Ivana's request was impossible for Zach. Although for several times he gave Ivyanne some attention and kindness, it was merely as a way to look after the girl. Also as a form of apology, of course, for what has happened between them.
However, Zach is guilty of not remembering the fact that Ivana is dead. And indeed, he had been so foolish as to not be aware of the peculiarities that had occurred in his life.
After a year of never appearing, Ivana has changed since Ivyanne's presence. He should have asked his wife a lot from the beginning.
“Mr Levy, I will be home later today, can I?” said Ivyanne, who managed to disperse her daydream for a while.
Zach turned his head towards the source of the voice and found the girl had been wearing neat clothes and looked a little different. Ivyanne daubed the make up on her beautiful face and carried a sling bag that was smaller than the bag she used to wear to campus.
“Where are you going? Campus?” zach asked, full of probes, as if he were the father of Ivyanne, and indeed they looked so. Either because he looked much older or Ivyanne who did have a baby face.
Age, it is far away. Ivyanne is five years younger than Ivana, who is twenty-six years old, zach has arrived at the age of thirty-seven and is still a lonely wolf due to Ivory's curse spell twelve years ago.
“Uhm, no. I have an appointment with a friend.”
“Male?”
“Is this an interrogation? Can't suppose my friend is a man?” Not answering Zach's question, Ivyanne asked.
He did not understand since when Zach became a person whose attitude is very strange. Ivyanne knew Zach for a few days and for her Zach was a cold, flat, strange man.
Ivyanne was even afraid of the man when she first set foot in this house.
Zach nodded slowly.
“Ah, sorry. It's not like that. I mean just so you're careful. Because you are ...” Zach doesn't know how to continue. He realized that he was being too overreacting.
Ivana's idea did upset him and couldn't be shut up all night. However, if he does as Ivana asks, he can be reunited with his wife.
Although it sounded cruel—because it used Ivyanne only for the sake of their own wishes, but that was the only way they could do it.
That's what Ivana said.
“I what?” todong Ivyanne, then waiting for an answer, but never spoken by the man. “If there's nothing more you want to say, I'll go. And as for Micah and Mason .. I can't ask a few servants for help because they're so clumsy to take care of the twins.”
Ivyanne was unable to hold back her smile given how the twins' always successful behavior made the waiters stumble, as well as Zach who finally laughed lightly while hiding his face from the girl in front of him.
“I know .. they are a troublemaker. I'm sorry that for some time being her nanny you were so troubled. I'll raise your salary.”
“Oh, no need, Mr. Levy. I'm fine with the salary now. That's more than enough.” They were silent for a while before Ivyanne reminded Zach that she was leaving soon. “So, can I go now?”
But really, it's ridiculous to hire Ivyanne to be his son's nanny, and then marry that girl.
Then what about his pledge to Tatiana? Why didn't he think of that? And Ivana .. didn't she already know about that? Why did he ask Zach to marry Ivyanne in violation of his own vows?
***
Ivyanne was waiting for someone she said was her friend on campus. A man who quite captivated her heart after all this time. She was happy because in the end the man approached her and asked her out on a date for the first time.
However, Ivyanne waited long enough, the man did not arrive until he was bored and almost decided to leave the restaurant that would be their meeting place.
Maybe the guy wasn't sure about getting into a relationship with her. Or even if it was just a casual meeting, he did not want this.
However, just as his feet were about to arrive at the doorway, the man finally appeared.
“Ivy ... Where are you going?” ask the man who then grabbed Ivyanne's hand to go back into the restaurant and sit with her. “sorry I was late and did not inform. Cellphone's dead. It!” The man pointed the flat object in his hand in front of the girl.
Ivyanne smiled, then nodded in understanding. He just couldn't wait, not because the man didn't really want this meeting.
“I don't think you're really sure about this date, Drake,” she replied.
The man chuckled.
“I'm sorry, Ivy. Where I might not want it. I even want more, if allowed.”
Ivyanne doesn't really understand the man's words. However, if what the man meant was the same as what Ivyanne had in mind, then the girl would not refuse.
“L-more?” Ivyanne asked, who got no answer from the man named Drake, but with his body language.
Drake brought his face closer to Ivyanne who was not budging or resisted the man's attempt to erode the distance between them except only to blink occasionally as his heart was barely slipping at the moment.
Ivyanne knew what the man wanted and she probably wouldn't refuse.
“Breathe, Ivyanne,” Drake wafts along with his cold lips landing on Ivyanne's lips.
Ivyanne knows for sure, this is what she wants, although this is too beautiful to be called a reality, but she enjoys it.—Drake responds to her secret love within a day. Everything seems to go in a magical way.
Unfortunately, their pleasure does not last long due to the presence of others who seem to dislike the intimacy between Ivyanne and Drake.
He not only watched, but approached the two lovebirds.
