“I’ll be off now.”That was all Anna said. She had thousands of things to tell the man, but she could not say them out loud.Hanson smiled and nodded. “Let me send you to your door.”“No need. We’re already at the yard. Why do you have to send me? It’s really late. You should go back early and rest.”Hanson did not insist either and just nodded. He only asked his driver to drive away after he made sure that Anna had entered her home.Meanwhile, Anna felt slightly heartbroken as she saw the car’s headlights slowly fade away through her window.He was such a warm person. How great would it be if he was willing to give her a chance? She was willing to be with him forever.Not only did Ivanka not like him, but she had also suffered emotional turmoil. She did not want to be in a relationship anymore. Would Hanson want to guard her his entire life?Anna’s tears seemed to flow even more.When Anna’s mother, Leah, came downstairs, she saw her daughter standing at the entrance of the l
Love Mission: Pursuing My Stunning Ex-Wife Chapter 180 As If He Was at Ease
After she washed up, she saw the dark circles around her eyes. She immediately put on some foundation so that she did not look too miserable.Besides, she was going to visit St. John Cathedral. She did not want to put on heavy makeup.She drove all the way to the Barkworth family’s mansion. After she entered the living room, she saw that Rosie was dressed up and sitting on the couch. She appeared to be in good spirits as Ivanka smiled faintly. “Grandma, we can leave now.” Rosie smiled and nodded. “Wait a little longer, girl.”Ivanka was a little puzzled. “Grandma, what’s the matter?”“We’re waiting for someone.” Rosie pretended to be mysterious, and it confused Ivanka.However, before she could think about it in depth, she heard the sounds of a car coming from outside. She looked over automatically as Rosie spoke with excitement, “Let’s go now!”She got up, held Ivanka’s hand, and walked outside.When they got out, they saw Michael sitting in the driver’s seat. He did not inte

Chiara dressed herself meticulously before she went out.Last night, she had been thinking about how she would greet Rosie today. She even drafted out her speech on her way in the car because she was afraid that she would mess it up later.However, she did not see Rosie when she arrived at the Barkworth family’s mansion. She looked at Harvey in puzzlement.“Harvey, is Grandma not around?”Harvey nodded. “Yes.”Chiara was surprised. “It’s so early. Where did Grandma go?”“Young Master Michael came to pick Mdm. Barkworth early this morning. They went to St. John Cathedral with Ms. Ivanka Lane,” Harvey answered honestly.“St. John Cathedral?” Chiara appeared completely stunned. Why were the three of them visiting that place all of a sudden?Also, why did Michael pick Rosie up? Why did that b*tch, Ivanka, go along?Harvey nodded as usual, but he did not explain.Chiara took a deep breath and tried to control her emotions. She looked at Harvey with a smile and said, “So… Mr. Harve

They just followed the priest.This cathedral was pretty much the same as other cathedrals. However, the layout was slightly different when they reached the backyard.Pastor Paul did not stay in the cathedral. It looked more like an independent space.They only arrived at his place after they walked on a stone path for half an hour.Ivanka supported Rosie, as she was afraid that Rosie would get tired and lose her footing.However, Rosie was in very good spirits today, and she seemed to be in great shape. She was even more relaxed than her younger peers as she walked on the path.When they reached a side room, the priest said to them, “May God bless you. Please come in.”They nodded politely before they walked in together.Pastor Paul was sitting in a chair at this time. When he saw them coming forward, he immediately got up and bowed. “May God bless you.”Rosie immediately made the sign of cross and bowed before Pastor Paul.Ivanka did the same gesture. Michael frowned slight
Love Mission: Pursuing My Stunning Ex-Wife Chapter 183 She Could Not Help It
