**TITLE: My Dad Please Come 1125**
**Chapter 1125**

As Ivy finished her sentence, an acute pang shot through her jaw, the result of Nathan’s tightening grip, his fingers digging into her skin with an intensity that sent a jolt of discomfort coursing through her.

“You’re hurting me,” she protested, her voice a mix of annoyance and pain as she instinctively pushed against him, trying to create some distance.

A flicker of irritation crossed Nathan’s features, but it was quickly replaced by a smirk that suggested he found some twisted amusement in her discomfort. “Good. You deserve it. Just deal with it,” he replied, his tone laced with a condescending edge.

Ivy felt a wave of frustration wash over her, leaving her momentarily speechless. What was he trying to prove? If her desire for a child wasn’t so strong, she would have kicked him away without a second thought long ago.

“I already apologized to you. Are you really that protective of Lottie?” she challenged, her heart racing with a mix of anger and confusion.

“Who told you Lottie is my woman?” Nathan shot back, his eyes narrowing as if the very idea offended him.

“Everyone said so,” Ivy replied, her voice steady despite the turmoil inside her.

Nathan’s glare intensified. “If Lottie truly were my woman, is that the attitude you would take?”

Ivy blinked rapidly, trying to process his words. “What’s wrong with my attitude? Isn’t it good enough? I’m your wife, yet I still backed down for her.” The thought of Madge hearing this would have sent her into a frenzy, Ivy knew.

Nathan let out a cold, humorless laugh. “So you do remember you’re my wife. I thought you might have forgotten that little detail.”

“What are you trying to say?” Ivy snapped, her voice rising in frustration.

She genuinely had no clue what more he expected from her. After all, upon discovering that Lottie might be more than just a friend to Nathan, she had done her best to take a step back, to give him space.

Nathan’s expression darkened, his eyes boring into hers with an intensity that made her heart race. “Let me ask you something. Do you love me?”

Ivy’s lashes fluttered as she considered his question. “Yeah, I do,” she replied, her voice earnest and sincere.

“And this is what you call love? If Lottie were truly my woman, you’d just step aside and apologize to her?” Nathan’s tone was incredulous, as if he couldn’t fathom her reasoning.

Ivy stared at him, bewildered. “Of course. If she’s your woman, then I should back off. I love you, so naturally, I’d respect the people in your life. When you love someone, you embrace everything that comes with them.”

Nathan was momentarily speechless, his grip loosening as he pulled her into his embrace, wrapping his arm around her soft waist.

As their bodies pressed together, a palpable tension filled the air, crackling with warmth and an undercurrent of something far more dangerous. Ivy felt her cheeks flush with heat.

They were outside, for heaven’s sake! What was he thinking?
