Chapter 1858
“Ivy’s a big girl now, she can pick herself up even after a fall, Cory spoke seriously. You smothering her like this, it’s
gonna make her soft. And that’s no good” Cory used to be like this too.
He would get all wound up over any little thing concerning Ivy, but after Ivy started school, she’s gone from crying
for help at even the slightest problem to being a quick leader in her little groups. Even with a badly injured arm, she
won’t shed a tear as long as it doesn’t hurt.
When she declared she would be top of her class, she studied her butt off and, in the end, she really did come out
on top.
His sister Ivy, just as he said, has become a tough little girl.
And that’s a good thing. He hopes Ivy can stay tough and strong
Wayne was somewhat taken aback by Cory’s stern lecture.
He instinctively looked at Rosalynn.

Wayne then turned to Cory
“I got it,” he squeezed Cory’s arm, “I’ll do my best to hold back, to not overprotect you guys.”
“Good”
Satisfied with the answer, the starving Cory slowly walked towards the dining room,
Rosalynn handed Wayne his cane.
Wayne stood up, somewhat resigned, “Cory probably thinks I’ve let Ivy down.”
“How could that be?” Rosalynn hooked her arm through his, “Cory’s just sharing his experience with Ivy with you.
Since she was born, she’s been with Cory because I was so busy with work. She depended on him a lot, and Cory
doted on her.”
Wayne listened quietly
“As you’ve seen, Cory’s always gentle. The few times he’s argued with me were all for lvy. Even Granny Hilania
couldn’t reprimand his sister Ivy. Later, when we returned to H Country, back to you they started school, and Cory
saw tvy’s independent side after she left him. It took some getting used to, but Cory’s good at not being stubborn.
He saw Ivy’s growth and changes.”
Rosalynn looked at Wayne, “He realized that overprotecting isn’t right. Ivy needs to grow on her own, not live under
her family’s protection.”
“Tunderstand,” Wayne nodded.
Tears welled up in Rosalynn’s eyes, “Talking about it, it’s sad to realize how fast our children are growing”
“Isn’t that a good thing?” Wayne wrapped his arm around Rosalynn’s waist
“You’re right, once the kiddos are grown, we can have our own world!”
Rosalynn smiled at Wayne, and Wayne smiled back at her
These are the best of times.
Suddenly, the sound of dripping water filled with a damp smell echoed in Wayne’s ear
Wayne’s hand gripping the cane unconsciously tightened.
But that strange feeling disappeared the next second.

They originally planned to take a family walk to digest the meal,
But then Rosalynn got a sudden call from Jered Ventures for an emergency meeting
They planned to let Jaime and Wayne take the kids for the walk
But when Rosalynn couldn’t go, Wayne instantly decided not to go either
Jaime didn’t mind, he couldn’t have as much fun with the kids if Wayne was there anyways, so, Jaime took the kids
and the dog and happily set off Wayne didn’t disturb Rosalynn’s work