Rosie subconsciously looked at Pastor Paul, and her eyes were filled with surprise. “You…” “If you force it, things will only end badly. I hope you understand this,” Pastor Paul spoke naturally and instantly highlighted his main point.Rosie was stunned. “I…” She had always looked for ways to get the two of them to meet so that they could reconcile. Had this been… a bad approach?Rosie could not help but secretly sigh. Yes, if it were a good method, would she have failed to improve their relationship in the past three years? Instead, their relationship had gotten worse.At the moment, she seemed to realize her mistake and the danger of her actions. However, would they have no chance at all if she actually allowed them to do whatever they wanted?Rosie did not know what to do for a while.Pastor Paul obviously knew her struggle. “May God bless you. You’ll understand when you let go. Everything is destined,” he added.Ivanka and Michael were still waiting outside. Michael’s exp
Love Mission: Pursuing My Stunning Ex-Wife Chapter 184 Make Ivanka Fall into Disrepute
Rosie hesitated to speak, but Ivanka smiled and said, “So, Grandma, humans get tired and change. The two of us couldn’t be together, but we’re more harmonious now than we were before. What do you think, Grandma?”Previously, Ivanka had felt so suppressed that she could barely breathe. Her mother-in-law looked down on her and excluded her from everything, while her husband hated her. He desperately wanted to kill her, she had to deal with a lot of stress every day.Now, she did not have to suffer through all that anymore. She just felt very relaxed. She did not have to be wary of other people’s attitudes before doing anything. She just needed to protect the ones she cared about.In addition, her grandmother did not have to worry about her anymore.Rosie could not help but sigh. “Sigh… I give up. I won’t bother the two of you again.”Ivanka’s tension instantly eased at this moment.Even her mood gradually got better. As long as their grandmother did not force them to be together, s
Love Mission: Pursuing My Stunning Ex-Wife Chapter 185 Won’t He Be Alone?
To get the Barkworth family to acknowledge Chiara, Mindy had to suppress her hatred and willingly acknowledge Ivanka as a member of the family.However, her recognition was still very subtle—both of them were members of the Barkworth family.Rosie saw Ivanka as her granddaughter, but… she was not as accepting of Chiara. On the other hand, Mindy did not acknowledge Ivanka as her daughter. She was obviously telling Rosie that Chiara would be Michael’s wife.However, Rosie did not refute her this time. “We’ll talk about it after Ms. Lane marries into our family,” she said indifferently.Mindy looked at Rosie in surprise. Rosie had no objections?If this had happened in the past, Rosie would have probably argued that Ivanka was her only granddaughter-in-law. Did she just change her mind?Did Chiara stand a chance now?Even Chiara looked at Rosie in surprise. Rosie had apparently changed her mind after her latest visit to the cathedral.Mindy and Chiara looked at Ivanka at the same
Love Mission: Pursuing My Stunning Ex-Wife Chapter 186 He’ll Never Forget
Ivanka chuckled. “I’ll pick you up when Grandpa goes on his next business trip.” “That’s so thoughtful of you.” Rosie was happy, and she smiled genuinely. Ivanka chatted with her during their meal, and the atmosphere was harmonious. Meanwhile, Chiara and Mindy sat opposite them as if they were outsiders. Chiara tried to provide an explanation for yesterday’s incident, but Rosie merely focused on Ivanka. She did not even give Chiara a glance. Chiara then remembered her parents’ advice. They had reminded her to not bring up the issue and act magnanimously instead. Chiara hesitated for a while, but eventually, she managed to hold back the urge to defend herself. She found the food to be tasteless. Ivanka, on the other hand, had a full meal as she chatted happily with Rosie. However, she still had other things to do. “Grandma, I have to get back to my work. I’ll visit you again when I’m free,” she said with a smile. Rosie smiled back and nodded. “Go ahead. If you’re busy, you d

Egbert stormed off in fury, but Sandy’s rage had not cooled in the slightest. She even lashed out at Ivan. “You shouldn’t have stopped me just now! If I’d given him a good scolding, or even a beating, maybe it would’ve finally knocked some sense into him. Otherwise, he’ll keep coming back. He’s always trying to use me for his own purposes!”She was so angry she was practically grinding her teeth. Ivan pressed his lips together and let out a long sigh. “With the way you looked like you were ready to kill someone, what did you expect me to do? Just stand there and watch you commit murder?”He was really worried when he saw how Sandy was losing control. “What’s the point of that old b*stard still being alive anyway?” Sandy said coldly. If she could really get rid of that old man, she would do it so she could avenge her mother and let go of that grudge she had been holding on.Ivan shook his head and said in a low voice, “Then think about it, how hard did you work to get to where yo
