CHAPTER 863: CHAPTER 538: SAVE ME, HELP! (PART 2)

"Scum like that should just die."

Ivy sniffed, feeling extremely aggrieved: "But the law should punish him, not you."

Henry Sullivan looked at her disheveled appearance, his heart aching. He pulled her into his arms.

She struggled to get away: "I’m dirty."

"It’s okay, I don’t mind," Henry didn’t let go.

After taking a trip to the restroom and calling his wife, Robert Weston returned and was startled by the scene at the door.

What’s going on here, and why is Henry Sullivan here?

He shrank back, not entering, just watching with the crowd.

Henry Sullivan lifted Ivy up horizontally and walked out. As he walked, he didn’t forget to say to Matthew Zandros on the ground: "Just wait; I won’t let this go."

Ivy felt really grateful to have Henry there; she was truly terrified just now.

After putting her in the car, he closed the door and personally drove towards home.

Once in the car, Henry Sullivan didn’t speak again.

Ivy felt a bit guilty: "Henry, why did you come?"

"I noticed it was past seven and you still weren’t back, so I got worried and came to pick you up."

Ivy bit her lip and sighed: "Today was really unlucky."

"How can you still say that? You’re a girl, how can you be so brave?

Dining and drinking with clients, don’t you know how many girls have fallen victim to that cup of wine?

Luckily, I got here in time today; otherwise, what were you planning to do?

If that kind of person took advantage of you, wouldn’t you be angry?"

Ivy pouted: "If he really took advantage of me, I would just jump down from the building and end it."

Henry turned his head to glance at her: "Don’t be so extreme. I’m just saying, what if, is there no one else in the company to deal with this, actually letting you suffer like this?

You didn’t bring anyone to back you up; wasn’t it dangerous by yourself?"

He still felt scared thinking about it now.

Ivy also felt aggrieved: "I did bring someone. After we ate, Mr. Zhou refused to talk about the contract, so I asked him to wait for me at the door.

How would I know he just left on his own? Such unreliable people really make me angry."

"The most reliable solution is for you not to attend such drinking gatherings again in the future."

At a red light, Henry stopped the car and held her hand: "Were you scared today?"

Ivy turned to look at him, her eyes glistening with tears, which made his heart ache.

"Alright, from now on, you don’t have to worry about this matter.

Tell me, what’s that man’s name, what does he do, and why did you go to find him?

I’ll handle the rest, don’t worry, I’ll make sure he pays the price."

Ivy thought for a moment and told Henry about what had happened over the past few days.

However, she didn’t tell Henry that Nathan Rhodes had meticulously planned this against her.

After hearing this, Henry frowned, his face looking cold and stern.

Ivy said: "No matter what, since I’ve taken this job, I need to do it well. Henry, what do you plan to do?"

"I’ll make sure you get the contract, just not with this company."

"That won’t do, people will talk, I came specifically for this contract."

"Then make him surrender the right to develop that piece of land."

Ivy looked at him, puzzled: "What do you mean?"

"What else could it mean? I’m planning to find someone to take over this good opportunity from him.

In any case, you don’t have to worry about this anymore, I promise you’ll get that land contract."

Seeing a sly look in Henry’s eyes, Ivy, who wanted to continue asking questions, suddenly stopped.

Then she didn’t ask further, she just needed to trust that Henry had the capability.

Today, she truly felt wronged. She didn’t plan to deal with this anymore, no matter how Henry sought revenge on that Mr. Zhou; Mr. Zhou deserved it.

After returning home, Henry first took her to the bathroom for a hot bath.

The housekeeper had already taken Ivy back to the bedroom.

After the bath, Henry wasn’t home, and Ivy was asleep.

Ivy felt like today was such a waste of energy. She originally planned to deal properly with Matthew Zandros, but almost suffered instead.

That aside, she even wasted the time she had to spend with her child because of that hooligan.

What a sinful disaster, truly a disaster.

She asked the housekeeper: "Where’s the captain?"

"He said he went out to see Lawyer Lian and told me to take good care of you.

Also, he said after you bathe, don’t run around everywhere, Ivy, are you okay today?

How did you end up coming back in such a messy state."

Ivy smiled apologetically: "It’s nothing, I had a fight with someone.

Housekeeper, you should go rest early too, I’ll go into the room to stay with Ivy."

"But the captain said to take care of you."

"He’s worried about me, but I’m not that weak, you can go."

After the housekeeper returned to her room, Ivy went back to the bedroom to lie on the bed waiting for Henry to return.

She checked the time, it was almost nine, and she was a bit sleepy, but she kept waiting.

Finally, at eleven, she heard movement at the door, and hearing the sound, Ivy quickly got out of bed and went out.

Henry had already changed into slippers and was taking off his coat.

Seeing she wasn’t asleep yet, he smiled: "Why aren’t you sleeping yet?"

"I was waiting for you, what did you go to see Lawyer Lian for, are you planning to take legal action?"

"I consulted him on some issues, since I don’t understand some legal matters very well.

I’ve already settled this, don’t worry, tomorrow, I’ll make sure you have a way to report back to the company."

He said this, walking over to her, lovingly ruffling her hair, his gaze kind and warm.

Ivy felt truly blessed, with a husband like this, what more could she want?
