Chapter 98: 99. Speckled Memories
“Michael Gordon, my condition is that Bianca has to live with me, and then you can come see her anytime!”
He, on the other hand, simply took their daughter into his home and didn’t care about their agreement at all!
What about her? Did she give birth just for nothing?
“So, do you disagree with moving in and living with me?”
Michael stared intently at her moving lips as he asked his question seriously.
“I disagree, I won’t move, I won’t move, no matter what you say or what conditions you offer, I won’t agree!”
Her daughter was her heart’s desire; how could she let her go? “Michael Gordon, don’t think that just because you have some money and can buy a hospital for her to be the CEO, you can take her away from me! I’m telling you, she’s the child I raised, and up until now, you haven’t contributed anything, so don’t even think about taking her away from me!”
Ivy was probably at her wit’s end; once she heard she had to move Bianca in with him, her mind went blank and it seemed like she couldn’t even speak properly!
He hadn’t contributed anything?
Michael’s eyes twitched at her words – did this damn woman even know what she was saying?
Hah!
“If I hadn’t contributed anything, how did you get pregnant?!” Michael chuckled as he looked at her, the wicked curve of his lips deepened, and his attractive eyebrows raised high. “Do you think you can get pregnant just by drinking water?”
Pregnant?
As soon as she heard those words, Ivy couldn’t help but think back to the night six years ago!
He was drunk, but she was sober!
She remembered everything clearly from start to finish!
Familiar moments flashed through Ivy’s mind – the handsome face, devilish smile, and even when he was drunk, he was just as evil and shameless as when he was sober!
But why couldn’t she resist a man like this in the end?
Over the years, she never thought about it. However, seeing his familiar face, eyes, and demeanor, Ivy pondered this question for the first time!
Could a drunken man overpower her so much that she didn’t have any pain except for her remorse?

In her subconscious mind, she might have been willing on some level!
Upon realizing this, a light blush spread across Ivy’s fair cheeks, and she couldn’t bear to meet the man’s eyes!
“Bianca must live with me! If you don’t agree, we can settle this in court!”
Yes, the worst-case scenario would be a lawsuit. Her daughter was her life and no one could take her away, especially when he already had a fiancée!
That woman was going to be her colleague and work with him starting next week. Bianca had her real mother; why should she be raised by a stepmother?
For a moment, Michael still maintained his deep and affectionate gaze. However, a more obvious smile beamed on his lips as their eyes met!
One could tell that he was in a great mood!
For a moment, no one said anything. The room was so quiet that one could hear a pin drop, and the once-relaxed atmosphere suddenly turned tense!
Ivy felt like the room was lacking oxygen; she was starting to feel suffocated. The more Michael didn’t speak, the more nervous she became!
What was this man thinking? As soon as she mentioned a lawsuit, he stopped talking and stared at her intently. Without looking up, she could feel his burning gaze!
It was so intense that her hair was almost on fire!
Damn it, why couldn’t he just give a straightforward answer?!
Finally, Ivy couldn’t take the silence any longer. She looked up with a resolute expression and said defiantly, “Did you hear what I said? What do you think? Do you agree or disagree? Give me a clear answer!”
If he agreed, she wouldn’t stand in the way of their father-daughter relationship; after all, he was her biological father. Not knowing was fine, but now that she knew, she couldn’t deny him the opportunity to see his child!
If he disagreed, she needed to ask Sienna Harrison for help with finding a lawyer and prepare for the worst!
Seeing her tense body and defiant tone, as if she was going to battle, Michael couldn’t help but burst into laughter!
“What can I say!” Michael looked at her, his eyes curved with amusement. His voice became husky as he continued, “Since you won’t agree to move in together, for the sake of our daughter, I’ll have to move in with you!”
Michael’s words struck her like a thunderbolt, shattering her consciousness in the air.
Ivy felt as if her body was floating in mid-air and had just heard something illusory!
“What did you say?”
Ivy looked incredulously at Michael, “You said you wanted to move in with us and live together?”
She couldn’t believe that Michael’s words – “I’ll have to move in” – meant what she currently assumed!
“What else would it mean?” Michael raised an eyebrow as he looked at her. Sitting on the sofa, he moved closer and said, “Should the child’s parents live separately? That’s not good for the child’s growth!”
Michael spoke seriously without a hint of a joke, but Ivy couldn’t accept the fact that he wanted to move in with them!
After all, they were from two different worlds!
Even if they lived together for the sake of their child, she had a hard time accepting it because he would soon belong to another woman!
“She doesn’t even know you’re her daddy!”
Seeing him moving closer to her, Ivy couldn’t help but shift to the other side of the sofa, “Besides, she’s already used to not having a daddy!”
That’s right, Bianca’s consciousness saw her father as nothing but a rapist!
So whether he was present or not made no difference!
All she needed to do was help her find a new father!
Of course, this rapist label was something Ivy forcefully placed on CEO Gordon!
Back then, she did quite enjoy the feeling of being “raped”; her younger and inexperienced self just didn’t realize it!
She’s used to not having a daddy?
If she hadn’t said that, Michael’s anger might not have been so intense!
When he first found out that she had a daughter and asked who the father was, what did she say?
Dead!
So, in front of him, she said he was dead!
This woman was really fearless!
“Ivy, say you’re used to it one more time!”
PS: CEO Gordon seems willing to use this chance to cohabitate with Ivy. But should they let his cunning plan succeed?
