Love Mission: Pursuing My Stunning Ex-Wife Chapter 145 How to Be a Conniving B*tch
Everyone had a complicated expression. Mindy appeared to acknowledge Chiara as her daughter-in-law, but Rosie did not.Rosie held a higher position in this family than Mindy.Chiara’s marriage into the Barkworth family appeared to be a challenge.Chiara, despite having a good upbringing, could not help but despise Rosie.Rosie was attempting to humiliate her in front of everyone.Chiara took a deep breath and suppressed her rage. Then, she smiled and said, “Yes, Grandma, you are not old. Uncle Jay and Aunt Mindy were just worried about you. They're scared that you’ll fall.”Mindy relaxed and returned to her senses. “Mom, you’ve always been like this,” she said with a smile. “You’re not as strong as you used to be, so you need to take care of your body.”Rosie waved her off dismissively. Everyone saw her and came over to congratulate her. They sent her their blessings, and Rosie was happy.“Hahaha, you guys made me feel like I’m only eighteen today.” Rosie sounded happier than b

Chiara took a deep breath and smiled. Then, she said, “I won’t have such thoughts.”Right then, Ivanka helped Rosie walk to the head seat and sat down.Ivanka glanced at Jay, smiled, and nodded at him.When she met Jay, she felt awkward because she did not know how to address him.Jay was not like Mindy. She had a strained relationship with Mindy and could confidently address her as Aunt Mindy.When it came to Jay, however, she was at a loss. She could not call him Dad since she and Michael had divorced, but she could not call him Uncle Jay since he was kind to her. She was afraid that calling him Uncle Jay would sound distant. In the end, she remained silent.Although she called him Dad the last time they met, it was when no one was around. She could not say it in front of so many people.Samuel finally cracked a smile after a while. When others complimented him, he smiled.Chiara subconsciously looked around. She wondered why Michael had not arrived.Rosie smiled as she held

She was ecstatic!She nearly jumped with joy.Rosie was watching the interview with Jay at the time. She smiled and said, “Did you see that? Iv still has feelings for Michael and does not want Chiara to marry him. As her grandma, I should help her.”Jay wore a puzzled expression. He knew that Rosie was playing dumb.Ivanka did this because she was upset with Chiara and Michael’s treatment of her. It was simply a form of retaliation. She had long since given up on Michael.When Jay saw that she was smiling and laughing, he did not ruin the moment by exposing her.She made the announcement without hesitation at the banquet.Jay could tell that Rosie did not want Iv to suffer. She did not want others to look down on her after she divorced Michael. Whatever happened, the Barkworth family would always be there to protect her.Michael noticed this scene as soon as he walked in.He noticed her wearing a dress that was lighter in color than the one she wore to the previous banquet.

When Rosie noticed Michael had arrived, her face darkened. “Is my birthday unimportant to you, brat? Why are you so late?”“Of course it’s important,” Michael said calmly, looking at the stunning Ivanka. “Grandma, you’re busy introducing your new granddaughter, so how can you have time to care about me?” he said dismissively.Rosie scoffed. “Don’t make fun of me, you brat. She’ll be my granddaughter and your father’s daughter from now on, so she’ll also be your sister.”Ivanka and Michael were taken aback, as were the guests.What a joke! His wife became his ex-wife and ended up being his sister. What a dramatic shift!Chiara cracked a wide smile. It was good to see Ivanka become Michael’s sister. They would never have the opportunity to get together again.She did not care what everyone thought and walked forward with a smile. “That would be fantastic! I was always concerned that Iv and Mic’s relationship would deteriorate after their divorce. It would be an ideal ending if they

He did not mind letting Ivanka sit beside Rosie since he could sit on another side.However, she had just filled both sides.Ivanka felt embarrassed and wanted to get up to give Samuel her seat. However, Rosie grabbed Ivanka’s hand and snorted coldly at Samuel. “I wouldn’t even respond to you if there weren’t so many people here. Go sit somewhere else.”Ivanka was dumbfounded.Rosie’s behavior only served to further embarrass her. She could see the rage in Samuel’s eyes. However, today was Rosie’s birthday, so she could not disobey her.Michael said nothing and sat on Rosie’s left side. When he turned his head slightly, he could see Ivanka with a troubled expression.He had never seen Ivanka react like this since the divorce. He felt a little dazed. She had completely changed.Samuel was irritated, but he did not want to argue with Rosie on her birthday. He sat next to Michael.Sandy had not yet sat down. Ivanka looked at her apologetically, but Sandy did not mind it. She point

Chiara’s gaze was reproachful. She took her hand in hers and was clearly about to speak when she was interrupted once more by Catherine. “Do I need to remind you that you saved Michael’s life? Would the Barkworths be so ungrateful in front of so many people?” Chiara’s sneer was hidden beneath her gaze. That had been the desired effect! Catherine was her pawn. Catherine’s presence saved her a lot of trouble. Catherine looked straight at Rosie as Chiara pretended to stop her. “Mdm. Barkworth.” Rosie turned around to see Catherine approaching her with a smile. “Ms. White, do you have any business with me?” she smiled, unable to turn away someone who approached with a friendly smile. Many people were looking at them. Why should they bother eating the food when they could be watching something far more entertaining? They had eaten all sorts of delicacies before. In fact, they were sick of eating it! Even though the table was laden with delicacies, it was nothing out of the ordin

