"Holly, I have never been a stingy man. Helpfind Ivy, and I can pay you ten or even a hundred times more. Once I have Ivy in my grasp, I can proceed with my new project. Do you know anything about my latest project? Once it succeeds, I will be richer than Elliot and Avery combined!" "Good! I love working with straightforward people like you! Your daughter Natalie was the same." "Don't bring her up! She's a traitor!" "Okay, I won't. So long as you pay me, I guarantee you will find Ivy," Holly said before unlocking her phone album to show him a photo of a little girl. "Look. This is Ivy." Dean adjusted his glasses to better focus on the screen.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe girl in the photo was beautiful in a way that would win the hearts of many at first sight. He tried to take a closer look to see if the girl looked more like Elliot or Avery, but Holly drew her phone back toward her.
"This is Elliot and Avery's daughter, Ivy. She was sold off to a wealthy family which had had three sons and was desperate for a daughter. Elliot sent his men on a global hunt for Ivy, and, out of fear that they would get into trouble, the family sold Ivy off again!" Dean listened attentively.
Holly paused for a moment before continuing, "Ivy is withright now." Dean's eyes lit up as his pulse sped. "Where is she? How did you find her? Bringto her now!" "I can hand her over to you, but you need to make a transaction to my bank account first." She handed him a piece of paper with her bank details written on it. "Dean, I know that you are a careful man, so you can just paythirty percent first. I will take you to her as soon as I receive it." Dean was entranced. He had not thought that everything would go so smoothly. He had thought that Holly merely had leads on where Ivy was, but it turned out that she had had Ivy with her all along.
"Okay! Tellhow much Natalie paid you." "Three hundred thousand," she said. "You said ten times more, so you are payingthree million." "Haha! And here I wonder how much she had paid you! So it was just three hundred thousand! If anyone finds out that you tried to kill Avery and Elliot for so little a sum, you will be the joke of the town!" "Dean, it wasn't all about the money," she said, cold and expressionless "Whatever. I don't want to talk to you about that. We won't see each other again after this deal is done, anyway." "Sure! Three million isn't an issue! I will pay you fifty percent right off the bat, which is 1.5 million," he said as he took the piece of paper from her and made a call to his accountant to make the transaction. After the call, he took a sip of water. "My accountant said the money should be inside your account within an hour." She unlocked her phone to check the time. "Alright. I'm waiting." Dean continued to sip on his water leisurely as he studied Holly.

"Holly, why do I feel like I've seen you before?" He frowned as he scanned her face.
"You had my photo, right? I'm guessing you've looked at it countless times?" she mocked. "Naturally, you would feel like you've seenbefore." "No... but you look completely different from the way you did before. I mean your face right now looks familiar," he said suspiciously.
