Chapter 129: Theresa and Wills.

The shoot took over three hours before it was finally over. Ivy started with Sonia, then Catherine, followed by Aria, and finally Theresa

By the time she was done, exhaustion nagged at her bones. But she couldn't complain, instead she felt complete, fulfilled.

Ivy had missed being behind the camera, and it was so good to be back at it. When she got to her office, she slumped into

her chair.

"Damn," she exclaimed as her eyes fell to the plate and cup of coffee on her table.

As she reached for the coffee, her hand shook from the exhaustion after clicking and angling cameras. But one sip of the coffee, and she spat it out.

It was cold, and it irritated her.

She leaned into her chair, wondering what her next move would be when her intercom rang.

"Hello," she answered.

"Hi ma'am." Her receptionist's voice sounded on the other side. "The event planners are here to see you."

Ivy groaned, rubbing her nose gently. "Send them in," she said, her voice almost pale.

Some moments later, there was a knock on the door.

"Come in," she said and the door opened revealing two women.

"Hello Ms Stone," the woman in red stepped forward, stretching a hand. "I am Lindsey, and this is my partner Joanna."

Ivy stood up, receiving Lindsey's hand. "Nice to meet you, please have your seat," she said, gesturing to the seats opposite

hers.

"Your husband told us you're planning on throwing a party," Lindsey said.

"Congratulations by the way," Joanna chimed in.

"Thank you," Ivy smiled, her exhaustion melting just a little. "And yes, we are throwing a party."

"Good," Lindsey said, while Joanna brought out a laptop from the bag she carried. "We wanted to know if you have a theme for the party."

"Like a decoration idea," Joanna added.

"Well, nothing really. I want something lovely. The party should be about women and their strength."
