Healing my disabled husband novel Chapter 991

Chapter 991 Definitely Complete The Bet

Ivy had always felt guilty about Damion over the years. She knew how much he loved children, but she also knew that he had left the decision up to her. His actions made it clear that she should focus on living for herself first.

Ivy wanted to see what she was capable of achieving and if she could become an excellent woman. Most importantly, Ivy wanted to prove that she was a woman worthy of Damion's love.

Even though people who were close to her didn't think that Ivy wasn't good enough for Damion, in her heart, Ivy knew there were many people who thought otherwise.

After all, when news of their engagement became public, many people criticized Damion for choosing someone like Ivy instead of one of the many wealthy heiresses or socialites available.

Some even went as far as calling Ivy a promiscuous woman behind closed doors and using vulgar language against her. Before this period in time, these comments didn't bother her too much. However, now they hurt because they affected Damion too.

She couldn't bear seeing him being criticized when he was such a kind person at heart. So over the past few years, Ivy focused on building up her career and doing well at work. Even though it was impossible not to rely on Damion's company somewhat, no one would ever say again that she wasn't good enough for him.

Perhaps some might call Ivy immature or selfish in wanting to prove herself worthy of his love. Nevertheless, it remained important to her nonetheless.

Now that she had finally proven herself worthy in his eyes and others', it was time for Ivy consider things from his perspective too. She knew what he wanted out of life and would do everything possible within reason to make him happy.

As Ivy watched Damien get excited about it at this moment, she felt uneasy inside. If only proving something hadn't been so important, then maybe Damien could have been happy sooner.

Taking Damien's hand into hers brought tears into Ivy's eyes. It was hard for her describe her feelings right now but she just wanted him to be happy.

The atmosphere suddenly became a bit heavy, but Eden broke the tension by saying, "By the way, should we up the ante on our bet?"

As soon as he spoke, Walter and Miles both gave him a sharp look.

They were never in a hurry before, but now they were clearly at the bottom of the pack. Even with Ash and Mikayla, not to mention Beata and Yael, they were still at the back of the group.

This made them compete against each other.

Eden wasn't afraid of their hostile glares. He provocatively said, "Why are you looking at me? It's your fault for not being proactive. Let's just change the bet and see who comes in last."
