Love Mission: Pursuing My Stunning Ex-Wife Chapter 1816 Reminisce
Rosie was over the moon, especially because Michael visited her with Ivanka after they went through so many hardships. But she was about to get an even more pleasant surprise. Rosie saw a silhouette show up behind Michael. She fixed her gaze on that person, and it was Candice. Rosie froze in place. Her eyes teared up. Candice walked over to Rosie and hugged her. “How many years have we not seen each other? When you were getting married, I was too weak and couldn’t board an airplane. That’s why I was absent from your wedding and had Iv to attend it on my behalf. Later, I learned that your fiance was a scoundrel.” Rosie sobbed. She had watched Candice grow up. Upon learning the news, Rosie’s heart ached for Candice. Candice patted Rosie’s shoulder to comfort her. “Grandma, it’s okay. The past is the past.” Rosie nodded. “What took you so long to visit me?” Rosie appeared angry on the surface, but her expression was filled with tenderness. She did not mean to blame Candice
Love Mission: Pursuing My Stunning Ex-Wife Chapter 1817 Stay Overnight
Upon hearing Rosie’s statement, Ivanka knew it would be extremely difficult for her to turn down her offer. Meanwhile, Candice turned down Rosie’s offer. Candice said sheepishly, “Grandma, I still need to perfect my proposal. I came in a rush today, so I forgot to bring it over. I’m sorry to disappoint you.” Rosie’s smile faded. Seeing this, Candice patted her chest and promised that she would visit her more often in the future. Although Rosie was reluctant to say goodbye, she was not an unreasonable woman. She pretended to look angry and said, “Are you giving me an excuse simply because you don’t want to accompany an old lady like me?” Candice looked incredulous. “Grandma, how could you think like that?” Then, she smiled. “After I finish my work, I’ll come and bother you every two to three days. I may even stay around permanently. By then, you can’t complain about my annoying presence.” Rosie and Candice laughed. Rosie did not insist Candice stay around. But Rosie kept
Love Mission: Pursuing My Stunning Ex-Wife Chapter 1818 Break Into The Lady’s Chamber At Night
Ivanka looked reluctant. Michael glanced at her. Then he pretended to ask Mrs. Ruth if there were other available rooms. Ivanka shot him a glance. She had a hunch about what was going on. Mrs. Ruth knew both Rosie and Michael very well. She said apologetically, “Mdm. Barkworth only asked me to get these two rooms ready. I’m worried that it’s too late to get the other rooms ready. What is it? Are there any problems with the rooms?” Ivanka shook her head. It was already late. She did not want to cause more trouble. After all, she would only spend one night in the Barkworth family’s mansion. Besides, there was nothing wrong with two rooms sitting right next to each other and sharing a balcony. All she needed to do was to lock the door. Ivanka agreed to stay in her room. Michael said nothing more. She thanked Mrs. Ruth and asked her to take her rest. Mrs. Ruth never once stopped smiling. Since “Mrs. Barkworth” had asked her to take a rest, she smiled and left. Ivanka and Mi
Love Mission: Pursuing My Stunning Ex-Wife Chapter 1819 Something Happened
“You’d better give me a good reason for why you are up awake in my room in the dead of night. I even locked the balcony door!” Michael realized that he had been in the wrong. He shook the “instruments of crime” in his hands and cleared his throat. Then only did he explain. “About that… I didn’t expect you to come out of the shower without clothes.” Ivanka laughed in exasperation. “Are you saying it’s still my fault?” “No, it’s my fault.” Michael shook his head and answered the question seriously. “Get out!” Ivanka pointed at the door and said in a huff. Michael sensed that she might be utterly furious and explained, “I definitely did not intend to see you naked. “I just thought I’d come and ask when I’d drop you off at the office tomorrow. You were showering, so I just sat outside for a while. I didn’t expect that… But don’t worry, since this happened, I’ll definitely take responsibility for you to the end.” Ivanka scoffed in exasperation at his declaration for wanting to
Love Mission: Pursuing My Stunning Ex-Wife Chapter 1820 Stranger
To make things worse, she had no idea if the stranger was in her room before the police arrived. It felt terrible to have your life feeling threatened at all times.Ivanka could empathize with that kind of fear as a lady. So, she was extremely anxious to rush to Candice’s side as soon as she could. She had no idea how she was doing mentally, either.Besides, she doted on her. Michael knew that whatever he said would not work as well as showing Ivanka that Candice was fine herself. So, he stopped pestering her. He stepped onto the gas pedal and accelerated. The black Mercedes sped on the highway. Less than ten minutes later, the two arrived at the police station.Ivanka pushed open the car door and headed for the police station. But Michael stopped her.Ivanka turned back. Before she could see anyone, she felt a warmth on her back. Michael draped a coat over her shoulders. Her nose was filled with a scent that belonged exclusively to him. She felt like he was enveloping him.
Love Mission: Pursuing My Stunning Ex-Wife Chapter 1821 Bitter And Resentful Enemies
Perhaps because she was reliving that traumatic moment, Candice began to shiver again.The police officer brought her a thin blanket to cover her. She still shivered. “Did that person ever speak?” Ivanka inquired.Candice shook her head. “I kept warning the other party. I said I had already called the police and they would be here soon. I also asked who the hell he was, but the only response I got was the door being banged on more and more violently.” When Candice said this, she paused. She did not continue to speak. It seemed like she was caught up in the bad memories and could only hold her head helplessly. Her voice also sounded weak and powerless.A police officer on the side took over. “Eventually, he ran off when he heard our sirens. The person was using a hammer to open the door. When we arrived on the scene, we figured that they would have opened the restroom door in another five or six blows.”Ivanka felt her heart ache and clench in fear for her. She hurriedly hugged Ca
Love Mission: Pursuing My Stunning Ex-Wife Chapter 1822 Unusual Means
The two looked at each other and spoke a name. “Ferris Clark.”“Ferris Clark.” Michael laughed first. Ivanka followed suit. “Speaking of which, it actually has something to do with me. When Candice came, everyone knew I brought her in. When she first came in because she did not have any experience, she was only offered a position as an intern team leader. She thought that she would be transferred to a permanent position after she did a good job. But her report never passed after that. It was stuck in Ferris’s hands. “I will go to the board of directors tomorrow and continue to submit the report. This time it will have to be passed no matter what. I will also take the opportunity to find an excuse to test Ferris. If it’s really him…” Ivanka did not finish speaking, but the ferocity in her eyes made Michael silently pray for Ferris in his heart.Ivanka changed her tone. “But if it’s not someone from Bostone, then we have to consider someone else.”The tacit understanding betwe
Love Mission: Pursuing My Stunning Ex-Wife Chapter 1823 Grateful
Ivanka noticed that the distance between the both of them were a little too close. She moved a little to the side as a form of silent resistance to Micheal’s behavior.Michael only felt lonely for a moment. But he then quickly returned to normal as if nothing had happened.“Candice hasn’t finished giving her statement yet. I know you have to keep her company today, but I don’t agree that you should just sleep here. I’ve booked a hotel in the neighborhood. In a moment, I’ll explain to the people from the police station and send the two of you there.” Ivanka seemed to be a little hesitant.Michael said, “It’s just nearby. It’s about a kilometre away. I’ve reserved two rooms. So, if we need to rush over at night, we can just come over together again. Besides, if you sleep in the lounge for the night, both of you will catch a cold.”Ivanka hesitated and finally nodded.She thanked him and turned to go into the lounge to wake Candice up.Michael’s voice called out from behind her.

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
