Love Mission: Pursuing My Stunning Ex-Wife Chapter 289 Be More B*tchy Than a B*tch
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
Love Mission: Pursuing My Stunning Ex-Wife Chapter 290 Do My Best
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
Love Mission: Pursuing My Stunning Ex-Wife Chapter 291 A Troubled Chiara
If this were the past, she might not have thought about it. However, she knew about the incident at Mdm. Barkworth’s birthday party, so she realized that there had to be a rift between the cousins. Chiara sounded like a nice person on the surface, but she was actually trying to sideline Ivanka.Luckily, nobody was protecting her. Even if she was capable, she could not become an executive in Lane’s Group. Tsk! Since Chiara wanted to promote Scarlet, she would naturally have to earn it. She curled her lips into a malicious smile.Coincidentally, she had a few cases that could make Ivanka quit due to how difficult they were. Right then, she returned to her office and prepared to take out those projects.Meanwhile, Ivanka was observing her surroundings. Rebecca waved at her. “Ms. Lane, here.”Ivanka looked over in the voice’s direction and saw that a sweet-looking girl was greeting her with a smile. Noticing that Rebecca was pointing at the empty seat beside her, Ivanka walked over.R
Love Mission: Pursuing My Stunning Ex-Wife Chapter 292 This Is an Order
Scarlet smiled faintly. “Ms. Chiara hopes that you’ll be properly trained so that you won’t need to worry. She said that this was agreed between the two of you previously, so I might need to give you some rather difficult tasks. May I ask if you’re willing to accept them?”Before Ivanka was there, they would call Chiara “Ms. Lane.” Now Ivanka had joined, they called her Ms. Chiara to differentiate the cousins.Rebecca was slightly surprised. “But… Ms. Lane just arrived today, and I’ve sent her some recordings.”Scarlet cast a glance at Rebecca. If she was promoted to manager, she guessed that the assistant manager position would become Rebecca’s. Therefore, she did not refute Rebecca. She just smiled, looked at Ivanka, and said, “Ms. Lane, you’re different from the others, and Ms. Chiara has different expectations when it comes to you. As such, would you consider working based on the company standard but at a higher difficulty?”Scarlet appeared very humble, but she was actually ca
Love Mission: Pursuing My Stunning Ex-Wife Chapter 293 Can You Tell Me the Procedure?
Ivanka just smiled. “Ms. Zeniah was right. Chiara wants to train me. If I disagree, I would be humiliating her. Chiara is doing this for me, so I’ll give it a try.”Everyone was stunned. It seemed like Ivanka had let it slip by accident, but those who heard her felt different now.Chiara said that she was making things more challenging for Ivanka’s sake. However, if it was too difficult, how could Ivanka complete the task since she was just a newcomer? She even needed to keep up with the company’s standard and system. If all her points were deducted, she would have to leave.How could she return to Lane’s Group in the future?Therefore, it would be even more impossible for her to manage Lane’s Group because she would not be qualified.Was this her way of keeping Ivanka away from Lane’s Group so that she could not take advantage of the company?The staff members appeared to be conflicted at this moment.However… some had always believed in Chiara, while others did not care about
Love Mission: Pursuing My Stunning Ex-Wife Chapter 294 It’s Time to Look for Michael
Rebecca nodded in resignation. “Okay.” She took the proposal and said to Ivanka, “First, you have to gain an understanding of the project and the person who planned it. You have to communicate with him and find out the essence of the project before negotiating with Mr. Barkworth. Here it is.” Rebecca pointed at the name and phone number of the person who wrote the proposal. “Johnson Cedar created this project. You can discuss it with him. As for getting Mr. Barkworth’s signature, I can’t help you with that.” One of their company’s employees had previously negotiated with Michael, but it was in vain. Rebecca knew that Michael was the person in charge of the project because some employees had tried to negotiate with him in the past but failed. Later, Rebecca provided Ivanka with more information, and Ivanka nodded. “Thank you.” “Sigh, it’s my job. After this, you’ll have to find a way to persuade Mr. Barkworth.” Rebecca shook her head in resignation. She did not believe Iv
Love Mission: Pursuing My Stunning Ex-Wife Chapter 295 Might as Well Rob a Bank
Ivanka found this ironic. In the past, the only time she looked for Michael was to ask when he would go back and eat. This time, she was coincidentally going to ask him when he would be free to have a meal together. She hesitated for a while before calling Michael’s assistant. When Evan saw Ivanka’s phone number, he was a little puzzled. Although Michael had divorced her, Evan had not deleted her phone number. He believed that Michael never had a clean break from her. Hence, Evan answered Ivanka’s call without hesitation. “Hello, Ms. Lane.” “Mr. Hawke, I’m Ivanka from the Public Relations Department in Lane’s Group. I’m calling about the newlywed proposal which Mr. Barkworth previously turned down. I’ve made changes to it, so could you let me know when he’ll be free? Could we have a meal together?” Ivanka said softly. Evan was surprised. In fact, Michael was free that night. However, Evan dared not tell her that. “Mr. Barkworth is having a meeting now. I’ll talk to hi
Love Mission: Pursuing My Stunning Ex-Wife Chapter 296 Tell Her to Give Up
Rebecca was puzzled. “I-I’ve never seen them before.” Ivanka chuckled. “It’s no surprise that you haven’t seen them before.” Rebecca’s expression changed slightly. “This is strange. Why are there so many similar types of proposals? If we bring these to our clients, how could they possibly agree? Oh, my God! Iv, did you…” Rebecca did not know what to say anymore. Meanwhile, the employees inside the office stared at them. Ivanka casually unfolded the folders for the other two proposals. Similarly, these proposals demanded their clients to invest first, and Lane’s Group would profit from them. Ivanka mocked the company in her heart. These proposals had previously been dismissed. Based on the contents of the proposals, Lane’s Group would not suffer any losses from the collaborations. However, it was obvious to see that the company was taking advantage of its collaborators. Before Ivanka joined Lane’s Group, the proposals had been put aside. However, after she joined the com

Love Mission: Pursuing My Stunning Ex-Wife Chapter 2250 Why Don’t You Just Marry Me
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
Love Mission: Pursuing My Stunning Ex-Wife Chapter 2249 Not How A Proper Young Lady Should Behave
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
Love Mission: Pursuing My Stunning Ex-Wife Chapter 2248 Bring Me Eighty Million
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,
Love Mission: Pursuing My Stunning Ex-Wife Chapter 2247 You Sure Have A Lot Of Attitude
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
Love Mission: Pursuing My Stunning Ex-Wife Chapter 2246 The Wealth Gap Is A Major Factor
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
Love Mission: Pursuing My Stunning Ex-Wife Chapter 2245 Would Beat Us Both To Death
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
Love Mission: Pursuing My Stunning Ex-Wife Chapter 2244 What I’m Most Worried About
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
Love Mission: Pursuing My Stunning Ex-Wife Chapter 2243 How Could He Think Like That?
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
Love Mission: Pursuing My Stunning Ex-Wife Chapter 2242 You Are Not An Invalid!
“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
