Chapter 56: The Stones,
The ding of Ivy’s phone woke her up.
“Ouch,” she groaned, stretching on the bed. Her head hurt a little as she opened her
eyes.
She rummaged for her phone on the bed, but instead of finding the phone, she found the dildo instead. She flung it, her eyes fully opened as she abruptly sat up.
Her cheeks warmed as she remembered Silas’s requests last night. It was crazy of him to ask that, and even crazier that if he had pestered much longer, she would have given in.
She would have dipped that human–like tip inside her, just so she could see the look on Silas’s face. She would have, but she didn’t.
“That’s crazy,” she said out loud,
She stood, picked the dildo and placed it safely inside a drawer in her closet.
Out of mind, out of sight.
When she went back to the room, her eyes went to the other gift on the table, the one Monica and the staff had given her.
She unwrapped the gift, feeling very curious. It was a camera! Not just any, but The Blue Laser 2000X Camera!
She was about to tear it off the carton when there was a knock on her door, She dropped it in the bed and walked over.
“It’s Monica,” Monica said from the other side.
Ivy opened the door and hugged Monica the instant she entered. “Thank you so much!”
Monica returned the hug. “You’re welcome.”
“How did you know I would love it?” Ivy asked as she pulled away.
Monica’s cheeks flushed as she smiled. “Mr Stone told me about it the first day he spoke about you.”
“And you remembered?” Ivy asked, moving to the bed.
“I did,” Monica nodded. “Do you like it?”
“I love it!” she exclaimed, feeling the excitement in her veins.
Monica giggled, visibly pleased.
Ivy held the carton in admiration successfully unlocked
something that reminded of
her passion. The last person that sought hela Coma was Cheryl, and it had felt good then as well.
“Let’s get you ready for the day. Congratulations again, Monica said, pulling her out of

her thoughts.
“Yes, yes,” Ivy cheered, dropping the camera on the bed.
While Monica helped her pick her outfit, she went to take a shower. Soon, she was dressed in a purple gown and ready for the day.
When Ivy was descending the stairs, she saw Silas walk pass, holding his phone in his hand. He seemed busy, and she didn’t want to distract him so she let him leave,
She made her way to the dining room and was surprised to see Aria and Theresa already awake. Andrew was sipping his coffee when she walked in.
“You guys woke up early,” Ivy said as she entered.
“I said the same thing,” Andrew commented.
“Yes,” Theresa said. “Good morning. How was your first night as Mrs Stone?”
Ivy remembered the night and smiled. “Good,” she replied as she picked the seat in between Aria and Theresa. “Just having a headache.”
“Hangover,” Aria said.
“Nothing a cup of coffee can’t fix,” Andrew said. He got up, poured coffee into a mug and threw two cubes of sugar.
“Thank you,” Ivy said.
“You’re welcome,” he smiled.
“Such a gentleman,” Aria teased.
“No wonder he has so many women around him,” Theresa laughed.
“More like can’t keep one woman,” Aria chimed in.
“At least, my dates all stay the night,” Andrew smirked. “Where’s yours?”
“He’s not as jobless as your flings,” Aria shot back.
Ivy sipped her coffee as she listened to the twins banter each other. The bitterness of the coffee found its way to her head, melting away the hangover, and slowly bringing her back to life. She added one more cube for sweetness and leaned in her chair.
Theresa turned to her. “Have you seen Silas?”
“No, not yet,” Ivy replied.
“He just left,” Theresa said, adding a cube of sugar to her cup as well.
Ivy’s mind wandered to Rosie and her yesterday’s statement. “Have you seen Rosie?”
“No,” Theresa replied.
“She wouldn’t dare sit with us if her husband wasn’t here,” Andrew added.
Ivy was curious. “But why?”
“She thinks she’s so special, Aria huffed. “She doesn’t mingle with us.”

Ivy bit her lip, stunned by what she was hearing. Basis had complained about the Stones, and now they were doing the same?
“She keeps regarding herself as an in–law? Theresa said: “We wanted
a friend–a sister–but she won’t let us”
Ivy nodded. She knew what this was about It was a simple misunderstanding between both parties. “Maybe she’s going through a lot and to finding it hart with you guys.”
“What do you mean by that?” Aria asked.
“Do you know something we don’t?” Andrew added. leaning farzand
“Well, Ivy started, her cheeks heating up. “I knew she recently had a missamage “Wow!” Theresa exclaimed.
“We didn’t know.” the twins said in unison.
Before anybody else could speak, the door opened and Rosie walked in. Her eyes looked a bit sleepy, but she was smiling.
“Hey guys,” Rosie said.
“Oh, Rosie,” Aria said, standing and giving her a hug
“What’s going on?” Rosie asked, confusion evident in her voice
“I’m sorry about the miscarriage, we didn’t know” Theresa said reaching out to hug
her as well.
Rosie stood still as the ladies consoled her. Her eyes shone as she sat down “How did
you know?”
“Ivy told us,” Aria answered.
“I’m so sorry for your loss,” Ivy said, leaning in and squeezing Rosie’s hand
“Thank you,” Rosie said with a smile.
“You need food.” Theresa said. “How long before these ladies give us our food?”
“I’ll go check up on them.” Ivy said, standing up
“I’ll go with you,” Rosie offered, standing up as well.
“Be quick. I’m starving.” Andrew groaned as they left the room
The moment they reached the hallway. Rosie pulled Ivy dragging her aggressively to the balcony.
“You bitch!” Rosie yelled, pushing Ivy on the floor
Ivy fell hard on her butt. But it wasn’t the push that surprised her it was Rosie’s
attitude.
“Why wouldn’t you just shut your fucking mouth!” Rosie roared her eyes brow with

“It was not your place to tell them! It’s not your paint Rosie shrouted.
“I’m sorry,” Ivy grumbled.
“Mind your business!” she snapped and stormed out
Ivy held her stomach until the pain subsided. She couldn’t even be mad RosEE WEBS right, it was not her business, and she deserved this.
After some seconds passed, she held the balcony tailings for support as she stood up She pressed her stomach and took a slow breath. When she knew she was it to weak she left the balcony.
She was barely out when she saw Silas walking down the hallway. He hurried towards her
“Are you okay?” Silas asked.
“I’m fine, 1 injured myself,” she lied. There was no point telling Silas the truth.
“Should I call a doctor?” His voice rose with concern.
“No. I’m fine,” she replied, straightening up. Then she noticed the look on his face. Something was off. “What happened?”
“Nothing,” he lied,
“Tell me, she insisted,
Silas sighed, a pitiful look on his face. “Are you sure?”
Her heart sank, but she nodded,
He held her hand, as if trying to brace her for the truth. “An article was published yesterday. Your father has publicly disowned you.”
