Blake’s word made it clear that this had to involve the Hicks family. Keeping Blake under control would quickly reveal the truth.After ordering his men to take Blake away, Michael returned to the party. However, when he arrived, there was no sign of Ivanka or Chiara.His face darkened as he called Ivanka.Meanwhile, Ivanka was in the restroom with Chiara, having asked her to come along. She wanted to test just how far Chiara’s patience would go.As Michael’s call came through, Ivanka was touching up her makeup in front of the mirror.“This is so annoying!” she muttered and pulled her phone out of her bag.“Ms. Levine, let’s make this easier. I’ll call you Melanie from now on, and you can call me Iv. We’re friends now. All the formal ‘Ms. Levine’ and ‘Ms. Lane’ feels too distant.”When Chiara nodded, Ivanka continued. “Melanie, could you take this call for me? Just tell him I’m busy and can’t talk right now.” She handed the phone over to Chiara.Chiara glanced at the ca

Ivanka knew better than to fall into Chiara’s trap, especially when fully aware of her true identity. Yet here was her phone, in Chiara’s hands. That was a situation that defied logic.“Have her call me back herself.” Michael’s voice was firm and brooked no argument.That cold response stung Chiara. His disregard was clear. Michael had no interest in her involvement. He had no trust in her to relay anything. In fact, had he already begun to suspect her motives just from this call?“She’s here,” Chiara handed the phone back to Ivanka.Ivanka could tell the call had affected Chiara. She took the phone and smoothly asked Michael, “What do you want?”In less than a minute, the phone was back in Ivanka’s hands.Michael’s voice was steely as he asked, “What’s going on?”Ivanka replied calmly, “Nature called. I left my purse with Melanie in my rush. I’ll probably stay until the party ends. You should go home first.”She knew Chiara was likely watching her closely for any reaction.
Love Mission: Pursuing My Stunning Ex-Wife Chapter 1657 Are You Jealous?
Ivanka immediately retorted, “You should tell that to Chiara. If she wants to, maybe you two can get back together.”With that, she turned and walked ahead.Michael’s expression darkened instantly. That darn woman!Without hesitation, he caught up with her and said in a low voice, “I didn’t mean that. You know full well that she…”“She what? Remember how she ‘died’? Do I really need to remind you again?” Ivanka cut him off sharply before he could finish his sentence.Michael fell silent.Chiara’s ‘death’ shocked the entire Bostone and caused Ivanka to be blamed by the public. How could he not know that?After their trip to Mirvania and their close contact, he understood that there was more to the story.No matter what, he knew deep down that Ivanka and Chiara would never reconcile. He would never ask that of Ivanka.Michael pursed his lips, collected his thoughts, and spoke to Ivanka. “I didn’t say anything about her, but you know exactly what her intentions are.”Ivanka nodd
Love Mission: Pursuing My Stunning Ex-Wife Chapter 1658 Do You Take Me For A Fool
“Wait a minute.” Ivanka thought.Was she angry because Michael had been fixated on Chiara the entire time?Regardless of how he felt about Chiara, what did it have to do with Ivanka? Why would she be mad?When she realized this, Ivanka was shocked by her line of thought.For a moment, she felt awkward and despised herself too.As Michael said, Ivanka had indeed gotten jealous.Little did she know, Michael saw her slight frown when she was deep in thought. He did not believe her earlier words.“It’s actually not that hard to acknowledge how you really feel deep down, just like I have done, Ivanka.”Ivanka was speechless.Michael made her sound like a coward.She refused to accept that accusation!Displeased, she said, “What do you mean by that, Michael? If I were a coward, I wouldn’t have lost my sense of self and wasted three years of my life on you!“You were the one who tossed me the divorce papers, weren’t you? Unlike you, I’m a human being with feelings. We were married
Love Mission: Pursuing My Stunning Ex-Wife Chapter 1659 Can’t Leave Him To Die
Even if Michael was pretending, it would not have been this convincing.Ivanka checked his pulse and found it unstable.It was the symptom of poisoning!Luckily, her bag contained the medicine kit and emergency pills she had brought to the hospital earlier that day.Otherwise, she would not be able to save him within such a short period of time, considering that they were in an unfamiliar place without medicines.After feeding him the pill, Ivanka called Evan on the phone.It was nighttime.Evan became alert instinctively. “What’s the matter, Ms. Lane?”“Michael is showing symptoms of poisoning. We’re at the Levine family’s place. Come get us right now.”Initially, Ivanka planned to ask someone to help her carry Michael to her car. However, even though he had taken the pill, he should not be moved around, given his condition.He had to stay still for an hour, or else his breathing and blood flow would be disrupted, which would affect his bodily functions and lead to a massive
