Chapter 282 “Are You Confident?”

Author: Deer
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

    At that moment, they finally caught sight of her name tag in front!When they saw the two words, they jumped out of their skins!Ivanka Lane!How could it be her?!Sterling and his lawyer were completely stunned!Benjamin, who was sitting next to Ivanka, could not help but laugh at the moment.He felt so good!Sterling snapped out of his daze, and his composure had long fallen apart.He glared at Benjamin. Even if he said nothing, his angry gaze already expressed himself!He seemed to be saying, “Benjamin Lee, didn’t you say that your relationship with Ivanka is sour? Didn’t you say Ivanka didn’t accept your case? Why is Ivanka your lawyer now?”At that moment, Sterling continued cursing Benjamin in his heart.Benjamin’s eyes crinkled up because he felt happy.He chuckled as he looked at Ivanka. “Ms. Lane, thank you very much. If not for you, I couldn’t possibly be able to hold my head up high!”Ivanka just pursed her lips. “It’s my duty.”Benjamin was speechless.Screw

    Everyone’s eyes immediately widened.The case had just been presented, so they knew the project was only worth four hundred million dollars.Was it four billion dollars if the case required ten times the loss for compensation?Benjamin widened his eyes and looked at Ivanka in disbelief.Did she just ask for such a huge amount of compensation?!Would this really work?He was instantly heartbroken! If he had known Ivanka was close to Sandy, he would not have bothered Sandy, and the four billion dollars would have been his directly, right?Sandy was just as shocked, and her eyes, too, were suddenly wide with wonder. Darn! Ivanka was so impressive!Meanwhile, Sterling’s face turned blue after hearing what Ivanka said!Similarly, if it were another lawyer, they might laugh with contempt. But who was she? She was the freaking Ivanka Lane! She was Ivanka Lane!Ivanka began her narration while everyone was still in shock. The clarity of her speech left no room for the other party to

    “Ms. Lane, you’re truly impressive.”Sterling suppressed his anger while he spoke to Ivanka.Ivanka gave Sterling a sideways look. When she saw his murderous gaze, she just responded with a calm expression, “Thank you for the compliment, Mr. Hall.”Benjamin chuckled as he looked at Sterling. “Mr. Hall, I’ll wait for the money transfer.”Sterling snorted loudly and left!Benjamin laughed and looked at Ivanka. “Ms. Lane, this case started because of me. I won’t let Sterling hurt you. If you need me to do anything, just let me know anytime!”Ivanka just smiled. “Thank you in advance, Mr. Lee.”“It’s nothing!” Benjamin was in a good mood now. He did not feel as sad as he did in the beginning.Ivanka chatted with him for a while before she left with Sandy.Sandy kept laughing, and she was extremely happy. “Ivanka, you’re amazing! We’re talking about four billion dollars! You actually requested it successfully!”Meanwhile, Ivanka kept her cool. “Yeah, the money’s for you.”“What t

    “Mr. Barkworth, Benjamin filed a lawsuit against Sterling today, and Benjamin won.”Michael frowned slightly and looked at Evan. He did not speak, but the meaning of his look was obvious. Did Evan have to report such news to him?Evan stroked his nose before he spoke again, “The lawyer who helped Benjamin in the lawsuit was Ms. Lane.”Right then, Michael’s gaze turned colder. He instantly recalled the man standing behind Ivanka when she was previously interviewed by reporters—it was Benjamin.Evan understood his CEO, so he quickly continued reporting.“Benjamin went to Ms. Lane with the intention of blackmailing her at first. He was banking on her failure to win to earn back his losses. If she failed, he could receive fifty million dollars as compensation from her. Ms. Lane agreed to the condition because she was sticking up for Ms. McNeil. Anyway, I heard from Mr. Lee’s side that Ms. Lane will be receiving four billion dollars.”Michael frowned. Ivanka had avenged Sandy and left

    Ivanka kept frowning on the way there, as thought something was on her mind. She gradually collected herself only after she parked her car and arrived at the company’s entrance. Naturally, it was done intentionally so that she would appear calm.Just as she was about to call Chiara, she suddenly heard Chiara’s voice behind her. “Ivanka.”Ivanka turned around and saw Chiara in a wheelchair. She was looking at her with a smile.There was a secretary behind Chiara, and she was pushing Chiara in Ivanka’s direction.Ivanka nodded. “Uncle Theodore said you’re working although you’re still injured. Why don’t you come back to the company after you’ve fully recovered?”Chiara chuckled as she shook her head. “My injury isn’t a big deal. Besides, I still have a lot of work to do, and I can’t put them off anymore. Let’s go, I’ll take you to your department.”Mockery flashed in Ivanka’s eyes. Chiara’s relapse was totally fake. She was doing this because she wanted people to believe that she w

