Theodore sounded frustrated. He was driving at a glacial pace.

Meanwhile, Michael was in no hurry to open the back seat door after getting out of the car. Chiara had a complicated expression on her face. She inhaled deeply and pushed open the door. She then stretched her leg.

Michael immediately stopped her. “Let’s wait for a while.”

Chiara looked crestfallen. She subconsciously looked at the man in disbelief. “Is it because I was almost... so you don’t like me anymore?” she asked, her voice trembling.

Her face turned pale. She looked at Michael with teary eyes.

Michael frowned slightly. “Don’t overthink it.”

Chiara’s eyes flickered and her tears fell. “I know… I’m not worthy of you anymore, but that day, they didn’t…”

She was unable to complete her sentence.

Michael frowned. “I don’t dislike you. I stayed away from you because I was worried that being close to you would trigger bad memories of that day.

Chiara looked surprised. She suddenly raised her head and asked hopefully

    However, when she got out of the car, instead of walking toward Michael, she looked behind her. Her beautiful brows were slightly knitted together. Michael exited his vehicle as well, sensing that something was wrong.He found out that the car behind her was going too fast, not hers. It hit her car, and then, because of inertia, her car hit his.The third car’s owner had exited his vehicle. He was a greasy middle-aged man with a big belly. His brewing rage vanished when he saw Ivanka, a beautiful woman. He gave her a soft smile and said, “If a young, pretty girl like you was driving, it’s okay that you hit the brakes so quickly.”Ivanka frowned. “So, I’m to blame for you running into the back of my car?”“You clearly hit the car in front of you first. And then you hit mine while trying to flee. Look at the car in front of you and at mine. Both are very expensive. Even if you sell your BMW, you won’t have enough money to compensate us. Why don’t you accompany me on a date? I will pa

    Hanson was a very good friend of hers. It was only right for her to help him. So, she answered, “Sure. You want to see me now?”“Yes, I’m on my way. I thought I’d send you the documents to your office and give you an account of the story.”Michael and Sterling were still there at the moment. Michael had called to arrange for someone to pick him up.Sterling was so intent on buttering up on Michael that he did not dare to leave. However, it was obvious that Michael had lost his patience with him. He looked at him and said, “You are annoying me.”Sterling’s expression changed in an instant. He was enraged the next second.He had groveled to him just now. He could not believe Michael would talk to him like that. He thought. “Being rich doesn’t give him the right to talk to me like that!”But Sterling could not say it out loud, so he could only keep it in his thoughts. He hurriedly said apologetically, “I’m sorry. I’m so sorry, Mr. Barkworth. I will shut up right away!”For a moment

    She thought. “Michael is a lunatic. I don’t want to be in the same place as a man who is so obsessed!”She knew that Michael did not want her to spend too much time with Jonah because Rosie and Jay held her in high regard. If she fell in love with Jonah, she had the potential to turn against Barkworth’s Group. Even if she did that, Rosie and Jay might still let her off the hook. It could be disastrous for Barkworth’s Group. Michael would never let that happen.Even if Michael had not warned her, she was aware of it. She would never go against Barkworth’s Group for the sake of Rosie and Jay.Michael’s expression remained frigid. As they were on the streets, he did not want to argue with her. He also had more pressing matters to attend to at the time. But when Michael saw the car stop, he could clearly see who was driving!Michael scowled angrily!How had he missed the fact that Ivanka could attract so many men?Ivanka did not look at Michael. After she got in the car, she said,

    Hanson’s eyes flickered with disappointment. Sandy…As Sandy’s friend, he was more than willing to let her put her skills to use in this lawsuit. However, he would have one less reason to spend time with Ivanka.He looked at her with mixed emotions. Ivanka pretended to be unaware of what was on his mind. She simply smiled and said, “You are my friend. I won’t lie to you. I wouldn’t have suggested it unless I was certain. So, how about you give Sandy a chance to put her skills into practice?”Hanson let out a sigh and nodded. “All right.”Ivanka put the papers back in the envelope and said nonchalantly, “Okay, then. Pass these documents to Sandy later, or send her an electronic version. I will go into the details with her by then.”Hanson pursed his lips. He stared at Ivanka and said, “Iv, Jonah is a dangerous man.”Ivanka sneered. “I never wanted to do anything with him. He just keeps dragging me into his vengeance plan against Barkworth’s Group. Don’t worry. I know what to do.”

    Ivanka closed her eyes and leaned back in her chair. She finally brought herself to say, “Okay.”“I’ll have to avoid Hanson from now on. He’s still an important friend of mine, but I don’t want him to continue spending so much time with me. This will only lead to more hope and consequent disappointment for him.” She thought. Hanson’s profound eyes shone with an unreadable emotion as he slowly smiled. “Thank you, Iv,” he said softly as he looked at her.Ivanka’s eyes twitched. She paused for a moment before saying gently, “Take me to the law firm.”“Okay.”Hanson obeyed her without question, but this only served to complicate her feelings. Would Ivanka have had to go through so much heartbreak if she had met Hanson first? Would she have had to deal with a husband who was constantly cold to her? Would she be able to live a stable and peaceful life with him?What a shame. Humans were fortune’s fools. She was fated to follow this path and feel these emotions.The journey was si

    “You’re here with me. Of course, I’m confident! I’ve asked him to set up a meeting time for us. I’d like to solve Mr. Lee’s case as well. I’ll need your help with that.” “Alright.”After Ivanka and Sandy finished their breakfast, Ivanka cleaned up the kitchen and changed before leaving. Sandy drove steadily. Her gaze was piqued with interest. “I was furious when Mr. Lee deceived me. Even if we get a few hundred million dollars back as compensation for him, I still don’t think it’s worth it!”Ivanka smiled. “Mr. Lee is just your average bad guy. Before this, I wanted to help you turn the tides, but he might scheme against you in the future. We’ll let him lose a little money. You can help him get the rest of the money back from his client as compensation to make it up for him.”Sandy immediately smiled and nodded. “Hahaha! He’ll want to cry when he finds out how much he’ll lose later! Even if we can’t hurt him, we can make him uncomfortable.” Ivanka chuckled and said nothing els

    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.

    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.

    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?”
