Love Mission: Pursuing My Stunning Ex-Wife Chapter 406 We Have Nothing More To Discuss
Naila halted and turned to glance at Ivanka, who was sitting next to her with a mask. Her eyes held a scrutinizing gaze.Ivanka slowly removed her mask and revealed a strikingly beautiful and unforgettable face.Naila’s gaze carried a hint of surprise. In the next second, she smiled and said, “Ms. Ivanka? What a coincidence.”Ivanka put her mask back on and said with a smile, “Is it? I came specifically for you, Ms. Naila.”Naila observed her. She said nothing, nor did she rush to leave.Ivanka smiled. “How about we talk in the private room?”Naila slowly removed her sunglasses. Her beautiful eyes carried a hint of indifference. “What is there for us to talk about?”Ivanka’s lips curled into a smile. “Ms. Naila, how would you know if my proposal is truly bad without a chat? Just take a look at it. If you don’t like it, you can turn around and leave.”After saying that, she opened her proposal and handed it to Naila.Naila simply glanced at it without taking it. However, after
Love Mission: Pursuing My Stunning Ex-Wife Chapter 407 Take That As A Compliment For Lane’s Group
Ivanka gazed at Naila with a faint smile. Seeing the anger in her eyes, she calmly remarked, “Business is all about making deals. Don’t you think so, Ms. Naila?”Naila frowned and stared at Ivanka.Meanwhile, two individuals were standing around the corner, one behind the other. The man standing in front pursed his lips and glanced sideways. Ivanka was looking at the woman next to her in a way that told him she was effortlessly handling the situation.He frowned. Annoyance grew in his eyes.The man behind him kept checking his watch. Eventually, he resignedly said, “Mr. Barkworth, we’re getting late for the meeting.”Michael’s frown deepened.In the end, he wordlessly adjusted his tie and headed outside.As Ivanka looked up, she caught sight of Michael, who was exuding an air of indifference and nobility. Her gaze carried a hint of surprise.She thought. “What is he doing here?”Following Ivanka’s line of sight, Naila glanced over but quickly averted her gaze.Unperturbed, Iv
Love Mission: Pursuing My Stunning Ex-Wife Chapter 408 Which ‘Her’ Was He Asking About?
Since they had not officially collaborated yet, Ivanka naturally refrained from divulging too much. It would suffice for the plan to remain unknown to outsiders and be safe from plagiarism.The plan needed to maintain a level of secrecy and potential for development.Now, it was time to meet that person.When she was about to leave, Ivanka decided to phone Suki.“Hello, Iris. You finally thought of me, huh?”Ivanka guiltily apologized. “Sorry, Suki. It’s been a busy couple of days.”“Come on, I was just teasing you. What do you need?”“How much have you learned about the last incident?”“Oh, this woman is excellent at hiding her tracks. For now, I couldn’t find anything useful. Your attacker has severed ties with his father, and his father left the Lane family several years ago. There’s a definite connection, but I can’t pin down the details.”Suki paused, then exclaimed, “I’ve been thinking about something.”“What is it?”Ivanka walked outside while holding her phone. She r
Love Mission: Pursuing My Stunning Ex-Wife Chapter 409 He Lost Patience Already?
