Ivanka laughed internally. She was aware that Theodore did not want her to work in her best department.

Even though she had voiced her desire to reclaim Lane’s Group, she knew that she could not immediately do it. After all, they had signed a contract. It would be difficult to persuade the old coot to return the company to her.

Moreover, before Ivanka’s father passed away, he did not make a will. As Ivanka’s father’s eldest brother, Theodore had the right to inherit his company.

Since she did not have a lot of company shares back then, she signed the contract without hesitation.

Now, Ivanka wanted to reclaim not only her own shares but also the shares that belonged to Theodore and his family.

She wanted to unmask them and kick them out of Lane’s Group!

“Uncle Theodore, do continue.”

Chiara and Lyla did not say a thing. At that moment, they naturally trusted Theodore. He must have his reasons for his actions.

Theodore sighed before he said, “Iv, you’re aware that we ofte

    The next moment, Theodore acted surprised and laughed. “That’s great! It’s good that you can stay!” Chiara looked extremely happy. “Iv, you’re finally willing to come back and stay with us!” She repeated the word, “finally” again. Ivanka was absolutely sure that they were recording their conversation. She was recording their conversation too, so she was not concerned even if they garbled and twisted her words. Ivanka nodded. “I didn’t come home previously because my father died here. I didn’t have the courage to face the place he used to live in. It’s been so long, and I can’t hide from it forever. I’ll stay in my dad’s room tonight. Uncle Theodore, did anyone move anything in my dad’s room?” “N-No. Everything is still the same!” Theodore had always been annoyed with her father’s room because that place was the master bedroom. Although Theodore and his family were the owners of the mansion, they could not sleep in that room due to the demands of morals. They had to sleep in

    Theodore and his family grew increasingly excited as they chatted. They agreed with Theodore’s decision, and the corners of Chiara’s lips curled up slightly. “Ivanka thinks that she’s invincible simply because she’s an elite lawyer. Dad, I understand why you made such a decision. If you had refused to let her return to our home, she might end up working together with our competitors to stand against us. If she finds any loopholes in the contracts and helps them with their lawsuit, we’ll have to pay a huge sum as compensation. We might as well allow her to join the company so that we can keep an eye on her.” Theodore looked at Chiara in satisfaction. “Chiara, you’re as clever and capable as a man. I’ll be relieved to let you take over our family affairs in the future.” Lyla could not help but nod with amazement. “That’s right. Chiara, you’re really intelligent. We can rest assured when the time comes for you to take over Lane’s Group.” Chiara smiled. “The three of us should work t

    “Got it.” Michael did not give Evan any further instructions, so Evan acknowledged his answer and left. ...... Thanks to her tireless efforts, Ivanka finally found a bottle of medicine inside the room. The bottle had no label. In fact, it had nothing on it. She opened it and saw a few white lozenge-shaped pills. She wondered, “What kind of medicine is this? Was Dad diagnosed with some kind of disease before? Did he keep it from me because he didn’t want me to worry about him?” Ivanka pursed her lips. She did not want to alert Theodore and his family, so she took two pills out of the medicine bottle before putting it back in its place. She could not find any more clues inside the room, so she eventually gave up searching for them. She then took a shower and slept in her father’s room. She did not sleep well that night. Just as she was about to drift off, she thought she saw her father inside the room. Ivanka woke up with a start and tried to call out to her father, b

    Ivanka nodded and said nothing. She appeared to be at ease. Lyla placed the food on the table, and they ate together. Chiara cast a glance at Ivanka before she hesitantly said, “Iv, are you still angry with me because of that incident during Rosie’s birthday? Ivanka looked at her. “Why would I be? If I was angry with you, why would I come back and eat with you?” Chiara was speechless. Ivanka’s words were unyielding, and they left no room for discussion. As such, Chiara did not know what to say next! She drew a deep breath and said in resignation, “The incident isn’t what you think it is. I had no intentions of outdoing you with that gift. After all, we’re cousins. We don’t compete with each other, but those people deliberately drove a wedge between us. That’s why it turned into a misunderstanding. Iv, I didn’t buy the rosary as a gift. Someone else swapped it with my gift.” Ivanka was indifferent. They had already turned against each other, yet Chiara was still saying the

    Chiara’s calm exterior cracked slightly. Theodore and Lyla both raised their heads one after the other. They had wanted to interrupt several times, but the opportunity never came.“What did she say?” Lyla wondered aloud.Ivanka smiled slightly as she looked at Chiara. “Grandma told me she still likes you very much, but you’re too much of a schemer. It’s not uncommon for you to plot against people in various situations. If at all possible, she would like to address you as her granddaughter-in-law. In spite of all the wrongs you have committed, you are still so adamant about maintaining your innocence and getting out of the situation scot-free. Even if you manage to prove that this had nothing to do with you, it doesn’t mean everyone is blind, right?Chiara’s demeanor shifted.She thought. “Ivanka is laying a trap!“She is aware that I am recording this conversation, so she purposefully used Grandma to scare me. I’m not going to be intimidated!”Just as she was about to release the

