Chapter 118: Chapter 118: Warming the Bed for Master Blackwood
Ivy Kensington was momentarily flustered. Ethan Ford was here now, and given Sebastian Blackwood’s nature, seeing her hiding a grown man at home would definitely raise suspicions...
Ivy didn’t want to invite so much trouble and directly pushed Ethan to the window.
"This is the second floor, jump down."
Ethan was incredulous: "I’m a patient, and you’re asking me to jump from the second floor?"
Outside the door, Sebastian’s cold voice grew more impatient: "Ivy, I’ll give you three more seconds. Open the door, or I’ll kick it in."
Ivy grabbed Ethan urgently: "At worst, I’ll give you a discount on the medical fees, charge you nine hundred."
As soon as she finished speaking, "Bang—"
The door was kicked open, and Sebastian’s tall figure appeared just as Ethan turned to jump down.
The man glanced around, his cold black eyes fixed on Ivy, questioning: "What are you doing?"
Whenever Ivy saw him now, she felt a chill in her heart, and replied plainly: "Nothing, just sleeping."
"Heh."
Sebastian sneered.
Did she really think he was a fool?
Clearly, there was someone here just now—a man!
In an instant, anger surged through Sebastian. He leaned in closer to Ivy, grabbing her chin: "Since you’ve become Mrs. Blackwood, you better behave. If you dare to disgrace the Blackwood family, you’ll regret it."
The man’s grip was strong, Ivy even felt like her jaw might be crushed.
She inhaled softly in pain, turned away, and said: "Don’t worry, I’m more conscientious than you."
At least, she wouldn’t think about stealing someone else’s heart.
Her attitude made Sebastian even more displeased.
Why was she angry?
She did something wrong, yet he didn’t pursue it, and she still dared to show him attitude?
Sebastian grabbed Ivy’s wrist and walked out decisively, instructing Owen Rhodes: "Tear down this entire area!"
Ivy’s eyes widened—this man was so domineering. Just because she hadn’t returned to the Blackwood family in time, he wanted to demolish the place...
Thinking of this, Ivy involuntarily breathed a sigh of relief.
Luckily, Ethan wasn’t seen by him, otherwise it would be impossible to explain.
In the bedroom.
Now as Mrs. Blackwood, Ivy was supposed to sleep with Sebastian.
But she knew she was merely a vessel for Nina Shaw’s heart that he was raising, not worthy of that status.
She held a blanket and made a bed on the floor.
"Mr. Blackwood, you sleep on the bed, I’ll be fine here."
Sebastian sat at the edge of the bed, seeing this, his dissipating anger flared up again.
Did she find his touch so hard to accept?
For a moment, Sebastian was angry yet faintly frustrated.
He said in a deep voice: "Get up."
What?
Ivy looked at him, puzzled.
Sebastian: "The bed is too cold."
This meant Ivy had to warm the bed for him, and once it was warm, she could sleep on the floor.
Ivy clenched her fists—this detestable man!
Clamping her lips shut, Ivy didn’t want to say more, obediently climbed into bed and slid under the covers.
The bed was custom-made, very comfortable. Ivy, due to her emotional turmoil over the heart issue today, almost fell asleep as soon as she lay down.
In under three minutes, she was sound asleep.
As Sebastian looked at her gentle face, his inexplicable anger vanished.
Ivy seemed to have a special magic over him. He never resisted her proximity...
With that thought, Sebastian also lay down. He wrapped his arm around Ivy’s waist, pulling her into his embrace.
The next day.
When Ivy woke up, she found herself sleeping in Sebastian’s arms, her heart almost jumping out of her chest.
Did she sleepwalk onto the bed last night?
Taking advantage of Sebastian being asleep, Ivy quietly slipped away.
Meanwhile, someone arrived at Blackwood Manor.
