Chapter 766: Chapter 465: Is This Her Lover? (2)
"Do I need to report to you? Who exactly are you to me?"
Robert Weston frowned, "Why are you still so headstrong? Can’t you see I’m concerned about you?"
Ivy was speechless, "I just want to tell you, thank you for your concern, but I don’t need it.
For a married woman, you seem to be overly involved."
Seeing Ivy’s attitude, Robert Weston was somewhat helpless, "Ivy, are the Xu family forcing you to work here?
You could easily stay at home and be a Young Madam, why run here and suffer."
"Robert Weston, is the road your property? Why meddle so much?
Let me tell you, don’t think my agreeing to let you sit here is a favor.
The reason I agreed for you to sit down is to warn you.
In the company, no one knows I’m the CEO’s daughter-in-law.
I hope you won’t spread it around."
"Hah, you’re doing a secret inspection? Is it necessary?"
"Whether it’s necessary is my business, and I hope from now on when we meet in the company you can act as if you don’t know me.
We’re no longer in the same world, let’s avoid each other if possible."
"What, worried I’ll affect your life among the rich?"
Ivy sneered coldly, look at his demeanor, compared to her uncle, there’s a world of difference.
Was she insane back then, how did she ever fall for such a man.
No wonder her father always said she had poor judgment, now it really seems so.
It’s not poor judgment, it’s being blind.
"That’s right, getting involved with someone like you is bound to bring trouble, and I’m afraid you’ll affect my life among the rich, is that wrong?" Ivy said, standing up and picking up her plate, "I’ve said what needed to be said, goodbye."
"Ivy."
Robert suddenly called her, standing up to block her path.
Ivy raised an eyebrow, defiantly looking at him, "Brother Robert, anything more to teach?"
"Ivy, I admit I wronged you in the past, but that’s all behind us, can we shake hands and make peace?
We’ll be working in the same company now, constantly crossing paths, we can’t really act like strangers.
Besides, your status is quite unusual now, I might depend on you for promotion in the future."
Ivy smirked disdainfully, "Sorry, I’m holding a plate, can’t shake hands to make peace.
Seems like even fate is reminding me, never to get close to a man who once hurt me.
Also, Brother Robert, asking me for help was a huge mistake.
Haven’t you realized? I can’t wait for you to leave the company."
She snorted coldly and left, Robert turned to watch Ivy’s departing silhouette.
He frowned, if it wasn’t for their breakup, how could she become the Young Lady of Twilight Group.
This ungrateful woman is really infuriating.
As Ivy just exited the restaurant, Jack Jude quickly caught up.
"Ivy, Ivy."
Ivy looked at him, "Jack, you’re done eating too."
"Yeah, I eat quickly, but it seems like you didn’t finish."
Ivy shrugged, "I don’t eat much, small appetite."
"That man, is he really your ex-boyfriend?"
Ivy smiled at him, "Yeah, we just broke up this year, a fresh ex-boyfriend."
Jack nodded, but with a smile on his face, seems she’s single...
"That man is really clueless, don’t be upset, such a good girl like you deserves a better man to cherish."
"Of course," Ivy nodded, thinking her uncle is way better than Robert Weston.
"Though he looks quite handsome, why did you two break up?"
"Hmm... how to put it, maybe we weren’t meant to be.
We didn’t meet each other at the right time.
I longed for marriage, but he was focused on his future career.
So he dumped me for a better support."
"Became a pretty boy?" Jack seemed quite perceptive.
Ivy chuckled, pretty boy indeed suits that scumbag.
"Enough about me, Jack, can I ask you something?"
"Sure, go ahead."
"That Team Leader Liu, it’s said she has backing in the company, that’s why she’s so arrogant.
Who exactly is backing her, to make her so formidable?"
Jack smiled, "No one really knows.
But I’ve vaguely heard from rumors, she seems to be someone’s mistress among the higher-ups in our company.
