Chapter 1153 Too Busy To Be Distracted

Author: Deer
“What do you mean by that?” Lyla did not know if Ivanka was telling her the truth, or if she meant the opposite. Lyla’s heart clenched tightly. She did not look away but kept staring at Ivanka’s face. Lyla did not want to miss a single emotion that showed up on her face.

Ivanka chuckled. “What do you think?”

After muttering the words, she was in no hurry to say more.

Since Lyla and her group had been unkind to her first, Ivanka naturally returned them the same favor. It was simply a wishful thought to hope they would change for the better with kindness. If Ivanka did that, she would rather commit suicide.

Lyla frowned deeply. She was already in a bad mood. Upon hearing Ivanka’s words, her mood turned even foul.

“Iv, what’s wrong with you today? Why are you keeping me in suspense? What happened outside?”

Ivanka tidied her hair and said lackadaisically, “Indeed, something you’re unaware of has happened. In fact, Uncle Theodore has hid it from you for most of your life.”

    Ivanka raised an eyebrow. “Really?” Lyla fell speechless. She grew increasingly worried with Ivanka’s increasingly nonchalant manner. She sensed that something was wrong somewhere. Yet she did not know what it was. Ivanka’s current look inevitably made her have negative thoughts. She could not stop herself from having all kinds of negative thoughts. The feeling grew worse to the extent that she did not know how to keep her composure. Lyla looked at Ivanka anxiously. Ivanka chuckled and said in a light tone, “Aunt Lyla, I always believe that you’re a smart lady. You can scheme people without making them realize all the while. Why did you become this when it comes to things like that?” At that, Ivanka paused for a moment. There was a hint of disdain and disbelief in her tone. Lyla’s expression turned dark and frowned deeply. At that moment, she decided to stop talking in riddles with Ivanka. Ivanka’s words had shaken her faith. She stared at Ivanka. “Iv, what exactly are yo

    Lyla looked startled. Impossible! This was impossible! The next second, she shook her head and said unhappily, “Iv, stop that. If not, I’ll get really angry.” “I purposely came all the way here to tell you the news. Do you think there’s a need for me to play tricks?” Ivanka looked at Lyla with a smile, but it did not reach her eyes. The more Ivanka said, the more anxious Lyla grew. Lyla frowned as she stared at her. “All things need to be supported with evidence. I won’t believe in empty words.” Despite being unhappy, Lyla was both scared and wanted to know the truth. She hoped that Ivanka was giving empty words without evidence. If this were the past, Lyla would think that Ivanka was giving her empty words. However, Ivanka had changed. She had changed so much that she was no longer an innocent lady like before. Ivanka must have had solid evidence to say that to Lyla. Still, Lyla refused to believe her. Lyla believed Ivanka made up the story because she was a top-tier hacke

    The corners of Ivanka’s lips curled upward. “Did you recall something?” Ivanka did not simply choose the photos. She only chose the significant ones. That day was Theodore’s birthday. Lyla took a leave to prepare a delicious meal for him. Lyla remembered waking up early in the morning to prepare for his birthday meal. After they ate their breakfast, Lyla said, “Hubby, today is your birthday. Come back early. I’ll prepare a sumptuous dinner for you.” Theodore looked a little stunned. The next moment, he smiled. “Never mind. I still have other things to handle. It’s just a birthday. It’s no longer important to me. I already had a scrumptious breakfast this morning. You don’t need to work so hard to prepare dinner for me tonight. I may need to work late and not come back tonight. You can have dinner with Chiara.” Lyla frowned. “Are you sure you’re not coming back tonight? It’s your birthday, after all.” Theodore sighed. “Sigh. There’s too much work at the company. I’ve no ch

    Lyla turned to Ivanka in puzzlement. Despite this, she really wanted to know what Ivanka was about to say. “I’ll show you the photos with significant dates. Look, Uncle Theodore spent most of his time outside during festive seasons. He often told you that he had something else to handle in the company, so he couldn’t accompany you and Chiara. You never suspected him in the past. As you recall them now, don’t you realize something was off about him?” Lyla was silent. She bit her bottom lip tightly. “Besides, his mistress bought him the checkered shirt as a birthday gift. I remember he used to hate this type of shirt the most. But he eagerly put it on. Don’t you think the mistress means so much more to him than you?” As she said the final sentence, Ivanka gave Lyla a mocking smile. Lyla’s face gradually turned white. His body became tense, and she clenched her fists. She felt horrible. It was clear to see that Lyla more or less believed what Ivanka had said to her with the ph

    “No!” Lyla screamed heart-wrenchingly. Her eyes were filled with incredulity. How could this be possible?! Why did Chiara have to come to this state?! No! This was not true! “Could this be part of Chiara’s plan?” Lyla remembered that Ivanka had pushed Chiara to a state where she had no choice but to resort to the last step. Lyla thought. “Could this be one of the schemes between Chiara and the mysterious person?” She remembered the mysterious person had promised to give Chiara a new identity. Lyla gradually calmed down. She seemed to know what was going on. Ivanka narrowed her eyes and noticed that her expression kept changing. Even though Lyla kept her expression well hidden, Ivanka observed the slight changes. Unbeknownst to Lyla, Ivanka could tell that Chiara had not died. It was obvious to see that this was just another setup. Ivanka did not come to visit Lyla to prove anything. Even without seeing Lyla’s expression, Ivanka knew that Chiara could not have died