Just as Evan was contemplating that, he noticed Michael’s expression darken further.Evan was speechless.Was Michael asking about Ivanka?Just as Evan was hesitating on his answer, Michael spoke in a deep voice. “Go on.”Evan subconsciously sighed in relief and continued, “The leads are the same as last time, all cut off. This might have nothing to do with Ms. Chiara, or she might have managed to erase any traces completely.”“What about that man?”Michael was referring to the man who had pushed Ivanka.“He ran away. We’re still tracking him down. His father is in their hometown, but...”“Continue investigating through his father.”Evan paused for a moment, then nodded, “Okay, I’ve already sent someone to inquire.”Michael remained silent.However, he gave no indication for Evan to leave.Evan sensed that Michael might want to know the information about Ivanka. After a moment’s hesitation, he continued reporting.“Ms. Ivanka went to see Ms. Chiara yesterday to propose a c
Love Mission: Pursuing My Stunning Ex-Wife Chapter 410 Could Not Get Any Useful Information
Michael frowned again. The office air seemed colder than before.The atmosphere permeated through the phone and sent a shiver down Chiara’s spine.She turned a little pale. After taking a breath, she said softly, “I’ve been suspended from work.”Michael’s gaze flickered thoughtfully.However, in the next instant, he feigned ignorance. He attempted a softer tone. “What happened?”Chiara frowned. She had been against calling Michael, but her mother had been very insistent. She said this would fuel Michael’s disdain for Ivanka and pave the way for their perfect plan. But could this work?Chiara gritted her teeth. At this point, she had no choice but to continue speaking.“It involves some company secrets, so I can’t say. I just never expected Iv to misunderstand me. Mic, it seems like we’re really drifting apart. Iv has started threatening and mocking me. What should I do to mend things with her?”At this moment, Chiara played her role well. She did not come off as someone sowing
Love Mission: Pursuing My Stunning Ex-Wife Chapter 411 Her Words Were Cryptic
“Don’t worry too much about it. Besides, there’s no need to maintain any relationship with her. It’s unnecessary.”Chiara was speechless.She thought Mic would say something harsher about Ivanka, but was this all?“Mic, I…”“I have some matters to attend to here. I’ll visit you when I have time. Go home and take care of yourself.”Chiara parted her lips. She wanted to say something, but sensing Michael’s impatience, she chose to stop there. “All right, you go ahead. Make sure to get some rest. Don’t overexert yourself, Mic.”“Okay.”Michael’s voice was magnetic, but upon closer listening, a hint of impatience could be discerned.Chiara’s expression changed slightly. She could only say, “Well, then, I’ll hang up.”“Okay.”Chiara took a deep breath and reluctantly ended the call.The next moment, she looked furiously at Lyla beside her. “See, I told you I shouldn’t call him! Look what happened! What are you and Dad trying to achieve?”Her mother had been advising her on what
Love Mission: Pursuing My Stunning Ex-Wife Chapter 412 Don’t Make Me Use Force
Ivanka immediately declined the call and sent a message on WhatsApp.Ivanka: I’m outside. It’s too noisy to talk. What’s up?Sandy: Oh, really? Where are you? I heard your cousin got suspended from work.Ivanka: Yes, it’s thanks to your blessing. I owe you one. I’ll make you your favorite braised beef brisket when I have time.Sandy: Hahaha! You’re the best, bestie! Where are you now? Why can’t you talk on the phone?Ivanka: I’m in a bar.Sandy: No way! Not cool, bestie! You went to a bar without me! Who did you go with?Ivanka: Just myself. I came here to handle something today. I’ll come with you next time.Sandy: Just you alone? Where are you? I’ll come and find you. If you’re handling something, I should at least be there with you. You can’t be alone!Ivanka: It’s okay. I’ll be fine.Sandy insisted several times, but Ivanka assured her that she would be fine. Unable to persuade her, Sandy could only remind Ivanka to be careful.Ivanka slowly put down her phone. She was w
Love Mission: Pursuing My Stunning Ex-Wife Chapter 413 Grab The Hilt Of The Dagger
The woman froze. She gritted her teeth and wanted to deliver an insult. But the moment she met his icy gaze, she dared not say another word. Holding back her anger, she left.The people around them overheard their conversation. They knew that Elio was unapproachable, so they left him alone.But those who sat further away merely assumed that Elio simply did not like that woman, so more women approached and hit on him.As a result, they faced the same treatment as the first woman did.At this point, some women seemed to grow competitive and excited to take up the challenge. One after another, they started going over to test the waters.In the end, Elio was annoyed.He produced a dagger out of nowhere and stabbed the table with it.In that instant, no one dared approach him.Everyone realized that he was short-tempered and uninterested in women.Some people could not help sneering in secret.In a corner, two men with beer bellies drank together and said with mockery.“Women the

Love Mission: Pursuing My Stunning Ex-Wife Chapter 1710 Is He Dead Yet?
