Buying My Forever Wife novel Chapter 456

Ivy blinked in surprise, her eyes lighting up. "Really?"

"Yes."

"Okay! I'll wait for you."

Feeling utterly satisfied, Ivy curled back up on the couch to text her two sisters abroad and see what they were up to.

Just then, Leo pushed the door open and reported.

"Boss, Xavier Rhodes is here. Shall I bring him in?"

Alaric knew exactly why Xavier was here.

It was undoubtedly about him pulling out of several contracts with the Rhodes family and officially blacklisting Tristan.

He was rather curious to see what Xavier had to say for himself.

"Send him in."

Leo nodded and stepped out.

Ivy had heard Leo's announcement and immediately stood up, intending to hide in the adjacent room.

Watching her scramble, Alaric spoke up.

"What are you doing?"

Ivy replied, highly self-aware.

"I'm hiding. If people see me in your office, they'll get the wrong idea."

Alaric's face darkened. "Xavier already knows about us. What is there to hide?"

He had already staked his claim back at the airport. Was this girl an idiot?

Ivy pouted. "I just didn't want to interrupt your meeting."

Truthfully, she was just too embarrassed to face Xavier.

While Xavier knew they were involved, he had no idea they were legally married.

He probably thought she was just a gold digger who had hooked a billionaire and quit her job to sit around as arm candy.

"Sit back down."

Alaric commanded.

Left with no choice, Ivy sheepishly shuffled back to the couch.
