Chapter 556: Chapter 556: This Is My Fiancée!
"Ivy, cooperate with me willingly. Today, you are my fiancée. It’s best not to let everyone recognize you, otherwise you know, the baby, just over a month old, is extremely fragile."
Evan Lowell affectionately chose the gown for Ivy Kensington for tonight’s transition ceremony, his tone quite gentle.
Ivy only felt chills down her spine.
He was threatening her!
Initially, Ginny and Cody were well protected by Sharon Langley. He couldn’t find a breakthrough to threaten her from them, so he focused on the child in her womb.
Now the child has been taken away, and Ivy can’t even see her!
"Evan Lowell, you really make me sick more and more..."
Ivy looked at him coldly, the hatred in her heart almost tearing her apart.
Evan Lowell finally chose a red gown, which perfectly matched the lifelike mask on her face.
The mask was crafted from chemical materials, fitting perfectly to the contours of her face. Without special solvents, one could barely see where it adhered to her neck.
This lifelike mask rendered her features particularly alluring, completely unrelated to Ivy Kensington’s previously cool demeanor.
Moreover, having just had a child recently, her figure had become much fuller.
No one who saw her would associate her with Ivy Kensington.
At exactly seven o’clock in the evening, the transition ceremony officially began.
All the companies with dealings with the Lowell Group came, large and small.
Evan, as the outgoing president, went on stage first to deliver a speech, while Ivy and Evan Lowell stood below.
The moment she held his arm while standing with Evan, she attracted everyone’s attention.
"Who is the woman beside the young master? Why is she so close to him?"
"I remember there’s a rumor that the young master isn’t close to any women, but this woman is sticking so close to him..."
Ivy overheard the discussion and wished she could be further away from Evan Lowell!
Yet, Evan tightened his grip on her waist.
"Ivy, in a bit, we’re going to announce our relationship."
His breath sprayed on her earlobe, making Ivy feel nauseous.
"Don’t touch me."
She spoke coldly, and Evan Lowell held her even tighter.
"Ivy, do you still like Sebastian Blackwood? But do you know, Claire Crowley just recently gave him a daughter, and they’ve already registered their marriage."
Evan Lowell spoke with a malicious tone, yet everything he said was indeed true, known by everyone.
Claire Crowley, elevated by her child, leaped to become Celestia’s foremost family’s wealthy wife, firmly securing the position of Mrs. Blackwood.
Ivy felt a pang of sourness in her heart upon hearing this.
Of course, she knew about these things.
But what could she do?
She can’t even see Ginny and Cody now, how could she see Sebastian Blackwood?
And his marriage to Claire Crowley had been settled months ago...
He and she were destined not to be together.
"Alright, next it’s Evan’s turn to speak."
Evan spoke with an air of confidence, waving Evan Lowell onto the stage.
Although he’s now stepping down, his decades of authority accumulated, everyone seeing him still dutifully calls him "President Evan."
Ivy’s gaze swept over him with a hint of resentment.
Evan was even more detestable than Evan Lowell!
"Ivy, let’s go up."
Evan Lowell held Ivy’s slender waist, and the two walked side by side onto the stage.
"I am the new president of the Lowell Group, Evan Lowell. Beside me is my fiancée!"
As soon as these words were spoken, the audience burst into an uproar—
"Oh my, she’s the fiancée!"
"Congratulations, the young master and his fiancée look really well-matched."
