For once, Michael did not listen and slow down. He stepped on the gas pedal.

The car did not stop until they reached the dock.

Ivanka glared at him. She said nothing and did not rush to get out of the car. But it was clear that she was angry.

Michael looked at Ivanka being all puffed up from anger and could not help but feel a little amused. Just as he reached out his hand to rub her hair, Ivanka dodged it.

Michael’s hand froze in mid-air.

He resentfully withdrew his hand and apologized, “I saw that people are already arriving one after another. If people saw you getting off halfway, it would seem even more suspicious, right? It’s better to be graceful and alight at the pier together. No one will overthink or ask too many questions.”

Ivanka still did not answer. However, her expression was not as cold as before, at least it softened quite a bit.

Her glare was not as cold as before either.

Ivanka unbuckled her seatbelt and got out of the car.

Michael also followed right after

    Ivanka was silent.Michael suddenly remembered something and said, “In fact, you are not much older than Candice. She can cry when things happen, and she can be afraid. And you… don’t need to force yourself to hold on.”Michael was trying to say that he had Ivanka’s back. But in the end, he could not say it.Ivanka smiled. It had a hint of mockery in it, but was beautiful and eye-catching.Compared to her, the blue sea instantly seemed to lose its color and became a backdrop to frame her beauty. “I’m not forcing myself to hold on. I simply am unaffected.”With that said, Ivanka left and began greeting everyone.One by one, people boarded the ship. By 4 p.m., almost everyone was here. Most of them were relatively punctual.Ferris and Mandy were exceptions.Candice had just come out of the captain’s room. She walked through the crowd with rushed steps and found Ivanka in a hurry.She said, “The captain asked if we should set sail now. If we keep staying, he’s afraid we won’t

    “I’m sorry, Mr. Clark. I was busy just now and did not receive your call. Ms. Lane is still socializing, and she can’t leave. Her phone is with me.”Ferris kept his anger down and asked, “I’m asking you this now. What do we do now?”Candice said unhurriedly, “Here’s the situation, Mr. Clark. Ms. Lane took into consideration that it would be unsafe to land after dark. So, she set the time to be 4 p.m. on the dot. The both of you were late. But out of sentiment, Ms. Lane has prepared a separate boat for you. As to whether you two want to come or not, it’s all up to you.”After saying that, Candice directly hung up the phone.At that exact moment, a man in a fisherman’s attire approached.When he walked in, Mandy raised and pinched her nose.The fisherman looked embarrassed but remembered his purpose and asked, “Are you Mr. Ferris Clark and Ms. Mandy Cruella?” Mandy refused to speak. Ferris tidied his suit while almost humming a syllable from out of his nose.The fisherman said,

    Smack!A divorce agreement was thrown before Ivanka Lane.“Your sister is awake. I’ve promised her that there won’t be another Mrs. Barkworth as long as she’s alive.“Ivanka, sign the papers. We’re getting a divorce.”Ivanka’s cousin had regained consciousness this month. Since then, Ivanka had known this day would come. Ivanka looked up and, her bitterness was clear. “You still don’t trust me even to this day, do you?”Michael Barkworth snorted. “You’ve been a materialistic woman from beginning to end. Why should I trust you?“Ivanka, I hate repeating myself. Just sign the papers. This mansion is yours, as a final show of respect!” A hint of mockery flashed in Ivanka’s eyes. She thought. “Hmph! Therefore, he thinks he is being merciful by sparing some of his assets for me in the divorce?”She took the divorce agreement and saw his signature at the end of it. Calmly, Ivanka asked, “Do you think Grandma will agree to this?”“Do you think that Grandma can provide you with en

    “I can’t accept the case?” Ivanka sat down on a couch. Suki nodded with a sigh. Ivanka raised one of her eyebrows. “Tell me why.”“Because…”Suki told Ivanka about the case. Ivanka placed one of her hands on her left thigh. Her fingers twitched. Her brown eyes lit up. “That’s interesting. Who are the parties involved?”“It’s pointless even if you find them out…”Ivanka looked up and saw Suki falling silent.“Both parties are leading figures in the commercial arena. A lot of issues are involved in this case, hence both parties decided to turn against each other. Mr. Sadler requested your help, but his opponent is…” Suki heaved a sigh. “We’re losing an immense sum of commission,” said Suki heart-wrenchingly. “His opponent is your husband!”For a moment, Ivanka could not quite breathe calmly. Suki clutched her heart and said with difficulty, “It seems that this case is not meant for us. It’s torture to see such a large sum of money slip from our grasp.”Meanwhile, Ivanka played w

    The man wore a black suit. He looked noble.The two sat opposite each other. He looked gentle as he spoke to Chiara.Ivanka smirked to herself. ‘What a coincidence!’Suki was puzzled. She turned toward in the direction where Ivanka was looking. Suki looked troubled when she saw the duo. “Why are they here too?!”Suki had spoken with so much agitation that Michael turned to look at them. His gaze turned razor-sharp when he saw Ivanka and Suki, and he thought. “No wonder she signed the papers without hesitation and even gave up the mansion. It looks like she’s trying to play hard to get.”Ivanka drew in a deep breath. She thought her next meeting with Michael would be on the day they registered their divorce at the City Hall. She did not expect to see him so much earlier in the restaurant.Ivanka met his gaze and turned away indifferently before dragging Suki to leave.Just then, they heard a voice calling in surprise, “Iv, there you are!”Ivanka turned around and saw Chiara.