    With just a sentence like this, she already did not know what else to say. It was as if she was waiting for Ivanka to continue. Lyla did not even dare to keep her emotions under too much control. She was in a state of absolute panic. Her brain was messed up from panic, and she could not think through anything. The main point was that Ivanka was here. She did not dare to expose her emotions. This would only let Ivanka see through her all the more. Ivanka was too smart and too scary! “You don’t have to pretend. I’m aware of a lot of things. This includes Chiara faking her death and keeping it from you because she’s worried that she might be seen in this place.” Lyla was shocked! This despicable person! Lyla did not dare to show too much of her thoughts. Instead, she shook her head, puzzled. “What’s going on? Iv, what do you mean by Chiara faking her death? Is she still alive?” When she spoke of the latter, Lyla still looked a bit hopeful. However, she did not dare to have to

    “He had never kept his misdeeds under wraps properly. Haven’t you realized that he’s the one who always ends up exposing the things you did?” Lyla’s expression changed. She could only play dumb and act in disbelief as she shook her head. “Iv, what the hell are you talking about? I really don’t understand what you’re talking about…” Ivanka sneered. “As long as Theodore is around, you all will keep losing. He has a family outside, yet you are suffering on his behalf here. Your daughter is barely even a person now. By the way, I already know of her new identity. In fact, I learned of it through your husband. Don’t you think I’m amazing?” “If this continues, Theodore will only become a burden to you. If you want to succeed, you can only let Theodore get the legal judgment he deserves, not you… You’re here spending your days in torment without knowing how miserable it really is outside.” Lyla’s face was a little pale. She did not know what to say. The irritation inside her was gro

    “Things are going as per usual, but now there’s a new piece of the drama—Chiara’s death.” Ivanka picked up her cutlery and put a small piece of food into her mouth. “Oh?” Sandy scoffed. “She did that? What’s Lyla’s reaction to that? Did she cry and throw a tantrum?” “She’s really smart and figured out that this was a whole act really quickly. Her acting is really convincing too.” Sandy sneered. “B*stards! Let’s quickly figure out something and let her stay behind bars forever! Not having to die after murdering someone is pretty good too, don’t you think? We’ll just let her be imprisoned for life! This kind of torture is worse than death! Living a life that is worse than death is the best revenge!”Ivanka smiled. “I’ll do my best.”Sandy laughed out loud. “Have you eaten yet, Bestie?”“I’m eating.”“Yeah, I’m eating too. Let’s talk while eating.” After Sandy finished talking, she put on her headphones. This made it easier for her to eat.After swallowing, she started to talk

    Instead, she remained standing in front of Jimothy and studied the group of men with a smile.“He works at our company. Since I’ve run into him, I’m obligated to come over and check on him. Pray tell, what has happened between you and why do you feel the need to resolve it with violence?”Jimothy stared at Candice while she stood with her back facing him. The look in his eyes was conflicted.The men exchanged glances with each other and saw a hint of astonishment in one another’s eyes.The man at the front of the group, who was likely their leader, said, “We just get paid to do this, lady. You should stay out of it.”When Candice heard his advice which also sounded like a threat, she did not intend to back down at all. Instead, she asked him, “Oh? How much did you get for this? I’ll pay you double. I just told you that this guy works for us, so I have to intervene.”The leader started laughing, and so did the men behind him. They did not even bother to hide the mockery in their t

    Candice ordered some food she liked, and the dishes arrived soon after.Sandy suggested that they all took a picture together.The others did not object.Sandy gave her phone to the waiter.Then the five of them moved their chairs to sit in a row.Michael and Ivan each took the outermost seats.Naturally, Ivanka was seated next to Michael while Sandy, who paid for the dinner, was right beside her.Next to Sandy was Candice, who sat awkwardly in her chair. Ivan was beside Candice.The second the waiter took the picture, Ivanka and Michael exchanged glances inadvertently. Meanwhile, Ivan stared past Candice, and his eyes fell on Sandy.Sandy and Candice were the only people who looked into the camera.But each and every one of them had a genuine smile on their face.Once they had taken a picture, they started eating together.It was a nice, relaxing dinner. They did not talk about work or how annoying Coco had been.They mostly chatted about the fun anecdotes they had he

    The call was soon answered, but the person who picked up was not Rosie. It was Mrs. Ruth.“Ms. Lane, you finally called! Mdm. Barkworth will be over the moon when she wakes up!” Mrs. Ruth sounded quite excited as she spoke.Ivanka smiled and asked, “Is Grandma resting now?”“Yeah, she hasn’t had a good rest after learning that you’d be kidnapped. Once you were safe, she finally allowed herself to rest.”Ivanka nodded and told Mrs. Ruth to take good care of Rosie. She later said that she and Micheal would visit Rosie soon.With that, she hung up the phone.Meanwhile, she also reflected upon herself.Rosie had gotten old, yet Ivanka always made her worry. From that moment on, Ivanka would consider the consequences before making any decision. It was not only for the sake of herself, but the important people in her life, who also cared about her.As she contemplated this, Ivanka inevitably thought of the gathering. It would be quite fun.Before they were about to get off work, San

