“Click and watch it.” Lyla looked at her phone, and Chiara obediently clicked on it.

At that moment, a reporter could not hold back and immediately spoke up.

“Ms. Lane, I heard you got together with Mr. Sadler after you divorced Mr. Barkworth. Are you going to marry Mr. Sadler?”

Chiara sneered. “Ivanka reaps what she sows. She’ll eventually ruin her reputation.”

Lyla also sneered. “She is nothing without her father’s help. She is Iris, but so what? Mr. Barkworth didn’t even bat an eye at her.”

Chiara’s smile froze, and she frowned. She thought. “He did the same to me.”

Lyla noticed Chiara was sad, so she quickly diverted her attention. “Let’s watch the live broadcast first.”

In the live broadcast, another reporter asked, “Ms. Lane, you dated Mr. Sadler secretly before the divorce. Is Mr. Sadler the reason for your divorce? Did you cheat on Mr. Barkworth?”

Chiara’s mood immediately improved. She sneered and awaited the performance.

    Ivanka calmly said, “We don’t love each other anymore.”The reporter who asked the question was overjoyed and hurriedly asked, “Is it because of your cousin?”Chiara quickly gripped the phone tightly and stared at the person on the screen.Lyla also frowned slightly. “Will Ivanka seize this opportunity and talk bad about you?”Chiara’s expression darkened. “I’m not afraid of her badmouthing me. On the contrary, I’m afraid if she doesn’t do so.”Lyla’s eyes shot up to look at Chiara. “Why?”Chiara tightened her grip on the phone in annoyance. “If she slanders me, I can hire ghostwriters and have everyone scold Ivanka because I have an angelic image.”Lyla understood what she was saying and nodded in agreement. “You’re absolutely correct. But if she praises you, won’t it put you in a difficult position?”“Ivanka is much smarter than before!” Chiara gritted her teeth. “Let’s watch for now. I hope she can say I was mean to her.”Sandy stood behind Ivanka, perplexed. She thought. “

    They heard that Chiara was well-educated and kind, but apparently…However, some people did not trust Ivanka. Was Ivanka possibly jealous of Michael’s kindness to his savior, so she was deliberately badmouthing her?While everyone had different speculations, Ivanka said in a low voice, “After we divorced, Chiara was sad because she thought we divorced because of her. She was sad and said several times that she should not have woken up and even contemplated suicide.”Everyone was a little surprised. “Ms. Lane is actually blaming herself for it!”“Yeah, I heard that Ms. Lane is a kind-hearted person.”Sandy was about to gag. However, she knew what Ivanka was doing and stepped forward. The reporters noticed she wanted to speak and immediately turned their cameras to her.Chiara was about to go crazy at this moment. When she saw Sandy, she angrily said, “What is Sandy trying to do?!”Sandy nodded in agreement. “That’s right. Chiara is a kind beauty. Since I’m Iv’s friend, I met Chia

    Everyone could not forget what Ivanka said next.Ivanka sighed and said, “But Chiara had made up her mind. She stated unequivocally that she will not be the source of contention. She would rather not marry and die alone than marry Mr. Barkworth. She stated that she will not play the villain and have people believe she is a mistress who becomes the legal wife.”Chiara was shocked.“Oh lord, Chiara is indeed a smart woman! She knows that if she marries Mr. Barkworth, it’ll hurt Ivanka, and everyone will think that she has done something wrong.”“That’s right. I admire Chiara for having such generosity. If I were Chiara, I might not have been able to be as open-minded as her. In fact, it’s best not to get married. People would only belittle her if she marries Mr. Barkworth. After all, Mr. Barkworth had been taking care of her when she was in a coma, and he would spend time with her before the divorce. If she marries Mr. Barkworth, she’ll be the mistress who becomes the legal wife.”“

