A Graduation Gift

Even back home, Ivy was still in a daze. She couldn't even hear Jill, who called her multiple times from the living room.

"Ivy, what happened to you?"

Jill asked as she walked toward the absent-minded-looking Ivy to check on her. She touched her shoulder and realized she was trembling. She instantly figured something was horribly wrong.

"What are you thinking about? Is everything okay? I thought you had fun with Lionel last night. Also, don't you have to work in Miss Ke's studio today?"

Jill suspiciously scanned Ivy's face, trying to make out what was wrong.

"Aunt Jill, I am okay. I have caught a cold, and Miss Ke has given me permission to rest for two days."

Even with her heart crumbling, Ivy managed to force a smile, focusing her eyes on Jill's face.

"Should I call a doctor for you? If you are planning for getting pregnant, please take your medicine cautiously!"

Jill got alerted instantly upon learning Ivy was sick, already worried about her grandson more than she was for her.

"I am fine, and I am not pregnant yet…" Ivy retorted.

Bitterness engulfed her body as she explained herself to Jill. There wasn't a single person in Tang family who truly cared for her. Even Jill, who at least seemed to be close to her on the surface, was only concerned about the baby she hadn't even conceived yet.