Ivanka frowned deeply. Michael was in a horrible state. He had been poisoned and suffered gunshots. He had a strong tolerance to medicine and pain. But it was his mental condition that caused him to fall into this state. Not being fully recovered also added to the burden. Ivanka gave him a white pill which she had formulated by herself. After that, she had the security guard carry Michael into her car. Then, she sent him to the hospital. They arrived at the emergency department. Xavier had finished attending to his patients. When he walked out of his office, he saw Michael being carried into the hospital. He then saw Ivanka beside Michael. Xavier frowned. His expression became tense, and he asked solemnly, “What’s happened to him?” “He’s weak and had previously been poisoned. Since you’re around, you can look after him.” Ivanka summarized Michael’s condition. After hearing Ivanka’s brief explanation, Xavier gave Michael a checklist and put him on a drip. After that,
Love Mission: Pursuing My Stunning Ex-Wife Chapter 1709 Rest In Bed
Since Jonah had come to this and Ivanka was not an ungrateful person, she nodded and gave her word. “Jonah, I’ll give this my all. Don’t worry. As long as it’s within my ability, I’ll help you.” Jonah had to be bound to the wheelchair at the moment. Since Ivanka had shared a similar experience when she took over Lane’s Group back then, she naturally figured out how wolfish and greedy his adversaries would be. Jonah was injured because of her. She swore to give her all to save him from whatever crisis he was facing. Jonah took advantage of this and asked, “What time are you coming tomorrow? I’ll have my assistant get ready.” Ivanka thought for a moment. “Tomorrow afternoon.” She needed to manage her company affairs during the first half of the day. Jonah was content upon hearing her answer. “Good. I’ll wait for you tomorrow.” “Okay.” Ivanka nodded before hanging up. When she returned to her office, she did not expect to see Michael sitting on the couch. She nearly jum
Love Mission: Pursuing My Stunning Ex-Wife Chapter 1708 I Need Your Help
There was only one possibility. Ivanka was calling somebody else. Michael wondered who could strike up such a long conversation with her. Sandy and Ivan had returned to the country. Ivanka’s besties were around her. Even if Ivanka deliberately approached Chiara, she could not possibly have so much to chat with Chiara. If Ivanka’s phone call was business related, there was no need to chat this long. Michael eliminated the possible reasons one by one. In the end, he thought of Jonah. Michael’s expression instantly turned as dark as thunderclouds. His gaze was dull and cold. Evan noticed it. He also saw the call record on Michael’s phone. Evan quickly persuaded Michael, “Mr. Barkworth, Ms. Lane could be tied up with her work, so she couldn’t answer your call. We could go to her workplace now.” Michael said nothing. He gave a cold glance at Evan. Evan got a shock. The next second, Michael turned around and left his office. Looking at Michael’s fading silhouette, Evan wi
Love Mission: Pursuing My Stunning Ex-Wife Chapter 1707 Do You Feel Safe Letting Others Treat Me?
It was why Ivanka still came for Jonah in spite of her unpleasant experience with Margaret in the hospital last time. Jonah had been injured because of Ivanka. She came for him only. The other people did not matter to her. Jonah’s heart sank upon hearing her words. His expression tensed up. He could imagine the indifferent look on Ivanka’s face right at that moment. She had that expression on her face simply because he was never really important to her. Jonah was upset precisely because of her indifference to him. He wanted to say something to her but did not know how to begin. He was also not in the position to say that. It did not take long before Ivanka’s gentle but rather indifferent voice rang in his ears, “Jonah, don’t worry. I’ll treat your legs until they recover. Don’t run into any conflicts with your mom because of me.” Her words pulled Jonah’s wandering mind back into the present moment. He felt a heavy weight on his heart. “Iv, I trust you. You don’t need to
Love Mission: Pursuing My Stunning Ex-Wife Chapter 1706 Different From Others
