The Secret Heir's Return to Wealth and Love novel Chapter 324

Ivy trudged along, heading towards Wayne's direction.

Just before she arrived, she heard the annoying aunt's voice. Ivy knew eavesdropping wasn't cool, but instinctively, she pulled Laura to the corner and stood close to the wall.

Laura was puzzled.

There was no need to stick to the wall at this corner; nobody could see them from the other side. The young lady seemed to be watching too many spy movies lately!

"A little change of plans happened on my part," the Annoying Aunt whispered, sounding quite displeased. "A pesky brat showed up and got tangled up with Wayne."

Pesky brat?

Ivy wrinkled her nose. She wondered if the woman was talking about her.

"Now she's clinging to Wayne, insisting on having lunch with him!" Annoying Aunt continued. "In a bit, I'll pretend to feel unwell and ask him to take me home. No matter what, he must come home with me tonight!"

Both Ivy and Laura were astonished. They looked at each other, feeling like they'd just uncovered a tremendous secret.

"Now that he's so fond of kids, if this plan succeeds, I'll be able to trap him with a child..." Annoying Aunt's voice trailed off as she walked away.

Ivy's little heart raced.

"Is she going to do something bad to the painting buyer?" Laura asked Ivy.

Ivy nodded solemnly: "She really is an annoying, evil aunt!"

"Lady, what should we do now? Should we tell that gentleman?" Laura thought to herself that she must pray religiously when she got home. Why did all kinds of weird incidents seem to happen to her lately?

"The man likes her; grown-ups trust the ones they like more," Ivy said gravely.

Laura was shocked,"!!!"

Such an great point - why didn't she think of that!

"What should we do, then?" Laura inquired.

Ivy looked at her: "Laura, I'm sorry."

Laura was confused, "???"
