Buying My Forever Wife novel Chapter 201

Ivy had no idea how long Alaric would be gone.

Seeing Leo sitting on the sofa working on his laptop, she offered a friendly greeting.

"Leo, aren't you going to join me?"

Leo smiled at her. "I've already eaten, Mrs. Foster. Take your time. If it doesn't suit your tastes, I can have the kitchen send up something else."

"No need, it's delicious."

Ivy quickly looked away.

Staring at the table full of gourmet food, she realized she had never tried any of these dishes before.

And they were all incredibly flavorful.

But she had a small appetite and couldn't eat much anyway.

Once she was full, she walked over to the sofa and sat down next to Leo, tentatively asking,

"Um... Leo, could I ask you a few questions?"

Leo nodded. "Of course, Mrs. Foster."

Ivy gave an awkward smile. "You don't have to call me Mrs. Foster. Just Ivy is fine."

Leo chuckled. "I can't do that. As an employee, I have rules to follow. You're the boss's wife, and since you're so young, calling you Mrs. Foster is perfectly appropriate."

Ivy had no choice but to let him be.

After a brief silence, she cautiously probed,

"So... have you ever met Stella's mother? Where is she?"

Ever since she stepped foot into the Starlight Estate, she had been consumed by curiosity about the woman who gave birth to Stella.

She wondered what kind of woman could produce such an adorable, porcelain-doll of a child.

What kind of woman could possibly match someone like Alaric—a powerful billionaire born with a silver spoon in his mouth, standing at the very top of the food chain?

Leo had been by Mr. Foster's side for years.

Surely, he had seen Stella's biological mother.

Leo suddenly fell silent, looking conflicted as he struggled to find the right words.

Watching his hesitation, Ivy pressed further,

"She's gorgeous, isn't she?"
