Chapter 530: Chapter 530: Being with Me Is Enough
As she thought of this, Ivy Kensington’s heart ached with a sharp pang.
Now that she was brought here, the Ford Family was in chaos again—what would happen to Theodore Ford’s funeral?
Upon hearing these words, Evan Lowell’s face quickly darkened with cruelty.
He glared at Ivy, full of anger, "Do you think I care about being this brother?"
That’s not what he wanted!
"Ivy Kensington, I know what you want to do now and still want to get out. Just obey me."
Otherwise, don’t even think about successfully attending Theodore Ford’s funeral!
After speaking, Evan Lowell turned and left, locking the room door.
What Ivy wanted was to provoke him. Seeing him leave, she cautiously surveyed the room and confirmed there was no surveillance camera before carefully taking out a slip of paper from her pocket.
It was what Chloe Ford had slipped into her pocket earlier during a push-pull encounter!
On it was written: [Don’t worry, I will handle dad’s funeral.]
Chloe Ford had long sensed something was wrong with Evan Lowell. He was deliberately sent by the Lowell family to be adopted by the Ford Family, but she truly lost her parents and was raised by Theodore Ford from a young age, having deep feelings for the Ford Family.
It’s impossible for her to betray easily.
Ivy understood this point and tore the paper into pieces, throwing it into the flushing toilet.
Three days passed by in a flash.
The day of Theodore Ford’s funeral had arrived.
Even though Chloe Ford was there, Ivy still didn’t know the situation. For the past few days, she had been locked in a room by Evan Lowell, and all means of receiving messages had been taken away.
"Ivy, do you want to accompany dad on his final journey?"
In the afternoon, Evan Lowell finally took the initiative to see Ivy. He leaned against the pearwood door, his gaze seemed to casually land on Ivy, who was sitting on the sofa.
After being locked in this room for three days, Ivy was still in a decent state and didn’t lose her composure as he had imagined.
Evan Lowell had long guessed she would be like this, and it was precisely because of this that he gradually allowed her a place in his heart.
Taking a deep breath, Evan Lowell took a cigarette from his pocket, lit it, and started smoking.
Ivy couldn’t stand the smell of cigarettes, and Sebastian Blackwood had never smoked in her presence.
"What are the conditions?"
Holding her breath slightly, Ivy asked.
Evan Lowell wouldn’t let her go to Theodore Ford’s funeral so easily; there must be conditions.
Sure enough, Evan Lowell extinguished the half-smoked cigarette, walked to Ivy, and, like before, smiled gently.
"Ivy, you know I’ve always been good to you."
Otherwise, four years ago, he wouldn’t have saved her, nor allowed her to give birth to Ginny and Cody.
As he spoke, he placed his hand on Ivy’s soft, fair cheek, whispering, "Just stay with me, that’s enough."
What did that mean?
Ivy frowned deeply. Back then, Sebastian Blackwood had told her to stay away from Evan Lowell, saying he had intentions towards her. She had thought Sebastian was imagining things.
Evan Lowell was her brother, how could he possibly like her!
But now...
Ivy’s long curled eyelashes trembled slightly.
Suddenly, a wave of heat rose inside her, both itchy and numb, she couldn’t stop trembling slightly.
There were aphrodisiac ingredients in that cigarette!
"Evan Lowell, you..."
Gritting her teeth, Ivy quickly took a big step away from him.
She turned and wanted to run to the bathroom.
However, Evan Lowell moved faster than her, gripping her waist and forcing her onto the sofa.
"Let go of me!"
Ivy struggled desperately, yet at this moment, she was utterly powerless...
