Love Mission: Pursuing My Stunning Ex-Wife Chapter 41 Mic, I Know You’re Very Angry
Many guests were in the living room.But even so, Michael only needed to sweep a glance across the crowd to spot the man and woman in the champagne section chatting and laughing happily.He instantly released a murderous aura. Chiara noticed that something was wrong and followed his gaze. She was surprised by what she saw.She could not help but exclaim, “Oh lord, why is Iv together with Jonah?”Chiara was puzzled. Was Ivanka really trying to get a divorce. Was it not an act to try making Michael angry? Otherwise, Ivanka would not choose to appear with Michael’s opponent at such a publicized a banquet.This was an extreme form of insult to Michael, so he would not put up with it.Michael returned to his senses, but he continued to shoot daggers with his gaze.Ivanka and Jonah seemed to sense something and looked toward the door at the same time.Ivanka was stunned for a moment, before she smiled the next second. Then, she cast her indifferent gaze at Chiara.Ivanka could not
Love Mission: Pursuing My Stunning Ex-Wife Chapter 42 She Is Indeed Beautiful!
Michael did not even spare Chiara a glance.Chiara sneered while looking at Ivanka and Jonah chatting happily. It had been three years since she had planned this, and it was time for her to execute the final step.Ivanka had fallen into the trap on her own, so she could not blame Chiara for not being merciful.It was Mr. Morris’s birthday, but the four individuals became the highlight of the night.Of course, everyone was watching with bated breath to see Michael and Jonah’s fight for the wife.It was going to be an interesting show.Michael walked to Ivanka with gloomy eyes and a cold expression under everyone’s attention. Ivanka looked up and happened to see the two walking over. She smiled. “Ah, the both of you are here.”Her calm voice did not reveal much emotion. Jonah also broke into a smile. “Mr. Barkworth, it’s rare to see you attending a banquet with someone other than Iv.”Iv?Michael’s expression darkened.He sneered. “This is also my first time seeing you attend
Love Mission: Pursuing My Stunning Ex-Wife Chapter 43 There’s No More Turning Back
Everyone in the world knew that Jonah and Michael were rivals.Ivanka smiled. “You can call me Ms. Lane now.”Mr. Smith’s chubby smile stiffened up. He seemed to come to a realization and was shocked. “Mrs… No, Ms. Lane, you…”Jonah smiled. “Yes, they’re divorced.”Mr. Smith was extremely shocked.He thought. “Weren’t they deeply in love with each other? Why did they suddenly get a divorce?”When he was about to ask another question, Jonah smiled and said, “I still need to take care of some other matters, so please do excuse me.”A trace of disappointment flashed across Mr. Smith’s eyes. Then, Ivanka left with Jonah.Jonah looked at Ivanka with a smile. “Mr. Smith is a blabbermouth. Telling him alone would be enough.”Ivanka raised her eyebrows and glanced at Jonah. “Mr. Sadler, how did you know I was planning to spread this news today?”Jonah smiled. “Because we’re soul mates.”Ivanka was at a loss for words.After thinking about it, the pieces all fell into place. If she
Love Mission: Pursuing My Stunning Ex-Wife Chapter 44 How Is It? Are You All Surprised?
Ivanka pursed her lips and said nothing.Jonah smiled. “Don’t be afraid. If you’re worried, I’ll go up the stage with you.”Ivanka slowly took a deep breath. Jonah was right. At this point, there was no turning back.She thought. “Well, forget it. If Michael is planning to be merciless, I’ll be merciless too.”At that moment, Adrian was smiling on the stage. “At gatherings like this, people will usually discuss some cooperation in private. I’ve prepared a ‘convenience car’ for you all. Here’s a wall I prepared.A wall?Everyone was confused. They saw Adrian waving his hand, and two slender, tall women came out with a cardboard wall.There were a lot of white stickers neatly pasted on it to block the words inside.Adrian smiled. “I have specially prepared this. Everyone’s name is on it.”Everyone was shocked.They were all curious to know what Adrian’s plan was.Ivanka pursed her lips. She knew that her name was among them.“For the sake of fairness, both men’s and women’s n
Love Mission: Pursuing My Stunning Ex-Wife Chapter 45 Why Did I Meet This Demon Everywhere