Rosie chuckled. “I thought you were going to talk to me about something serious. There is nothing to be curious about. These two young ladies are very intelligent. They are well aware of my preferences. Both of their gifts must be exceptional. But, if I open it and show it to everyone, am I not comparing them?” It would be unfair to both gift-givers. Chiara dashed over and grabbed Catherine’s hand. “Catherine.” She whispered her name. Then, she looked at Rosie with a smile and said, “You are right, Grandma. Catherine just came up with that idea out of nowhere. There is no need to compare our gifts. Catherine only mentioned it because she thought it was an interesting idea. Please do not take offense.” It sounded like she was interceding for Catherine, but some wondered if Rosie was picking favorites. “Is Ivanka’s gift unpresentable?” they wondered. “Is she trying to save her from embarrassment?” Rosie was irritated to see Chiara digging a hole for Ivanka. She had faith in I

Mr. Harvey responded and went to the gift room. Everyone was eager to see what was going to happen. Ivanka and Chiara were more than just sisters; one was Michael’s ex-wife, and the other was his current girlfriend. The problem was that both his ex-wife and current girlfriend had a close relationship with the Barkworths. They each had their own group of supporters. Rosie and Jay backed Ivanka, while Samuel and Mindy backed Chiara. Chiara was Michael’s lifesaver. Chiara would win in the end, no matter what the crowd thought, but she had stated that she would never marry Michael, making it a difficult situation. It was a chaotic situation overall. Everyone was expecting a drama. There had been major drama after major drama since Michael and Ivanka’s divorce. Chiara did not take a seat and instead stood on the side, as she needed to get her own gift. Catherine’s eyes were full of confidence. She cast a glance at Ivanka. She looked at her like she was going to fail misera

Ivanka and Candice got into the car together.Candice instinctively took the front passenger seat while Ivanka and Michael sat in the back.The car moved smoothly toward the family mansion.Michael glanced at Ivanka and noticed her fiddling with her phone. Quickly, he leaned over, cast a shadow over her, and snatched the phone from her hand.“You’ll get carsick.”Ivanka frowned. Her gaze locked on Michael as she extended her hand. “Give it back.”Michael did not budge. Ivanka raised her voice a little. “Give it back. I’m in the middle of something important.”Michael’s striking eyes fixed on her. It was as if he could see right through her.“What’s so urgent? Isn’t it just about someone poaching employees from your company? Do you really need to spend all your time resolving it?”Ivanka’s brows furrowed even tighter.From the front seat, Candice turned around to look at Michael in surprise. “Michael, you know who is behind this?”Michael glanced at Ivanka and said, “Not on
Love Mission: Pursuing My Stunning Ex-Wife Chapter 1831 The Mystery Caller
It was perhaps because Ivanka was so outstanding that Candice never saw her as a peer but rather as a role model.Being praised by someone she admired so deeply was naturally a source of great joy.But Candice never said these feelings out loud, nor would she.Ivanka patted her on the shoulder. “Good job. Now get back to work and start getting comfortable in your new role. On Friday evening, Michael and I will help you with your move.”Candice nodded. She had no objections to the arrangement.For some reason, the previous incident had made its way to Rosie’s ears. Rosie had insisted that Candice move into the family’s mansion.Unable to find a reason to refuse or to push back further, Candice reluctantly agreed.“Then you and Michael will be staying for dinner at the family mansion on Friday, right?”Ivanka nodded, figuring they would likely need to stay the night as well.“Don’t overthink it for now. Get back to work, and just wait for me after work on Friday.” Candice no

“One more thing, these are my team members. They’ve seen firsthand how you’ve tried to suppress me all the time. A little payback from them isn’t exactly unjustified, don’t you think?”Before Mandy could say anything, Candice turned to the employee and instructed firmly, “Call security. Have them escort her out of the building. Make sure she doesn’t take anything that doesn’t belong to her. Thoroughly check her devices for any company files.”Mandy completely lost her composure and started yelling.“Who do you think you are to treat me like this? You’re just riding on Ivanka’s coattails! Everyone knows how someone so young became CEO. And you? Are you sticking by her? You’re no better than… Argh!”Before Mandy could finish her tirade, Candice delivered a resounding slap across her face.Not far away, Ivanka, who had come out after hearing the commotion to see if she needed to step in, slowed her steps. While leaning casually against a nearby column, she watched Candice handle the

