Chapter 1767 My Wife

Author: Deer
Ivanka’s intention was clear. She wanted him to deal with the young women without getting her involved.

But Michael would not let her get away with it.

He smiled at her. It sent a chill down her spine. She had a bad feeling about what was going to happen next.

Ivanka’s fear came true when Michael said to her gently and pleadingly, “Let’s go, my dear wife. Aren’t we going to shop for my underwear?”

Stunned, the two young women gawked at each other. For a moment, they were too shocked to excuse themselves and leave.

Awkwardness spread among them.

He had called her his wife and even mentioned underwear. Anyone would get the wrong idea about their relationship.

But the only people feeling awkward were the young women who asked for Michael’s number. Ivanka’s eyes widened with disbelief. She gave an angry bark of laughter.

Meanwhile, there was a sly, smug smirk on Michael’s face.

“What the heck? She’s his wife but she said nothing when we approached him. She just wants to embarrass

    Michael found the worked-up side of Ivanka was adorable.Every time he saw her like that, he would wonder why he had never noticed this side of her before.But it was not too late. He had a chance to make it up to her.They shopped around the food aisles and the fruit section. Ivanka did the picking. Michael did not have anything that he particularly wanted to eat. Once in a while, he would take some items, but they were all Ivanka’s favorite food. No one could say for sure that it was on purpose or just a coincidence.After buying the groceries, Ivanka took Michael to the underwear store.Perhaps it was because of their exchange with the two young women earlier on, Ivanka stopped feeling awkward. She was rather at ease.The strange, romantic tension between them gradually faded.The sales assistant asked who Ivanka was shopping for. She pointed to Michael and let him tell the sales assistant what size he wore.Noticing that Ivanka was not in a good mood, Michael stopped stalli

    They worked in the kitchen for a while and produced a table full of scrumptious dishes.Ivanka was a great cook. It surprised Michael a little.After all, when they were married, he had only seen her make a bunch of dishes and place them on the table. He never touched them.Seeing Michael’s expression, Ivanka gave a faint, bitter smile. “The cook didn’t always come over. I couldn’t starve myself to death when I was home alone, right?”Michael kept his head down and said nothing. He knew Ivanka was implying that he rarely came home when they were married.But he would not let it happen again.He would try his best to make it up to her.When they were eating, Ivanka switched to a news channel. She deliberately did it to avoid further interaction with Michael.Oddly enough, she could stand dining with Michael at the same table.But she could not bring herself to properly converse with him during mealtime or bedtime.It was too private of a pastime. She did not want Michael to ge

    Michael nodded. “I need some air. It’s suffocating in here.”“Alright.”Ivanka decided not to argue further.As they stepped outside, a cool breeze hit them. Ivanka tossed him a light blanket. “It’s a bit chilly. Take this if you’re going out.”Michael had been upset that she let Jonah stay, but her thoughtful gesture comforted him.Perhaps listening to Ivan and Xander was not so bad after all.“Sure,” Michael said with a nod.Ivanka had hoped that giving him the blanket would make him give up on the walk. But no, he still wanted to go.She gave up and just let him be.After walking a bit, she grew worried. “I think you’re overthinking it. I’ll bring you to another check-up tomorrow.”She suspected that Xander had fabricated the report. With Michael’s demands added to it, everything about the situation felt off.“If you’re that worried, we can go get it now. No need to wait.” Michael went along with her suggestion.He stopped and looked at her intensely.Ivanka met his gaz

    Michael: Thanks for letting me stay and for going out for a walk with me today when I insisted. I couldn’t bring myself to say this in person, but I didn’t want to leave with regrets. My days with you have been amazing.Ivanka felt a sharp pang after reading those words.Things would not have ended like this if he had said this sooner.She took a deep breath and tried to calm herself. She did not reply and instead opened the next message.Jonah: Iv, can you come by tomorrow? My legs are hurting badly. I’m worried it’s getting worse.She knew Jonah would not lie about something like this just to get her to come over, especially with how much Margaret hated her.She could not help but worry.Ivanka: I’ll come first thing in the morning.Right after she sent the text, Jonah called.He asked gently over the phone, “Why aren’t you asleep yet? Did Michael bother you?”Jonah stayed at her place for two reasons. The first was to treat his leg, and the second was to stop Margaret and

