Chapter 147: Ivy And Silas.

Chapter 147: Ivy And Silas.

Ivy wiped her lips with the back of her hand. Surprise filled her at Mason's audacity, but when anger surged, she acted on it and slapped him hard on the cheek.

"You bitch!" Cheryl yelled, her eyes blazing with anger.

But Ivy ignored her, focusing on Mason. Of course she had seen the lust in his eyes when she had first walked in, but she had been too angry to give it much thought.

Besides, she thought he had changed, she thought he was more responsible now that he was with Cheryl and expecting a child.

Well, she was wrong.

"You fucking bitch!" Mason yelled, holding a hand to his face.

"Next time you try that shit with me, I will make sure that's the end of you!" she threatened, her voice harsh.

She tried to walk out of the room but Cheryl prevented her, blocking the door. “You fucking go nowhere! Until you explain this!"

"Explain what?" Ivy demanded, matching Cheryl's tone.

"This!" Cheryl said, gesturing wildly.

Mason went to his desk, still holding his cheek. Ivy had expected a better reaction from him, but she figured him speaking would only make Cheryl more suspicious.

"What were you doing in my fiance's office? Looking..." Cheryl's eyes fell on Ivy's gown and she saw the disgust in them," like this..."

"Well, thank you for acknowledging my fashion sense. I'll be on my way now," Ivy answered, stepping forward.

But Cheryl pushed her, her protruding stomach hitting Ivy's hand. Out of fear of harming her, Ivy moved away.

"Let me go, Cheryl," she said softly.

"I deserve an explanation," Cheryl said, her eyes glistening with tears, her voice tight with pain. "What is happening here?"

Ivy wanted to scoff out loud. Months ago, she had been the one in the situation and now it was funny to see the table flip.

But Ivy didn't have time to tease Cheryl, in fact she couldn't wait to get away from them.

"Say something, Ivy! Please."

Ivy sighed before she spoke. "Nothing happened. Mason made a stupid advance, so I slapped him."

Cheryl broke down in tears, holding the door for support. Ivy had expected that when Cheryl straightened up, she would lunge at Mason but instead she lunged at Ivy, pushing her away.

"Hey!" Ivy yelled but she didn't push back.

"You hoe! You can't stand to see me happy! You want my man for yourself!" Cheryl snapped, her voice shaky from the tears.

Ivy scoffed, her patience fading. "That's rich coming from you."

Mason rushed to them, holding Cheryl who pushed him away. He frowned as he faced Ivy. "You need to leave."

"That's what I have been trying to do!" Ivy said, annoyance tingling her voice.

"You should be ashamed of yourself!" Cheryl shouted.