Love Mission: Pursuing My Stunning Ex-Wife Chapter 2249 Not How A Proper Young Lady Should Behave
Sandy exploded. “Eighty million? Why don’t you go rob a bank? Or better yet, see if that wrinkled old face of yours is worth anything as collateral!”Sandy was fuming.Egbert had not expected Sandy to be so vulgar. He turned back, enraged.His black eyes shot daggers like he could rip her apart on the spot. Sandy did not flinch. Instead, she lifted her chin and gave him a cold, mocking smile. “What? Are you so mad that you’re thinking about hitting me? Do you want me to remind you of the law? We have no legal ties anymore. If you so much as touch me, that’s assault. And let’s not forget, you barged into my workplace to cause a scene.”“Sandy, I don’t know what kind of twisted morals your birth mother and adoptive mother taught you, but just look at yourself now! Do you even resemble a proper human being?”Egbert was extremely disappointed in Sandy. The one thing Sandy hated most was when people brought up her birth mother and adoptive mother. Those two women were the most import
Love Mission: Pursuing My Stunning Ex-Wife Chapter 2248 Bring Me Eighty Million
Egbert snapped at Sandy coldly. His gaze was pressing.However, that had no effect on Sandy. Her lips even curled into a mocking smile as she said, “I’m not one of your McNeil pets. That look, your words, they cannot intimidate me at all.”At the mention of “pets,” Egbert was so furious that he slammed his cane against the floor with a loud crack. “Listen to yourself! Is that any way for a lawyer to speak? Do you even understand the meaning of respect, decency, and manners? Is that how your mother raised you?”Sandy had been mean and harsh on purpose to kill whatever sliver of hope he held onto.Just as she wished, he was angered.Watching him lose his composure, Sandy even felt a flicker of satisfaction rise within her. Her mother and herself were thrown out and lived a tough life while her father stood by uselessly. Who else was to blame, if not this old man standing before her?“My mother raised me to be a decent person. She taught me never to push away what’s rightfully mine,
Love Mission: Pursuing My Stunning Ex-Wife Chapter 2247 You Sure Have A Lot Of Attitude
Thomas stated his purpose.Sandy’s reaction, however, was full of repulsion. She frowned. Even her tone was curt. “Uncle, I made it very clear about seeing him the last time we spoke. He never once considered me part of the McNeil family. If it weren’t for my mother taking me in, I wouldn’t be where I am today. Now that I’ve grown up and suddenly seem useful, he wants to claim me back? I was abandoned by the McNeil family the moment I was born. I’m not stupid enough to become a pawn for your family!”Sandy was furious.She had always treated Thomas with a certain courtesy, but at the moment, that line had clearly been crossed.Thomas, though only the messenger, could feel the weight of her resentment. “It may not be as bad as you think. If you won’t go, Dad will come find you himself.”That was the truth. Yet Sandy did not spare the old man a shred of respect. She scoffed. “He might be your dad, your head of the family, but he’s nothing to me. From the moment I was abandoned, th

Sandy was really surprised to see Ivanka. “When did you get back?”“Today,” Ivanka answered honestly.“You have quite a packed schedule for just one day.” Sandy teased her.When they had planned to take down Coco last time, Ivanka was not around. Then Michael returned. From what Sandy could tell, they were always either together or closely following each other.Ivanka did not respond to her teasing. “I’ll only be here for a day or two, then I would have to leave again.”Sandy was speechless. She rolled her eyes at Ivanka. “Are you going to become a full-time jet setter?”“She can’t help it,” Anna answered for Ivanka. Just as she finished saying that, Anna’s phone rang. It was another case to follow up on. She had to step away to take the call.Only Ivanka and Sandy remained in the office. “You look exhausted. If you keep going like this, I’m worried you’ll wear yourself out!” Sandy shook her head and expressed her concern for Ivanka. Ivanka chuckled. “I wouldn’t go that fa

