Chapter 737: Chapter 437: At Odds with the Ex-boyfriend
"Hey guys, it’s been a while," she greeted everyone with a charming smile and a wave.
One of the guys handed her a drink, "Hasn’t it been ages, Ivy? You weren’t very fair, you know, such a big event as your wedding and you didn’t invite us to the party."
Ivy Miller grinned, "Oh, come on, it wasn’t that I didn’t invite you. We’ve registered but haven’t had the ceremony yet.
What’s the rush, really? Don’t worry, I won’t let your contribution go to waste."
"Oh, so all along you were just thinking about our cash gifts."
Ivy gave a mischievous smile, "Of course, what else did you think you guys were good for?"
Mila Hughes whispered in her ear, "That guy’s been watching you, well played."
Ivy Miller felt a bit proud. Naturally, she had to put on a good show.
Robert Weston approached her, raising his glass, "Ivy, you’ve slimmed down quite a bit."
Ivy Miller looked herself over, "Have I? It must be because I’m missing my husband.
I haven’t seen him for two months. He’s in the military, protecting the country and its people, very busy."
Robert Weston chuckled, seemingly with a hint of sarcasm at the corners of his mouth.
Ivy Miller was annoyed, "Your smile is really irritating, Robert. Do you look down on my husband?"
"Ivy, you really shouldn’t have rushed into a marriage just because you were heartbroken.
A military wife... you’re not suited for that role.
Your husband hasn’t been able to visit you even once in two months, doesn’t that make you feel neglected?
We’re all good friends here, so I’m not afraid you’ll misunderstand me.
I’m just saying this for your own good."
"Oh, so should I thank you for your good intentions?" Ivy smiled slyly.
"Compared to someone like you who only chooses to marry wealthy women, I’d still rather choose love.
My husband and I fell in love at first sight, from the first moment I saw him, I knew.
The initial feeling was strange, I just felt like he was the one.
And in fact, my husband, whether in his attitude towards life or as a person, he’s very focused.
Compared to those scumbags I used to encounter, he’s in a completely different league.
It’s unbelievable that I managed to put up with such low-grade men in the past.
Now I kind of admire the courage of my past self."
Robert Weston sneered disdainfully, "Go on, you’re always one for putting on a brave front."
Ivy shrugged, "Putting on a brave front? That’s hilarious. What do I have to prove in front of my good friends?
Isn’t it you, Robert, who just likes to act tough around people you are close to?
Don’t use your own mindset to judge others, that’s your flaw."
Mila Hughes gave her a thumbs up, "Well said. Robert, honestly, I think you’ve been quite unkind in many ways, and when my brothers hang out with you, I worry you’ll lead them astray."
Robert Weston waved his hand, "Alright, alright, this has nothing to do with you."
"Do you think you’re the only one here to attend the party, just looking for trouble?"
Mila Hughes wasn’t easy to mess with either. Overall, the four women in their dorm were all firebrands.
While Ivy was secretly laughing, Mila nudged her, "Hey, hey, hey, look, Amy’s here, and she’s with a handsome guy."
Ivy curiously turned her head and, seeing the man’s face, she just wanted to find a hole to crawl into.