  • Love Mission: Pursuing My Stunning Ex-Wife   Chapter 1977 Gathering

    Coco practically ran out crying.Candice glanced at Ivanka worriedly and asked, “Will something bad happen to her?”Ivanka was not concerned at all. “What could possibly happen? She is an adult. Even if something bad happens, she has to bear the consequences of her own action.”Hearing that, Candice no longer fretted over the matter.She was not really worried about Coco. She was just afraid that something would happen to Coco, and Ivanka would be blamed for it.But Ivanka had made a good point. Candice did not want to trouble herself with Coco’s matters. It would only be an unnecessary emotional burden to her.Everyone in the office began discussing the progress of their project.Perhaps it was because Ivanka had made an example of Coco, the other employees became especially energized and diligent during their discussion.They were even more focused than before, since they were all afraid that Ivanka would treat them harshly as well.Hence, they were particularly efficient.

    “Why don’t we leave now so that you can deal with this matter, Ms. Ivanka?”The director of the project department, who was perceptive and shrewd, planned to leave right then. Ivanka shook her head and signaled everyone to sit down.They were all uneasy, and they kept giving Coco weird looks.Two people had dared speak to Ivanka like that in the past—Ferris and Mandy.But those two were no longer with the company.At the thought of those people, the project department staff began looking at Coco with pity.However, Coco could not care less. All she wanted was to make a fuss.She wanted to see how shameless Ivanka could be.Unruffled, Ivanka stared at her. She did not get angry and seemed rather affable as she asked, “Tell me what upset you. Have we falsely accused you of something you didn’t do?”Before Coco said anything, Ivanka added cruelly, “Oh, I forgot that you aren’t familiar with the protocol here, so you have no idea what you did wrong, right?”Coco paled.

    Candice was momentarily stunned by his answer. She was a little offended.“Then why did you come to my office for this conversation?” Jimothy’s grin was mischievous. “To prove your company’s HR is blind, and you just lost a great talent. That’s all.”With that, Jimothy stood up, dusted off his sleeves dramatically, and turned to leave.“Your resume!” Candice called after him.Jimothy waved dismissively without looking back. “Keep it. Enjoy reading it. And don’t let an incompetent HR handle your interviews again.”Candice stood there for a moment and processed the scene before an involuntary chuckle escaped her lips. This one had personality.Regardless, the incident served as a wake-up call for Candice.It became glaringly clear that Coco was not only incompetent but also prone to overestimating her abilities.Before the task was assigned, she had the chance to decline. Candice had given her the opportunity and explicitly asked if she could handle it. Yet, Coco confidentl

    The college student finally believed her and walked toward Candice.On the other hand, Coco seemed guilty and was desperate to prevent it. “He has no respect for our company! Are you really going to hire someone like him who won’t follow orders?” Coco’s tone was sharp. Her finger trembled as she pointed at the young man.She scanned the room for backup in hopes that the people who had been flattering her earlier would speak up in her defense.Unfortunately, no one stepped forward.Those who flattered Coco only did so out of respect for Ivanka. Yet Candice had a close relationship with Ivanka and was the company’s vice president.The gap between a vice president versus an intern was as vast as night and day.Anyone with common sense knew where to align themselves.Coco felt a mix of despair and resentment.Candice ignored her entirely. Why Ivanka was so wary of someone as clueless as this was beyond her comprehension.Coco was simply dumb.Without wasting another thought o

    However, reality proved she had worried for nothing.Candice had called her over merely to ask if she had the most basic professional knowledge and whether she could handle the afternoon’s interview.Coco let out a deep sigh of relief before patting her chest confidently and assuring Candice she was more than capable.Knowing Coco came from the mountains, Candice was naturally skeptical, so she asked again, “Are you sure?”Coco thought to herself that it was just an interview. All she needed to do was just ask the candidates some questions. They could just choose someone who wrote the resume well.Not wanting to embarrass herself in front of Michael’s cousin, Coco pretended to be confident and accepted the task.Candice was half-doubtful, yet she still gave her instructions and let her go.However, Coco’s firm assurance eventually led to trouble....“Your company must be a joke to hire someone like you for HR.

    Word quickly spread within the HR department. After learning about Coco’s connection to Ivanka, some colleagues were vying to curry favor with her.Although some observant individuals noticed that the relationship between Coco and Ivanka was not as harmonious as it seemed, it did not deter the opportunists. Relentless flattery and attention poured in.One moment, a male coworker would offer to grab her food while placing his own lunch order. Next, a female coworker would ask if she wanted to order some coffee too.At first, Coco was caught off guard and politely declined. However, as she realized their intentions were purely self-serving, she began to accept their gestures without hesitation.By midday, Coco had become the department’s little queen. Ironically, as an intern, she should have been the one fetching coffee, running errands and collecting mail. Instead, she had colleagues practically lining up to do those tasks for her.Coco quickly assembled her own little e
