His Eagle Eyes on Me

After what Ivy said, Lucas added, "I want to focus on my career for now. Marriage is secondary until I become more successful." Hayden sneered. "Running a business isn't as simple as it seems. What if you fail or never achieve anything out of the ordinary?"

"If that happens, I won't drag Ivy down," Lucas said.

"At least you know your place."

Ivy felt as though her cheeks were on fire. "Hayden, even if Lucas fails, I won't give up on him. I won't let him go just because of his financial state."

Shelly grabbed Hayden's hand again, signaling to him to control his temper; he could be rude to others, but he could not be so demanding with Ivy.

Ivy sensed that she was slightly out of line, and her tone eased. "Hayden, we shouldn't judge people based on their wealth. Our family is rich enough, and there really aren't that many people out there who can compare to our financial state, so why does it matter how wealthy my partner is?"

"Ivy is right. Love matters most. Even if we manage to find someone wealthier than Lucas, he might not treat Ivy well, and none of it would mean anything," Shelly agreed.

"Considering my family's status, no man would dare mistreat Ivy," Hayden said.

Shelly had nothing to say; Hayden's words were true.

Regardless of whom Ivy married, they would not dare cross her because she came from a wealthy family.

Ivy voiced her thoughts: "Others may be kind to me because my family is powerful, but Lucas sees more in me than that."

"A wealthier man can provide you with a better life," Hayden said.

"Hayden, I'm not afraid of hardships. Right now, I can support myself. If Lucas Can't make ends meet, I will go out and work while he takes care of the household."

Hayden was left speechless, and Shelly could not help but laugh.

Lucas, on the other hand, blushed.

A waiter approached their table with dishes, and Ivy immediately said, "Hayden, Shelly, please try the food and see how it tastes."

Hayden and Shelly picked up their spoon and began to eat, with Ivy doing the same.

Just then, Lucas spoke up, "If I can't succeed, I won't marry Ivy."

Although Ivy did not care about Lucas' financial status and was even willing to support him, Lucas could not accept that.

"All right. Set a deadline. We can't have Ivy waiting for you indefinitely," Hayden said and set his spoon down to look at Lucas. "Three years," Lucas said.

"Three years iş acceptable, but you

"Hayden, Lucas came back to Taronia because his mother fell ill. He was originally going to start his business in Edelweiss," Ivy explained.

eat!" Shelly felt that Hayden was coming on a bit too strong; from her perspective, Lucas was a great young man who was responsible, capable, and had a sense of duty.
