Love Mission: Pursuing My Stunning Ex-Wife Chapter 436 Gamble
Aalto did not find anything strange with the sudden appearance of someone else beside him, nor did he check out who the person was. This was a recreational place. Plenty of people were willing to watch something fun to be entertained. Clearly, Aalto just treated Ivanka as someone who was here for some entertainment. Ivanka stood beside him in silence.Aalto seemed to be in high spirits. However, he did not win anything over the next eight rounds. The number of coins he had left was also only enough for him to play one last round. At the sight of Aalto’s stormy expression, Ivanka smiled. “Sir, should I help you play once? If I win, it’s your win. If I don’t, I’ll play for you another ten times. And I say I’m going to win. Do you believe me?”Ivanka’s confident and clear voice made Aalto turn around. When he saw Ivanka, he was amused. “You’re young, but you’re pretty arrogant, huh?”Ivanka smiled. “Want to let me try it?”Aalto shifted to the right and said in a relaxed man
Love Mission: Pursuing My Stunning Ex-Wife Chapter 437 This Is My Business Card
Aalto was stunned. But after some thinking, he found that she made sense. If she was that skilled, those coins were meaningless to her. He looked at her. “What sort of bet do you want?”Ivanka thought about it for a moment before she smiled. “If I win, you owe me five meals.”Aalto was flabbergasted.He gave her a puzzled look. “Are you going to ask for a fancy meal?”Ivanka smiled. “That’s right. I haven’t had dinner yet. Do you have time for a meal later?”At that moment, Aalto finally observed Ivanka properly. Something was off about Ivanka. She had approached him with a goal in mind. “Girl, why are you here?”Ivanka smiled. “Sir, I just want you to treat me to five meals. Are you scared?”Based on what she understood of Aalto, he was easily provoked. Just as she expected, Aalto scoffed. “What a joke! Why should I be scared?”Ivanka smiled. “Good, then. If I lose, what do you want me to do?”Aalto narrowed his eyes. “If you lose, tell me why you approached me.”Ivank
Love Mission: Pursuing My Stunning Ex-Wife Chapter 438 Are You Going To Die If You Don’t Talk?
Aalto instinctively looked down. When he saw the name on the business card, he was stunned. He looked at Ivanka. “You’re Ivanka Lane?!”Ivanka smiled. “The one and only.”“You’re the elite lawyer, Ivanka Lane?”Aalto regarded Ivanka with even more surprise. Knowing who she was now, Aalto grew certain that Ivanka had not lied. He did know that he resembled Ivanka’s father. “Since you came to me, then you should be here for that business cooperation.” Aalto exposed her goal. Ivanka smiled. “Sir, let’s eat first. We can talk about the business cooperation later.”Aalto did not know what Ivanka was planning, but he did pity her for losing her father at such a young age, so he nodded. “Alright. I’m going back to work now. I’ll call you once I clock off work.”“Alright. Thank you, Sir.” Ivanka looked grateful. However, when she looked at him, Ivanka felt her mind wander. She did not even know how she managed to stop herself from calling Aalto her father just now. At that m
Love Mission: Pursuing My Stunning Ex-Wife Chapter 439 The Most Beautiful Bride In The World
Michael was losing his cool again. He became increasingly frustrated and inhaled sharply to school his emotions, but he was failing. As he worked, his mind kept wandering. Bam!Michael slammed his fist against the table. The meeting room instantly fell silent, and the person who had been reporting his department’s progress turned pale. His hands trembled. Documents scattered all over the table. The sound of the papers falling on the table also made Michael realize that he was in a meeting. The person doing the report was close to tears. His legs trembled so badly that he lost his footing. The meeting room had a ghastly, frigid atmosphere, and he was about to faint because of it. Michael scowled and said coldly, “Continue.”The person doing the report trembled. Continue?!Wasn’t Michael displeased with what he said?With his face pale with fright, he said with a quivering voice, “I’m… already done.”Michael’s scowl deepened. After a brief pause, he said, “Repeat it.”
