Chapter 203 Ivy's Plan

The Yates Group crisis got resolved and quickly became a hot topic.

#Queen of Firostan Withdraws Appeal Against the Yates Group, Crisis Averted, Kelsey Offers Three Billion-dollar Orders to the Yates Group but Gets Rejected. What Do You Think?#

People were buzzing in the comments.

[Is Ethan crazy? How could he turn down such valuable projects?]

[Ethan showed his dignity and integrity.]

Opinions were split, and netizens were debating fiercely.

At the Xavier family home, Ivy had mixed feelings after seeing the news.

"Dad, I can't believe the Yates Group dodged a bullet. Ethan is so smart; nothing can stump him."

She felt proud of Ethan but also worried about angering him with her recent actions.

"Will he hate me for what I did?"

Her father, Lucas, replied, "I didn't see this coming either! Has Ethan called you?"

Ivy shook her head.

Lucas thought for a moment and said, "Maybe he doesn't know yet that Michael ended up in the ICU because of me. Here's what you should do..."

He whispered a plan to Ivy, who nodded and gave him a thumbs up.

"Dad, you're the smartest in our family!"

They shared a sly smile.

At the hospital, James visited Michael daily. After a few days in the ICU, Michael was moved to a VIP room. When he woke up groggily, James was there.

"Dad, you're finally awake!"

"Yeah," Michael responded drowsily.

"I'll call the doctor."

"No need. I know my body; I'm fine."

Michael noticed James's excitement and asked, "What's the good news? You seem happy."

James said, "Dad, Ethan is in Ferndale. He must have successfully negotiated with Kelsey. She withdrew the appeal against the Yates Group."

Michael's face lit up. "That's great!"

"And there's more! Kelsey wants to give the Yates Group three billion-dollar orders!"

Michael frowned instead of looking thrilled.

"Unfortunately, Ethan rejected all these orders. The internet is buzzing about it. Look."

James showed him the headline news.

Michael, suspecting Kelsey's ulterior motives, felt relieved that Ethan didn't accept the orders.

"No need to look. Ethan made the right choice. We've been tricked once; we can't let it happen again."

"Tricked? Isn't this a good thing?"

James couldn't grasp the situation like Ethan and Michael.

"You fool! You graduated from a proper university, how can you not see this?"

Michael explained, "The Yates Group has already been tricked by Kelsey. If we don't accept her orders, she can't mess with us again."

James nodded, half understanding. "I see... But why would Kelsey want to mess with us? We have no grudges against her!"

Michael was silent for a moment. "I have no idea."

They fell into silence until James's phone rang. Seeing the caller ID, James's expression turned serious.

"Dad, I'll take this call outside."
