Chapter 132 A Ceo Dinsemd Cry
Chapter 132: A Ceo Doesn’t Cry,
“What the hell?!” Ivy gasped as pain shot through her bones.
Silas turned to face her, shock in his eyes, but Kim had her hands around his neck, holding him down so he couldn’t stand “Ivy! Wait!” Silas shouted, his voice filled with disbelief
But the mischief in Kim’s eyes and the smirk on her lips pushed by out the door. She ran downstairs, ignoring the heels the had on
Tears welled up in the corners of her eyes, heart pounding with pain. She couldn’t believe that Salas would do this after everything
She dashed towards the hall, away from all the guests. She couldn’t have someone see her looking like this. But as she turned towards the hallway, she heard her name.
“Ivy!”
She turned to the voice and realized it was Aunt May. “Hey” she said, trying to keep the pain away from her voice. “Congratulations, my sweet–what’s wrong?” May asked, her voice filled with concern as she came closer
Ivy pinched herself to stop her tears from falling. What was she supposed to tell her aunt? That on a very important day of hers, she found Silas kissing his ex after making sweet love to her yesterday?
Of course not.
So she swallowed and plastered a smile on her face. “Nothing, Aunt May. I’m just very excited about everything”
“Oh, my girl,” May said, pulling Ivy in for a hug. “You deserve it, congratulations.”
Ivy rested in her aunt’s arms; the familiar comfort surged through her body. Ivy tried to control the emotions building up in her chest, but she couldn’t, and so the tears fell.
“Oh, Ivy.” May’s voice was soft as she ran her hand through Ivy’s back, consoling her.
Ivy cried in her aunt’s arms for a little longer.
“Ivy, dear, is there more? Is everything alright?”
“Yes,” Ivy lied as she straightened up. “I’m just… tired is all. I… it took a long time to get here.”
“And look at you now,” May said, her voice swelling with pride as she brought out a handkerchief from her bag and gave it to Ivy. “I’m so proud of you.”
Ivy laughed through her tears, as she wiped her eyes. “Thank you, aunt May.”
“Come on, wipe those tears. A CEO doesn’t cry,” May teased.
Ivy laughed deeply, her tension fading. “Thank you for reminding me.”
“You’re a badass, never forget that, Ivy, May said, giving her another hug. “Thank you,” Ivy smiled. “I hope you enjoyed the party?”
“Oh I did. The food was great!” May cheered. “Rita sent her greetings.”
“How’s she and Ryan doing? Sorry I haven’t come to see you guys.”
“They are good,” May said with a warm smile. “We understand how busy you’ve been.”
“Why didn’t Rita come? It would have been nice to see her,” Ivy said, her brow creasing with concern.
“Well, you know…” May’s voice softened. “We saw that Theresa… would be here, and she didn’t want to ruin the day.”
Ivy sighed, fiddling with the handkerchief. “I wish things weren’t so complicated.”
May reached for Ivy’s hand and gave her a squeeze. “They both need time, I’m sure it will happen soon.”
Ivy nodded, releasing a tight smile. She didn’t want to imagine how both women must be feeling and judging by Theresa’s recent behavior, she could bet Rita was the same or even worse.
From the corner of her eyes, Ivy saw Rosie slip off in the other direction. The emotions she had forgotten surge through her, with anger leading.
She turned to her aunt, but her eyes were still towards Rosie directive Aunt May… Can I catch up with you later?”
Successfully unlocked! “Sure, I’m still around.”
“Alright then. Enjoy the party,” Ivy smiled at her, looking at her briefly before proceeding towards the direction Rosie took. Quickly, she walked, hoping to catch up with Rosie. Just as she turned towards the corner, Ivy saw Rosie pushed open a
door.

by binked at the fronesty on Rose’s face. She had to be a pretty good actress to pull off that look or she was simply deling the truth
“Where did you see he? Which room? I can’t have her here. Thomas would kill me
The fight in Rose’s eyes got to lay and without thinking, she touched Rosie’s hand. Her heart fluttered with conocem, yet curiosity nagged at her
“What happened? She is your friend, right??
Used to be Rose sad sadly. “Until i found out she’s a liar and a con artist”
vy binked rapidly, trying to process and understand everything. “I’m confused”
Rosle sighed and looked at lvy’s eyes. There, vy saw hestation. “Kim lied about the accidents”
All the time she was in Sibas’s house, all the hospital visits I did, all the casts and bruises, they were all lies; Rosie said amaliy
lvy narrowed her eyes in disbelief, studying Rosie, waiting for her to admit it was a joke.
But Rosie didn’t, instead her shoulders slumped. “I was such a fool to believe her. I was so stupid to try and get her back together with Silas after everything. I’m sorry, Ivy. You have every right not to include me in your photoshoot.”
“Oh vy whispered, quit racing through her “I didn’t know all that. I am the one who’s sorry”
Rosie bit her lip and nodded. “So much for friendship; she said, her voice cracking with emotion, her eyes shining with
sadness
The guilt tightened in try’s chest as her cheeks turned pink.

by nodded. “I saw them upstairs, in the first room.”
Rosle smiled, it was the first time Ivy was seeing her genuine smile. “Thank you. Once I take care of this, we’ll talk.”
“Sure, Ivy smiled as well, watching as Rosie left
Barely a moment later, just as she was about to process the whole situation, she heard shuffling of feet.
She turned, scared that she wasn’t alone.
“iry”
She gasped, stiffened with shock as Dylan folded his arms, standing across from her.
The smirk on his lips got to her and anger replaced the shock. “What are you doing here?”

“Congratulations on your company,” Dylan replied instead, purposely avoiding her question.
“How did you get here?” Ivy asked, moving back cautiously.
She didn’t trust this man, and his attitude made it even harder not to.
“I always have my way,” he chuckled confidently. Then his brow furrowed. “Why are you moving away? Are you afraid of me?”
“You wish,” she said firmly. “What happened the last time is definitely not happening again.”
Dylan laughed, tapping his stomach and stomping his feet. She listened to the ugly sound, her senses sharp incase he tried to play smart.
Dylan’s eyes travelled somewhere behind her briefly before they shone with mischief.
“Did you tell your husband about it?”
“Tell me what?”
Ivy turned toward Silas, her eyes widening. There was no mistaking the ice in his tone. “That I kissed her,” Dylan uttered, visibly proud of his statement. “On your wedding day.” Ivy clenched her fist, shutting her eyes to the dread in her stomach.
