Chapter 2127
Ivy’s gaze dropped, the weight of realization heavy in her eyes. She knew she wasn’t the one he desired, which was precisely why he hadn’t stayed with her today.
But she quickly covered for Balfour with an excuse, “He’s swamped with work and so busy. Who isn’t working these days? I should- be heading to the studio soon myself.”
A small laugh escaped Ivy, but the tears brimming in her eyes made Grandma’s heart ache even more.
“What happened next? How did Balfour find out you were kidnapped?” Grandma asked, her voice laced with concern.
Ivy bit her lip, hesitant, “I forced the kidnapper to charge a million dollars on the credit card Balfour gave me. He sensed something was off and came after me with help. If it wasn’t for his sharp instincts, I might have…”
Grandma’s expression turned frosty, “My dear, you’ve been through so much. Did they find out who was behind it?”
Ivy was torn. How could she admit that the person who had harmed her was her own flesh and blood?
“It was…
Clara.”
Grandpa pondered for a moment, “That name sounds a bit familiar.”
Ivy sighed, “Grandpa, you’re not wrong. She’s my sister.”
“What?”
Both Grandma and Grandpa were flabbergasted. The idea of a sister meticulously plotting against her own sibling was absurd to them.
