Selina gripped her hand and said, âIvy, only by being seen together tonight can you pressure Lyndon into marriage.
Considering that both your families are respected, if he touches you in public, the parents from both sides would likely force him into marriage to save face.
But if we donât stir things up a bit, Iâm concerned that Lyndon wonât be willing to compromise.
â
Selina had a plan to get back at Lyndon.
After all, he had embarrassed her, so why not?
Furthermore, if Lyndon married Ivy, Ivy would be deeply thankful to her.
In return, Ivy would willingly follow her lead in the future.
This way, she could gain a valuable companion among the upper-class circles.
âAlright, Iâll go along with your plan.
â
Ivy, convinced by Selina, inquired, âSo, Selina, whatâs the plan now?â
âI have a nice surprise for you.
â
Selina reached into her handbag and produced a bottle.
âThis spray has a temporary hallucinogenic effect on the mind.
Iâll set up a meeting for you with Lyndon in the third-floor lounge, and then youâll.
.
Ivy nodded along as she absorbed Selinaâs plan.
âUnderstood.
But how do you have such an item?â
A mischievous glimmer shone in Selinaâs eyes.
âConsider it a spice for romance.
Iâm not exactly youthful.
I was saving it for when I found someone special.
But you can use it now.
â
Originally, Aldrich had given her the spray, which carried a mild hallucinogenic effect to make experiences more thrilling.
She had slipped it into her bag unintentionally, and now, it proved useful.
âAlright, Iâll start setting things up.
â
Ivyâs question was merely out of curiosity.
Her thoughts were already racing towards Lyndon.
âHold on a moment.
â
Selina halted her.
âIvy, if you succeed today, Lyndon will have no choice but to relent and marry you.
You mustnât tell anyone of my assistance.
Given my strained relationship with Rosalynn and Lyndonâs disdain for me, I fear his reaction if he learns of my involvement.
â
She was there for the spectacle, not Lyndonâs retaliation.
âAlright,â Ivy agreed, then turned to leave.
