Mr. Mysterious's Spontaneous Bride
An hour later, Jasson arrived at the county clinic. As soon as he reached the entrance, Lilith carried a basin of water and poured it directly on his face, turning him into a drenched chicken. "Get lost!" "Hey, don't do this!" Jasson, seeing her pregnant belly, didn't dare to resist. "Put down the water bucket, be careful with your belly!" Lilith was still not satisfied. "Alyssa, go!" Without a second word, Alyssa also poured the water from the basin on Jasson's face. Patients and their families on the road stopped to watch, shocked. It looked like a disturbance, but not quite. "Quick, stop it, come with me." Jasson grabbed Lilith's hand and walked towards the clinic, but Lilith resisted and shook him off. Helpless, Jasson, afraid that something might happen to her, directly lifted her horizontally and rushed into the emergency room. "Doctor, my wife is having a premature birth, move aside, everyone move aside!" Lilith, who had been struggling desperately, stopped instantly when she heard Jasson howling. "You calm down! My belly isn't big enough for premature birth!" Sure enough, right after she scolded, a woman who had just given birth nearby said seriously, "Sir, your wife doesn't seem like she's having a premature birth; this seems more like a miscarriage situation." The husband, soaked from head to toe, the pregnant woman writhing in pain, looked more and more like a miscarriage. So, unconsciously, everyone made way, creating a wide path for them. Now, Lilith dared not do anything and could only obediently nestle into Jasson's arms, like a turtle retracting its head. Jasson, unimpeded, rushed into the clinic and successfully found Ivy. "Ivy, Professor Watson just left and talked to me for a long time. He said you're an extraordinary medical talent and hopes you'll consider his invitation."In the office, Roland said softly to Ivy. Outside the office, Jasson stopped in his tracks. He put down Lilith, and suddenly, he felt extremely uncomfortable. In his chest, it seemed like someone was repeatedly hitting it with a wooden stick--painful and uncomfortable. "Originally, Ivy didn't want to go, but after this incident, I think she has already made up her mind," Lilith whispered in Jasson's ear. She didn't take pleasure in others' misfortune but stated a fact very calmly. Pulling Jasson to the side to ensure that Ivy's conversation with Roland wouldn't be disturbed, Lilith continued, "Jasson, you should understand Shawn's extreme behavior, the degree of his obsession is terrifying. Who would gamble their own life just to force a woman to forgive him? He hasn't even considered what would happen if he gets into trouble because of this, and society blames Ivy. How would Ivy deal with it? Tell me!" Jasson was also very helpless, burying his head in a dilemma. "Even if Ivy forgives him this time, with his obsession, if the same situation occurs between them again, will he resort to self-harm to beg Ivy for forgiveness?” “I know he didn't handle this well, but he didn't do it on purpose. Lilith, you don't understand; he had a difficult childhood." "You're talking nonsense!" Lilith was not lenient. "Just because he had a difficult childhood, does that justify tormenting Ivy? What did Ivy do wrong? The police said Catherine's family claimed she had a difficult childhood, and that's why she developed this personality of deceiving herself. Okay, now you tell me that Shawn had a difficult childhood, so that justifies his actions. Does a difficult childhood absolve you of all responsibility?" Jasson was taken aback and quickly explained, "That's not what I meant." "I think that's exactly what you meant!" Lilith was furious. "My Ivy also had a difficult childhood, but she grew up healthy. From childhood to adulthood, no matter how difficult life was, she never thought of hurting others. Now that things are finally getting better for her, why should she be harassed and hurt by you bastards?" "You! Why are you making trouble out of nothing!" Jasson, unable to argue with her, resorted to playing dumb. Lilith had finally seen through these rich kids; in the end, they were all selfish and self-centered. Stupid and ridiculous fools! "If you're here to persuade Ivy, then go ahead." She crossed her arms and leaned back in her chair, gesturing for him to go and talk to Ivy.Jasson took a deep breath several times, stood up, and walked towards the meeting room. His steps were heavy, burdened with too many hesitations and uncertainties. Ultimately, Jasson was afraid that this persuasion would fail. Indeed, Shawn's actions had their flaws. Still, as a friend, as a good friend who had accompanied him through thick and thin, it was his responsibility and duty to stand by him and support him. ‘Sorry, Ivy!’ He silently apologized in his heart, grabbed the door handle, and was about to push the door open. At this moment, Ivy's voice came out, "Senior, I've changed my mind. I just replied to Professor Watson, and I'll go to London with him in a week! At the same time, Professor Watson also agreed that you can come with us." Jasson's heart sank completely. He no longer had the heart to listen to what came next, and he returned to Lilith's side in a daze, his face as pale as paper. Perhaps, everything is destined. "I told you so." Lilith shrugged, looking as if she had seen through everything. "I told you not to mess around anymore, but you didn't believe me." Putting her hands on his shoulders, Lilith instructed, "Now, take me to the obstetrics and gynecology department." Jasson snapped back, "What...?" "You're stressing the baby." Lilith said nonchalantly. "Why didn't you say that earlier if you’re stressing the baby!" "I... I also wanted to hear some gossip..." "I really can't stand you!" Jasson was driven crazy by her. "You're carrying my child, the future heir of our great lawyer family!" Although he kept complaining, he indeed couldn't afford to delay his work even for a moment. He quickly carried Lilith away, saying, "You really make me furious!" "This is my child, don't you dare make plans for him!" "Without my contribution, how did this child come about? Was it brought by the air?" The man sneered.Lilith retorted, "With your philandering ways, you'll have many children with many women in the future. This child is mine, and I never expected you to raise him." "You!" "Hey, anyway, I won't allow you to mistreat my child!" two left playfully, while Ivy and Roland continued their discussion in the office. Roland felt emotional and looked at Ivy, who was studying Shawn's learning report. He sighed, "Leaving might be a good thing. During these few months of studying abroad, you can think it over, and he can too." "Senior, do you know any lawyers?" Ivy asked. "How can you suddenly talk about lawyers?" Roland questioned. "Who bullied you again?" Ivy smiled faintly and shook her head. "I want to find a divorce lawyer." "What!" Roland spit out the tea in his mouth, looking unbelievably surprised. "You... do you really need to go as far as hiring a lawyer? Despite some incidents, aren't you two affectionate?" Although there were some twists and turns in the middle, it didn't seem to warrant such a drastic measure. "Just in case." Ivy shrugged. "I want to hand over the divorce matters to the lawyer while I'm in England, and settle everything when I come back." Seeing her determination, Roland regained his composure and said, "I have one. I'm meeting her tonight; do you want to come with me?" "Sure." After finalizing their plans with Roland, Ivy delegated her work to other doctors and found an excuse to leave. That night, Ivy met her divorce lawyer, Amy. After hearing Ivy's basic situation, Amy pounded her fist on the table in anger. "Arrogant, self-righteous men!" Amy narrowed her eyes, filled with righteous indignation. ***