    Chiara was furious.“She has ruined my chances! How am I going to marry Michael?”Lyla seemed agitated. She had not expected Ivanka to act in this manner. At that moment, she understood how terrible it was to shoot oneself in the foot.Chiara had created a selfless image in order to make others like her, but she had never expected this to happen.Ivanka told reporters right afterward that if Chiara married Michael, she would be the mistress who became the legal wife.“What’s done is done. Chiara, calm down. We still have alternative options.”Chiara clenched her hands in frustration. She was nervous for the first time in a long while.“She must have done it on purpose! She purposefully drew the attention of the reporters!” said Lyla.Chiara turned to face Lyla. “Did you say we still have other options, Mom?”Lyla let out a sigh. “The only way forward is for the Barkworth family to find a way to clarify that you will marry Michael for a good reason. You must uphold the image th

    Ivan smiled as he glanced at the guy next to him. He was not paying attention, so he did not notice it until Xander gave him a warning signal.He thought today would be an excellent day to provoke someone.He saw Michael glancing silently at the video.“Before the divorce, Ms. Lane, you secretly dated Mr. Sadler. Is Mr. Sadler to blame for your divorce? Did you cheat on Mr. Barkworth?”Michael’s eyes sharpened suddenly.Ivanka used to be a good girl, and he assumed she would never cause a problem. When Jonah discovered she was Iris, she jumped to his aid without hesitation. She accompanied him to the dinner and publicly requested a divorce.He got the impression that Ivanka had decided to divorce him.He focused his attention on the beautiful woman in the video. She had a frosty expression on her face.“If you want to interview me, you can ask me questions, but keep in mind that I am also Iris. I have the legal right to sue you and make you pay for what you said.”Ivan gave a

    The video had finished playing. The more Ivanka shone, the darker Michael’s expression grew.Ivan found it amusing. “Michael, be honest with me. Did you fall in love with Ivanka?”Michael was startled. He thought. “Do I like Ivanka?”He sneered the next moment. “How could I possibly like her?”He thought. “She acted recklessly, disregarded the reputation of the Barkworth family, and opposed me. How could I fall in love with that woman?“No, it’s impossible.”Ivan was speechless.He stared blankly at Michael. Although he said nothing, his expression indicated that he did not believe it. He thought. “Okay, I know you’re a proud person. If you don’t want to admit it, that’s fine, but I know you like her.”Michael was at a loss for words.Ivan raised his eyebrows. “And how about Chiara? Will you marry her? Ivanka must have regarded Chiara as her enemy. Are you planning on marrying her? If you marry her, the situation may worsen. Everyone will probably say that Chiara is a mistress

    They entered the room together.At that point, many guests had arrived, and many were looking at the door. That way, they could immediately fawn over any important people who walked through the door.Everyone looked at the door and saw two women walking in together.On the left was a woman in a light blue strapless dress. The dress was simple, with a few stripes and little decoration. She was wearing a necklace with blue gemstones. The gemstone was not particularly dazzling, but it still held everyone’s attention. It went perfectly with her dress.Ivanka already had a lovely body, and the dress brought out her best features. She shone like a star.Her curly hair cascaded down her front and back. She wore a simple hairstyle with a butterfly hair clip, which made her look ladylike and elegant. No one could ever imitate the innate nobleness she exuded.Many people found it impossible to look away.Sandy had dressed up for the occasion, too. She wore a pink gown adorned with numerou

    Those who did not know any better thought Ivanka had gone too far and criticized her actions. However, people who were part of the circle knew what was going on.“It’s not all about how you look. They didn’t get married because of Ivanka’s beauty. Besides, do you even know who Ivanka is as a person? We can never fully understand a person. We don’t know her well because we don’t see her often.”They always wore masks when they met new people, so they knew nothing about each other.“Alas, if I were a man, I would pursue her. She’s so beautiful!”“Pfft, a beautiful woman like her is trouble. She’ll cause problems for everyone around her. Throughout history, beauties never ended up well.”While the guests were discussing animatedly among themselves, someone excitedly said, “The show has started!”The others were perplexed, but they kept looking at the door. Their eyes lit up when they saw the three people walk in.Theodore, Lyla, and Chiara were the three.Chiara’s gown was not as