When she heard what Anna said, Ivanka immediately teased. “Why, can’t I even come to the firm?”“Well, of course, you can come. You are an important partner; why can’t you come?” Anna laughed and looked at Ivanka, annoyed. Immediately after, she made a cup of tea for Ivanka.The tea was also of fine quality. She had bought it.Ivanka also remembered how she, Anna, and Sandy, the three of them, used to work hard together in the firm after she divorced Michael. Originally, she wanted to live on her own. However, one thing happened after another, and her plans got delayed. “I don’t see Sandy. Has she gone to handle cases?” Ivanka sipped a mouthful of tea, and immediately after, she asked Anna about Sandy’s whereabouts.Anna told Ivanka truthfully. “Sandy recently took over a very tricky case. She wants to make a not-guilty defense for that person. But the father of the deceased is the Groethe family, a rather prestigious family in Bostone. How could a commoner fight with a rich ki
Love Mission: Pursuing My Stunning Ex-Wife Chapter 2244 What I’m Most Worried About
But as time went on, things happened one after another. While they were in contact with each other, she also slowly understood Jonah’s personality.The most important thing was that Jonah was also honest with her later on.When Jonah mentioned this again, Ivanka could not help but scrutinize Jonah again.He was starting to become unhinged!“Jonah, you need to stabilize your emotions. Sometimes, when you feel impatient, you should just close your eyes and take a good rest. You should not have such emotions.”Ivanka spoke solemnly toward Jonah and advised him. When he saw Ivanka’s serious expression, Jonah instantly also realized that he had lost himself.Ivanka was not like Chiara, who could accept him losing control. If he lost control in front of Ivanka, it would affect Ivanka’s mood. That would make him courting death too! This would put a halt to all his opportunities!Jonah also realized this problem. He was very distressed. He could not even explain why his emotions had
Love Mission: Pursuing My Stunning Ex-Wife Chapter 2243 How Could He Think Like That?
When Ivanka said this, she pressed her hand on Jonah’s shoulder. There was no other meaning, she wanted Jonah to calm down.But this instead gave Jonah an opportunity. He grabbed Ivanka’s wrist. Then he tugged forward forcefully… Ivanka was caught off guard, and her whole body fell on top of him.He then took advantage of the situation and held Ivanka in his arms.The faint scent entered his nose, Jonah was intoxicated for a moment.But at that moment, he felt like he was waking up from a dream.Ivanka could not be so intimate with him. The sensations of touch and warmth in front of him were so real again. It was not an illusion, it was his compulsion!After realizing this, Jonah hurriedly pushed Ivanka away. He even more quickly apologized to Ivanka. “Iv, I’m sorry. I lost control. I didn’t mean to…”“I know.”Ivanka uttered softly, but her tone was cold.She knew. Neither did she blame him. But why was she using that tone, with that look on her face?“No, Iv. you’re blami
Love Mission: Pursuing My Stunning Ex-Wife Chapter 2242 You Are Not An Invalid!
“Jonah, I don’t like you. I told you, I only see you as a friend. When I’m unwilling to do something, no amount of moral coercion would work on me.”Ivanka spoke up bluntly. She did not want Jonah to cling to something impossible.Jonah was silent.This was where Jonah and Michael were different.“Look, you still have so many things to do. By the time you remember me, we have already missed the best time. This time when you leave, did Michael go with you?” Jonah raised his eyes to meet Ivanka’s. He wanted to hear Ivanka’s answer from her mouth.Ivanka did not reply. But the look in her eyes already said it all.Her silence confirmed it all.Jonah felt that his heart grow incredibly heavy at the moment. He had a crazy thought: Was it true that if Michael died, Ivanka would be able to focus all her attention on him?However, he was an invalid and did not even have a chance to get close!“The way you treat Michael and the way you treat me has always been so different. I know. A
