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.

    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

    “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

    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

    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

    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

    “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

    Ivanka was no longer angry, and she was not the kind of person who held a grudge. Therefore, she said coldly, “Now get out of my sight!”“What?”Mr. Howard, Mr. Gaudin, and the remaining man all gawked at each other.They thought that after they apologized, they would still have a chance to talk about their collaboration. After all, Michael had already shown up.They did not expect that Ivanka would react this way.She was practically kicking them out.As they hesitated, Michael said grimly with a dark look in his eyes, “Didn’t you hear what my wife said? Get lost!”“Alright, alright, we’ll leave now!”The three men quickly said as they left sheepishly. They dared not upset Michael further.Michael might have defended Ivanka, but she believed that she would have been fine on her own. She could refuse to work with those men and still get out of there unscathed.Besides, what Michael said earlier confirmed that they were back together.Michael had called her his wife on purpos

    But Ivanka stared at him calmly and said nothing.Even though Michael still remembered Evan’s advice, he had no idea how to proceed. If he talked about his condition, would it sound too fake to Ivanka?If he did not bring it up, then how did he tell her what he was here for?Just as he hesitated, Ivanka said slowly, “Anything else, Mr. Barkworth?”“Yes!”Her question undoubtedly gave Michael an excuse to keep talking. He then said, “When I woke up, I had difficulty breathing. Now I feel as if there’s something weighing down on my chest.”“Is that right?” Ivanka did not buy it.Michael nodded and looked at Ivanka calmly. “Yeah. If you don’t believe me, you can examine me.”He had lied to her before, so he might be lying to her again. Ivanka would not let him trick her the second time.Besides, Michael was not unconscious at this moment.Ivanka sneered. “When you were condemning those men, your voice was firm and steady. You don’t seem unwell at all, Mr. Barkworth. You should s

    Just as he was about to say something else, a clear voice suddenly spoke.“I told them to play it. Is there a problem?”The crowd looked for the voice and saw Candice in a white dress. She looked serene and cool. It was a different kind of beauty.But this was not a wedding. It was obviously a funeral.Everyone looked at the heroine who was supposed to appear today. Shock crossed their eyes. It looked like the bride found out about their despicable deed. Immediately after, the bride said in a mocking voice once again, “Leonardo, how does it feel to lose your reputation? You experienced it before me. Do you like the wedding gift I gave you?”Candice looked at him. Her brow was calm and void of emotion.Leonardo was already extremely cranky. In a way, he was at the end of his rope. He looked at her incredulously. “What do you mean by that?!” Candice sneered. “I didn’t mean anything by that. Just letting everyone present witness and see clearly for themselves what mangy dogs d

    At that moment, there was a crazy video rolling on the big screen. The video was unsightly. The man and woman on the bed were “wrestling” frantically with the woman’s coquettish voice calling out at the same time. Also, the facilities here were top notch and equipped with 3D surround sound. The guests had no idea what to do when they heard.Some of the sharp-eyed guests spotted the man and woman in the video in a single glance. “My goodness! Aren’t these two the groom, Leonardo, and the bride’s best friend Jennifer?!”The moment these words came out, it instantly set off an uproar!Jennifer was instantly dumbfounded when she saw the video! But the next moment she screamed in panic. “Turn it off! Turn it off! It’s not me at all!” It was just that, not only were her shouts futile, but she felt the contemptuous disdainful glances thrown at her from all sides!She could even feel like some of the men were undressing her with their eyes! She was screaming! “Turn it off! Turn

    When she put on makeup, her features looked even more exquisite. She looked sharper. Michael’s gaze paused for a moment. Why had he not realized it in the past? Ivanka glanced at him and spoke directly. “I’m good to go. Let’s go there now?” “Yes.” Michael quickly collected his thoughts and rushed to the wedding venue with her. There were a lot of guests. Those who came were all the city’s upper-class people and everyone was open and relaxed. They were able to navigate their way in a situation like this and take the opportunity to meet more work partners.The groom also weaved in and out of the crowd. He was beaming and full of life.Jennifer was with him. The two of them were welcoming the guests together. Those who did not know any better might even think that the two of them were the new couple. Everyone arrived one after another. It was just that… Only the bride and Jarek were missing.The crowd could not help but be a little confused. Right among the murmuring