Love Mission: Pursuing My Stunning Ex-Wife Chapter 440 She Should Not Have To Endure This Alone
Lyla saw that Chiara had an incoming call and smiled. “Look. He’s calling you.”Chiara blushed. She whined in embarrassment, “Mom…”Lyla immediately chuckled. “Alright, I’ll stop. Answer the phone. I’ll leave you two to it.”She stood up with a smile and said nothing else. When the door swung shut, Chiara inhaled sharply and answered the phone nervously. Her nervousness was mainly due to her depleting contact with Michael and because Michael was no longer as patient as he was with her in the past. She did not dare act as willfully as before. “Mic? Aren’t you supposed to be at work?”It was a little past 4 p.m., and it was a little more than one hour before he clocked off work. “How’s your recovery?” Michael’s voice remained as cool as before. Chiara smiled. “I’m about fully recovered. You don’t have to worry about me.”She always spoke considerately, just like this. It was all so that she could not give Michael any pressure. However, when they met, she would show him t
Love Mission: Pursuing My Stunning Ex-Wife Chapter 441 Take Control of Lane’s Group
Another shareholder, Tom Ronson, hesitated for a moment and looked at everyone with a hint of resignation. He said, “Given the current situation, if Mr. Sadler refuses to budge, Ivanka is our only choice. I see no other options. Can you bear to give up such a lucrative business opportunity? Besides, we can only collaborate with Sadler’s Group on this project.Susan frowned and said disapprovingly, “Does it have to be Sadler’s Group? What about Barkworth’s Group? Couldn’t that be an option for us too?”Theodore was momentarily stunned before he turned to Susan, who looked at him with a serious expression. “Mr. Lane, our concern lies mainly in matters of interest. Currently, Ivanka clearly aims to take control of Lane’s Group. We cannot entrust the future of our group to a greenhorn like her.”Theodore nodded in agreement. “You’re right. Lane’s Group is in a delicate position now, and we are in a crucial period of expansion. We absolutely cannot afford any setbacks.”Susan nodded aga
Love Mission: Pursuing My Stunning Ex-Wife Chapter 442 Running Into This Wretched Woman Everywhere!
Theodore paused momentarily before nodding. “Okay, I’ll talk to Chiara about this. If Mr. Barkworth needs us to contribute some funds, how much do you think we should contribute?”A heated discussion quickly erupted among the group.At that moment, Ivanka was still in her office. She was waiting for Aalto’s call.It was getting close to the end of the day.After a few minutes, Aalto sent her a message.Aalto: Ms. Ivanka, this is Aalto. Please meet me here after work.Ivanka texted back and put her phone down.Rebecca gazed at Ivanka with admiration. “Iv, are you working on the final project now?”Ivanka nodded. “Yes.”Rebecca’s lips curved into a smile. “How are you feeling this time? Are you confident?”Ivanka chuckled. “I don’t know. Let’s see how luck plays out.”“Don’t be modest. I’m looking forward to you creating another miracle. Everyone in our office is putting in extra effort because of your impressive achievements. Thanks to your influence, our team’s performance h
Love Mission: Pursuing My Stunning Ex-Wife Chapter 443 Was This Truly An Unexpected Coincidence?
Chiara restrained her anger and smiled at Ivanka. “Iv, what are you doing here? And who is this?”Seeing Aalto’s face, Chiara was in a daze for a moment. It was as if her uncle had come back to life.Ivanka ignored the encounter. She simply turned to Aalto with a faint smile. “Sir, shall we go inside?”Aalto did not want to get involved in Ivanka’s personal affairs and simply nodded in agreement.The smile on Chiara’s face stiffened for a moment, but in the next instant, she could not help but sneer. Ivanka ignoring her was perfect. That would let Michael see how rude she really was.However, just as they took their first step, Michael suddenly spoke, “Mr. Aalto.”Chiara’s expression subtly changed. He...Aalto paused and turned to look at the person who spoke.“Mr. Barkworth, is there something you need?”Michael addressing Aalto as “Mr. Aalto” did not impose any pressure on Aalto.Aalto was a principled, headstrong man. Michael had previously gone to great lengths to recrui

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
