Chapter 1440 However, They Were Already Divorced!

Author: Deer
With no other option, Ivanka finally told him the truth. “There wasn’t much to the deal. He just asked for a three-day trip. He probably wants me to go with him to the Middle East for something.”

When Ivanka thought he might let go, Michael’s grip remained firm as he said, “You’re not going!”

Ivanka bristled at his tone. “And why not?”

She had only made the deal with Mr. George to secure Michael’s antidote. It was a fair trade. Besides, she was never one to go back on her word.

If she did not follow through, what kind of person would that make her?

However, something in Michael’s intensity made her hesitate. Could there be something else on his mind?

For Michael, falling into this trap was a huge blow to his pride. He had never been a weak man, and this whole situation…

Ivanka studied him.

Michael’s expression darkened. His face was clouded with displeasure. “That man is cunning and dangerous. If all he wants is the Ganoderma nebula, give it to him. There’s no need to risk your

    If making Rosie happy was really his goal, why had he been so quick to throw the divorce papers on the table when Rosie had objected in the first place?Michael did not respond, but Ivanka’s words hit him like a series of tiny needles, each one pricking his heart. It left him unsettled.Rosie liked Ivanka. That much was clear. During their recent interactions, he had seen it for himself.Ivanka was not the heartless, ruthless woman she was made out to be.Maybe there had been more to the story with Chiara. And maybe their marriage…Seeing Michael’s silence, Ivanka could not help but laugh, though there was an undertone of irony.“Michael, you’re not seriously thinking about getting back together, are you?”Michael’s drifted mind was pulled back by her words. He noticed the look on her face. It was one of cold indifference.To her, the idea of reconciliation was nothing but a joke.She really thought so.They had been married for three years. All that time, she had not been ab

    Ivanka punched him in the chest.“We’re exes. You said it yourself. It means we’re total strangers now. Enough with your nonsensical argument. If you dare touch me, I’ll destroy you!”Michael did not let go even after she delivered the threat. But before he said anything, they heard people arguing outside the door.“This is not your turf. You can’t do whatever you please!”“Get out of my way!”There was a thump. Something heavy had hit the floor. Then, someone broke open the door from outside.Mr. George barged in with his men like a whirlwind.Ivanka seized the opportunity to shove Michael aside.Michael turned his cold, sharp gaze on Mr. George.But Mr. George was not intimidated by him at all. “Judging from the look in your eyes, you seem to be recovering. If a man has to rely on a woman to relieve his condition, then what good is that man?”Mr. George had seen the compromising position Michael and Ivanka were in.He found it rather interesting.Enraged by his words, Mic

    Michael’s lips moved slightly as he spoke. With that, a group of men in black stormed in and surrounded Mr. George.Mr. George’s men were disarmed as well.Meanwhile, Michael grabbed his jaw and shoved a bunch of pills into his mouth.Mr. George’s eyes were wide with panic. He put his finger in his throat and tried to spit out the pills, but Michael gripped his cheeks tightly.“Michael Barkworth! You have a death wish! You might have defeated and humiliated me this time, but do you really think I’ll let you get away with this?”Mr. George clenched his teeth. There was a furious and chilling look in his blue eyes.If looks could kill, Michael would have been dead multiple times at the receiving end of his glare.But Michael was unmoved. He scoffed. “Before you try to turn the situation around and retaliate, you should worry about surviving the lethal poisons I just fed you!”His subordinates seized Mr. George and threw him into the bathroom.The door was shut and locked from ou

    In the past, Michael never bothered to investigate anything or took her side and trusted her. So what was the point of finding out what happened back then?Chiara was already dead.Even if Michael could prove that Ivanka was innocent, the outsiders would think that she was smearing her dead cousin.But Michael did not see it as such. He pressed his lips together, then said, “Why is it unnecessary to clear your name? Ivanka, I—”He was at a loss for words when he saw her icy expression.It was the first time this happened to him in decades. He was rather surprised.At the next moment, his expression turned grim. He said nothing else.Seeing him like that, Ivanka was amused. She said coldly, “Back then, you decided that I was guilty. I’ll ask you this: So what if you investigate and prove that I am innocent? Are you going to compensate me? Do you think I need your money or a loveless marriage?”A loveless marriage was worse than death!She used to be foolish enough to imagine th

    In the video, Tanya walked into a private room while disguising herself as Ivanka and then ran out naked.Tanya was flabbergasted.Chiara had told her a while ago that the video was destroyed. Why did she still have it?In contrast to Tanya’s panic, the mockery in Ivanka’s smile was striking. “Are you sure you want to set your dogs on me, Tanya?”“Back down!”Despite her reluctance, Tanya had to make a compromise.Meanwhile, Michael strode in with an icy expression.He walked over to Ivanka without sparing Tanya a glance. Tanya gritted her teeth. He only had eyes for Ivanka!But Tanya could not fuss over such trifles at this point.She wanted so badly to snatch the phone from Ivanka. She did not want to lose her pride and dignity in front of Michael.But she could not and dared not do that!Naturally, Ivanka could tell what Tanya was thinking. With a sneer, she put the phone into her pocket. There was no satisfaction on her face, but her confidence was apparent.“You disgui

    Even if Tanya’s reputation was at risk, she did not plan to reveal her secret backer.Ivanka raised her brows slightly.Who was really behind Tanya, and what sort of person were they? It was surprising to see Tanya being so insistent!Suddenly, a man walked into the room.All eyes fell on them.Ivanka frowned slightly. She vaguely remembered who he was. It was the man who attended the party with Tanya.The man put himself between Ivanka and Tanya to protect the latter. Wearing a cold expression, he and Michael stared at each other. “Tanya is my woman,” the man said. “I won’t let you bully her like that.”Tanya was startled, but she did not push Blake away.At that moment, she was utterly helpless.If Blake could help her, she would not hesitate to play along and use him.Ivanka studied Blake with scrutiny and vigilance.This man had only appeared around Tanya twice. Her secret backer would not appear in public so openly.But Blake promised to help Tanya. It showed that he w

    Ivanka was not a mild-tempered person.Alexander chuckled and said, “It’s not like I enjoy being rejected. It depends on who is rejecting me. I’ll only enjoy it if you’re the one doing it. By the way, are you coming over? I have the answer you want!”As he spoke, he drawled on purpose.Ivanka’s heart sank.Alexander said he had the answer to her question. He had also stated clearly that the person who wanted her dead was a woman.Therefore, it could be the masked woman next to him!With that in mind, Ivanka was intrigued.Her lips curled into a smile. “Since you have invited me so cordially, I should at least show up out of politeness.”After a few encounters with Ivanka, Alexander knew that she was smart. She must have connected the dots somehow, or else her attitude would not change so easily.But considering that he was the one showing his hand first, he would be intimidated if she kept digging.In fact, rather than working with Eleanor, he wanted to see Ivanka at her best

    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

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

    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
