Chapter 3

"I'm warning you, even if you marry me, Ivy still has the final say in everything in the Wentworth Family!"

"Whether in Wentworth Family or outside, you are not allowed to talk back to Ivy! Now! Kneel down and apologize to Ivy right now!"

I stared at him in disbelief: "Are you sick?!"

"What do you mean I hurt her hand? She was the one who cut in line first, and she even pinched my wound on purpose!"

"You want me to kneel down and apologize to her? Dream on!"

Ivy immediately raised her right hand and shook it in front of Lucas aggrievedly: "Brother, look, it's all red! She hit me!"

"Brother, I don't know how she will bully me in the future..."

At this moment, my arm was throbbing with pain, and even began to feel numb. I hastily pushed her away and said, "I advise you to let me in now. Otherwise, if anything happens to my hand, ten Wentworth Families won't be enough to compensate me!"

As soon as these words came out, there was an uproar all around, "What a big tone!"

"Everyone knows what the Wentworth Family's status is in Metropolis City. Is she crazy?"

"For a small fry like her, the Wentworth Family can crush her to death with just one finger!"

Ivy came back to her senses and pointed at me, "Why are you pretending? Don't think I don't know that your mother, in order to make you marry your brother, even at her age, went so far as to seduce the Wentworth Family's bodyguards, just to see your father!"

"I don't know what she said in front of Dad, but Dad is actually willing to let you join the sect!"

"Humph! Like mother, like daughter! The mother is shameless, and you are shameless too!"

My mom?

My mind exploded with a bang.

My mother is the daughter of the former richest man, and her family business was once one of the most famous in the country.

Although she is now devoted to scientific research and her family is no longer as rich as before, they are still considered wealthy. How could it be as bad as she said?

Besides, she really didn't know.

The experiment I conducted at The Institute has been successful, and the research results are exactly the core technologies that Wentworth Group currently lacks.

Lucas's father saw this and came to my parents again and again to ask them for a marriage.

But now, she even dares to throw dirty water on my mother.

My thoughts returned to me and I slowly took off the badge on the back of my clothes.

Then, without hesitation, he slapped Ivy hard on the face, "You love your brother so much, then I will satisfy you."

"This marriage is not going to happen!"

Seeing Ivy being beaten, Lucas grabbed my injured arm with such force that he seemed to pull me up: "You think you can hit the woman I have protected my whole life?!"

After saying that, she turned to look at the group of men in black and said, "Break her hand!"

Ivy came back to her senses, covered her face and cried, "Do you think my brother really wants to marry you? How dare you hit me!"

The wound split open instantly, and I screamed in pain, "Let go!"

During the tug of war, my badge fell to the ground and Ivy immediately stepped on it.

As she stepped on it, she gave me a mocking look: "How low, why are you still wearing such a low-brow brooch!"

My heart sank.

That's the badge of the institute! How dare she!

I threw Lucas away and rushed towards Ivy desperately, snatching the badge from under her feet.

Ivy smiled coquettishly when she saw this, and kicked me on the back, "Brother, look at her, she looks like a dog!"

"It's better not to marry a woman like this."

Lucas looked at me kneeling on the ground with disgust and kicked me, "If Dad hadn't been seduced by her mom and lost his mind, how could I have married her!"