“I understand what you mean now.” Candice’s cheeks flushed with excitement. The gloom that had previously clouded her was swept away.Her joy was genuine. She said, “In three months’ time, I’ll secure this position and prove to you and the board that your decision was the right one.”With that, Candice stood, gave Ivanka a respectful bow, and left the office.Ivanka watched her leave with a smile.All was good.While the two of them were in good spirits, someone else’s mood was far from pleasant.Mandy returned to her office, humiliated, to pack her belongings.If she could turn back time, she might have chosen not to come at all. The shame she endured was beyond anything she could have imagined.Somehow, word of what happened in the conference room had leaked. Perhaps Ivanka had orchestrated it.When she arrived at her office, she was not surprised to see all her belongings stuffed into a tattered, broken box.The box had been placed right outside her office door. It was a

“Mr. Clarke, if you don’t like my decision and want to change it, you’ll have to take my position first to do so. Now, if you’ll excuse me.”With those words, Ivanka coolly left the meeting room.Candice, though initially taken aback by the sudden turn of events, quickly adjusted to her new role. Turning to Mandy, she said, “Ms. Cruella, please ensure your office is cleared in three days, as I will be moving in.”With that, she too left the room.After they left, the meeting room erupted into chaos, with arguments flying back and forth. However, the outcome was already sealed. Ferris was powerless to change it.Though he still had cards to play, he was not about to waste them on Mandy.Sure enough, by the afternoon, employees spotted Mandy packing her belongings and leaving in disgrace.Candice, though initially satisfied, could not help but feel uneasy. After thinking it over, she decided to speak with Ivanka. And so, at that moment, she was standing in front of the door to t
Love Mission: Pursuing My Stunning Ex-Wife Chapter 1827 You Took My Position
Ferris was panicking at the moment. He shot Mandy a disappointing and furious glare.It was one thing for her to embezzle funds, it was another for her to get caught.How foolish!Feeling the weight of Ferris’s gaze, Mandy instinctively lowered her head.That only made Ferris more enraged.She had caused all this trouble, and he had to clean up the mess.Ivanka ignored them and turned to the other shareholders. She sharply said, “Tell me, how can someone like her hold the position of project director in our company, yet Candice can’t even be promoted to team leader?”Mandy had been personally hired by Ferris, so Ivanka criticizing her in front of everyone was effectively a direct slap to his face.That naturally made Ferris extremely uncomfortable.His expression turned even darker.“In my opinion, it’s true Mandy shouldn’t have done that, but she’s been in this position for so long. While she doesn’t have achievements, she’s at least put in the effort. How about this, let’s
Love Mission: Pursuing My Stunning Ex-Wife Chapter 1826 Don’t Be Hypocritical Now
However, her smile did not reach her eyes.Mandy stood frozen. She was too scared to drink the water or take a seat. Just like that, she was ignored. The atmosphere was awkward. She could only cast a pleading glance toward Ferris for support.Ferris, who was standing near her, cleared his throat and said, “That’s right. Ms. Ivanka, Ms. Cruella is right. This isn’t in line with proper procedures.”Ivanka maintained her enigmatic smile. Her index finger tapped lightly on the table. It was impossible to guess what was going through her mind.She glanced around the room. “What do the rest of you think?”She sounded like she was seeking opinions, but the weight of her presence was intimidating. No one dared to answer.Just as Ferris was about to say something, Ivanka picked up Mandy’s report and tossed it onto the floor.It happened too fast. Everyone was stunned by her action. Even Ferris was caught off guard.Mandy’s face turned pale.“Rules are made by people. Besides, Cand
Love Mission: Pursuing My Stunning Ex-Wife Chapter 1825 Morning Meeting
“Please start.” Ivanka nodded. Mandy glanced at Ferris and then at Ivanka. She did not dare to speak.It was obvious that she did not want to offend either side.But she had received a lot of favors being under Ferris over the years, so naturally she did not dare to disobey him.Ferris felt like he was getting the upper hand again, and he was a lot more cheerful. His expression seemed to say, “Look, this is my staff. Look at how they listen to me and not you. You’re nothing much as the chairman. Who are you here, Ivanka?”The anger from before had completely disappeared. He said calmly, “You really don’t get the hint. If Ms. Lane lets you speak, you should just speak.”Although he sounded like he was scolding her, anyone could hear from Ferris’s tone that he was not complaining. He was gloating.Some shareholders did not want to be caught up in the mess and lowered their heads.Others wanted to see where things went.In a way, he was asserting dominance over Ivanka. Everyone wa
Love Mission: Pursuing My Stunning Ex-Wife Chapter 1824 Settling Scores
Ivanka suggested to Candice to go home and rest.But Candice still refused.She said, “The contract will be done soon. I’ll be able to rest properly and have peace of mind sooner when it’s finalized.”Ivanka relented. She only said that if she felt discomfort in any way, she must tell her immediately.Candice nodded her head and took note.Ivanka gripped the steering wheel tightly. She felt guilty.Candice was already in such a state, but she still insisted on working. Her reason there was not only to repay Ivanka but also to realize her own self-worth.But Ferris kept getting in the way of that report.It was really upsetting.Ivanka also secretly made it a point to get the report passed on that day.The car reached the company. Ivanka went upstairs with Candice together. Ivanka also personally helped Candice to her workstation.Despite Candice’s repeated refusals, Ivanka was very insistent.She wanted to demonstrate to everyone that she had Candice’s back. If anyone wante
