Chapter 447 Her Trump Card Was Not Effective Anymore

Author: Deer
The next moment, Michael suddenly snapped out of his thoughts. His expression turned even grimmer.

What was he thinking just now?

Why did he keep thinking about Ivanka?

“Mic...”

Concerned, Chiara looked at him. “Are you feeling unwell? Should we go back?”

Michael would see Ivanka again later. He was going to discuss something with Aalto. She did not want to give them any more opportunities to spend time together. She was getting scared.

Michael restrained his emotions and looked at her indifferently. “Eat up. These are your favorite dishes.”

Chiara was speechless.

Even if the dishes were her favorites, she needed to be in a good mood to enjoy them. Why was he being like this?

He was thinking about another woman while they were on a date. Who could stand that?

After a pause, she sighed and said, “Mic, something has been off with you recently. Is it because I…”

She bit her lip, lowered her head slightly, and acted nervously flustered.

She acted like she could not finish her s

    Michael merely nodded lightly, rose, and headed for the door.Chiara followed him immediately.Regardless of how resentful she felt, she still wanted to stay by his side for her ease of mind.They barely touched the food they had ordered.Because of Ivanka, Michael lost his appetite, and Chiara lost hers because of Michael.Soon, the two of them arrived at Aalto’s private dining room.However, Michael did not see Ivanka there.Chiara was surprised as well. She asked with confusion, “Mr. Aalto, my cousin… has left?”“Yeah,” Aalto answered casually.There was a slight, imperceivable furrow in Michael’s brows.Ivanka had already left. Chiara was in a terrible mood. She no longer wanted to stay. She immediately said to Michael, “If that’s the case, Mic, I shall head back too.”“Sure.” Michael did not even bother glancing at her.Chiara inhaled slightly and left.The night wind seemed to be stronger than during the day. Her hair fluttered wildly in the wind. Chiara combed it wi

    Hanson’s voice was sorrowful.“Iv, are you going to say yes to him?”Ivanka was puzzled.“Hanson, are you drunk?”Hanson sounded quite different from his usual gentle and elegant self.“Iv, answer me. Do you… like Jonah?”Ivanka was startled. She neither liked Jonah nor planned to say yes to him.However…Seeing Hanson like this, Ivanka thought that she might have to lie.After a pause, she said hesitantly, “Yes.”Hanson’s heart throbbed with pain.When Hanson learned that Jonah was openly wooing Ivanka, he was rather upset. But he assumed that she was recently divorced and was still recovering from a broken heart. There was no way she would say yes to Jonah, so Hansan let it slide.But now, he watched Ivanka and Jonah interact and appear together before him again and again. He kept seeing them trending on Twitter, and everyone said that they were a match made in heaven. As Hanson witnessed all these, he started panicking.Presently, Ivanka had even agreed to work with Jon

    The man stared at her with a small grin. His starry eyes were dazzling in the dark of the night.Ivanka’s eyes flew open.But she could not be bothered with him at the moment, because a gasp sounded from her phone speaker.“Iv… You always know how to upset me. How could you shatter my heart?”Ivanka looked guilty. She inhaled deeply and said in a rush, “I have something else to attend to, so I’ll have to hang up. Don’t drink too much. Head home early and get some rest.”With that, she hung up.The other man’s grin only grew wider.“Iv, I heard everything.”Ivanka went pale a little. “Please don’t get the wrong idea. I-I just used you as an excuse to turn him down.”Jonah’s starry eyes looked gleeful. He took a step closer to Ivanka. “Oh, is that right?”Terrified, Ivanka quickly backed away and changed the topic. “Why are you here? Are you here for business?”Jonah chuckled and stared at Ivanka gently. “I knew someone liked me, so I rushed here to hear it myself.”Ivanka se

