Chapter 1631 Play The Blame Game

Author: Deer
If Michael truly believed this was some random accident, he would not have asked Evan to investigate.

“Whether it was some random accident or not, that’s no reason for you to come here and criticize Ivanka. Do you think she arranged for someone to crash into the car she was in?”

Michael’s words left Margaret at a loss. She wanted to argue, but she did not know where to begin.

It was obvious that Ivanka was definitely not behind this incident. After all, no one could predict what might happen in a car crash. Ivanka was in the car herself, so there was no way she would take such a risk. Plus, she had no reason or motive to do it.

Still, that did not mean she had nothing to do with it.

Margaret cleared her throat. She looked at the two of them before fixing her gaze on Ivanka.

With a mocking smile, she said, “I never said she did it, Mr. Barkworth. Why are you so defensive? If I remember correctly, the two of you are divorced. People might get the wrong idea if you protect her like

    “Ms. Fishbourne, what do you mean by that? Why not just say it directly? I like things straightforward. I don’t understand and don’t want to understand your roundabout ways. Plus, we won’t know who the driver was targeting until the police interrogate them. All I know is that while I was doing everything I could to save Jonah’s leg during surgery, you were out here mocking me and making a scene.”Laura could mock her, misunderstand her, or even try to boss her around. But Ivanka would not tolerate being called out by name to be insulted.Moreover, Michael was dragged into this. It was not his problem to begin with. What right did they have to involve him?Margaret and Laura fell silent after hearing Ivanka’s words. They were stunned.They could not retort. It was the plain truth.Laura did not expect Ivanka to push back like that.The atmosphere in the room shifted dramatically.Margaret never thought Ivanka, who usually went along with things, would speak up like this.It felt

    Michael did not stop following Ivanka. Instead, he calmly asked, “Why would that be a problem? Didn’t you just speak up for me earlier?”Just because she helped him out did not mean she could order him around.She shook her head. “Keep your distance. Jonah’s condition is serious. I don’t need you messing things up.”If this had happened earlier, Michael would have felt upset, thinking she was too worried about Jonah. But after what just happened, he understood where she was coming from and did not mind.He even assured her, “Relax. I’ll stay close by. If you need me, just let me know. If not, I’ll just stand back.”Since he was so persistent, Ivanka said nothing more.However, before Michael could enter the ward, Margaret, who had followed them, called out, “Ivanka is going in to treat my son. Mr. Barkworth, what exactly are you going in for?”Michael could compromise with Ivanka, but he was always the proud and aloof Mr. Barkworth in front of others.He glanced at her with a c

    Ivanka felt guilty. “You can’t say that. If it weren’t for me, you wouldn’t have been hurt this badly. Sure, your legs were saved, but they will take a long time to heal.“Jonah, do you trust me?”He had the right to know about his injuries. His legs were saved, but she was unsure if there would be any long-term issues.No matter what, she was determined not to let the worst happen to Jonah, even if it meant using everything she knew.Jonah froze when he heard her words. He was not a fool. He knew what she meant.Even though he had prepared himself for the worst, the idea of being crippled was worse than death. He would rather it be over quickly.He smiled bitterly and said resolutely, “Iv, of course I trust you. But if it gets really bad, please... just end it for me.”Hearing that, Ivanka felt a pang in her chest.The fact that Jonah woke up the day after such a serious accident and was already talking clearly showed he was in better shape than most.However, she could not f

    Michael felt a surge of anger. If Ivanka felt burdened by Jonah risking his life to save her, what about the time he took two bullets for her in Kingzillion Casino in Mirvania?That was a life-threatening situation as well. Did it really matter that Jonah almost became crippled? Did Margaret’s accusations mean Ivanka had to show him more favoritism?The more Michael thought about it, the more frustrated he became.Especially when he noticed Jonah looking at her with concern and affection. It made Michael want to storm in and kick Jonah right then and there!Meanwhile, Jonah felt heartbroken for Ivanka. He empathized with her sorrow but also felt attracted to her. He tried to suppress his feelings, but her guilt and sadness made it hard.“Iv, it really doesn’t matter. I chose to do this. But if you feel sorry for me, would you do something for me if I asked?”He pursed his lips while his other hand pressed against his palm.He gulped and felt nervous at that moment.Ivanka remai

