Lilian carefully chose her words and said, “Ivy, tell me. Have you let of Christopher?”
After she finished her words, her eyes flashed with expectation, waiting for Ivy’s answer.
This time, Ivy didn’t avert her gaze.
Lilian had always known Ivy’s feelings toward Christopher.
Ivy suddenly raised her eyes and said seriously, “Since we’re not meant to be, it’s useless. for me to
keep holding on.”
There was carefree and sensible, but also a hint of unwillingness and helplessness in her words.
Lilian took the opportunity to ask and said with earnest, “We can be a family. You can’t. marry him, but
we can have family ties. Would you like to be my go d-granddaughter?”
Of course, Ivy knew that the old lady was not joking.
She put a lot of energy into Christopher and the Levine family.
Since she couldn’t get what she wanted and married Christopher, it was not a loss to be Lilian’s go d-
granddaughter.
In other words, it was a timely stop and also a way out in the future.
She was not sure about Ethan. Although he was passionate about her, it was hard to say if he would
change his heart one day.
Most of the people at that level were cold-blooded and ruthless.
The Levine family of Norham was prestigious. Things would be easier to do if she had their support.
After figuring it out, Ivy was in a good mood. Her face was full of smiles, and her mouth seemed to be
smeared with honey as she greeted, “Grandma Lilian.”
That greeting conveyed Ivy’s decision that she was willing to be Lilian’s go d- granddaughter.
Lilian was so happy that her eyes were filled with tears. “Good. That’s good. I’ll talk to Christopher
sometimes. Next month is Maxwell’s birthday. We can hold a recognition party.”
Ivy was a little surprised to hear that.
She didn’t expect Lilian to be going to announce it to the public.
However, she was only surprised for a moment.
She felt that she deserved it as she did her best to please everyone in the family.
It was time for her to reap.
Ivy had always felt inferior.
а
Although her Ab bot family in Dellmoor was taken care of by Christopher, they were al lost cause.
She was not a wealthy lady like the other prestigious family.
Lilian’s proposal was exactly what Ivy wanted.
It was equivalent to upgrading her identity.
Besides, the Levine family didn’t have a daughter. So, she would be like a rare treasure to Lilian.
After Whitney returned to Larson Corporation, she had a dramatic change in her style. of dealing with
people and things.
She was no longer that arrogant and unreasonable lady of the Larson family in everyone’s eyes.
She went to work on time daily, and when she needed to work overtime, she didn’t ask for special
treatment.
After a few days, she integrated into the circle of the design department.
The department also held a welcome party for her.
During the banquet, Whitney gave herself three shots of wine and finished them in one. goal.
Her colleagues were

Genevieve was the head of the design department.
Seeing Whitney drink like that, she was afraid something went wrong.
She quickly stood up and stopped Whitney.
However, Whitney waved her hand. To show her sincerity, she poured herself another.

glass of wine.
Picking up the glass, she walked to Genevieve and said frankly, “Ms. Scott, I used to be ignorant and
offended you. Take this as an apology. I’ll drink first.”
Everyone was stunned. Whitney wasn’t like that before.
Time was a file that wore and made no noise. The princess who used to be so unruly had now been
tamed.
Everyone was curious about what had happened to her in Norham that made her change so much.
Genevieve was an approachable person. Although she was the head of the design department, she
never put on airs.
She couldn’t persuade Whitney to stop drinking, so she had to drink,
After eating and drinking, someone suggested singing in a karaoke.
Genevieve was a quiet person, so she refused to go.
Seeing that, Whitney dragged Genevieve to go with her.

with the leader of the design department first before she could access the core information.
A few colleagues who always bootlicked also took the opportunity to fan the flames when they saw
Whitney’s intention.
“Ms. Scott, we rarely have this kind of chance. Let’s go together!” one person said.
“That’s right, Ms. Scott. The pace of work is so fast these days. It’s hard for us to gather. together. Let’s
relax,” the others immediately chimed in..
Several people took turns to persuade, talking passionately.
Genevieve was not good at drinking and refusing people, so she was dragged to go with
them.
Those people soon attracted the attention of Whitney.
She smiled and thought, “These people are good. I can use them in the future.
For the first song, they handed the microphone to Genevieve.
Everyone had never heard Genevieve sing before. Their original intention was to

embarrass her and toadied Whitney.
In their eyes, although Whitney was the deputy CEO, she was from the Larson family. and had a
promising future.
Unexpectedly, Genevieve’s voice was enchanting as she sang.
Those people were stunned and felt they could never judge a book by its cover.
Some of Genevieve’s admirers praised, “Wow, you sing so well. You’re really a multi- talented person.”
Seeing that, Whitney also joined to flatter.
Genevieve was embarrassed by the praise, and her face flushed.
The scene was lively and delightful. It seemed calm on the surface, but in fact, it was surging
underneath.
With Whitney joining, some people with ulterior motives began to get excited again.
Where there were people, there would be stories.
After drinking, Genevieve was thirsty and looking for water.
At this time, Whitney winked, and a colleague hurriedly handed Genevieve a glass of orange juice.
Genevieve was not at all alert. Seeing that it was drinkable liquid, she drank it up, not caring if
something was added in.
She seldom came to entertainment places before and had never seen such a scene.
The atmosphere in the private room was high. Even if the air conditioner was turned on, it was still hot.
After a while, Genevieve felt a little stuffy and had difficulty breathing. Even her body was burning.
She wanted to go out for some fresh air and wash her face in the bathroom.
Whitney sent a text message after seeing Genevieve go out and smiled slyly.
Genevieve’s state was not very good. She felt groggy. She kept pressing her temple to make herself
sober.
From behind, a sneaky man was following her.
Walking in the corridor of the karaoke, Genevieve stumbled and bumped into a tall
person beside her.
The man was graceful and gentle. Frowned, he lowered his eyes, squinted, and suddenly realized it
was her.