Love Mission: Pursuing My Stunning Ex-Wife Chapter 1660 Reluctant
Ivanka could not send Michael back to the Barkworth family’s mansion or other places.But she could not bring him back home either, right?Ivanka thought of Evan’s place. “I can’t spend too much time around him, given the current nature of our relationship. Why don’t you bring him back to your place, Evan?“I still have some emergency pills with me. You still have the prescription I sent you a while ago, right? Given your efficiency, he will be fine if you prepare the medicines today, and then prepare them for consumption or medicinal baths tomorrow. “Huh?”Evan thought Ivanka would say she was taking Michael back to her house. Who would have thought Ivanka would rather go through so much trouble than just take him home?As it seemed, their relationship had once again become awkward and tense.However, earlier that day, they had attended the reunion banquet held by the Levine family together. In the eyes of the outsiders, they had practically remarried.Seeing Evan’s shock, Iv
Love Mission: Pursuing My Stunning Ex-Wife Chapter 1661 Not Here For Your Sexist Remark
However, the moment Ivanka said this, the businessmen immediately refuted her.One said, “How could it be the same, Mrs. Barkworth? Throughout history, men have been the ones taking the lead while women support their husbands. Although you’re the chairwoman of Lane’s Group, our collaboration won’t go smoothly if you’re the only person discussing the terms with us. If Mr. Barkworth is around, he can act as a bridge between us. Only then can all of us profit from this project.”“Mr. Gaudin is right. Besides, you’re probably unfamiliar with certain details, given that you’re new to this field. With Mr. Barkworth around, you’ll be more informed and assured.”“When will Mr. Barkworth recover from his hangover? If he is able to show up, then we don’t mind waiting till afternoon.”Even though all three of them said different things, they meant the same. They all wanted to wait till Michael showed up before discussing the project with Ivanka.Their speeches revealed their disdain for wome
Love Mission: Pursuing My Stunning Ex-Wife Chapter 1662 Apology Must Be Sincere
“Are you a mind reader, Mr. Howard? You sound as if you can read my thoughts.”Everyone was startled and immediately looked toward the source of the voice.They saw Michael walking over in a black suit. He was tall and sturdy, and he had a domineering and menacing air about him.At that moment, he was shrouded in kingly grace as he towered over three businessmen.The second they saw him, they immediately quailed in fear.Mr. Howard explained in a panic, “Mr. Barkworth, I didn’t mean that. I…”The sharp look in Michael’s eyes terrified him, and he could barely utter a complete sentence.Ivanka did not want to fan the flames when Michael came.Even if he did not show up, these businessmen would not intimidate her. They did not sense anything wrong with Michael, but she could hear the tremble in his voice. He was still ill!She wondered what was with this man. He had suffered from symptoms of poisoning the night before. But instead of getting enough rest, he came all the way he

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
Love Mission: Pursuing My Stunning Ex-Wife Chapter 1979 Dinner With Friends
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
Love Mission: Pursuing My Stunning Ex-Wife Chapter 1978 Officially Met
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.
Love Mission: Pursuing My Stunning Ex-Wife Chapter 1976 Teach Her a Lesson
“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. Undoubte
Love Mission: Pursuing My Stunning Ex-Wife Chapter 1975 Suspension
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
Love Mission: Pursuing My Stunning Ex-Wife Chapter 1974 Jimothy Populus
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
Love Mission: Pursuing My Stunning Ex-Wife Chapter 1973 Caused Trouble
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. You’re offended? You’re not even a real professional. What? You ca
Love Mission: Pursuing My Stunning Ex-Wife Chapter 1972 Special Treatment
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
