Tania knocked on Ivy's door and she quickly cleaned up the tears in her eyes before opening the door for the lady.
Tania was stunned when Ivy acted normal and she observed how she was a million times more beautiful than her, if she was in Ian's place she would have dumped her for Ivy by now.
"Look, I know you're angry but can we please talk?" Tania implored and Ivy led her to the living room where they could converse peacefully.
Ivy wanted to give her a good warning for walking into their house, sleeping with her husband and comfortably asking her to talk. But she decided to hear her out first. Ivy sat on a couch and she did same too on another.
"My name's Tania and I've been Ian's girlfriend and therapist. Honestly,when I heard he was getting married to you,I was deeply hurt because we've made plans of raising our kids here in this house," she said, looking around and Ivy brought out her phone from her pocket. No one mentioned that Ian was already taken by her infact Bea never mentioned Tania to her so this was a little bit confusing.
"What do you mean?" She typed.
"I love Ian and he loves me too,that was why we were together today. I know it's hard but I'm sure you don't love him and you're here for money. Whatever his mom is paying you,I promise to double the payment, just leave him alone. You don't have a future with him at all, you're a mute and a burden to Ian. You should associate with your kind like the deaf and the dumb and -"
" Get out," Ivy typed.
" Wait....what?"
"I'm not doing this for money and I don't care if he loves you or you love him. I think you're here for money ,why waste your time fighting for a jerk who isn't worth it if you aren't going to gain anything? You were asked to be his therapist but sadly you couldn't keep your body to yourself. I heard him clearly, he didn't want you but you forced yourself on hi-" Ivy wasn't able to continue typing because Tania threw her phone away.
"I'm doing your job as his stupid mute bride!! You stole his mom's heart that's the only reason you're here, what's the point of staying here if you can't utter the simple words; I love you. Soon you'll bring your disabled friends along,leave Ian and quit rubbing your poverty over him!!" She snapped and finally stormed out.
It annoyed her that Ivy was bold enough to face her even with her inability to talk but she was scared that Ivy would speak to Bea about what happened.
Meanwhile, Ivy returned to her studio to cry out her accumulated pain - again. Soon, she cleaned up her face..her head was aching due to countless hours of crying.
She carefully thought about what Tania said, since she walked into Ian's house he had never acted like he cared and she felt she was really a heavy burden to him.
What if they actually fell for each other and have kids? She wouldn't want her children to go through series of several bullying because their mom couldn't speak. She didn't want them to be ashamed of her just like their so-called father.
She sniffled continuously and decided to take a walk outside the chateau even if she hadn't gone outside before.

When Jacob arrived at MOVE, Niel was already leaving since it was already time for their lunch break. Niel saw when Ian and Tania left but he didn't understand why Ian was running and he assumed that they both went out since Ian didn't come back since then.
It disgusted him so much that Ian was acting like he cared about Ivy the previous night but he was still seeing Tania.
Niel and Jacob decided to go out for lunch since they last saw each other at Ian's inauguration ceremony. Jacob left to start a boarding school at Florida while Niel stayed back at NYC. They were highschool buddies but they still kept in touch even when Jacob changed his institution and Ian became famous.
They both got into Jacob's car and he drove to Ian's house.
"I think Ivy isn't worth Ian," Niel said after a brief silence in the car.
"What do you mean?"
"I went to his house yesterday,Ivy is a peculiar person.. she's different from any of us and she needs someone better than Ian,"
" I haven't really seen her except the day at the church,"
" I think Ian needs our help,if he screws this with Ivy then it's over. He's still in a relationship with Tania,"
" Wait...what? I thought he'd break up with her if he got married,"
"That's the point, Ivy's heart is fragile if she finds out he's cheating I wonder what could happen,"
" Holy cow!"
" Jake pull over," Niel said immediately they sighted a tragic accident scene in front of them, a few people surrounded the victim and someone was at corner - trying to call the police.
Niel asked him to stop to see if they could help and they both alighted from the vehicle,the accident was reportedly a hit and run situation and the crowd couldn't assist the victim who was losing so much blood.
Niel squeezed his way through and fell to his knees when his gaze landed on Ivy's body in the pool of her own blood. Jake walked up to him and he asked Niel if he knew the girl.
"This is Ivy! Ian's wife!"he yelled, carrying her in his arms.
The crowd gave way after they confirmed that they knew the lady, with the help of Jacob and Niel ,Ivy was taken to a hospital.
She went outside to take a walk to clear her head without Amelia's notice and sadly she met with an accident since she absent mindely walked on the road. The driver responsible for the accident, drove off to save himself and left her there.
Niel kept trying to call Ian but he wasn't picking up his phone so he had to call Anika who couldn't keep the news to herself and shared it with Bea.