    Chiara blinked in disbelief. They had not eaten much during dinnertime. Now he was going to send her home?But it made sense. Had she not waited at the junction and suddenly intercepted him, they would have parted ways already. He would not even drive her home. She should not ask for too much.Chiara could only nod obediently. “Alright, but I have something to tell you. It’s about the company’s business.”Michael turned to her. She had not moved a step. He said flatly, “Are we going to talk here?”Chiara’s expression changed slightly. She snapped out of her reverie and sheepishly said, “Let’s… talk in the car.”Michael wordlessly walked on.Confused, Ivanka looked at Jonah. “Is this the show you are referring to?” But the two of them were already approaching the car. Ivanka and Jonah would not be able to see anything.Jonah smiled faintly. He spoke softly. “They are getting into Chiara’s car.”Ivanka blinked in astonishment. Jonah would not be able to install any bugs in Michae

    Michael had not heard it, but it did not mean that he was oblivious.As he read through the entire proposal, he could tell that it was Ivanka’s style. She had written it herself.At that moment, he was shocked and filled with disbelief.After Chiara told him everything, she finally sighed in relief.She looked at Michael carefully and said in a low voice, “I… I have no other way. The company executives think that Iv is inexperienced and unable to handle this project. But Mr. Sadler… Perhaps he likes her too much and intends to pursue her through their partnership. There is no way our company will let Iv ruin her reputation or get embroiled in scandals, so… considering the current situation, I want to ask you…”Chiara could not continue.Why would her father make her approach Michael with this matter?Why would he give her the proposal?When she was heading out, she had planned to leave for good. But her father’s assistant came to her and handed over this proposal along with his

    “So… everyone just left her be and let her handle the work herself. I didn’t expect her to be so impressive. She managed to make these plans work.”In spite of Chiara’s reluctance, she had no choice but to say it aloud at this point.Besides, it was an open secret. Michael would surely find out.Michael remained silent.Panicked, Chiara continued, “You can tell from the requirements on the contract that the executives were meant to put Ivanka at a disadvantage. They demanded Sadler’s Group to be the sole source of funding, and it wasn’t a small number either. Everyone thought it was impossible, but who would have thought that…”She could not continue.But she had said all these things on purpose, and it was all she could do.Now, she would see if Michael would accept this proposal and put someone more experienced in charge.Michael narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at Chiara. “So, you want me to take over the project and remove Ivanka. Then replace her with someone more exp

    “It’s up to you from now on, Iv. Both of us want you, but who will you choose?” The smile on Jonah’s lips was bewitching. There was even a hint of delight in his eyes, which she had not seen before. Ivanka had a faint smile on her face. “You already know the answer, Mr. Sadler.”Jonah laughed. “But I still want to hear more words of approval from you. Just like…”As he spoke, he suddenly leaned toward her and said in a gentle voice, “When you were on the phone with someone else just now.”Ivanka’s expression changed slightly, and she immediately backed away.She turned around. The lights in Chiara’s car had gone off. Michael had already driven off. Ivanka quickly said, “They left. I should be going too.”“I’ll drive you.”When Chiara’s car disappeared from view, Ivanka immediately opened the car door and said flatly, “That won’t be necessary. My car is right here.”With that, she got out of the car. Jonah did not stop her. As he watched her stride away quickly, he said in a so

    “What did you say to him? Why did you provoke him?”Ivanka opened her mouth to speak. But at that moment, surprisingly, she found herself tongue-tied.Sandy sensed something was wrong. She stepped forward and pulled Anna away. “Anna, calm down. What happened?”Ivanka closed her eyes regretfully. “It’s my fault.”Sandy was confused. “Iv?”Ignoring her, Ivanka anxiously turned to Hanson’s other friends and asked, “How’s he now?”One man sighed. “We were just drinking together and discussing our crushes. We noticed Hanson sipping alone in silence and being odd, so we dropped that topic. Out of the blue, he stood up and said he had to make a call.”Ivanka clenched her fists as she paled.Sandy’s gaze changed. Evidently, she guessed that Ivanka must have rejected Hanson. Otherwise, he would not be so devastated. He then went out all drunk and distraught... and got into an accident.“We figured he probably called you. After quite a while, he didn’t come back. When we went out lookin

    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.