    Ivanka frowned deeply. Michael was in a horrible state. He had been poisoned and suffered gunshots. He had a strong tolerance to medicine and pain. But it was his mental condition that caused him to fall into this state. Not being fully recovered also added to the burden. Ivanka gave him a white pill which she had formulated by herself. After that, she had the security guard carry Michael into her car. Then, she sent him to the hospital. They arrived at the emergency department. Xavier had finished attending to his patients. When he walked out of his office, he saw Michael being carried into the hospital. He then saw Ivanka beside Michael. Xavier frowned. His expression became tense, and he asked solemnly, “What’s happened to him?” “He’s weak and had previously been poisoned. Since you’re around, you can look after him.” Ivanka summarized Michael’s condition. After hearing Ivanka’s brief explanation, Xavier gave Michael a checklist and put him on a drip. After that,

    Since Jonah had come to this and Ivanka was not an ungrateful person, she nodded and gave her word. “Jonah, I’ll give this my all. Don’t worry. As long as it’s within my ability, I’ll help you.” Jonah had to be bound to the wheelchair at the moment. Since Ivanka had shared a similar experience when she took over Lane’s Group back then, she naturally figured out how wolfish and greedy his adversaries would be. Jonah was injured because of her. She swore to give her all to save him from whatever crisis he was facing. Jonah took advantage of this and asked, “What time are you coming tomorrow? I’ll have my assistant get ready.” Ivanka thought for a moment. “Tomorrow afternoon.” She needed to manage her company affairs during the first half of the day. Jonah was content upon hearing her answer. “Good. I’ll wait for you tomorrow.” “Okay.” Ivanka nodded before hanging up. When she returned to her office, she did not expect to see Michael sitting on the couch. She nearly jum

    There was only one possibility. Ivanka was calling somebody else. Michael wondered who could strike up such a long conversation with her. Sandy and Ivan had returned to the country. Ivanka’s besties were around her. Even if Ivanka deliberately approached Chiara, she could not possibly have so much to chat with Chiara. If Ivanka’s phone call was business related, there was no need to chat this long. Michael eliminated the possible reasons one by one. In the end, he thought of Jonah. Michael’s expression instantly turned as dark as thunderclouds. His gaze was dull and cold. Evan noticed it. He also saw the call record on Michael’s phone. Evan quickly persuaded Michael, “Mr. Barkworth, Ms. Lane could be tied up with her work, so she couldn’t answer your call. We could go to her workplace now.” Michael said nothing. He gave a cold glance at Evan. Evan got a shock. The next second, Michael turned around and left his office. Looking at Michael’s fading silhouette, Evan wi

    It was why Ivanka still came for Jonah in spite of her unpleasant experience with Margaret in the hospital last time. Jonah had been injured because of Ivanka. She came for him only. The other people did not matter to her. Jonah’s heart sank upon hearing her words. His expression tensed up. He could imagine the indifferent look on Ivanka’s face right at that moment. She had that expression on her face simply because he was never really important to her. Jonah was upset precisely because of her indifference to him. He wanted to say something to her but did not know how to begin. He was also not in the position to say that. It did not take long before Ivanka’s gentle but rather indifferent voice rang in his ears, “Jonah, don’t worry. I’ll treat your legs until they recover. Don’t run into any conflicts with your mom because of me.” Her words pulled Jonah’s wandering mind back into the present moment. He felt a heavy weight on his heart. “Iv, I trust you. You don’t need to

    Margaret became frustrated and grabbed Ivanka. She could not understand why Ivanka was fine while Jonah ended up in such a bad situation after the accident.Then, Jonah defended Ivanka. There was also all the talk about Ivanka’s treatment. Margaret was curious to see what kind of miracle medicine Ivanka could develop.In the end, Ivanka’s treatment did not work. Moreover, her relationship with Jonah, which had finally started to improve, was once again ruined because of Ivanka.Jonah scoffed. “Mom, I’m not an eight-year-old anymore. You’re saying all this because you want me to go along with your plans for an arranged date, right?”Margaret had not expected Jonah to guess her thoughts. She was about to insist on her point when Jonah spoke first. With a mocking smile, he said sarcastically, “Do you think anyone would date someone like me?”He had a point. But Laura might be one such person.However, Margaret did not like her. She would do anything to keep Laura from becoming her d

