Love Mission: Pursuing My Stunning Ex-Wife Chapter 1929 No Way
“As for husband and wife, if they have been separated for a long time, why do they have to suffer just to keep it up? Marriage is not something you do alone.”“Your words are very touching, but I do not agree.”Ivanka’s words had some truth in them.She wanted to persuade Jolie as well.Unfortunately, Jolie did not appreciate it and only felt that Ivanka was humiliating her. She was making her deepest heartfelt wounds public and then constantly rubbing salt into them.When she saw nothing worked on Ivanka, Jolie could no longer keep her composure.So Jolie put everything on the table too. She pushed the mocha away. “Ms. Ivanka, this is my family’s family issue. Did you have to come and get involved?”When she saw that Jolie was no longer acting anymore. Ivanka did not feel pressured to hold back anymore. She put down her cup and her eyes were filled with viciousness.“Mrs. Clark, getting to this position was not easy for me. I’ve always held a single belief all along the wa
Love Mission: Pursuing My Stunning Ex-Wife Chapter 1930 Red Roses
Michael did not take long to send over the location.Ivanka glanced at it, confirmed the general location, and drove there.She arrived at the place. It was a shopping mall.Michael stood outside the mall waiting for her. He grinned once he saw Ivanka arrive.He attracted frequent glances from the surrounding people.Michael’s appearance was exceptional. While he waited outside for Ivanka, people kept staring at him. However, Michael looked cold and icy when he did not smile, which helped him prevent a lot of flirting.Of course, some girls were still brave enough to chase after their love and rushed up to ask for Michael’s contact information. They were sent back when Michael replied, “I already have a wife.” Others wanted to see what kind of beauty this handsome man’s partner was.After meeting Ivanka, only did they realize what a match made in heaven meant.The two of them were such a good match in both appearance and temperament. When she saw Michael Ivanka’s gloom fr
Love Mission: Pursuing My Stunning Ex-Wife Chapter 1931 Watching A Movie
An unusual feeling lingered.Accepting this bouquet of roses felt like agreeing to Michael’s request. It was as if she had agreed to a date.Ivanka felt pressure on that thought.She said, “If these roses are given purely as a gesture of friendship, I’ll accept them. But Mr. Barkworth, if these mean something else, I’m afraid I must decline.”Ivanka was straightforward and honest.Until she had sorted out her feelings for him and whether or not to take their relationship further, she did not want to do anything that might cross boundaries or lead Michael on.A relationship that began in ambiguity would inevitably end the same way.She did not want that.Michael’s disappointment was evident, though fleeting. He chose not to dwell on it.Despite his slight sadness, he smiled calmly and said, “It’s a gift between friends. Please accept it without any worries.”Michael chose to change the subject.He said casually, “I bought movie tickets. Want to go together?”Ivanka, still ho
Love Mission: Pursuing My Stunning Ex-Wife Chapter 1932 Be Yourself
He looked genuinely content, so much so that Ivanka could not find the right words to say for a moment.“Actually, you don’t have to do this.”Michael was proud, accomplished, and always carried himself with an air of invincibility.Though he clearly did not know much about dating, not even his assistant Evan had any advice. So, in desperation, he had resorted to scouring the internet for date ideas.Ivanka saw through it, but she chose not to call him out.There was a certain warmth in being cared for and liked so earnestly, even if it was awkwardly executed.Still, she did not want the usually untouchable Michael to lose sight of himself in the process.Ivanka’s smile softened. Then the amusement in her expression slowly faded away.Ivanka took the plush toy from Michael’s hands and handed it to a nearby child who had been waiting impatiently for a turn at the claw machine. His eyes had been glued longingly to the toys inside.The child let out a joyful cheer upon receiving
Love Mission: Pursuing My Stunning Ex-Wife Chapter 1933 Settlement
The owner brought over a plate of freshly grilled barbecue.Everything looked delicious and tempting: cheese-stuffed mushrooms, grilled zucchini, roasted potatoes, lamb skewers, and bacon-wrapped shrimp.Ivanka handed the disposable cutleries to Michael.Michael hesitated for a moment before taking them. He glanced at Ivanka.She gestured toward the platter of barbecue. “Sandy and I found this little gem of a barbecue joint. Give it a try. It’s surprisingly clean for a place like this. There’s no greasy mess everywhere.”She had wiped the table earlier because she thought Michael might not be used to this kind of setting.Michael looked around and took in the surroundings. She was right.There were no drunk men shouting, clinking glasses, or overly loud, rowdy patrons.Nor was it coated in grease, with trash and leftovers strewn all over the floor.It was, surprisingly, quite tidy.Michael nodded. He picked up a piece of grilled lamb and placed it in his mouth.It was noth
Love Mission: Pursuing My Stunning Ex-Wife Chapter 1934 Injury
The next morning, when Ivanka woke up, she found herself lying in her bed at home. For a moment, she was dazed.As her memory clicked into place, she recalled that Michael had brought her back.Thinking about everything that happened the day before, Ivanka rubbed her head and paused. Instead of getting up immediately, she turned her gaze toward the window.Sunlight streamed in. It made her squint against its brightness.It was not until she heard Michael’s voice from outside the room that she snapped back to reality.“Are you awake? If you’re up, come down for breakfast.”Ivanka responded with a soft “okay,” tossed the blanket aside, slid into her slippers, and went to the bathroom to freshen up.When she arrived at the dining room, Michael had already laid out a full spread of food.They were all her favorites.Michael noticed her coming down and pulled out a chair for her.“Have a seat.”Ivanka thanked him and sat down.She glanced at the table filled with food that looke
Love Mission: Pursuing My Stunning Ex-Wife Chapter 1935 The Lawsuit
Michael’s twinkling eyes seemed to say, “You have to take responsibility for me.”Ivanka awkwardly averted her gaze. She scratched her head as she muttered, “Sorry, that was rude of me.”Michael gave a weak smile and brushed it off as if it did not matter.His appearance resembled that of a delicate beauty in distress.Ivanka bit her lip and seemed lost in thought.“You don’t need to blame yourself too much. This isn’t your fault.” Michael tried to comfort Ivanka and lighten her mood.Ivanka did not respond right away. Instead, she suddenly patted Michael’s shoulder. “Since you’re injured, you should skip today’s court hearing.”Today was the official trial date for Ferris and Mandy.Michael was initially supposed to accompany Ivanka. His injury acting up was not part of his plan, but since it happened, he thought he might as well take advantage of it.He wanted to gain some of her sympathy.However, such was not the result he had in mind.Michael immediately sat up straig
Love Mission: Pursuing My Stunning Ex-Wife Chapter 1936 Conciliation Failed
Ivanka considered it as saying hello.However, Jolie was clearly unimpressed. Her sharp and unrelenting gaze bore into Ivanka like a predator locking onto its prey.It was not entirely surprising. After all, they had already fallen out before entering the courtroom.Before the trial began, Jolie had tried to dissuade Ivanka.“If you withdraw the charges now, the Carlova family will be in your debt. In other words, you’ll have our backing.” Jolie had cornered Ivanka in the mediation room for one last attempt to reach a settlement outside court.Over the years, while the Carlova family’s growth had stagnated, their influence remained significant. After all, even a withered camel was larger than a horse. Many would still consider it a privilege to owe them a favor.Ivanka was not surprised by Jolie’s attempt.However, compared to gaining their favor, she was more determined to see Ferris behind bars.Having come so far, there was no turning back. Doing so would betray the hardsh

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
