Chapter 2551
“Is she going to just sit in this hospital room until Balfour shows up? How bizarre,” Ivy
muttered to herself.
As she washed her hands, she heard the restroom door open and someone else come in.
Glancing up, her eyes widened in shock. “What are you doing here?”
Clara’s smirk was laced with malice. “Is this hospital your private property or something?
If you can be here, why can’t I?”
Ivy’s brow furrowed deeply at the sight of her so-called “sister,” and her mood instantly
soured.
She turned off the tap, intending to walk past her, but Clara stepped in the way, blocking
her path.
“Is that any way to greet your sister? Can’t even say hello when you see me? Imagine
what your fans would think if they saw this. Your perfect image would shatter to pieces
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtonline.” Ivy gave her a sidelong glance and let out a cold laugh. “Sister? Sorry, but I
stopped having -family a long time ago, and I certainly don’t have a sister. My fans know
that very well.
have no clue where you crawled out from.”
“Heh, still playing the tough girl, I see. Without Balfour, where would you get the nerve to
stand up to me like this? The only difference between us is that you snagged a wealthy
patron. Let’s just hope you can keep up the act in this fickle world.”
Ivy paused mid-step and sighed deeply. Despite being branded as someone who only got
ahead because of the Howard Group since being with Balfour, she had chosen this path
and was determined to see it through.
But what right did Clara have to judge her?
Not wanting to waste another moment with Clara, Ivy tried to leave, but suddenly, an arm
reached out from behind, clamping tightly over her mouth.
Clara pressed a cloth soaked in some chemical over Ivy’s nose and mouth. After a brief
struggle and some muffled groans, Ivy’s world faded to black.
Clara admired the limp form of Ivy on the floor, a twisted sense of satisfaction filling her as
she contemplated Ivy’s helpless state.
“Oh, Ivy, always thought you were untouchable, didn’t you? Never saw this coming, huh?
Just wait. When you come to, I’m going to make sure you’re living a nightmare, just to give
you a taste of what I’ve been through.”
She hoisted Ivy onto a hospital bed and then slipped into a nondescript orderly’s uniform
before shooting off a text to Mara.

Mara finally relaxed when she got the message. She had worried that Clara, clumsy as she
was, might botch the job. But hatred, it seemed, could drive a person to accomplish the
extraordinary.
After reading the message, Mara purged all traces of the conversation from her phone.
She had to stay composed for the performance she would put on for Balfour.
Meanwhile, Ivy was wheeled along the path typically used by orderlies for routine tasks
like changing linens or transporting those who had passed on. The only obstacle remaining
was the hospital’s main entrance.
Balfour arrived at the hospital just as this peculiar orderly crossed his path. He glanced at
the bed, feeling something was off, but the fleeting moment failed to raise any real alarm.
Upon reaching his grandmother’s room and finding only Mara, with no sign of Ivy, his
concern ‘spiked.
“Where’s Ivy?” he asked immediately.
Mára rose from her seat, gesturing for him to step outside, not wanting to disturb Alyssa.
