Ronnie was extremely angry, but upon hearing the doorbell, a trace of a smile immediately crept onto his furious little face.
"Daddy, go open the door quickly."
Ronnie gave Sebastian Blackwood a push. Sebastian had always complied with Ronnie’s requests, so even though it was the servants’ job to open the door, he went to open it himself.
The door was pulled open.
It was indeed Ivy Kensington. When she saw him, her brow furrowed slightly. Latest content published on Novᴇl_Fire(.)net
Scumbag! He slept with her last night and had the audacity to come for a matchmaking today!
Ivy looked at him coldly and said, "Master Blackwood, I’ve told you not to randomly find a stepmother for Ronnie."
But Sebastian grabbed her wrist and pulled her into his embrace.
He whispered, "If you don’t want me to find a stepmother for Ronnie, then cooperate with me later."
Ivy didn’t quite understand what he meant at first. Just then—"Master Blackwood, who is it?"
Claire Crowley saw that Sebastian had stepped out for a while without returning, so she couldn’t help but ask.
Ivy immediately understood. It seemed he wanted her to play along as a loving couple to drive Claire away.
When Claire saw Ivy, her face turned green. She hadn’t forgotten her humiliation at the banquet last night!
Old Madam Blackwood frowned unpleasantly upon seeing Ivy, "I don’t recall inviting you. What are you doing here?"
Clearly, she was unwelcome.
Ivy wasn’t annoyed. She smiled and said, "Master Blackwood invited me over. What, is Master Blackwood’s honor so worthless?"
Can’t even afford a meal.
Her insinuation deepened the smile on Sebastian’s lips. He affectionately tucked Ivy’s hair behind her ear and said, "It’s valuable, we can certainly afford a meal."
He moved so close that Ivy could even feel the slight chill of his fingertips as they brushed against her ear.
Involuntarily, she recalled how those hands had touched other parts of her body the night before...
Ivy couldn’t help the blush that crept onto her face. After a moment, she forced herself to calm down, pushed Sebastian away, and sat next to Ronnie.
"Ronnie, Mommy will have dinner with you today."
Ronnie was already ecstatic the moment he saw Ivy walk in. When he heard this, his little chin rose proudly, and he shot a triumphant look at Claire.
Bad woman, don’t even think about becoming my stepmother!
Claire naturally caught Ronnie’s provocative look and nearly blew her nose in anger.
That brat hadn’t even settled accounts with her for poisoning the food last time!
Claire, being an actress, quickly masked her anger with a smile. "Master Blackwood, the feelings between you and your ex-wife are really great."
Old Madam Blackwood sarcastically interjected, "A proper ex-wife should be as good as dead."
The implication was that Ivy shamelessly clung to Sebastian.
Ivy understood the insinuation and couldn’t resist a chuckle. Then she turned to Sebastian, "I want to eat shrimp."
Peeled shrimp, that’s quite troublesome.
Claire couldn’t help but mock, "Miss Kensington, you don’t expect Master Blackwood to peel shrimp for you, do you?"
Imagine that! Who does she think Master Blackwood is, to peel shrimp for her?
No sooner had she said this than she saw Sebastian skillfully don disposable gloves and leisurely start peeling shrimp.
Having had the experience of peeling crabmeat for Ivy before, Sebastian was even more proficient this time.
The scene directly stunned everyone present.
The lofty Master Blackwood was peeling shrimp for Ivy right here. It was truly eye-opening!
Suddenly, a loud crash sounded!
The servants stationed around the dining table all jumped in fright...
