A marriage deal with billionaire stone (Ivy and Silas)

Chapter 183

Chapter 183

"Is she breathing?" Ivy asked, her voice so small she wasn't sure Theresa even heard her.

"It takes a moment to know," Theresa replied, expressionless.

The poker face made Ivy's stomach churn as she waited for a sign. Anything at all.

It would be awful if something terrible happened to Beatrice in her office. She was Aria's blackmailer, and the media would milk the hell out of any false narrative they create.

"The ambulance is here, ma'am," Jade said, her voice shaking.

Ivy heard the sirens wailing downstairs, but they did

ease her nerves.

Then Beatrice coughed. It was dry and small, but it was enough to make Ivy breathe again.

"You're okay now," Theresa said gently, helping her sit upright.

"Pea... peanuts..." Beatrice rasped.

The door opened, and two paramedics entered. They got to work quickly with Theresa briefing them in medical terms Ivy didn't understand..

Aria joined Ivy, her face damp with sweat but the relief was there in her eyes. "That was insane."

"It was," Ivy admitted.

"We should go with them," Aria suggested. "I really want to know more about her involvement with Rosie."

"I totally agree," Ivy said.

They informed Theresa, and she agreed. Along with Ivy and Theresa's security, they followed the ambulance.

Panic still hung in the air as the journey began, but Ivy forced herself to stay calm.

She needed Beatrice to be fully okay, but part of her mind kept drifting to the foreign news she had just learned.

When they got to the hospital, the doctors attended to Beatrice immediately, and with Theresa's help, she was soon assigned a room.

They all waited quietly in the corridor until Theresa broke the silence. "I'm disgusted."

Ivy sighed. She knew exactly what Theresa meant.

"It's going to be so hard defending you."

Aria said nothing. She just sat down on the bench outside the room.

Theresa paced the hallway, her forehead creased with frustration. "It's disturbing and I can't believe you. I really don't know what to do if this gets out,

The statement made Ivy's stomach knotted, but she hid it.
