Chapter 2478
Balfour flashed Ivy a smile, pressing a gentle kiss to her cheek. “Not yet, but you will be.”
He had every faith in Ivy’s professional talents. Balfour was certain that, one day, she would claim the
top spot in her field-it was just a matter of time.
It was a pity that, despite the underhanded tactics of some, nothing could derail Ivy’s path to fame.
“Scared?” Balfour asked.
There was only the driver with them in the car, and it was impossible to avoid the paparazzi’s lenses
completely.
Ivy looked at him, and they shared a knowing smile.
From the day she had become involved with Balfour, Ivy had anticipated the moment they would go
public. She wasn’t worried about it.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtShe was an actress destined to rise above those who gained fame solely through their. image. Her
work was her backbone; she relied on nothing but her own talent.
“But you’re the CEO of The Howard Group. Are you sure being with an actress like me won’t affect
your stock prices?”
Balfour sealed his response with a kiss. “You’ll only make them soar.”
Just as the paparazzi had resigned themselves to the belief that Balfour and Ivy wouldn’t step out of
the car, the vehicle’s door swung open.
The driver descended from his seat and proceeded to open the door for Balfour.
All the photographers, as if on cue, hoisted their cameras, each lens as imposing as a cannon, all vying
for the first shot of Balfour and Ivy together.
Previously, Clara had tipped off several media outlets, claiming that the hot new actress was
romantically involved with the CEO of The Howard Group.
At first, everyone was skeptical-how could someone from the entertainment world possibly be accepted
into the prestigious Howard family?
But then Clara released a photo that suggested their union, and the journalists were buzzing. If the tip
was accurate, capturing a photo of the pair would be a journalistic goldmine.
The story would be explosive, the kind that could keep them in the headlines for a year.
Thus, armed with their most advanced equipment, the media camped out at the remote hospital
perched on the barren mountain, waiting for a scoop.

Chapter 2478
After two days of stakeout, with only the occasional vehicle passing by, the place seemed all but
forgotten.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmNo family would typically admit a loved one to such an isolated facility. It was baffling why Clara, even a
minor celebrity, would choose this place for her mother.
Many reporters secretly looked down on Clara, while some believed she was playing a prank, having
them waste two days on a wild goose chase.
With other news stories beckoning, they couldn’t afford to squander any more time there.
“Holy smokes, is that really Balfour Howard? This is my first time seeing the CEO of The Howard
Group in the flesh. I’ve only ever seen him in the papers or on TV, never this close.”
The journalists held their breath, not daring to make a sound lest they disturb the unfolding scene.
Though they weren’t too far away, the fact that the couple emerged unfazed by the cameras confirmed
they were not concerned about exposure.
After Balfour stepped out, he circled around to Ivy’s side to open the door for her.
