Chapter 1089
Ivy slipped into her new clothes, all bright–eyed and bushy tailed.
Humming a new nursery rhyme she’d learned, she scampered off to the dining room..
“What’s got you in such high spirits this morning, sweetheart?” Hilaria, who was in the middle of a work discussion
with her secretary, paused to address Ivy. “Morning, Granny Hilaria and Mr. Secretary!”
“Morning, Ivy!” The secretary couldn’t help but melt at her cuteness.
“Brother’s master is sick, so Ivy is going to visit him with brother and Uncle Jaime!” Ivy clambered up her chair and
started tucking into her breakfast.
Hilaria, eyes full of affection, cautioned, “Eat slowly.”
“Granny Hilaria, mom and dad have been working really hard and coming home late. They even have to check my
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇthomework and read me bedtime stories. So it’s alright if they sleep in a bit. Don’t scold them!” Ivy pleaded.
Hilaria burst out laughing. “Alright, little one. You sure have a lot on your mind, don’t you?”
Ivy continued to wolf down her breakfast.
“Granny Hilaria, I’m heading out. Keep your chin up at work. See you tonight!” With that, Ivy dashed over to Hilaria,
gave her a peck on the cheek, and scampered off in high spirits.
“Miss Ivy is such a bundle of joy!” The secretary couldn’t help but beam.
“Indeed.” Hilaria watched as Ivy ran over to Cory, took his hand, and said, “That’s why I must press on. I have to
live a long life to protect my precious granddaughter and all my great–grandchildren so that they can live worry–
free, with no one daring to bully them!”
After Ivy and the others left, Hilaria quickly headed off to the company.
When Rosalynn and Wayne woke up, the house was empty.
“Ivy went with Cory and Jaime Jules to the hospital to visit Cory’s master,” Wayne reported after a phone call. He
then slid back into Rosalynn’s arms, snuggling contentedly, “Finally, some alone time.”
In the past, he and Rosalynn had plenty of alone time. But since they’d reunited, those moments were few and far
between.
“Stay away, I’m not as young as I used to be… Spare me!” Rosalynn warned.
Wayne chuckled. “Do I really look that desperate?”
“Yes!”
Rosalynn tenderly held Wayne’s face and posed a question, “Do you still plan on going to the office?”
Wayne shook his head and replied, “If you’re going to work, I’ll accompany you.”
“Um…” Rosalynn paused, contemplating for a moment before making a suggestion. “Let’s go on a date.”
Wayne was momentarily taken aback. A date? Throughout all their years together, they had never really gone on

“Deal!” Wayne enthusiastically agreed, pulling Rosalynn into a tight embrace and affectionately nuzzling his nose
against her neck. “Darling, how about we make it a tradition to go on a date, just the two of us, every week?”
“Who treats dates like chores?” Rosalynn playfully pinched his ear. “Stop lazing around and get up to change.”
“Give me five minutes.” Wayne glanced at the clock, ready to embark on their long–overdue date.
Before Rosalynn could question why he needed five minutes, Wayne had already leaned in for a passionate kiss that
lasted for about five minutes.
Although he was reluctant to pull away, he did. Then, in a princess–hold, he lifted Rosalynn off the bed.
Rosalynn began to giggle. “What are you doing?”
“I’m carrying you to the dressing room.”
“It’s just a few steps away, Wayne. You’re so dramatic!”
And off they went to the dressing room.
