Buying My Forever Wife novel Chapter 217

Ignoring Maisie's pleas to stay, Alaric and Ivy left right after breakfast.

Maisie had no choice but to accept it.

She personally walked the three of them to their car, giving Ivy a reluctant farewell.

"Ms. Sawyer, my brother owes you a massive apology. If you ever need absolutely anything in the future, just tell me. I'll make it happen."

"And please don't delete me on social media! We have to keep in touch."

Ivy genuinely liked the socialite.

She was miles better than her obnoxious brother and was incredibly sweet and easy to talk to.

Ivy smiled and promised to keep in touch.

Once the car pulled away, Ivy turned to the man sitting beside her.

"You said your friend was just playing a prank when he left me stranded, but I think he did it on purpose. He clearly hates me. Why?"

It was obvious to her now. Maisie didn't harbor any romantic feelings for Mr. Foster.

So why did Mason look at her like she was dirt?

Ivy was genuinely confused.

Alaric remained silent, offering no explanation.

Ever since Sebastian took that fatal knife for him, Mason's attitude toward him had been poisonous.

He had hoped that after a few years of zero contact, things might have cooled off.

Clearly, they hadn't.

Mason still blamed him for Sebastian's death.

But Sebastian had never even liked Mason in that way.

If he had, he wouldn't have had a child with that woman.

Thinking of little Stella, Alaric gave Ivy a strict warning.

"Do not mention anything about Stella to Maisie. Understood?"

Ivy frowned, utterly bewildered.

She looked at Alaric. Even though her head was spinning with questions, she knew this man wasn't going to give her any answers.

So she didn't bother asking.

Stella was Mr. Foster's daughter. Why was her existence a secret?

Ivy just couldn't figure it out.

When they arrived back in Capital City, the car headed straight for Metropolitan General.

As they pulled up to the inpatient building, Alaric spoke to Leo before stepping out.

"I'll go up alone. Take Ivy back to The Starlight Estate."
