Capítulo 26: The Party (4)
Lucas Wood could only stare at the people who were just a few moments ago fawning over him were now running away from the hall.
He stared at Ivy as anger swelled inside him, 'this was the girl who he had previously kicked out of his family.
She was beneath him then, and she was still beneath him now.
Marching towards her, he started yelling,
"What the hell do you think you are doing? Do you know any idea how much you have humiliated me today? How your actions have disgraced Mr Almund? Do you have any idea who he is?''
Just as he was about to pass Almund, he felt someone pulling him., glancing down, he saw Almund pulling his pants to stop him.
Ivy looked at them and smiled as she asked Almund,
"Say Almund... do you think that I have shamed you?"
"No.... no.... how could madam have humiliated me? It is me who has humiliated madam...Please forgive me for it, madam...please."
Lucas Wood only grew more furious as he heard this and shouted,
"Stay in your limits Ivy Brown, or else you and your bastard son would not be able to stay in this country any longer! Do you even have an idea to whom you are talking? Who do you think you are?"
He was so angry that he was not to see that the one who was truly scared and had control over the situation was not him nor it was Almund but the young lady standing in front of him.
Damon, who was standing behind trying to make sense of why Ivy was there, felt anger the second he heard his father,
But just as he was about to say something, he was interrupted as Ivy once again started speaking.
''Mr Wood, since you asked let me tell you about myself as it would be faster and your colleagues would not have to waste their time or money by contacting their private investigators to look for information on me.''
Ivy said before taking a pause and then continued,
''Allow me to introduce myself, I am Ivy Crompton Belmont, the current head of the prestigious Belmont family.''
Silence ensued the hall as everyone who knew how much power the Belmont's possessed stood there in shock. While the ignorant ones simply stood there as they tried to recall whether they knew any powerful family named Belmont.
The one who was the most surprised was none other than Damon, as he looked at Ivy.
Lucas Wood was also not in a better state as he too stared at Ivy trying to figure out whether she was lying or not,
'Not possible! How can she be a Belmont?'
He thought to himself and decided to voice his suspicions.
"How is that possible? You are from the Brown family... How can you suddenly belong to the Belmont family and even lead them?''
Upon hearing his Question, Ivy gave him a smile as she told him,
"Why not Mr Wood. Unlike all the other families, only we the Belmont's decide your successors based on ability and not blood."
The tense atmosphere was broken suddenly as someone's shout was heard.
"What are you doing here?''
Looking at the source, everyone was surprised to see a stout man with a big belly walking towards them with hurried steps followed by an old woman and a younger girl, not much older than Ivy.
Coming to a stop in front of Ivy, the man panted as he stared at Ivy and once again asked her.
"Answer me now! What are you doing here?"
Gilbert Brown asked his estranged daughter as he nervously stared at the people with grim faces.
He was earlier busy fooling around with his pretty wife in the hallway and had missed Ivy's entrance, it was his mother who had suddenly interrupted them and told him that his daughter was here with her bastard son and a bunch of bodyguards, making a scene in front of the entire who's who of the country.
Hearing this, he grew anxious.
He still clearly remembered the last time his daughter made a scene and how hard he had to beg the Wood's for them to not destroy his company.
'Well, it was not that hard at all.'
He thought to himself as he hurried towards the hall with his mother and wife in tow,
'All I had to do was promise them not to support Ivy financially in any way possible and afterwards, she disappeared, then why is she coming back now of all times? Now when my business is going well and I have finally found myself such a young and sexy wife?'
He kept on thinking to himself, finally entering the man hall where the celebration was being held.
Looking at the figure of his daughter, he was shocked to see that she was resembling his dead ex-wife more and more.
'Huh..well look at that... both s**ts look the same.'
He sneered to himself.
