The Billionaire's Regret

Chapter 191

They all awoke late because they returned late last night. The air was humid and chilly because it was still raining the previous night. Wyatt may have developed a high fever due to the weather changes. Jimmy was the first to notice and dial the doctor’s number. His fever finally subsided after a while. Wyatt could no longer look weak, pale, and fragile as he lay in bed. Leo was deeply concerned and paid several visits to Wyatt. Wyatt’s voice was low and hoarse when he awoke. “Chairman Morgan, if you get bored, I’ll arrange for a car to take you around. A drizzle should not affect your tour. You can still go on a day trip.” Leo patted Wyatt’s shoulder. “Ignore it. I’m afraid of getting a fever after seeing you like this.” Wyatt couldn’t say anything. He scanned the room and looked disappointed when he didn’t see Ivy. Leo sneezed. “Ivy stated that she wanted to go for a walk at the university before attending a class reunion. She’s preparing to leave.” Wyatt’s eyes flashed. “Bring someone in,” he coughed. “Don’t worry, Bill will accompany her.” “Bring Jimmy along.” Wyatt coughed twice more. Jimmy regained consciousness and immediately recognized Wyatt’s intentions. ‘Right!’ “Yes, yes, I think I should come along. Bill and I can protect Ms. Morgan together to ensure she is safe. The university is likely overcrowded. Besides, Bill will not be as quick-witted as I am.” Leo was hesitant and didn’t understand why Jimmy was following him. However, given Ivy’s previous assassination attempt, it was preferable to be more cautious, so one more person would be preferable. He just nodded. “All right, then.” “Don’t be concerned. Nobody can get near Ms. Morgan while I’m around!” After that, he was gone in

an instant. Ivy dressed and exited her room to find Jimmy standing there with Bill. She furrowed her brows. “What exactly are you doing here?” ‘Shouldn’t he be looking after Wyatt?’ Jimmy smiled and proceeded. He spoke while patting his chest. “Chairman Morgan is concerned about your safety and has instructed me to protect you.” Ms. Morgan, you’re such a lovely princess with a kind heart that we can’t possibly put you in danger!” Ivy’s tongue rolled. “You… Protecting me? She couldn’t believe what she was hearing, but he didn’t appear to be lying when looking at Jimmy’s confident face. Why would her father persuade Jimmy to accompany her? Jimmy lifted his head and smiled confidently. Jimmy smiled confidently and proudly lifted his chubby chin. “Don’t pass judgment on my chubby body. Despite the fact that I lack fighting skills, I have very thick skin! Bullets will not be able to pass through me. The bad guys will naturally avoid my naturally terrifying and grim aura!” Ivy was getting a headache. “Whatever,” she said, forcing a smile. “Simply follow if you wish.” She then turned and walked away. Jimmy quickly followed suit, snatching her purse from her grasp. “No queen will personally carry their bag,” he said, bending slightly at the waist. “Don’t overwork your lovely slender arms. Oh! Be careful where you step!” In the back, Bill snorted slightly. His disdain could be seen in his cold gaze. The car windows were splattered with light rain. The scenery flew by as the car maintained a constant speed. Bill sat in the front passenger seat while Ivy sat in the back, checking her group chat for updates. Many of her classmates returned to their home countries or went on business trips to other countries. Only a few remained in France, but they all stayed in touch. Ivy entered the university and took a look around. The centuries-old European architecture gave off a historical and academic vibe. It felt good to be

back on campus. Ivy’s doctorate was not obtained from a French university. She came to France solely to visit her professor. While pursuing her Ph.D., she expanded Morgan Corporation’s presence in the area. As a result, she had a strong impression of this location. Bill had the foresight to leave some personal space for Ivy and trailed close behind. Jimmy, on the other hand, strutted alongside Ivy and occasionally exclaimed. “Wow! This fountain is stunning.” “Wow! This structure looks like it’s straight out of a Harry Potter film!” Jimmy’s constant chatter jolted Ivy out of her reflective mood. Ivy lost her desire to enjoy her familiar surroundings and sped up her steps. ‘Ugh! How come Dad agreed to let Jimmy follow me?’ Ivy walked to the back of campus and came to a halt in front of a beautiful small building. She shifted her gaze to the side to look at Jimmy. “You and Bill are welcome to wait outside. I’ll return after seeing my professor.” Jimmy clenched his teeth and scrunched up his brow. “But… Is your professor a man or a woman, Ms. Morgan? I’ll get you a souvenir. After all, it’s not a good idea to meet someone empty-handed. Shouldn’t we show some hospitality?” Ivy sighed and rolled her eyes. “I already had perfume. I’ve got it in my bag. Please give it to me.” ‘Perfume? It has to be a woman!’ He joyfully handed her the bag and spoke. It’s a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to see your professor. “Do not be concerned about us; chat a little longer!” ‘Why should I be concerned about them?’ Ivy gave Jimmy a sidelong glance. She didn’t want to lose her cool in such a noble and peaceful setting. As a result, she simply reached out to take her bag and went inside. Jimmy breathed a sigh of relief. He turned around and dialed Wyatt’s number. (Mr. Reed and Ms. Morgan came to see her female professor. She only sees you and ignores everyone else’s friendly gestures. She sighed seven times as she walked. I’m sure she misses you terribly, so get well soon!)

Jimmy ran over Bill after sending the message. “Bill, would you like some ice cream? This is my treat!” “Get lost,” Bill instructed. Inside the library. Ivy noticed a skinny man crouching over his laptop, tapping away at the keyboard with a full screen of unintelligible code in the farthest corner of the library. She reflected on her time here. Her professor didn’t seem to have changed much in the last few years. Her heart rate slowed. “Thor?” The man came to a halt and turned around. His hair was unkempt, and he even had some facial stubble. His tired eyes lit up when he saw Ivy. “Ivy?!” Ivy smiled and approached him to hug him. “I didn’t tell you I was in France, but I figured you’d be here.” Thor let out a laugh. His features were delicate, but he didn’t care about his appearance and never took care of himself, so he appeared disheveled. When examined closely, his eyes were as bright and sharp as a falcon’s. Thor was a Harvard professor who came here for research and had a part-time job at this university. No one would be able to tell his identity just by looking at him. He sat in a relaxed posture, his legs crossed and a silly smile. “As I previously stated, you are my last student. I no longer have the energy to train others.” Ivy took a beautiful little box from her bag and said, “The limited-edition Parfums de Marly. Have you been accumulating this series?” Thor’s pupils constricted slightly as he gazed at Ivy. With grief, the corners of his lips drooped. “Thank you for thinking of me, Ivy, but he died three months ago. Even if I collect this, he won’t be able to see it.” Ivy came to a halt in her movements. Thor and his boyfriend had gone through a lot to be together. He also traveled to France to visit his

boyfriend. Their relationship ended so quickly. He smiled and picked up the small box. “It’s fine; he’ll be pleased when I tell him.” Ivy nodded. “I’m sorry, I...” “Don’t worry. So, what drew you here?” “I’m here for a good time.” “Oh? With whom? Mr. Reed, the brave man you admire?” “The man I like died,” Ivy said lightheartedly.Belongs to (N)ôvel/Drama.Org.
