Chapter 192
Chapter 192
In the beginning, Ivy was with that man. He was aware of her struggles, pain, deep affection, perseverance, and never-ending efforts solely for that man. He knew she’d be successful in her love because she deserves everyone’s attention. “It’s a shame...” “The person I like is also dead,” Thor sighed. Ivy lowered her gaze in contemplation. Wyatt Reed was no longer the man she had been in love with. Wyatt Reed had been dead for a long time in her eyes. Her state of mind was completely different when she returned to the location where it all began after some twists and turns. Wyatt Reed, the “dead,” sneezed in the chateau. The servants in the chateau were immediately on high alert. Ivy and Thor exchanged silent glances. Thor’s eyes suddenly sparkled. “Oh! Please allow me to introduce you to my first student, who is still single!” Ivy’s face was expressionless. “That isn’t required.” “He’s arrived!” “How quickly?” Thor excitedly waved his hand in Ivy’s direction. Ivy turned around in a tense mood. Her body stiffened, and her eyes almost popped out of their sockets when she saw the man. “Mr. Seely?!” Marco Seely, the well-dressed gentleman, walked over. Marco, too, was taken aback when he saw Ivy. He quickly regained his composure and calmness, however. “What brings you here, Ms. Morgan?” he inquired; his face expressionless. “You guys know each other?” Thor was even more taken aback.
Ivy and Marco both nodded. Thor couldn’t stop shaking his head. “Then this is true fate! You two are a perfect match!” For a brief moment, the two of them froze awkwardly. Ivy scowled. “Don’t be a jerk. We merely conduct business with one another.” She was being truthful. Thor nodded in agreement. “Right… I almost forgot that my only two students are both hotshots and Forbes list regulars, so you’ll have some connection.” Marco laughed. “Wait, two students? Ms. Morgan is the other one?” Ivy was even more taken aback. She was struggling to keep a straight face. ‘Wait, what kind of small world is this?’ Professor Thor, the genius, always kept his students’ identities hidden so that no one could find out any details, including each other’s. Thor gestured to Ivy. “That’s right, that’s her.” Marco’s eyes glowed with excitement. “Thor, I didn’t think you’d accept another student with your temperament. It’s a strange coincidence that it’s also Ms. Morgan.” Ivy stifled a helpless laugh. “What a coincidence!” Thor smiled as he pointed to Marco and explained, “He’s two years older than me and became my student after losing to me in an international hacker’s league.” “She’s my student because she won me in the European International Tournament,” he said, pointing to Ivy. Marco’s grin widened. “Do you have an interest in this, Ms. Morgan?” Ivy was a capable businesswoman who came from a wealthy family. Marco was surprised to learn that Ivy knew how to code. Ivy cocked her brow. “It’s just a relic from the past.” Marco did not enquire any further. Thor sat there, assessing the two of them. His gaze flitted a little. “You two are destined to be
together. You must capitalize on this opportunity!” Ivy sighed and rolled her eyes. She smiled at Marco and changed the subject. “What happened to Pierce?” “Well, he’s been afraid of seeing teachers lately,” Marco explained. Ivy nodded in agreement. Bill stood guard outside, keeping an eye on what was inside. Even though he had been professionally trained to keep a poker face, he was surprised to see Marco there. Jimmy panted as she ran over with two cups of ice cream. “Take one, Bill! I’ll eat the strawberry while you have the chocolate.” Bill remained motionless, like a boulder. Jimmy insisted on running circles around Bill. “Eat it! Ms. Morgan will be unable to appear for some time. Girls have so much to say to each other!” Bill remained unemotional. Jimmy simply ate a large bite in front of Bill to pique his appetite. “Wow! It’s tasty...” Bill cast a cold glance at Jimmy before returning to the glass panel not far away. He could see the three people sitting there, happy and laughing, through the glass panel. Jimmy sucked her ice cream and subconsciously followed Bill’s gaze. His expression changed dramatically. Jimmy’s hands trembled unconsciously, causing the two cups of ice cream he was holding to fall to the ground. ‘Men? Why are there men over there?! Wait… Is that Marco Seely sitting next to Ivy?’ Jimmy simply felt as if he had been struck by lightning on a clear day. “No! That cannot be true!” Bill gave Jimmy a disgusted look because she was littering on the ground. Jimmy took two careless steps forward, pointing at the glass with a ghastly pale face. ‘How?! When did Mr. Seely arrive? Who is that man standing next to Ms. Morgan?! Why did two
men appear out of nowhere while I was away? This is a disaster! Oh, my goodness!’ Wyatt would most likely kill Jimmy if he discovered that he had neglected his responsibilities. Jimmy couldn’t bear the thought of Wyatt’s reaction if he found out. He shivered and looked at Bill. He appeared to be about to cry. “Tell me...” Bill gave Jimmy a dismissive look. “No one has ever entered. Mr. Seely was already there.” ‘Mr. Seely arrived before Ms. Morgan?!’ Jimmy couldn’t help but stare up at the sky. The gloomy weather mirrored his demeanor. He didn’t see Marco or his son when they left the chateau in the morning, so he assumed they were still sleeping. Who knew Marco Seely had already arrived?! Jimmy couldn’t help but be disappointed. For the first time, he began to doubt his professional abilities. ‘No, I have to turn this around!’ If I don’t get Mr. Reed’s help, I’ll starve to death sooner or later... I need to believe in myself and demonstrate my abilities. Who else, besides me, can bring Mr. Reed and Ms. Morgan back together?’ Jimmy pumped himself up and recollected his mood in less than a minute. ‘I must step up to the plate and keep Ms. Morgan by Mr. Reed’s side! I’m sure I can do it!’ Jimmy pondered. ‘This guy must be mentally unstable!’ Bill thought as he watched Jimmy’s neurotic emotional transformation. He then proceeded to a different glass panel to ensure Ivy’s safety. Jimmy pumped himself up and prepared to enter the library. He couldn’t let Ivy stay any longer because it was too dangerous! He was about to open the door when he received a message from Ivy. (Please wait outside and do not enter.) His mood plummeted in an instant as a result of these words. Jimmy returned with resentment and sat on a bench, looking sadly at Ivy through the glass panel. She’s so heinous! Ivy was unconcerned as she slid her phone into her pocket. She smiled slightly as she watched
Thor speak passionately about his latest research. She could see a sliver of his most recent study. Thor took a brief break after about an hour. His mouth was parched, but Ivy and Marco, who sat across from him, only nodded indifferently from time to time. ‘Hmph! These two untrained students!’ Thor coughed slightly and tapped his fingers on the table. “Well, I still have a lot of work ahead of me. Aren’t you guys leaving yet?” Ivy and Marco both stood up and said, “Goodbye.” They didn’t linger over pleasantries and quickly left. “Don’t come to me again!” Thor grunted. Ivy laughed and raised her brows brightly, and was playful. “Whatever you want to say!”This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.
