Devil's Prisoner of Love by Prefer

Chapter 162 The Plan

Ivy returned to the villa with Genevieve, who was visibly furious. "How could you fail at such a simple task? Can't you even seduce a man?" she scolded.

Ivy looked aggrieved. "Mom, it's not that I can't, but Julian is different," she explained.

"Men are all the same. They can't resist a beautiful woman. If he resisted, it's because you weren't tempting enough, not because he has strong willpower," Genevieve retorted, her logic skewed from unknown sources.

"It's all because of that bitchy Aurora. Julian's completely enchanted by her and doesn't even notice me," Ivy complained, stomping her foot in frustration.

"No matter what, we must win Julian over. If we have him as our trump card, we'll finally solidify our position in the Montgomery family," Genevieve said, determined to have Ivy conquer Julian.

Zachary, overhearing their plan, found it somewhat tedious. "I'm heading out," he announced abruptly.

"Don't just wander off. Find yourself a formidable girlfriend," Genevieve commanded, cornered by Aurora in recent years and unable to bring her down.

"Got it," Zachary replied, visibly impatient, and left after changing his clothes.

Meanwhile, Ivy went back to her room to catch up on some sleep. Seeing her children like this, Genevieve felt helpless. If only they had half her capability, she wouldn't have