    Ivanka frowned. “Why are you following me?”Michael smiled and said, “Aren’t we going to the Levine family reunion party? We should be trying on outfits together by now.”Ivanka looked at him, confused. Just a moment ago, he had been intensely questioning her. Suddenly, he was casually talking about trying on clothes together.“Michael, did the bullet hit your brain or something?”He was acting strange!Michael noticed the look on her face and seemed to understand what she was thinking.He smiled and responded, “No, it didn’t.”“Then why are you—?”Before she could finish, Michael cut her off. “The most important thing is that Jonah’s situation didn’t affect you.”Ivanka understood then and made her stance clear. “I won’t let anyone guilt-trip me into anything. I’m not going to be with you either. You and Jonah saved my life, and I’m grateful for that. So, I’ll help both of you however I can.”But she would not engage with them in any way beyond helping them as a friend.Mic

    Laura was shocked to see Jonah behave like that. Feeling wronged, she looked down. “I saw you meet with an accident from the live broadcast, so I immediately came to look after you. Jonah, don’t stare at me like this. I’m scared. I don’t mean anything else.” Upon hearing that, Jonah frowned deeper. His expression turned absolutely dark. He wondered if Laura had claimed herself as his fiancee in front of Ivanka. If that was the case, it meant that Margaret already recognized Laura as her daughter-in-law. With those thoughts in his mind, Jonah could no longer contain himself and yelled at Laura, “Get out now! I don’t want to see you ever again!” Jonah pointed at the door angrily. This was Margaret and Laura’s first time seeing him lose his composure. Although Margaret disliked Laura, she was even angrier that Jonah cared so much for Ivanka. Before she said anything, Laura sobbed. “Jonah, why are you yelling at me? You hated to see me, but I love you with all my heart. Iva

    Jonah remained silent. He understood what Margaret had told him. But he could not bear to give up on Ivanka and kept a distance from her. What was wrong with dating a divorced woman? After all, he loved Ivanka, not her past. Besides, time would tell what sort of person she was. Even though Ivanka still had some feelings for Michael, they were divorced. As long as Jonah worked harder, he believed he still stood a chance of winning her heart. ... Meanwhile, Ivanka and Michael had already arrived at their destination. At the sight of the wide variety of haute couture, Ivanka was too lazy to pick them. “Give me something simple. I don’t want a superfluous gown. My makeup can be as simple as it can be.” Before the retailer said anything, Ivanka heard a female voice. “Show me the gowns on this side. I want designer gowns.” Upon hearing her calm tone with a tinge of aloofness, Ivanka found the female voice to be very familiar. The moment she turned around, she saw Tany

    While saying this, Michael pulled Ivanka backward. Ivanka did not behave indifferently toward Michael in front of Tanya and Blake. Upon hearing Michael’s words, Tanya’s heart skipped a beat. She stared at Michael incredulously. She had no choice but to bring Edward’s name up. “Mr. Barkworth, you’ve locked me up once. We’re in Bostone now. Even if you refuse to show me some respect, you can at least show my father some respect. He’s been admitted to the hospital. Are you going to quit doing this only if he dies right in your face?” Tanya stared at Michael with indignation. She used to fall head over heels in love with him. But since the incident, she stood no chance. Nonetheless, Michael was undaunted. He scorned, “What does your family’s life and death have anything to do with me? It’s all because you asked for it.” Right after he blurted out the words, Tanya fell speechless. Meanwhile, Blake narrowed his eyes. He slowly walked forward and stopped in front of Tanya.

    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.

    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