    For a moment, Chiara held her cutlery even more tightly. Michael told her that he and Ivanka had gotten a divorce, but they had yet to collect their divorce certificate even though it had been so long!No way, Chiara must not let her efforts go in vain!She said solemnly, “Don’t do that. Why did you two decide to get a divorce so suddenly? Iv, there’s nothing between Mic and me. Why won’t you trust him? If you dislike seeing me around him, I will stop keeping in touch with him in the future.”As Chiara was speaking, she turned to Michael and said seriously, “Even if Iv wants to leave you, I shouldn’t stick my nose into your business and causing you two to split up. Mic, women are very easily pleased. Say some nice things to her, and she won’t ask for a divorce anymore.”Ivanka narrowed her eyes and thought. “She has such a way with words. She’s basically saying that it’s a shame to be dumped by a woman and that I’m throwing a tantrum and that I’d be scared if he really files for

    The hostility in Michael’s eyes was so great that it looked like he was about to kill her with his gaze alone. He then left without a single word.Chiara’s lips curled upward. Her poise was one of elegance and regality.Unbothered, Ivanka looked away and continued the discussion with Flint.After the discussion was over, Ivanka called a cab.She touched her neck habitually, and her expression changed suddenly.Where did her necklace go?!“Sir, please turn around and go back to the Imperial Mansion.”She must have been in a hurry to leave and forgot to put it on.After an hour, Ivanka entered the mansion.The moment she entered the bedroom, Michael was already standing before her dresser. He was lost in his thoughts as he examined his watch.Ivanka was puzzled. Over the past three years of their marriage, he had never entered their bedroom. Today, he was looking at the watch that she once gave him. He used to despise the watch and threw it on the floor. Ivanka was the one wh

    It was from Michael.[How long till the celebration banquet? Don’t forget to invite your benefactor.]Ivanka looked at her cell phone and snorted.If word got out that the great Michael Barkworth cared so much about a spot on a luxury cruise, people would laugh at him. She wanted to tease him for a bit.[We forgot about you. There are no more spots.]He did not reply for a long while. Just when Ivanka thought he would not reply, Michael sent a message.[What? Really? That’s too bad. Then you’ll need to compensate me privately.]For some reason, Ivanka could not stop thinking back to that kiss…Ivanka shook her head as she tried to shake those unrealistic thoughts out of her head.In the end, she sent it over.[Saturday night, 4 p.m., Freshbrooke Pier, The Duchess.]Immediately after that, she did not look at her phone and set it aside.Time passed by rather quickly. Before she knew it, it was Saturday.It was rare for Ivanka to stay home and not go to the company.Natur

    Everyone looked at her.Ivanka smiled mysteriously. “It’s fine to have a celebration banquet. But it’s my treat. We’ll go on a cruise. After all, it’s not just credit to the Project Department alone. The other departments and the other high-level managers have also pulled multiple all-nighters as well.”Naturally, the crowd had no objection.Candice smiled coyly and said sheepishly, “I didn’t think about this thoroughly then. Everyone has truly worked hard during this period.”Ivanka laughed. “Then everyone should quickly go back and get ready!”With a cheer, the crowd dispersed.They left Candice and Ivanka behind. Michael, who was squeezed aside a long while ago also remained.Candice finally realized Michael was there. With some surprise, she called out to her cousin.Michael, who had been ignored, stared quietly at Ivanka. “I’ve figured out what favor I want to be repaid with.”Ivanka stared at him and signaled with her eyes for him to speak.“I want… To attend your celeb

    Candice’s hands were trembling when she went to sign the contract. She felt surreal until the stamped contract was in her hand. It took her a while to recover from her shock. She wanted to share this joy and achievement with Ivanka immediately. But after looking around, she did not see her. Candice was puzzled and got the other staff to look for Ivanka everywhere. At that very moment, Ivanka had just come out of the washroom. She was wiping the water from her hands while looking downward. By the time she realized a shadow was looming over her, it was already too late for her to look up Suddenly, she slammed into a solid wall of flesh.Ivanka let out a hiss and took a half step back.While rubbing the aching corner of her forehead, she looked at the person who came along.Who else could it be, if not Michael? At that moment, he had his hands in his pockets as he stared at her calmly.Ivanka looked around, then stared at his lips.“What? Aren’t you going to thank m

    Yoda’s smile instantly turned stiff. Before he could school his smug grin, the atmosphere became awkward. Ivanka and her group maintained their composure and politeness. But their subordinates snickered behind the back. At the same time, they thanked Michael from the bottom of their hearts. One word from him and the situation was reversed. His statement caught Yoda off guard. Yoda rose. He wanted to burst into anger but he dared not. He wanted to say something, but no words came out. Only after he composed himself, he said, “Mr. Lucas, as you already knew, the other party cannot offer a lower price than this. As a businessman, we don’t always reveal everything from the beginning. I believe you can understand this well too, right?” Lucas said nothing. But his smile was unreadable. He figured out that Michael only wanted his wife to win the tender. The old coot had simply not realized this. Meanwhile, Ivanka sneered, and the crowd turned to her. She said, “Mr. Yoda, are

    Lucas marveled while looking at Michael as if he was seeing a ghost. The tender officially started. This time, five companies were involved. Ivanka had presupposed the possible outcome: Yoda Technology would be the only company that could threaten Lane’s Group. As expected, the other three companies were temporarily asked to leave after giving a round of speeches. The second round of speeches followed. Candice was the chief planner. She naturally had to present the speech on her own this time. “Don’t be nervous.” Ivanka inclined her head and looked at Candice. Candice kept wiping the sweat in her palms. Candice smiled sheepishly. She did not look nervous. Still, this was her first time. Ivanka said, “We’ve done the rehearsals many times before. The proposal is all good. Besides, the promised return is very tempting. You just need to deliver the speech as usual. Cheers.” While Ivanka was saying this, she made a cheering gesture. Candice nodded.