    “That’s because you want him to fall in love with you!” Margaret snapped.Ivanka chuckled softly. Her tone was edged with sarcasm. “Love? Does it really matter that much?”Margaret felt humiliated and furious. She pointed a finger at Ivanka’s face with a hostile expression. “If it doesn’t matter, why are you doing all this? Stop pretending, Ivanka!”Ivanka let out a bitter laugh. “Pretending? What am I pretending for? Is being divorced a crime? Margaret, you’re a woman too. How would you feel if someone accused you like this?”She hoped Margaret would take a moment to reflect. After all, she was Jonah’s mother, and Ivanka did not want their conflict to escalate.But Margaret was unmoved. Her glare turned colder, sharper, and filled with hatred.“You think I’ll just let this go?” Margaret said sharply. “If it weren’t for you, Jonah wouldn’t be in this mess! I meant every word I said, and nothing will change that.”To her, Ivanka was nothing more than someone scheming to use Jonah

    “Ivanka,” Margaret took a deep breath while trying to compose herself. When she looked at Ivanka again, her expression was calm. She said, “I don’t know how deep Jonah’s feelings for you run. What I fear most is that once he becomes fixated on you, that’s it. When he falls for someone, his heart won’t make room for anyone else. In that way, he’s just like his father.”Ivanka’s gaze wavered. She bit her lip and was unsure of what to say.“I beg you, don’t hurt Jonah anymore!” Margaret’s voice carried a note of desperation.Ivanka’s expression turned extremely complicated.There was a time when Jonah came to her only to use her. Back then, they were both using each other. It made things simple.But later, Jonah unexpectedly started talking about marriage. Perhaps it was to provoke Michael, or perhaps he simply wanted to keep her close because she was useful to him.At some point, though, it seemed Jonah had become serious about her. She could not pinpoint when it happened. Perhaps

    Jonah frowned in clear disagreement, but he stayed silent. Ivanka’s confident smile reassured him and made him trust her.Eventually, he let go of her wrist.Ivanka noticed Margaret putting on her shoes. She quickly followed, stepping outside just as Margaret was about to get into her car“Margaret,” she called out.Margaret frowned slightly and stood still.Since Jonah had not come out with Ivanka, she decided she could spare a moment to speak with her.She turned and looked at Ivanka coldly.Ivanka softened her tone. “Let’s take a walk.”Margaret did not respond, but her silence was enough of an agreement.They walked slowly around the edge of the mansion. The surrounding area was all part of the Sadler family estate.Margaret suppressed her anger and glanced at Ivanka before speaking in a composed tone, “Alright. What do you want to say?”Ivanka met her gaze briefly before looking ahead and said, “Do you know what will happen if Jonah’s coughing continues?”Margaret’s he

    Margaret glared at Ivanka and scoffed, “If there’s an issue, I’ll get another doctor to handle it. It’ll be anyone but you, Ivanka. Haven’t I made myself clear enough? I’ve told you this before.”She hated how Ivanka ignored her warnings and kept coming back to visit Jonah time and again. What if Jonah got too close to her and ended up ruining his reputation? If Jonah had not been here, Margaret would have been even harsher.Ivanka frowned as she met Margaret’s sharp gaze. “I’ve never tried to get close to Jonah like that. We’re just friends. I know I’m not good enough for him, so I’ve never even thought about it.”“You might not have, but he has!” Margaret snapped, raising her voice.“Mom!” Jonah’s expression darkened.Jonah was usually calm and polite. This was the first time Ivanka saw him looking so upset and was about to lose his temper.Ivanka’s eyes flickered with hesitation. She was unsure of what to say.Explaining Jonah’s coughing would do no good. Margaret would not
