Chapter 323
But before she could speak, she heard Wayne say, “Doesn’t Ivy need to ask her daddy and mommy?”
Laura’s face changed.
The young miss didn’t have a father, so no one would mention ‘dad‘ in front of her.
“Ivy’s mom is really cool. She won’t say no!”
Ivy held her head up high, very proud of herself.
However…
“No way.” Rosalynn listened and decisively rejected Ivy’s request without any hesitation.
Ivy’s eyes widened, utterly astonished.
“Why… why not?” she asked, puzzled. “That gentleman bought Ivy’s painting, helped Ivy so I can help
more people, he’s a good guy! Ivy wants to treat him to a nice meal…”

Should she tell Rosalynn the truth? That the gentleman was Ivy’s “Handsome Mister“?
“Sweetie, he’s on a date with someone he likes right now. If you invite him to lunch, wouldn’t that ruin
their date?” Rosalynn crouched beside Ivy, suppressing her inner anxiety and patiently trying to
convince her.

lovers do.

“Laura, refuse their offer.” Rosalynn looked at Laura..
“No!” Ivy looked up, surprisingly determined. “Ivy wants to go tell them herself!”
She had some hesitations too. What an embarrassing situation, as she was just so confident!
The mother and daughter stared at each other for a moment before Rosalynn conceded.
“Fine, go yourself.” As she spoke, she turned her eyes to Laura. “After rejecting the gentleman, take
the young miss straight to the garage.”
Ivy hung her head again and, without holding Laura’s hand, dragged herself towards Wayne with a
broken heart..
Rosalynn looked on, with a bitter feeling in her heart.
Who would have thought that Ivy would be so fond of Wayne after just one meeting? Was this the
rumored attraction of blood ties? But… What was so attractive about the man who almost killed her?
Thinking of that incident, Rosalynn’s heart instantly hardened.
“Cory, let’s go home.” Rosalynn turned and walked toward Cory, putting away his game console.
“Mommy, this isn’t really fair.”

Rosalynn stared at him in disbelief.
“Ivy is unhappy.” Cory looked at her, the depths of his eyes indifferent, but his words carried a hint of
blame.
Rosalynn crouched down in front of him. She spoke to him earnestly. “Son, not everything in this world
can be decided based on whether your sister is happy or not.”
Cory and Rosalynn locked eyes for a moment, then he looked away and remained silent.
Rosalynn felt somewhat helpless. To avoid the possibility of bumping into Wayne, she quickly took Cory
to the garage.
After getting on the nanny car, she started waiting for Ivy. But they waited for a while, and Ivy never