The people’s hearts were racing out of nervousness. They had been thinking about what to say if they were chosen. They were all scared of being the first person.Ivanka did not think much about it. She knew that Jonah would not let her be the first pick.She took a deep breath and said softly, “I need to use the restroom.”Jonah looked at her with deep eyes and said softly, “Okay. Iv, don’t get stage fright.”He had an underlying meaning when he told her not to get stage fright. They were all people of high social status. They could keep calm and would not get stage fright.After all, they were all sociable and were used to attending this kind of occasion.However, he still told her not to get stage fright. In truth, he was telling her not to be afraid of Michael.Ivanka nodded. Then, she turned and walked to the restroom.Chiara saw Ivanka leaving and hurriedly said to Michael, “Mic, I need to use the restroom.”Michael nodded lightly and continued to drink.Ivanka was a lit
Love Mission: Pursuing My Stunning Ex-Wife Chapter 46 Ivanka Is the Prize!
Michael looked at Ivanka coldly. “Are you satisfied after making a fuss?”“Am I satisfied?” Ivanka chuckled. “You’re the one who made a fuss.”In the past, she devoted herself to being Mrs. Barkworth and made the Barkworth family the focus of her attention. She would never do anything that would embarrass the Barkworth family. Many people praise her for being a perfect wife and daughter-in-law. However, Michael never spared her a glance and fooled about with Chiara. Now that they were getting married, she had become a laughingstock. In spite of all that, Michael was claiming that she was making a fuss.Michael’s thin lips pursed when he saw the mockery in Ivanka’s eyes intensifying. “If you leave the banquet now, this matter ends here.”Ivanka looked at him indifferently. “Will you go to the City Hall with me tomorrow to collect the divorce certificate, then?”Michael immediately sneered. “Ivanka, quit dreaming and stop testing me. I’ll divorce you sooner or later.”When Chiara
Love Mission: Pursuing My Stunning Ex-Wife Chapter 47 You Can Call Me Ms. Lane
Chiara was just as surprised. What was Ivanka going to do on stage?Michael would not have planned this, so only Jonah could have set this up. What were they planning?Chiara was genuinely curious. Jonah would never help Michael and Ivanka to reconcile. If Ivanka and Jonah got together, she would reject Michael and she would not be together with him anymore. After that…Chiara eagerly waited. She hoped that Ivanka could continue being proud and never meet Michael anymore!Jonah turned to look at Ivanka with a smile. “Should I accompany you?”“I’m good.”Ivanka was calm and at peace with herself.Jonah and Michael became everyone’s center of attention. Ivanka stood beside Jonah, and everyone could see her at a glance. They stared at Ivanka as she got up on the stage.Mr. Morris sat in the head seat and looked over. He immediately frowned. “Who did this?”Adrian’s expression darkened. “I’ll ask someone to investigate.”The Morris family would never do something that would offen
Love Mission: Pursuing My Stunning Ex-Wife Chapter 48 Is This Compensation?
Everyone was shocked.She was so bold!In other words, she was announcing to them that she had broken up with Michael!Otherwise, why else would she no longer be Mrs. Barkworth?She had become single again!Jonah had been watching Ivanka. At that very moment, he suddenly smiled, and a hint of joy shone in his dark eyes.He turned to look at Michael. Michael had a gloomy expression but otherwise did not react much.He had probably brought Chiara over today to put on a show.However, Ivanka’s actions had made his show in vain. Everyone knew their relationship had fallen apart, and Barkworth Group became the laughingstock.Michael sensed Jonah’s gaze and looked at him. They were not sitting at the same table. Many people were between them, but that did nothing to stop them from shooting murderous gazes at each other.Jonah smiled and raised his glass. Although it was champagne, he could still drink a toast to him.Michael stopped looking at him. Instead, he got up and walked ou

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

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

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
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
