Buying My Forever Wife novel Chapter 517

By evening, neither Alaric nor Mason had returned for dinner.

Ivy had spent the entire day playing with Maisie and Stella, and she was thoroughly exhausted.

By nine o'clock, she and Stella were already tucked into bed.

But in the middle of the night, Maisie crept into the room and gently shook Ivy awake.

"Ivy, my brother and Alaric got wasted. He told me to drive over and pick them up. Can you come with me, please?"

Afraid of waking the sleeping child beside her, Ivy quietly got out of bed and followed Maisie out into the hall.

Standing by the door, she hesitated.

"They want a girl like you to go pick them up?"

"Yeah. You know how Mason is—he hates bothering anyone else, so he just orders me around."

"Come with me, please?"

Maisie pleaded, gripping Ivy's hands tightly.

Ivy found it incredibly difficult to say no.

She was, after all, a guest in their home.

Plus, Maisie had been wonderfully kind to her all day. Not only had she given Ivy a full tour of the estate, but she had also shared all of Mason's strict rules to ensure Ivy wouldn't accidentally cross him.

Otherwise, her life here would have been miserable.

And if that wasn't enough, the wealthy heiress had even showered her with expensive gifts.

Now that she was merely asking for some company to pick up two drunk men, refusing felt entirely ungrateful.

Ivy had no choice but to agree.

Maisie drove them toward The Azure Lounge, asking with a smile.

"I heard you and Alaric are actually married?"

Ivy hadn't expected Maisie to know about her relationship with Alaric too.

Remembering their impending divorce, she immediately offered the truth.

"We married back then because of Stella, but we'll be divorcing very soon."

Maisie just smiled and didn't say another word.

When they arrived at the club and approached the private room, they immediately spotted Mason leaning heavily against the corridor wall, violently retching.

Maisie rushed over to support him, her face full of concern.

"Mason, are you out here alone? Where are Gideon and Alaric?"