    Michael let out a long sigh.He looked at Ivanka. His eyes were misty and carried a hint of helplessness.Ivanka, however, was not moved by his expression. She replied indifferently, “Mr. Barkworth, don’t you have faith in yourself? Even if something happens, you’ll be fine. You can call Evan or Xander. You’ve been taking your medication, and I’ve been helping with your treatment—”Before she could finish, he interrupted her. “I’m afraid of dying!”Ivanka noticed that his voice was calm, but his gaze revealed a hint of panic.She hesitated, unsure how to respond to his vulnerability. After a moment, she pursed her lips and said, “If you’re afraid of dying, why did you protect me? Michael, don’t you see how you contradict what you’re saying before this?”Michael just wanted Ivanka to stay. He hoped she would pity him.He had said those words without thinking, which made Ivanka question him. But he did not panic. He explained, “Spending time with you, whether it’s eating, walkin

    Ivanka was at a loss as she looked at Michael’s pale face. Michael was obviously doing this on purpose, at least to some extent.But she could not let him keep deluding himself.“Jonah said his leg hurts. It might be getting worse. I need to check on him.” She did not plan to argue and kept her tone steady.Michael frowned when she mentioned Jonah. “What? Doesn’t the Sadler family have a doctor? Or have they fallen so low they can’t afford one?”Ivanka froze. His harsh words took her aback. But she was already used to it. It was a good thing Jonah was not here. Otherwise, they would start fighting again.She pursed her lips and said, “Can you watch how you speak? Your words are harsh. You know the accident happened. He didn’t guilt-trip me, but I can’t ignore the fact that it happened because of me.”Michael’s expression changed from annoyance to worry. “His mom doesn’t even like you. Are you really going just to get scolded?”Margaret’s face came to mind.She understood

    Ivanka smiled faintly in return.Jonah’s words felt sincere.She knew she had not come to Jonah’s room just for a visit.She quickly looked away and nodded at Jonah. “Come here, let me see your leg.”Jonah suggested, “Let’s go to the balcony. The weather’s nice today.”“Alright.” Ivanka agreed.She placed her hands on the wheelchair handles and pushed him toward the balcony.Jonah spoke softly, “Are you sure you don’t fancy anything here?”Ivanka shook her head. “Everyone has a childlike side. But at my age, I’m focused on my career. I don’t even have time to organize my place. If I took your things, they’d just end up being neglected.”Jonah disagreed. “That wouldn’t be neglect. You could use them as decorations. They’d look great.”Ivanka gestured toward him. “First, roll up your pant cuffs. I’ll check those later.”“Okay.”Jonah quickly rolled up his pant cuffs as she instructed.Ivanka reached out and placed her hand on his leg.Jonah tensed when he felt her cool, sof

    She looked aggrieved and said, “Jon, I only barged in because I care about you. Don’t you see? This wretch is the one who caused all of this. If it weren’t for her, you wouldn’t have ended up like this!”Laura pointed at Ivanka as she spoke.Ivanka was not about to let Laura act so recklessly. She slapped Laura’s hand away and smirked. “Who are you calling a wretch?!”“You! I’m calling you a wretch!” Laura shouted. Her face was red with anger.Ivanka laughed. “Well, Ms. Laura, don’t you think you’re describing yourself?”Laura froze. She realized Ivanka had turned her words against her. Her face flushed with embarrassment.She lost it. Ivanka’s smugness around Jonah pushed her over the edge. In a burst of rage, she lunged at her.Ivanka easily stepped aside. Laura missed.Laura tried again, but this time, Ivanka grabbed her wrist.Ivanka twisted her wrist with a little force. A crack followed.Laura’s eyes widened in panic. “Ivanka, what did you do to me?”Ivanka sneered. “C

    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

    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

    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.

    “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
