Everly put down the glass of water: "Can’t you let me catch my breath? It seems like you two live close and have already gotten lovey-dovey."
"Who’s getting lovey-dovey with a married woman like her."
"She’s practically a shameless little flirt now." Chloe rolled her eyes at Ivy.
Ivy shrugged: "My dear, listen to how rude this woman is. Should we gang up and beat her?"
"It’s too hot, ganging up on her would make us sweat."
Chloe felt she no longer belonged to the same world as the two women, she was no longer interested.
After Everly finished her water, the steak was served.
The three of them started eating ravenously like hungry wolves. Everly said, "Darling, you really don’t have to worry too much in the future.
That Isla Linton is no threat to you, one reason is she’s married, and her husband is a business tycoon in Mountain City, he’s not only rich but also spoils her a lot."
Ivy pouted: "I know, the uncle told me, the man Isla Linton married has a strong position in Mountain City.
I wonder why she left the uncle.
Surely it’s not just for money like my mother-in-law said."
Everly shook her head: "No one can guess this, only she knows in her heart."
"Didn’t you say her being married is only one of the reasons? What’s the other reason?"
"The other reason is that Isla Linton has amnesia.
My brother found out that she had a severe accident that caused memory loss.
It was because of that accident that she ended up with her current husband.
They’ve been married a long time, and still don’t have any children.
Because her husband is a prominent figure in Mountain City, some outsiders speculate that maybe she’s unable to have children. Content originally comes from novel~fire~net
But her husband seems to be a genuinely good man.
Even though she hasn’t had children, he still treats her very well."
Ivy was a bit surprised, amnesia?
The uncle never mentioned this; could he be completely unaware?
When he talked about it before, he seemed really bothered by her pretending not to know him.
Now it seems Isla Linton wasn’t pretending not to know the uncle on purpose.
She just doesn’t remember him due to her amnesia.
If the uncle knew about this, how would he feel?
Ivy suddenly felt a lot heavier at heart.
Chloe admired: "Geez, some women want to marry but can’t get anyone.
Some leave an excellent man, have a tiny accident and forget things, and can immediately fall into the arms of another wealthy man.
If that’s not frustratingly unfair, I guess maybe I just have bad luck in finding a good man this lifetime."
"It’s not bad luck, you’re just too tough," Everly said, patting her thigh, "You’re more macho than most men, no wonder you struggle."
"Everly, do you believe I’ll take you out right now?"
"No, I’m just a little wretch, no need for you to lift a finger, I’ll do it myself."
"Do you even have the guts to show it?"
Everly helplessly covered her face: "See? I said you’re too tough, even your words are manly, right darling?"
Ivy wasn’t even listening to the two talking, just staring into space deep in thought.
Chloe lightly tapped her fork on Ivy’s plate: "Sweetie, what are you thinking about, not even listening to people talk."
Ivy snapped back: "I was thinking, should I tell the uncle about this, he seems unaware of this woman’s memory loss."
