She also wasn't appalled by his actions because he had told her that he could pass his exams without studying much. "You've probably misunderstood, haven't you? The perks I'm talking about is that our parents gave me a brilliant mind. I'm really good when it comes to my studies." Robert burst out laughing."Robert, I might be the least talented one in this family." Ivy sat at the dining table. "I need to study really hard to get what the lecturer is talking about.""Do you know what it was like when I was younger?" said Robert with a twinkle in his eyes. "When I was young I had so many one-on-one lessons, and I also attended tuition with many other students. I never stopped taking notes till I got to university, and I'm only passing with flying colors because of those classes. I didn't relax till I graduated from high school. Our parents only stopped the extra classes when I entered university, so I'm definitely capitalizing on all the fun I missed out on in high school." Ivy ins

To Robert, any television studio should be glad to have his sister as an intern. Plus, to him, there were many stations and only one Ivy. ...Elliot received a call from Layla and went over to Mr. and Mrs. Santos' house.Layla called because something had happened.While they were having lunch, Mr. Santos had a few drinks and started pouring his heart out whilst he was under the influence of alcohol.He wanted to donate his heart to his son.Layla was scared out of her wits.There was not a country on earth that allowed people who were alive to donate their hearts, and the best they could do would be to become organ pledgers, which enabled them to donate their organs upon their death. Elliot hurried over, and it took some time before he finally convinced Mr. Santos to give up on the idea."They said that my son's lungs are failing, right? He can have mine!" Mr. Santos' face was flushed, but his eyes were determined. "My wife and I spoke to some doctors, and they told us that

Ivy was slightly taken by surprise. "I'm kind of busy tonight, but... Happy birthday!"The girl seemed to have expected Ivy's answer and remained composed, but another girl protested, "Ivy, you've never shown up for any of the class activities, and you are turning Gloria down even when it's her birthday? You are being arrogant!""I'm sorry, but I really do have something to attend to tonight," Ivy said. "I would have come along if it was yesterday or tomorrow.""It's fine." Gloria smiled. "I believe that you are actually busy.""I'm sorry!" Ivy said before leaving.Once Ivy was gone, the girl who protested said sarcastically, "Is she working part-time or something? Why else would she be in such a hurry?""I don't know," Gloria said. "She never talks about herself.""I guess it's because she is ashamed! She was seen with some foreign guy in a cafe outside campus some time ago... I think she must live a rather 'colorful' life. After all, she is the only one who doesn't need to sta

"Yeah, that's why I reached out to him!" Robert tapped her on the shoulder. "Alright, let's go in! Don't worry, Dad and I are right here next to you! The lessons will be held on the weekends at our house as well."Ivy took a deep breath and followed him into the room."Dad." She greeted Elliot before turning to shake Harry's hand. "Pleasure to meet you, Mr. Gardner."Harry did not seem as authoritative as he appeared on the news and smiled gently at her. "Hello, Ivy. You must have just finished classes! I graduated from Southern University as well." He grinned as he gave her a firm shake. "Yeah, I know. I looked you up because I saw your show and am very impressed by your skills," she said sheepishly.Elliot gestured at Ivy, wanting her to sit between him and Harry.Ivy immediately took her seat."I was just talking to Harry. He has worked at the television station for so long that he doesn’t host anything apart from Everyday's News because he also acts as the manager of the br

She was of the opinion that Hayden not marrying was not the worst thing in life. As long as that was what he wanted, she did not find any fault with his choice. "Dad, I don't understand why parents always want their kids to get married," Ivy said."I don't know about other parents, but I want you all to get married because marrying your mom gave me great happiness. I'm happier married to her than I ever was when I was single. My family has made my life so meaningful, so naturally, I want all of you to find a partner to support you, to listen to you when you need to vent, and to take care of you when you are sick. Humans are social creatures, after all."Ivy realized something. "Don't force Hayden to get married if he doesn't want to, though. I don't want you to fight." She could not imagine what would happen if Hayden and Elliot fought.Elliot smiled bitterly. "I'm just telling you what I think. I would never say these things to him.""Are you drunk as well, Dad?" Ivy could smell
