandering soul.
Cory hesitated for a moment, then followed her.
Ivy went back to her room, burying her head directly into her pillow.
Cory stood at the door looking around, walked in, and sat down next to her, “Did someone mess with
you?”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtIvy didn’t say a word.
This was the first time Cory had seen her like this.
He reached out and nudged Ivy, “Were you bullied?”
Ivy squirmed a bit, sat up, her tear–swollen eyes still filled with tears, “Brother…”
Her voice was full of sobbing.
Cory panicked, thinking she really had been bullied. Of course, it had to be that no–good–looking guy!!
“Why don’t we have a dad?” Ivy choked out the question.
Cory froze.
“I want a dad.” Ivy’s lips twitched, and tears rolled down her cheeks.
Being with Handasome Mister felt different than being with Uncle Calvin and the others. She felt very
safe, very secure, as if she’s not afraid of anything.
“Be good, Ivy, just tell me, but don’t tell mommy, it will make her sad,” Cory clumsily hugged his sister,
gently patting her back.
At the door, Rosalynn stood stiffly.
“Where did our dad go?” Ivy cried out the question.
Cory lowered his eyelids, covering the coldness in his eyes.
“It doesn’t matter where he went, he doesn’t want us anymore. Since he doesn’t want us, you shouldn’t
shed tears for such a person.” Ivy didn’t say anything, and cried even more sadly.
Rosalynn couldn’t bring herself to push open the door, walking xo.com fast updatedownstairs in
despair.
Paige hadn’t gone home yet, drinking in the wine cellar.
Rosalynn pushed open the door to the cellar, and both of them were startled by the sudden entrance.
“You didn’t go back?” Rosalynn asked in surprise.
“You went to pick up Ivy?” Paige continued sitting on the couch. There was already an empty bottle of
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmred wine on the coffee table across from her, and another one was only half full.
“Yeah.” Rosalynn sat down across from her. “You drink so much during the day?”
Paige leaned back on the couch, staring at the crystal chandelier on the ceiling of the wine cellar.
“This lamp was from when Logan and I went abroad,” Paige mumbled, “Looking at it now, it’s so
ostentatious and useless.”
“You and Logan went abroad together? When did that happen?” Rosalynn was a little taken aback.
“I forgot.” Paige shook her head, “You’re still worried that Wayne will recognize Ivy, huh?”
“Not…” Rosalynn poured herself a glass, “I just suddenly feel that maybe I never paid enough attention
to Cory and Ivy. I always thought they never thought about their dad. Turns out… Ivy cried all the way
home just now, and she said in her room with her brother that she misses her dad.”
‘The kiddo, has she ever seen her dad? You can’t miss someone that’s never in your life to begin with.”
Paige drank too much, slurning
her words.
Rosalynri didn’t say anything, and quietly took a sip of wine.
