CHAPTER 73: CHAPTER 73: IVY KENSINGTON IS DUMPED BEHIND THE MOUNTAIN

Stanley Kensington did indeed come to the school anniversary event today. He didn’t expect that Ivy Kensington would actually see him, and immediately turned and ran.

Ivy pursued relentlessly, just about to catch up when a figure appeared behind her.

Soon after, Ivy’s neck was struck with a stick, and she quickly fainted.

Julian Hawthorne looked at the unconscious woman and sneered coldly.

Although Sebastian Blackwood had commanded him not to investigate who stole the Heavenly Heart Lotus, he couldn’t swallow it for Nina Shaw’s sake.

Ivy woke up again, discovering she was in a completely unfamiliar environment.

"Awake?"

Julian walked in, sat in a high position, looking at her with a faint, mocking smile.

Despite Julian’s usual unsteady appearance, when it concerns Nina, he’s even harsher than Sebastian.

Ivy looked at him in confusion, recalling that time at the Golden Splendor selling wine, he seemed to be a friend of Sebastian...

"What do you want to do?"

Out of caution, Ivy asked timidly.

Julian smiled warmly, but there was no warmth in his eyes: "What do I want to do? I should be asking you why you took the Heavenly Heart Lotus."

He was also after the Heavenly Heart Lotus.

Ivy tightened her lips, unable to explain. Despite any excuses she might have, privately taking the Blackwood family’s Heavenly Heart Lotus was inherently wrong.

"Roar——"

Suddenly, the roar of a beast sounded, and a giant hunting dog, taller than a Caucasian Shepherd, emerged outside the window!

"Little Darling, drag her to the back mountain."

Julian whistled at the hunting dog, its silhouette flashed and quickly reached the door, its sharp claws constantly scratching at the door until it was quickly pushed open.

As the dog was about to rush in, a girl’s figure appeared at the door.

"Little Darling!"

Winnie Winslow also whistled, and the previously fierce-hunting dog instantly lay docilely on the ground.

Winnie chuckled lightly, stroking the dog’s head: "Little Darling is so obedient."

Julian’s face changed drastically: "Winnie, are you looking for death?"

This was the little wife the Hawthorne family had found for him, a woman who married into the Hawthorne family for money, and Julian looked down on her from the core of his heart.

Winnie raised her eyes towards Julian: "Young Master Hawthorne, I’m just trying to remind you, she’s after all Master Blackwood’s person."

Julian’s face grew darker, "Do I need you to manage my affairs? Say another word and get out of the Hawthorne family!"

Then Julian whistled again: "Little Darling, bite her!"

Little Darling obeyed Julian’s command more, upon hearing this, it extended its claws and lunged at Ivy.

"Roar——"

The roar echoed nearby, Ivy instinctively froze.

"Heh."

Julian laughed mockingly, this woman’s courage was merely so!

Ivy closed her eyes, forcing herself to calm down, since Little Darling could understand Julian and Winnie’s commands, then it probably wouldn’t harm people...

Julian noticed Ivy surprisingly didn’t cry out of fear, slightly raised his eyebrow.

Seeing Little Darling, ninety-nine percent of people would cry of fright, the number who wet their pants was countless, this woman... he underestimated her.

Julian felt a hint of appreciation, but only merely so.

He wouldn’t forget how she stole the Heavenly Heart Lotus, nearly causing Nina’s death!

"Little Darling, take her to the back mountain!"

Receiving the command, Little Darling immediately bit Ivy’s pant leg and dragged her out.

Winnie watched Ivy’s distant figure, a flash of concern crossed her heart.

The back mountain of the Hawthorne family is a wild mountain, not only vast, but also with mixed fauna and flora. Even if Little Darling is in the back mountain, it might not be completely safe, let alone Ivy...
