Mr. Mysterious's Spontaneous Bride
Andy and Dom stood at a distance, looking at the mother and daughter with a sense of sentimentality and bitterness. "This Cato has offended me!" Andy fiercely poked the ground with his cane. "Letting my Ivy exhaust herself like this every day. Even if Ivy forgives him in the future, I won't!" With that, he turned around and glared fiercely at Luke, then turned and left. This look almost sent Luke away. He had been with his boss in the business world for so many years, witnessing countless ruthless characters and glares, but he had never been so afraid before. Mr. Tate... is in danger! Just as Luke was afraid, the surgical lights dimmed. Shawn was the first to be pushed out. Ivy, with red eyes, ran to the bedside, looking at him weakly unconscious, feeling heartbroken. Several lead surgeons walked out afterward, taking off their masks. They all looked tired but visibly relieved. "Fortunately, everything is safe. Please rest assured, Mr. Alter only needs proper rest." As the surgeon spoke, he turned to Professor Watson. "I've heard of Professor Watson's abilities. This is the first time I've seen him, truly shocked and fortunate. This surgery, a race against time, if it weren't for Professor Watson, I'm afraid we would have lost." The chief surgeon continued, "You've done a good job, Professor Watson, and without Dr. Jones' surgical plan, we wouldn't have dared to proceed. It was destined." Everyone couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. Finally, Professor Watson said, "Dr. Jones, three months from now will be his last surgery. The finalization work will be even more challenging. You need to prepare well." Ivy's heart trembled, and her body shivered. Her face turned pale. Her situation, Professor Watson was well aware of. So he suggested, "I recommend you accompany me to England for two months. First, I will personally take you there. Second, you can address your emotional issues." "Professor Watson..." Ivy felt a lump in her chest, stifled, unable to speak. "You don't need to answer me in a hurry. I'll be staying here for a week. You can tell me your decision then." "Okay." Professor Watson bid everyone farewell politely and quickly rushed back to City S to attend to his own patients. In the hospital corridor, everyone, except those related to Shawn, was in high spirits. Roland was excited. "Ivy, I'll go too. Take me with you. I want to go with you!" He was serious! He had decided to pester Professor Watson in the coming week until he agreed to let him accompany and learn from him. Fortunately, Professor Watson was willing, and he wouldn't miss this opportunity to enhance his position and capabilities. However, Ivy hesitated. In the past, she would have wholeheartedly agreed, but now, just after Shawn's surgery, and considering his previous anger when she neglected him, if she were to... While Ivy was still hesitating, a serious problem occurred at DT Investment. "Mr. Luke, Mr. Tate's identity as Cato Alter has been exposed. Someone took advantage of Mr. Tate's surgery to recklessly report on his relationship with Catherine during his time in England. They claim that DT Investment's current strength is all thanks to the support of the Lambert family. Their goal is clear--to buy short DT Investment when the stock price plummets. The situation is critical." The assistant urgently reported the situation over the phone. Luke's eyes narrowed. "I'll be right back." After hanging up the phone, he walked over to Ivy. "Madam, I'll go with Lawyer Brown to check on Mr. Tate first and then return to the company to handle things." Since the identity had been revealed, Luke didn't bother concealing it anymore; he was direct. Pointing to Catherine, who was being escorted by the police, Luke reminded, "She is a crazy woman, and we can't treat her in a conventional way. Also, Madam, over the years, Mr. Tate has never liked Catherine. Although he has said some disrespectful things and hasn't respected her, Catherine has been unilaterally infatuated. Mr. Tate is irritated by her. In all these years, besides being wholeheartedly engaged in business and revenge, he only loves you. Although your marriage was rushed, here and now, in our place, no one has ever doubted Mr. Tate's love for you." "Mr. Luke..." Ivy looked at him in surprise, and Luke continued, "You can call me Mr. Luke, or just Assistant Luke." Ivy couldn't bring herself to do so. Subconsciously, she didn't like it. "I'll go busy myself now." Seeing the police arrive, Luke bowed to Ivy and turned away. Up until now, Ivy had the chance to carefully observe Luke. She was surprised to find that he was so capable and decisive in handling subordinates. Completely different from his restrained demeanor in the past. Yes, someone who had accompanied Cato Alter all the way from England, slashing through the business world, couldn't be ordinary. What about Shawn...? No, it should be Cato Alter now? What about him? With the resolution of her concerns, Ivy finally had the opportunity to reflect on his everything. The various rumors and gossip in the tabloids, if true, then he was undoubtedly a tragic and deep-thinking individual. Thinking of this, Ivy's heart suddenly became unsettled. "Mrs. Tate." The voice of the police brought Ivy back to her thoughts. When she turned around, Catherine had already been brought forward. "We caught her at the international airport, so we rushed here. We hope Mrs. Tate can cooperate with us in recording her statement." "Phew!" Catherine protested as soon as the police finished speaking. "I'm from a noble family. Why should I be humiliated by this lowly woman?" Slap! Ivy's palm struck Catherine's face crisply. A clear and loud sound stunned everyone present. This slap left everyone dumbfounded. Catherine's fair face now displayed five distinct finger marks. After the initial confusion and astonishment, she was overwhelmed by an unprecedented sense of shame and humiliation. "Ivy Jones!" she screamed hoarsely, "From childhood to now, even my parents have never laid a hand on me. Why do you have the right to humiliate me like this? I won't let you off!"As she spoke, Catherine, infuriated, tried to pounce on Ivy, but the police quickly subdued her using tactics similar to those used on terrorists. Ivy stood there, straight and composed, looking at Catherine with a disdainful smile. "Let me tell you, if anything happens to Shawn, I will never let you go!" "He is my Cato Alter, not your Shawn Tate!" Catherine, still on the ground, yelled hoarsely, receiving only a merciless sneer from Ivy. "So what? Whether he's your Cato or my Shawn, he only loves me, and he even detests you." "You! Ivy, I'll kill you!" Catherine, who was hit where it hurt the most, couldn't find any words to retort and could only express her helpless rage on the ground. Looking at the police, Ivy coldly said, "I want to report Catherine Lambert for kidnapping a well-known British psychologist-- Professor Walls, secretly providing me with psychological counseling, attempting to induce me to make irreparable wrong decisions." The police, with a cold expression, asked, "Do you have any evidence?" "Of course." Ivy glanced coldly at Catherine on the ground. "I have recordings of her providing me with psychological counseling. I'll give them to you later. In addition, since it involves kidnapping and cross-border crimes, please notify the British officers in England. Inform them that the psychologist might be currently suffering torture at the hands of someone." The police responded, "Mrs. Tate, the situation is serious. Please come with us to give your statement." "Okay." After explaining to her family, Ivy followed the police. ***