Margaret became frustrated and grabbed Ivanka. She could not understand why Ivanka was fine while Jonah ended up in such a bad situation after the accident.Then, Jonah defended Ivanka. There was also all the talk about Ivanka’s treatment. Margaret was curious to see what kind of miracle medicine Ivanka could develop.In the end, Ivanka’s treatment did not work. Moreover, her relationship with Jonah, which had finally started to improve, was once again ruined because of Ivanka.Jonah scoffed. “Mom, I’m not an eight-year-old anymore. You’re saying all this because you want me to go along with your plans for an arranged date, right?”Margaret had not expected Jonah to guess her thoughts. She was about to insist on her point when Jonah spoke first. With a mocking smile, he said sarcastically, “Do you think anyone would date someone like me?”He had a point. But Laura might be one such person.However, Margaret did not like her. She would do anything to keep Laura from becoming her d
Love Mission: Pursuing My Stunning Ex-Wife Chapter 1705 Let Her Go
“That’s because you want him to fall in love with you!” Margaret snapped.Ivanka chuckled softly. Her tone was edged with sarcasm. “Love? Does it really matter that much?”Margaret felt humiliated and furious. She pointed a finger at Ivanka’s face with a hostile expression. “If it doesn’t matter, why are you doing all this? Stop pretending, Ivanka!”Ivanka let out a bitter laugh. “Pretending? What am I pretending for? Is being divorced a crime? Margaret, you’re a woman too. How would you feel if someone accused you like this?”She hoped Margaret would take a moment to reflect. After all, she was Jonah’s mother, and Ivanka did not want their conflict to escalate.But Margaret was unmoved. Her glare turned colder, sharper, and filled with hatred.“You think I’ll just let this go?” Margaret said sharply. “If it weren’t for you, Jonah wouldn’t be in this mess! I meant every word I said, and nothing will change that.”To her, Ivanka was nothing more than someone scheming to use Jonah
Love Mission: Pursuing My Stunning Ex-Wife Chapter 1704 Margaret’s Skepticism
“Ivanka,” Margaret took a deep breath while trying to compose herself. When she looked at Ivanka again, her expression was calm. She said, “I don’t know how deep Jonah’s feelings for you run. What I fear most is that once he becomes fixated on you, that’s it. When he falls for someone, his heart won’t make room for anyone else. In that way, he’s just like his father.”Ivanka’s gaze wavered. She bit her lip and was unsure of what to say.“I beg you, don’t hurt Jonah anymore!” Margaret’s voice carried a note of desperation.Ivanka’s expression turned extremely complicated.There was a time when Jonah came to her only to use her. Back then, they were both using each other. It made things simple.But later, Jonah unexpectedly started talking about marriage. Perhaps it was to provoke Michael, or perhaps he simply wanted to keep her close because she was useful to him.At some point, though, it seemed Jonah had become serious about her. She could not pinpoint when it happened. Perhaps
Love Mission: Pursuing My Stunning Ex-Wife Chapter 1703 Greatest Injustice
Jonah frowned in clear disagreement, but he stayed silent. Ivanka’s confident smile reassured him and made him trust her.Eventually, he let go of her wrist.Ivanka noticed Margaret putting on her shoes. She quickly followed, stepping outside just as Margaret was about to get into her car“Margaret,” she called out.Margaret frowned slightly and stood still.Since Jonah had not come out with Ivanka, she decided she could spare a moment to speak with her.She turned and looked at Ivanka coldly.Ivanka softened her tone. “Let’s take a walk.”Margaret did not respond, but her silence was enough of an agreement.They walked slowly around the edge of the mansion. The surrounding area was all part of the Sadler family estate.Margaret suppressed her anger and glanced at Ivanka before speaking in a composed tone, “Alright. What do you want to say?”Ivanka met her gaze briefly before looking ahead and said, “Do you know what will happen if Jonah’s coughing continues?”Margaret’s he
Love Mission: Pursuing My Stunning Ex-Wife Chapter 1702 All Because Of Ivanka!
Margaret glared at Ivanka and scoffed, “If there’s an issue, I’ll get another doctor to handle it. It’ll be anyone but you, Ivanka. Haven’t I made myself clear enough? I’ve told you this before.”She hated how Ivanka ignored her warnings and kept coming back to visit Jonah time and again. What if Jonah got too close to her and ended up ruining his reputation? If Jonah had not been here, Margaret would have been even harsher.Ivanka frowned as she met Margaret’s sharp gaze. “I’ve never tried to get close to Jonah like that. We’re just friends. I know I’m not good enough for him, so I’ve never even thought about it.”“You might not have, but he has!” Margaret snapped, raising her voice.“Mom!” Jonah’s expression darkened.Jonah was usually calm and polite. This was the first time Ivanka saw him looking so upset and was about to lose his temper.Ivanka’s eyes flickered with hesitation. She was unsure of what to say.Explaining Jonah’s coughing would do no good. Margaret would not
