"What the hell are you doing here?" Ivy asked, folding her arms across her chest.

She already knew why he was here, but she asked anyway. Slightly hoping for a different answer.

know what you did, I know how fucking jealous you are," Mason said, his tone filled with venom.

"Watch your tone, mister," Stud cautioned, his voice harsher than his glare.

Mason scoffed. "This-" he gestured to the guards. "-does not change anything. You're still so bitter."

Ivy sighed, realizing she didn't want to do this with him. "Have a great day, Mason," she said, turning toward the exit.

But he stopped her with a furious outburst, so loud that everyone turned to stare.

"You stole my newborn! You took him away from me because you couldn't bear the fact that I have a child and you don't!"

Ivy jaw clenched. Not because of his words, but because of all the eyes on her. She turned sharply to him, giving in to the anger.

"Well, if you were half as responsible as you claim, I wouldn't have to pay for your child's hospital bills!"

Her noise attracted Cheryl, who rushed to them. As soon as she saw Mason, she gasped and tried to flee, but Mason grabbed her arm.

"Come here, you fucker!" he barked.

Ivy knew it was none of her business, but she couldn't stand the way Mason was pulling Cheryl, and the way she was crying.

"Let her go!" Ivy snapped, pulling Cheryl away. "Are you okay?" she asked.

Cheryl nodded, even though a bruise had already started forming where Mason had held her.

"Oh, I see," he laughed, his eyes gleaming with cruel amusement. "I see what you two are doing. You planned this." He pointed a finger at Ivy, but Stud knocked it off. "You played the long game. Pretend to be enemies, have me impregnate Cheryl, then be friends again and take my baby."

Ivy scoffed, her voice tingling with disgust. "You're a sick man and a bloody narcissist."

"You're not that important," Cheryl added, though her voice wobbled.

"Well, good thing I had a plan in place," Mason said, laughing like a maniac as he signaled to someone behind them.

They all turned, only to see Joe walking in with a brown folder in his hand.

“Hello, Miss Scott and Miss Derrick,” Joe greeted, moving to Mason's side.