    Ivanka nodded. “I’ll gladly assist. I won’t just stand by and watch the Lanes struggle through the crisis, but Uncle Theodore, we can’t make ill-gotten gains.”Theodore chuckled. “That’s for certain. You can rest assured that all of our businesses are legal.”Ivanka nodded. She was convinced. After all, Theodore did not have the stomach to engage in illegal activities.He had previously been imprisoned for similar offenses, so he was already terrified.“All right, I can’t wait to see you around the office.”Theodore suddenly felt it was the right decision to allow Ivanka to join the company. At the very least, she would remain optimistic on her chances while staying with the Lane family and would give her all to the Lane family.When the Lane family faced future problems, they would be able to solve them with ease!With Iris’s help, no one dared to sue the Lane family because they could not win!Chiara had a similar thought. Her hatred for Ivanka was fading at this point. After

    With a complicated expression, he frowned slightly. Ivanka sat facing the tombstone, so she could not see him. Despite being some distance away, he could hear everything she said.Ivanka raised her hand and gently touched the man’s face in the photograph. Her heart was racing. “I should’ve listened to you, Dad. I shouldn’t have married him.”A short distance away, the man’s face darkened and his eyes narrowed. Fearing that he would shock her if he looked over, he quickly reined himself in. Now more than ever, he was curious to know her thoughts.Ivanka sighed softly. “You once told me that I had to marry the right person. Otherwise, it would be better not to get married. But I really liked him. Dad, did you know that? I liked him. I’m not even sure how many years I have liked him. I only recall being unable to forget him after meeting him as a child.”The man was taken aback and looked at her in shock. However, he laughed in his heart the next moment. Despite the fact that she had

    After taking a step forward, he suddenly stopped with a complicated expression. He was perplexed as to why he had approached her rashly.It could be Ivanka’s scheme.She expected him to come here, so she paid a special visit to her father. She hoped to meet him by chance and have him hear these words so that he would be moved.Michael sneered. Ivanka was smart.“Dad, even though I live alone, you can rest assured. I believe I can live without a man. My life is going well. I’ve spent the last three years attempting to become a qualified Mrs. Barkworth. I abandoned my career and everything I enjoyed because I believed that was expected of a Mrs. Barkworth. However, I don’t have to give up on them anymore. Dad, I’ll be myself, just like what you told me. Being myself is the happiest thing.“Although I wasted three years on him, it’s still not too late. Dad, watch me become the brightest star in the sky. I will not disappoint you!”Ivanka leaned against the tombstone. Michael stood b

    Michael pursed his lips and took the initiative to apologize to Ivanka.Ever since they got back from Mirvania, Michael’s attitude toward her had toned down considerably compared to the past. Michael had indeed changed a lot.However, even though he changed, they could not live a honeymoon life like other couples and spouses.Ivanka corrected him. “Micheal, we can’t put it that way. No one expected this change. We came here on Grandma’s behalf with all our blessings. But we did not expect this wedding to go south. I’ll admit that my emotions were somewhat affected when I saw something like this.” “But, what’s the main issue? I think that I’m tired. I wish you wouldn’t pursue me so tightly. Let’s part while we are on good terms. I know that you know what that phrase means.”As she said that, Ivanka saw the flight attendant walk over.She waved toward the flight attendant, who then gently bent down and smiled at her nicely. “Hello ma’am, what can I do for you?” “Hello, can you c

    Naturally, Ivanka and Michael could not get involved to clear the mess after that. It was almost time for them to return as well.“You’re leaving before I can thank you.” Candice took Ivanka’s hand. She was grateful from the bottom of her heart.“I originally came to attend the wedding, but I didn’t expect to witness it take such a turn. I’ll have to go back and explain to Grandma about it.” Ivanka said with a smile.Candice hurriedly nodded and smiled. She looked at Ivanka and said, “Ivanka, send my regards to Grandma. After things are settled over here, I will definitely go visit her.”Ivanka smiled. “Then it’s a deal.”“It’s a deal.”… On the airplane, Ivanka’s mood was down the entire time.Michael spoke to her several times and did not get any response. He frowned slightly when he saw that Ivanka was about to sleep. He directly pulled her hand.Ivanka immediately tried to pull her hand back but she was not as strong as him. She opened her eyes and looked at him unhappily

    Just as he was about to say something else, a clear voice suddenly spoke.“I told them to play it. Is there a problem?”The crowd looked for the voice and saw Candice in a white dress. She looked serene and cool. It was a different kind of beauty.But this was not a wedding. It was obviously a funeral.Everyone looked at the heroine who was supposed to appear today. Shock crossed their eyes. It looked like the bride found out about their despicable deed. Immediately after, the bride said in a mocking voice once again, “Leonardo, how does it feel to lose your reputation? You experienced it before me. Do you like the wedding gift I gave you?”Candice looked at him. Her brow was calm and void of emotion.Leonardo was already extremely cranky. In a way, he was at the end of his rope. He looked at her incredulously. “What do you mean by that?!” Candice sneered. “I didn’t mean anything by that. Just letting everyone present witness and see clearly for themselves what mangy dogs d

