Unexpected Love: The Chief Auctioneer's Decision
Chapter 86: Rachel Finds the Recording, Ivy Is Done For
CHAPTER 86: CHAPTER 86: RACHEL FINDS THE RECORDING, IVY IS DONE FOR
"Found it."
Phillip Shaw handed a phone to Rachel Shaw, "This was found by the people we sent near the Ferris wheel."
Penelope Page, standing beside, said, "Quickly check if this is Ivy Summers’ phone."
Rachel Shaw’s eyes lit up, and she immediately took the phone, inspecting it thoroughly.
The phone screen was shattered and couldn’t be turned on.
"It should be." Rachel Shaw had sent Phillip Shaw to search immediately after the incident, so it shouldn’t be wrong.
Rachel Shaw felt completely relieved as she looked at the phone.
Without this phone, Ivy Summers has no evidence. Now that Gregory Lancaster has sent someone back to help her, Ivy Summers is finished.
Rachel Shaw narrowed her eyes sinisterly.
Ivy Summers, let’s see how you fight with me this time.
The humiliation of these days, I will return it all.
...
Ivy Summers returned to Sophie’s hospital room, looking at her own phone.
Rachel Shaw must be feeling smug at the moment, thinking she has won for sure.
With Gregory Lancaster and Damien Lancaster helping her, her chance of winning is indeed high.
But Ivy Summers has the recording as her trump card.
So Rachel Shaw is bound to lose this round.
The next day.
As soon as Ivy Summers arrived at the auction house, she received a call from Zachary Lancaster.
"Sister-in-law, Grandpa asked you to come back to the old house for lunch."
As Ivy Summers walked inside, she said, "Zachary, your brother and I are already divorced, you don’t need to call me sister-in-law."
Yesterday’s situation was urgent, but now it’s different.
"Haven’t you got the divorce certificate yet? If not sister-in-law, what should I call you?"
This...
Ivy Summers really couldn’t think of what else he could call her aside from that.
Whatever.
"Alright, I understand."
At noon, Ivy Summers arrived at the old house on time.
Grandpa was sitting in the living room, and Ivy Summers walked over.
"Grandpa."
Grandpa looked up, surprised, at Ivy Summers, "Ivy, why are you here?"
"Didn’t you..." Ivy Summers turned to look at Zachary Lancaster sitting aside, averting her gaze, and immediately understood. She said to Grandpa, "I wanted to come to see you."
Hearing this, Grandpa was pleased and immediately had Ivy Summers sit down.
A short while after Ivy Summers sat down, Damien Lancaster came in from outside.
Grandpa was delighted to see everyone come back for lunch today, and asked, "You’re not busy today? You rushed back for lunch?"
Damien Lancaster glanced at Zachary Lancaster, understanding everything.
He simply replied he wasn’t busy and sat down.
Zachary Lancaster stood up and pushed him to sit next to Ivy Summers, "Brother, sit here, the sofa is softer."
Damien Lancaster looked at Ivy Summers, just as she turned to look at him.
When their eyes met, Ivy Summers looked away.
Damien Lancaster sat beside her, and Ivy Summers moved a bit to the side, intentionally keeping a distance.
Grandpa observed their interaction and shook his head helplessly, "Ivy, is this brat bullying you again?"
Ivy Summers glanced at Damien Lancaster and got up to sit next to Grandpa, "Yes, Grandpa, you wouldn’t believe..."
Damien Lancaster sat there, listening as Ivy Summers opened and closed her mouth, complaining to Grandpa about him. Most of it was playful, though, and Ivy Summers knew her limits, managing to make Grandpa laugh.
If she wanted to genuinely complain, Grandpa would probably have picked up a stick and chased him around the house by now.
Making Grandpa laugh was something Ivy Summers was good at, and even Damien Lancaster and Zachary Lancaster had to admire it.
The servant came to call them for lunch, and Ivy Summers helped Grandpa up, when Damien Lancaster reached out and held her arm.
Ivy Summers struggled slightly, turning back to glare at Damien Lancaster.
Zachary Lancaster saw this and smirked.
To make sure Damien Lancaster felt his contribution for the sports car was worth it, he quickly helped Grandpa walk away.
Ivy Summers tried to leave, but Damien Lancaster held her by the waist and pulled her back. He looked at her angry face, which was always directed at him, and raised an eyebrow, "Quite the complainer, huh?"
Ivy Summers pushed against his hard chest with her hand, "Let me go, I need to eat."
Damien Lancaster refused to release her.
Ivy Summers, exhausted from struggling, lifted her head and glared at him, "If you keep this up, I’ll complain to Grandpa later."
"Go ahead."
Damien Lancaster wasn’t afraid of Ivy Summers complaining at all.
"You’re not afraid of Grandpa, but aren’t you worried if Rachel Shaw finds out you’re here having a tug-of-war with me?"
Damien Lancaster frowned, his expression shifting from playful to slightly displeased, "Why bring her up all of a sudden?"
Ivy Summers raised an eyebrow, "In a hurry? Rachel Shaw finding out will definitely cause a scene with you, right?"
"We’re husband and wife; what we do is none of her business."
"Our marriage is held together by a single marriage certificate, and she is your cherished one, your future wife. I wouldn’t dare to compare with her." Ivy Summers pushed Damien Lancaster hard, "So it’s better for you to keep your distance from me."
Damien Lancaster watched Ivy Summers’ back as she walked into the dining room, his eyes turning cold.
Because of Ivy Summers’ words, Damien Lancaster finished his meal with a sullen face.
After lunch, Ivy Summers said goodbye to Grandpa and was about to leave.
Damien Lancaster stood up, "I’ll take you."
"No need."
Even though she said no, Damien Lancaster still followed her outside.
Zachary Lancaster sat nearby, smiling, "Grandpa, look at him, he obviously cares, but he won’t say a word."
Grandpa snorted, annoyed, "That’s why it’s his own fault his wife left; let him bring it on himself. He’ll be crying sooner or later."
Zachary Lancaster raised an eyebrow, his face filled with schadenfreude. Grandpa, seeing his expression, kicked him, "What’s so funny? Your brother is better than you. At least he had a wife. What do you have? A bunch of useless stuff."
Zachary Lancaster was kicked by Grandpa and ran around the room.
"Grandpa, I’m your grandson, go easy..."
As soon as Ivy Summers stepped outside, she received a call from an unknown number.
Ivy Summers answered, and the voice on the other end said, "Hello, Miss Summers, I’m Miss Shaw’s lawyer. I’m officially notifying you that, after careful consideration of recent events, Miss Shaw has decided to sue you for malicious injury."
Ivy Summers had anticipated this, but she hadn’t thought it would come so quickly.
She opened the car door and got in, calmly asking, "Suing me? Perhaps she should reconsider."