    When they saw Ivanka, there was clear surprise in their eyes. Some of them already recognized her.Was… Was she not the daughter of their previous boss?She was also the ex-wife of Mr. Barkworth from Barkworth’s Group and the woman Mr. Sadler was currently pursuing. On top of that, she was the famous and impressive lawyer, Iris!Everything related to her identity was so sensational that most of them knew her.All of them put aside their work as they looked in Ivanka’s direction.However, some people greeted Chiara and Patty.“Ms. Lane, Ms. Ramirez.”Chiara was also a manager in the Audit Department, and she was Patty’s superior in the Public Relations Department.In their opinion, Chiara was rather friendly. She did not obsess over her reputation, and she would ask them to just call her Ms. Lane.Chiara smiled and nodded at the staff members. “Hi, your new colleague is my cousin. I guess you probably know her already, but I came here today to talk to you not because I want you

    Ivanka nodded. Chiara then left after she talked for a while.Some people in the office lowered their heads and resumed working, while others smiled and greeted Ivanka. She was very friendly, but she was quite quiet as Chiara said.Patty looked at Ivanka and softly said, “Ms. Lane, I know that you have a noble background, but in my department, I will not give you any special treatment for your status. Even if Ms. Chiara didn’t instruct me, I would not grant you the advantage under the table. I hope you understand.”Patty was someone who would make a clear distinction between work and personal interest, and she was very strict in the workplace. As she said, she would not give anyone special treatment, and she would not be prejudiced against anyone. It was work for her, nothing personal.Ivanka naturally nodded. “Of course.”When Patty realized that Ivanka was neither prideful nor grumpy, she began to like Ivanka a little. Only then did she look at the other staff members. “Carry on

    Egbert stormed off in fury, but Sandy’s rage had not cooled in the slightest. She even lashed out at Ivan. “You shouldn’t have stopped me just now! If I’d given him a good scolding, or even a beating, maybe it would’ve finally knocked some sense into him. Otherwise, he’ll keep coming back. He’s always trying to use me for his own purposes!”She was so angry she was practically grinding her teeth. Ivan pressed his lips together and let out a long sigh. “With the way you looked like you were ready to kill someone, what did you expect me to do? Just stand there and watch you commit murder?”He was really worried when he saw how Sandy was losing control. “What’s the point of that old b*stard still being alive anyway?” Sandy said coldly. If she could really get rid of that old man, she would do it so she could avenge her mother and let go of that grudge she had been holding on.Ivan shook his head and said in a low voice, “Then think about it, how hard did you work to get to where yo

    Sandy exploded. “Eighty million? Why don’t you go rob a bank? Or better yet, see if that wrinkled old face of yours is worth anything as collateral!”Sandy was fuming.Egbert had not expected Sandy to be so vulgar. He turned back, enraged.His black eyes shot daggers like he could rip her apart on the spot. Sandy did not flinch. Instead, she lifted her chin and gave him a cold, mocking smile. “What? Are you so mad that you’re thinking about hitting me? Do you want me to remind you of the law? We have no legal ties anymore. If you so much as touch me, that’s assault. And let’s not forget, you barged into my workplace to cause a scene.”“Sandy, I don’t know what kind of twisted morals your birth mother and adoptive mother taught you, but just look at yourself now! Do you even resemble a proper human being?”Egbert was extremely disappointed in Sandy. The one thing Sandy hated most was when people brought up her birth mother and adoptive mother. Those two women were the most import

    Egbert snapped at Sandy coldly. His gaze was pressing.However, that had no effect on Sandy. Her lips even curled into a mocking smile as she said, “I’m not one of your McNeil pets. That look, your words, they cannot intimidate me at all.”At the mention of “pets,” Egbert was so furious that he slammed his cane against the floor with a loud crack. “Listen to yourself! Is that any way for a lawyer to speak? Do you even understand the meaning of respect, decency, and manners? Is that how your mother raised you?”Sandy had been mean and harsh on purpose to kill whatever sliver of hope he held onto.Just as she wished, he was angered.Watching him lose his composure, Sandy even felt a flicker of satisfaction rise within her. Her mother and herself were thrown out and lived a tough life while her father stood by uselessly. Who else was to blame, if not this old man standing before her?“My mother raised me to be a decent person. She taught me never to push away what’s rightfully mine,

    Thomas stated his purpose.Sandy’s reaction, however, was full of repulsion. She frowned. Even her tone was curt. “Uncle, I made it very clear about seeing him the last time we spoke. He never once considered me part of the McNeil family. If it weren’t for my mother taking me in, I wouldn’t be where I am today. Now that I’ve grown up and suddenly seem useful, he wants to claim me back? I was abandoned by the McNeil family the moment I was born. I’m not stupid enough to become a pawn for your family!”Sandy was furious.She had always treated Thomas with a certain courtesy, but at the moment, that line had clearly been crossed.Thomas, though only the messenger, could feel the weight of her resentment. “It may not be as bad as you think. If you won’t go, Dad will come find you himself.”That was the truth. Yet Sandy did not spare the old man a shred of respect. She scoffed. “He might be your dad, your head of the family, but he’s nothing to me. From the moment I was abandoned, th