    At that moment, there was a crazy video rolling on the big screen. The video was unsightly. The man and woman on the bed were “wrestling” frantically with the woman’s coquettish voice calling out at the same time. Also, the facilities here were top notch and equipped with 3D surround sound. The guests had no idea what to do when they heard.Some of the sharp-eyed guests spotted the man and woman in the video in a single glance. “My goodness! Aren’t these two the groom, Leonardo, and the bride’s best friend Jennifer?!”The moment these words came out, it instantly set off an uproar!Jennifer was instantly dumbfounded when she saw the video! But the next moment she screamed in panic. “Turn it off! Turn it off! It’s not me at all!” It was just that, not only were her shouts futile, but she felt the contemptuous disdainful glances thrown at her from all sides!She could even feel like some of the men were undressing her with their eyes! She was screaming! “Turn it off! Turn

    When she put on makeup, her features looked even more exquisite. She looked sharper. Michael’s gaze paused for a moment. Why had he not realized it in the past? Ivanka glanced at him and spoke directly. “I’m good to go. Let’s go there now?” “Yes.” Michael quickly collected his thoughts and rushed to the wedding venue with her. There were a lot of guests. Those who came were all the city’s upper-class people and everyone was open and relaxed. They were able to navigate their way in a situation like this and take the opportunity to meet more work partners.The groom also weaved in and out of the crowd. He was beaming and full of life.Jennifer was with him. The two of them were welcoming the guests together. Those who did not know any better might even think that the two of them were the new couple. Everyone arrived one after another. It was just that… Only the bride and Jarek were missing.The crowd could not help but be a little confused. Right among the murmuring

    Of course, he was referring to Jarek, who was screaming on the ground. Ivanka and Michael’s eyes met across the distance. They exchanged a look with each other. In the end, they chose to stay out of it. What should have been done was done. No matter the outcome, it was Candice’s own choice. Michael took a step back and came to Ivanka’s side. “Thanks.” Candice stared at Ivanka and sincerely thanked her once again. She was not stupid, so naturally, she could see that her cousin greatly respected his wife’s opinion. On the other hand, Ivanka was highly self-sufficient.Not long after, the security guards came and took Jarek away. After Candice said goodbye to the two, she left in the opposite direction.Ivanka and Michael went back to their rooms together.On the way back, Ivanka’s brows remained furrowed, and Michael turned to look at her. “Still worried about her?”Ivanka’s eyes flashed, then she looked at Michael and said softly, “Do you think that she will be soft-h

    Leonardo had always been a perfect boyfriend. He was so perfect and seemed to have been specially made for Candice. Candice used to find it suspicious. But she dared not probe further into her own suspicions. Since things had turned out like so, she had no choice but to confront it. Candice’s heart was filled with a slew of anxiousness and complications. Despite this, she held back her emotions. Without further hesitation, she lifted the blanket and got down from the bed. She walked to the room next door. Ivanka gave Michael a look so that he would bring Jarek along. Michael was amused. He believed Ivanka must have treated him as her bodyguard. She was the first woman who had dared to give him an order. Despite this, Michael did as he was told. After all, Ivanka was not supposed to get involved in all this in the first place. It was all about the Barkworth family’s business. When Michael confronted Jarek, Michael’s temper instantly turned foul. He glared at Jarek.

    Bam! The room door was kicked open all of a sudden. Michael was the one who kicked the door open. The man in the formal suit had just taken off half of his pants when Michael entered the room. Michael exuded an air of standoffishness. The man looked dumbfounded. He did not know if he should put back on his pants or remove them. Ivanka was behind Michael. He did not let her enter the room. “On the count of three, put your pants on, or else—” Michael did not finish his sentence, but the man in the formal suit was so scared that his entire body trembled. The man knew that if he did not act as he was told, he would lose his d*ck. So the man quickly put his pants on comically. While Michael was entering the room, Ivanka followed him. She ignored the man in the formal suit and went to the bed where Candice was laying. They had made quite a commotion when they entered the room. Despite this, Candice laid motionlessly on the bed. Apparently, she had been drugged. It l

    Jennifer took the man to Candice in the middle of the night. Things did not seem good. Ivanka knew something bad was going to befall Candice. She was about to follow them when someone behind her abruptly stopped her. Ivanka’s eyes flew wide open. Her scream got stuck in her throat. The man’s large hand had covered her mouth. At the same time, a familiar smell entered her nostrils, and she gave up trying to let go of herself from the man’s grasp. “Why are you giving up so easily?” As expected, Ivanka heard a familiar voice. She turned around and saw Michael’s playful smile. “I know it’s you, so there’s no need to keep trying to free myself,” answered Ivanka truthfully. “How did you know it’s me?” Her answer piqued his interest. Ivanka was about to explain when a thought struck her mind. After that, she kept quiet. “It’s a secret.” Before Michael could continue the topic, Ivanka decided to skip and end it by asking, “You saw everything. What do you think about it?”
