"Yeah." Shawn continued as Ivy opened the file bag, "Inside are all the photos of Harry and Amara holding hands and entering hotel rooms. As for whether Zedd and Harry have a father-son relationship, further paternity testing is needed." Ivy flipped through various intimate photos in her hand, some of them entering hotels, leaving hotels, and photos of them holding hands with Zedd at the amusement park. Suddenly, she felt a nauseating churning in her stomach. She couldn't hold back and abruptly let go of what she was holding, rushing to the bathroom. "Ugh!" Intense nausea overwhelmed her, and her mind was filled with her mother's decades of silent loneliness, fear, and worry. She felt both heartbroken and anxious, wishing she could use a scalpel to stab Harry to end it all. Ivy lifted her head and looked at herself in the mirror, her eyes bloodshot and red from anger. But compared to the suffering her mother endured, she realized her own feelings were trivial. If Zedd were proven to be the biological child of Harry and Amara, then Harry was guilty of clear-cut marital fraud. She was determined to make him pay for the suffering her mother had endured over the past few decades. Ivy lowered her head again and washed her face vigorously with cold water until her emotions calmed down. Only then did she step out of the bathroom. Shawn poured her a cup of tea and placed it on the table. "What you need to do now is find the fastest and most effective way to help your mom get a divorce." "Okay," Ivy carefully organized the documents. "I'll find an opportunity to do a paternity test." Shawn said, "If you need help, let me know." "Where did you find your private investigator? They're really efficient. I mean, the way Harry and Amara disguised themselves, it's surprising you were able to capture them." "The evidence was obtained with Jasson's assistance, and the divorce lawyer works under Jasson. After this matter is settled, we'll treat him to a meal." Shawn's words dispelled Ivy's doubts. It turned out that Jasson was secretly helping her. "Okay. I'll go with your plan," Ivy thought for a moment and added, "But I need you to keep this a secret from my mom. She's been used to facing adversity for decades, and her love for Harry is genuine. Otherwise, she wouldn't have defied my grandma's opposition to marry him."In that era, Harry's ambitious nature might not have been apparent to many, but Ivy’s grandma was exceptionally smart and worldly-wise. She saw through Harry's true intentions early on--his desire to take over the family. There were strong objections back then, but Ivy’s mother was determined to marry him. Ivy’s grandma had only one daughter, so she reluctantly agreed. "I'll follow your lead," Shawn replied with a heavy tone. Ivy sensed something amiss and asked, "What's wrong?" The man's gaze remained deep and held complex emotions that Ivy couldn't fully grasp. He didn't answer her immediately, but stayed silent for a long time. The summer insects outside the window chirped softly, creating a mournful atmosphere in the room. After a long while, the man, who seemed to have resolved an inner struggle, spoke, "I'm just thinking, if I had been as considerate as you back then, maybe she wouldn't have died, and her fate wouldn't have been so tragic." She...? The ‘She’ Shawn referred to was likely his mother, right? Ivy didn't know much about Shawn's mother, but she had heard Grandma Winston mention her while volunteering at the welfare home. Her impression was quite vivid. Every time Grandma Winston brought it up, she would keep it brief, but her eyes would invariably turn red even before she spoke a word. So, Ivy understood that the relationship between Shawn's mother and Grandma Winston was a painful abyss they dared not touch. Surprisingly, she and Shawn both came from such challenging family backgrounds. A profound resonance like never before struck deep within Ivy's soul. She took a deep breath and proactively crouched down to hug Shawn. Her chin rested on his head, and her hands gently embraced him, patting his back with a tenderness she rarely showed even to patients. She reassured him, "Shawn, everything will be okay. Together, our life will get better and better. I'll do my best to cure you. If I can't, I'll protect you from anyone who tries to harm you." In response, Shawn's embrace became even warmer and more passionate. Shawn's heart was more complex than Ivy had imagined. Having grown up alone over the past ten-plus years, he had become incredibly resilient. However, whenever he heard Ivy say these things, his heart couldn't help but stir. Perhaps it's time to find an opportunity to be honest about my identity.Shawn quietly thought, and in the next moment, Ivy released him, held his hand, and said to him, "Shawn, thank you." Shawn clearly didn't anticipate that Ivy would say this. He paused and asked her, "Thank me for what?" "Thank you for being emotionally stable and not full of schemes. Thank you for being my marriage partner." Shawn suddenly laughed, "If you really want to thank me, then get ready quickly." Ivy was puzzled, "Get ready? For what?" With those words, the man's expression suddenly became ambiguous. He lowered his voice and, with a hint of ultimate seduction, said, "Get ready to devour me at any moment." Ivy suddenly stood up, her watery eyes wide open as she looked at Shawn, who had just played a prank. "I... I won't talk to you anymore!" What's wrong with this man? He gets so improper after just a couple of sentences every time. But she had to admit that her mood improved a lot after chatting with Shawn. The weekend came quickly, and Grandma Winston, whose trip had ended, finally returned. Ivy accompanied her mother in Lilith's car, while Shawn was driven by Mr. Luke, accompanying Grandma Winston. "What? You hid your identity from Ivy?" In the car, Grandma Winston yelled with full force, nearly deafening the assistant sitting in the driver's seat. Shawn remained silent for a moment and explained, "Initially, I wanted to gradually reveal my identity after more interaction, but due to various misunderstandings, things got more complicated. In the end, she said she didn't want any involvement with the Alter family, and Grandma, I also..." Grandma Winston punched her own grandson's chest out of frustration, causing him to grimace in pain. "You are driving me crazy! So, what do you want me to do now?" she asked irritably. Shawn glanced at his grandmother, who was dressed in outfits worth less than half a million, and said in a low voice, "I've prepared some regular casual clothes and shoes for you. I'll need you to change into them later." "You!" Grandma Winston got even angrier. "You want me to dress like a pauper?" Shawn pursed his lips. "It's just your usual low-key style when you visit the welfare home." "I do that to avoid drawing attention. Who goes to do charity work in designer clothes?"Grandma Winston glared at her eldest grandson with resentment. "Let me tell you, Shawn, Ivy is a good girl. If you provoke her and make her angry in the future, she might divorce you!" She snatched the clothes Shawn had prepared and scolded, "How did I end up with such a troublesome grandchild? How am I supposed to take Ivy shopping for bags and shoes in the future?" So, when they arrived at the Garden Hotel, Grandma Winston entered with a dark expression. Ivy had been chatting and laughing with Lilith, but upon seeing Grandma Winston, she quickly asked, "Grandma Winston, what's wrong?" "Nothing!" Grandma Winston gritted her teeth and replied, "I was bitten by a little dog on the way." Shawn was being pushed into the restaurant by his assistant and heard her say this, causing his face to freeze. His grandmother had just scolded him for being a liar and called him a little dog the whole way, and now she was scolding him during dinner. Shawn had a headache but had to explain calmly, "There have been more stray dogs lately." Grandma Winston shot him a look and decided not to quarrel with him for now. So she turned to Ivy and, pulling her over, said, "I can’t believe you’re now my grand daughter-in-law." Grandma Winston was very happy and immediately took out the gifts she had prepared from her bag, distributing them to everyone present, including Lilith. "Ivy, this is a wedding gift specially prepared for you by me." Grandma Winston liked Ivy more and more as she looked at her, as if she wanted to give her the whole world. She took out an exquisite gift box, carefully opened it, and inside was a piece of bracelet. Ivy was astonished, and Lilith, who had a good eye, exclaimed with joy, "Wow, Grandma, this diamond bracelet is worth at least a million, right?" ***
