Gwen scoffed, refusing to entertain Ivy’s excuses.Instead, she turned directly to Lucas.“Lucas, are you seriously going to claim these photos are fake?“Are you going to deny that you met other women at the coffee shop today?”Lucas didn’t appreciate her aggressive tone, but clearing up the misunderstanding mattered more than arguing with her.He stood and picked up the photos scattered across the table one by one.Ivy tugged lightly on his sleeve, looking a little worried.Lucas felt it and gave her a reassuring smile.Once he had gathered the photos, he looked calmly at Mr. Quinn Sr.His expression was grim, as though one wrong answer from Lucas would be enough to push him over the edge.Lucas remained completely unfazed.“These photos are real.”Gwen’s face immediately lit up with triumph.“See, Grandpa? I told you he was seeing other women!“And these are just the two I happened to catch. Who knows how many more he has on the side?“With Ivy’s personality, do you r

Lucas hadn’t known Mr. Quinn Sr. for very long, but he already understood what kind of man he was.If there was nothing in it for him, he would never lift a finger to help.So if he had gone out of his way to find a medical team for Gina, Ivy had to be behind it somehow.Ivy didn’t hide anything from him. She told him exactly what had happened while he had been away these past few days.“Grandpa only cares about one thing right now, and that’s having a great-grandchild.“You were gone for several days straight, so he came after me instead. He said we’re already engaged, so why couldn’t I keep you interested enough to stop you from constantly running off?“He wanted to know how we were ever supposed to have a baby if you were never home.”And that was still putting it politely.At the time, Mr. Quinn Sr. had been furious and had said far worse.He had even told Ivy that if she couldn’t keep Lucas interested, Gwen could take her place.As far as he was concerned, it didn’t matt

Lucas could barely believe what he was hearing.“Seriously? Grandpa would actually do something like that?”Ivy’s eyes turned cold.“He’s done things far worse than this. Eavesdropping is nothing.”Lucas fell silent.He honestly couldn’t picture a man in his seventies standing outside the door listening to his own granddaughter and her fiancé having sex.Was that really just about making sure their relationship was real?“Don’t worry,” Ivy said. “Grandpa only wants to make sure our engagement is real. You haven’t been home for days, so he was already suspicious. Now that you’re finally back, he’ll probably watch us even more closely.“So we’ll just give him what he wants to see.”Ivy was remarkably calm about the whole thing.Whatever Mr. Quinn Sr. tried, they would find a way around it.Lucas finally understood what she was asking.She wanted him to help put on a convincing show of an affectionate couple so they could fool Mr. Quinn Sr.The situation was undeniably awkwar

The bedroom fell completely silent.When he didn’t respond, Ivy immediately sensed something was wrong.She lowered her voice.“Was that... not right?”She had watched every single video Maya sent her that afternoon specifically to prepare for tonight.And the women in those videos had all sounded like that.Had she missed something?Lucas finally recovered from his shock.“What exactly did you watch?”Ivy sounded a little embarrassed.“Just some adult videos. I wanted to do some research for tonight.”Judging by his reaction, though, she had clearly gotten something wrong.Lucas didn’t even have to guess.She had obviously spent the afternoon watching porn.No wonder it sounded way too exaggerated and fake.If Mr. Quinn Sr. heard that from outside, he would probably realize immediately that they were putting on an act.Lucas took a breath and tried to keep his voice calm.“Maybe... try something else.“That sounded a little too rehearsed. If your grandfather hears it

But reality forced Knight to hold back.All he could do was endure it.The sounds coming from behind the bedroom door kept drifting into his ears, each one making his jealousy worse.Against his will, his thoughts went back to the past.Mr. Quinn Sr. had once personally sent Ivy to his bed.But Knight had let his guard down and given her the chance to escape.If he hadn’t hesitated that night, he would have been her first.Not Lucas.Not some man with no real status or background.What did Lucas have besides a strong body?He wasn’t good enough for Ivy.He didn’t even deserve to touch her.And yet that was the man who had gotten her first.Worse, judging by the sounds coming from inside, he was apparently making her enjoy every second of it.The thought made Knight feel sick with rage.Still, Mr. Quinn Sr.’s promise gave him something to hold on to.Knight had no reason to think he was lying.In Mr. Quinn Sr.’s eyes, a woman’s main purpose was to have children.Once s
