Ice and Fire novel Chapter 809

Ivy's eyebrow shot up and she looked behind her. Looking at Mike, she said with conviction, "Excuse me, I am not a charlady. How dare you call me that. I have a name and I am a field assistant, not a charlady."

Lawrence and Mike both looked at Ivy. Lawrence, still with a calm face, looked away. He decided not to pay attention and he did not need to talk to her, anyway.

"Oh, field assistant. Isn't that the same with charlady? Just a different term." Mike teasingly asked, having fun.

"You," looking at Mike's smile, Ivy was so angry that she couldn't say anything.

Annoyed by Mike's laugh, Ivy looked at the other man. She wanted to see if he was also laughing at her. She wouldn't know what to do if they both were.

Lawrence turned the moment Ivy looked at him. They were suddenly both looking at each other.

Ivy's first thought was that he was so handsome and he looked like a gentleman.

Lawrence noticed that she looked beautiful, despite her messy hair.

It was suddenly quiet in the elevator.

"What are you looking at? Stop staring." Lawrence said coldly and turned away.

Ivy immediately turned away and looked down at her feet. "I am really sorry. I'm a field assistant for the show on the eighteenth floor and it's about to start. I have to bring these clothes backstage as fast as I can. I did not notice that this is an exclusive elevator. I'm sorry about that, I was just in a rush."

Ivy sincerely apologized. Judging from their tone and their clothes, the man she was looking at and his companion must be big bosses. She did not want to irritate them. She chose to look down and move away from them as much as she could. She did not want to bother them with the clothes she's carrying. As long as they didn't cross her bottom line, she could bear anything.

"Oh, you work for Alice, then?" Mike asked, suddenly interested.

"Yes," Ivy nodded and decided to look at Mike. "Why? Do you know our boss?" she asked.

"Know her? Hah," Mike laughed and continued, "Of course we know.."

Lawrence looked at Mike, gave him a nudge and interrupted what he was about to say.

"Mike," Lawrence called him out. Mike glanced at Lawrence and immediately stopped talking.

Reaching the eighteenth floor, the elevator stopped and the doors pinged open again. Without a second glance, Ivy apologized again and ran off with the clothes she's carrying.

Getting out of the elevator, Lawrence and Mike both saw the reception desk. They approached and upon registering, they continued to where the show was being held.

The show was going on smoothly. The audience was admiring every part of it. Lawrence walked down the aisle with Mike in tow. They sat side by side in the first row.

"Lawrence," Mike suddenly called out to him. "Look at that guy, isn't that Alice's boyfriend?" he asked, looking at Tim.

Lawrence glanced to where Mike was looking at. He saw Tim, he knew him because he had him investigated.

Mike continued, "It's been said that he gets along well with your brother-in-law. They say those two have a good relationship and that Tim has quite a potential. He's a public figure in this city, after all."