    Of course, he was referring to Jarek, who was screaming on the ground. Ivanka and Michael’s eyes met across the distance. They exchanged a look with each other. In the end, they chose to stay out of it. What should have been done was done. No matter the outcome, it was Candice’s own choice. Michael took a step back and came to Ivanka’s side. “Thanks.” Candice stared at Ivanka and sincerely thanked her once again. She was not stupid, so naturally, she could see that her cousin greatly respected his wife’s opinion. On the other hand, Ivanka was highly self-sufficient.Not long after, the security guards came and took Jarek away. After Candice said goodbye to the two, she left in the opposite direction.Ivanka and Michael went back to their rooms together.On the way back, Ivanka’s brows remained furrowed, and Michael turned to look at her. “Still worried about her?”Ivanka’s eyes flashed, then she looked at Michael and said softly, “Do you think that she will be soft-h

    Leonardo had always been a perfect boyfriend. He was so perfect and seemed to have been specially made for Candice. Candice used to find it suspicious. But she dared not probe further into her own suspicions. Since things had turned out like so, she had no choice but to confront it. Candice’s heart was filled with a slew of anxiousness and complications. Despite this, she held back her emotions. Without further hesitation, she lifted the blanket and got down from the bed. She walked to the room next door. Ivanka gave Michael a look so that he would bring Jarek along. Michael was amused. He believed Ivanka must have treated him as her bodyguard. She was the first woman who had dared to give him an order. Despite this, Michael did as he was told. After all, Ivanka was not supposed to get involved in all this in the first place. It was all about the Barkworth family’s business. When Michael confronted Jarek, Michael’s temper instantly turned foul. He glared at Jarek.

    Bam! The room door was kicked open all of a sudden. Michael was the one who kicked the door open. The man in the formal suit had just taken off half of his pants when Michael entered the room. Michael exuded an air of standoffishness. The man looked dumbfounded. He did not know if he should put back on his pants or remove them. Ivanka was behind Michael. He did not let her enter the room. “On the count of three, put your pants on, or else—” Michael did not finish his sentence, but the man in the formal suit was so scared that his entire body trembled. The man knew that if he did not act as he was told, he would lose his d*ck. So the man quickly put his pants on comically. While Michael was entering the room, Ivanka followed him. She ignored the man in the formal suit and went to the bed where Candice was laying. They had made quite a commotion when they entered the room. Despite this, Candice laid motionlessly on the bed. Apparently, she had been drugged. It l

    Jennifer took the man to Candice in the middle of the night. Things did not seem good. Ivanka knew something bad was going to befall Candice. She was about to follow them when someone behind her abruptly stopped her. Ivanka’s eyes flew wide open. Her scream got stuck in her throat. The man’s large hand had covered her mouth. At the same time, a familiar smell entered her nostrils, and she gave up trying to let go of herself from the man’s grasp. “Why are you giving up so easily?” As expected, Ivanka heard a familiar voice. She turned around and saw Michael’s playful smile. “I know it’s you, so there’s no need to keep trying to free myself,” answered Ivanka truthfully. “How did you know it’s me?” Her answer piqued his interest. Ivanka was about to explain when a thought struck her mind. After that, she kept quiet. “It’s a secret.” Before Michael could continue the topic, Ivanka decided to skip and end it by asking, “You saw everything. What do you think about it?”

    The only problem was, the bridegroom never showed up even once. During the first rehearsal, Candice was the only one who finished the whole course. Ivanka was curious, but she did not give it a second thought. She assumed the bridegroom was absent because he was tied up with something else. That night, Ivanka finally saw the so-called bridegroom. But their encounter was not a happy one. At midnight Ivanka could not fall asleep, so she planned to go out to take a walk. The moment she stepped out of the door, she ran into a drunkard. The man was in a formal suit, but his tie was hung crookedly around his neck. He occasionally hiccoughed and looked sloppy. A woman helped him by the side. They were very close, and the way they interacted with each other was flirty. They talked to each other very intimately. Ivanka saw the duo enter the room next to her. She wondered why they would drink so much during somebody else’s wedding eve. Ivanka thought they were just the wedding gues

    Fondli was a third-world country. Although it was less developed, it was clean and not heavily polluted. The moment Ivanka got off the plane, she keenly sensed this. “The air is very fresh. The environment is conducive for Grandma to recuperate over here. Unfortunately, her condition wouldn’t allow her body to be exposed to wind.” Michael did not expect Ivanka to care so much about Rosie. He gave her a profound look. It was rare to see him not snort at her. He wondered if he would have stood a better chance if he had used Rosie to make Ivanka spend the night in the Barkworth family’s mansion last night.But Michael was worried that Ivanka would be mad at this suggestion. Hence, he did not bring it up. Nonetheless, Rosie had specially given an account of what he needed to do during the Fondli trip, and Michael was full of confidence. Outside the airport, Michael’s cousin arranged for them a car. The wedding ceremony was located inside the bride’s mansion on the outskirts.