    Sandy was really surprised to see Ivanka. “When did you get back?”“Today,” Ivanka answered honestly.“You have quite a packed schedule for just one day.” Sandy teased her.When they had planned to take down Coco last time, Ivanka was not around. Then Michael returned. From what Sandy could tell, they were always either together or closely following each other.Ivanka did not respond to her teasing. “I’ll only be here for a day or two, then I would have to leave again.”Sandy was speechless. She rolled her eyes at Ivanka. “Are you going to become a full-time jet setter?”“She can’t help it,” Anna answered for Ivanka. Just as she finished saying that, Anna’s phone rang. It was another case to follow up on. She had to step away to take the call.Only Ivanka and Sandy remained in the office. “You look exhausted. If you keep going like this, I’m worried you’ll wear yourself out!” Sandy shook her head and expressed her concern for Ivanka. Ivanka chuckled. “I wouldn’t go that fa

    When she heard what Anna said, Ivanka immediately teased. “Why, can’t I even come to the firm?”“Well, of course, you can come. You are an important partner; why can’t you come?” Anna laughed and looked at Ivanka, annoyed. Immediately after, she made a cup of tea for Ivanka.The tea was also of fine quality. She had bought it.Ivanka also remembered how she, Anna, and Sandy, the three of them, used to work hard together in the firm after she divorced Michael. Originally, she wanted to live on her own. However, one thing happened after another, and her plans got delayed. “I don’t see Sandy. Has she gone to handle cases?” Ivanka sipped a mouthful of tea, and immediately after, she asked Anna about Sandy’s whereabouts.Anna told Ivanka truthfully. “Sandy recently took over a very tricky case. She wants to make a not-guilty defense for that person. But the father of the deceased is the Groethe family, a rather prestigious family in Bostone. How could a commoner fight with a rich ki

    But as time went on, things happened one after another. While they were in contact with each other, she also slowly understood Jonah’s personality.The most important thing was that Jonah was also honest with her later on.When Jonah mentioned this again, Ivanka could not help but scrutinize Jonah again.He was starting to become unhinged!“Jonah, you need to stabilize your emotions. Sometimes, when you feel impatient, you should just close your eyes and take a good rest. You should not have such emotions.”Ivanka spoke solemnly toward Jonah and advised him. When he saw Ivanka’s serious expression, Jonah instantly also realized that he had lost himself.Ivanka was not like Chiara, who could accept him losing control. If he lost control in front of Ivanka, it would affect Ivanka’s mood. That would make him courting death too! This would put a halt to all his opportunities!Jonah also realized this problem. He was very distressed. He could not even explain why his emotions had

    When Ivanka said this, she pressed her hand on Jonah’s shoulder. There was no other meaning, she wanted Jonah to calm down.But this instead gave Jonah an opportunity. He grabbed Ivanka’s wrist. Then he tugged forward forcefully… Ivanka was caught off guard, and her whole body fell on top of him.He then took advantage of the situation and held Ivanka in his arms.The faint scent entered his nose, Jonah was intoxicated for a moment.But at that moment, he felt like he was waking up from a dream.Ivanka could not be so intimate with him. The sensations of touch and warmth in front of him were so real again. It was not an illusion, it was his compulsion!After realizing this, Jonah hurriedly pushed Ivanka away. He even more quickly apologized to Ivanka. “Iv, I’m sorry. I lost control. I didn’t mean to…”“I know.”Ivanka uttered softly, but her tone was cold.She knew. Neither did she blame him. But why was she using that tone, with that look on her face?“No, Iv. you’re blami

    “Jonah, I don’t like you. I told you, I only see you as a friend. When I’m unwilling to do something, no amount of moral coercion would work on me.”Ivanka spoke up bluntly. She did not want Jonah to cling to something impossible.Jonah was silent.This was where Jonah and Michael were different.“Look, you still have so many things to do. By the time you remember me, we have already missed the best time. This time when you leave, did Michael go with you?” Jonah raised his eyes to meet Ivanka’s. He wanted to hear Ivanka’s answer from her mouth.Ivanka did not reply. But the look in her eyes already said it all.Her silence confirmed it all.Jonah felt that his heart grow incredibly heavy at the moment. He had a crazy thought: Was it true that if Michael died, Ivanka would be able to focus all her attention on him?However, he was an invalid and did not even have a chance to get close!“The way you treat Michael and the way you treat me has always been so different. I know. A
