Samuel chuckled and said casually, “Theodore, tomorrow is Sunday. Since it’s a holiday, shall we have a family lunch together?”

Although surprised, Theodore agreed.

“Great. Let’s gather together at noon tomorrow.”

Samuel smiled contentedly and said, “Okay. My family is going with me. You and your family should come too. Don’t leave out any of them.”

Theodore naturally went along with Samuel. Nonetheless, in his heart, Theodore was confused and sensed something off. He agreed to Samuel with a smile. After chatting for a while, they hung up.

Theodore frowned. “Something doesn’t feel right.”

Chiara’s expression turned as pale as a ghost. “Are they going to call off the marriage…?”

Theodore’s expression darkened. Meanwhile, Lyla frowned deeply.

Chiara muttered to herself without looking at her parents. “It’s over… It’s over!”

Theodore said darkly, “Why are you so panicky? The Barkworth family needs our help. Besides, they are the ones who have taken the initiative to have

    After knowing Michael would terminate his engagement with Chiara, Rosie could finally accept reality. She was content. If one had not yet faced the worst, one might think their current problems are the worst. After going through all this, they realized their experience was not that bad, after all, and it was all within an acceptable range. It was such a complicated feeling. At that moment, the nine of them sat around the table. If this was the past, Samuel and his group would certainly have Michael and Chiara sat together. Today, the two sat very far apart. On top of that, Michael looked frigid. He did not give Chiara a glance throughout the gathering. Chiara felt indescribable sorrow and fear. Nonetheless, she ran out of solutions. She did not know what to do. The bad feeling within her heart only grew stronger. Theodore inhaled deeply. He grinned as he turned to Samuel and said respectfully, “Master Barkworth, why do you want to have a lunch gathering all of a sudden? Do

    Chiara thought. “He’s going to talk about something unpleasant before the dishes are even served! How heartless he is!” Lyla’s expression soured. Only fools would not understand what Samuel had meant by that. Theodore’s smile faded. Apparently, they knew what was going on. Mindy saw everything. She looked down as she felt embarrassed to stare at them. Jay thought things would be simpler if Theodore and his family knew what happened. Samuel cleared his throat and said with a weary sigh, “I feel ashamed to speak about this, but this issue is reciprocal. Could you get what I meant?” Theodore, Lyla and Chiara looked stunned. They did not understand what Samuel said. The trio stared at him blankly in unison. Samuel was speechless. He thought. “Why are you three still acting dumb at this moment? What’s the point of acting tough when your deeds are already exposed? Please keep some respect and dignity to yourself, will you?” Samuel did not want to put them down, so he said

    Chiara was stunned. She felt as if lightning had struck her. Although she had come with a bad feeling, she had been hopeful. However, things had changed.They had spoken to her face. The Barkworth family wanted to cut ties with her! She would become a laughing stock! “Aunt Mindy, why is it so? Do you truly believe everything the treacherous people have said to you? I hadn’t done anything!” Chiara was cautious with her words. She kept giving explanations and denying everything. Nonetheless, she did not mention what she had been denying. Samuel heaved a sigh and said solemnly, “We’re the ones who proposed to call off the marriage. If you have any grievances, tell us, and we will partially compensate you.” “Compensation, huh?” Theodore scoffed at them. “Although we’re not as reputable as your family, we are equally well-known. You dare abandon my daughter all of a sudden and still think it’s okay to brush off the matter just by compensating us?!” Meanwhile, Lyla could no

  • Love Mission: Pursuing My Stunning Ex-Wife   Chapter 537 Strong Attitude

    Theodore and his family’s expressions changed slightly. They knew the Barkworth family would not give up calling off Michael and Chiara’s marriage. Theodore smirked. “You can call off their marriage if you want to. Why such arrogance?” Michael indifferently glanced at Theodore. Theodore ignored him. He turned to Samuel and said in a deep voice, “Master Barkworth, since you’ve made up your mind, I regret to say that we are not destined to be part of your family. It’s fine to call off their marriage. Likewise, we’ll terminate all of our collaborations too.” Theodore had left them no room for negotiation. Lyla changed her attitude. Although the Barkworth family was great, it was equally important to collaborate with the Lane family. The Lane family could make their projects even more profitable, so she believed the Barkworth family would not easily give up on them. Lyla believed the Barkworth family would beg to make peace with them. When that happened, she wondered if the Barkw

    Who would have an appetite in this situation? The attendee headed out and closed the door. Samuel said lightly, “Let’s eat. After all, we still need to finish the food before breaking up.” Theodore was furious. Who would have an appetite in this situation? Theodore had explicitly laid out everything before the Barkworth family. He had even threatened them. At that moment, he was speechless. He could not possibly take back his words. Besides, Samuel had no qualms with Theodore terminating their collaborations. The Barkworth family even took the initiative to pay liquidated damages as compensation, which was normal to have to pay for any breach of contract. They had blocked all of Theodore’s paths! Theodore thought. “So you think you guys are amazing, huh?!” He had no intention of taking his cutlery. It would be all too humiliating to eat with the Barkworth family. They had abandoned Chiara. The Lane family was about to become a laughing stock in the town. How could t

    After some time, she finally snapped back to her senses. After realizing he had walked away, she chased after Michael in a panic. “Mic!” she called out in agony.Michael’s grim expression made Chiara’s body tremble. But she could not care less and ran to stop in front of him. “Why won’t you believe me? Mic, I really didn’t do it!”Michael stopped walking. He stared at her and coldly said, “I’m giving you one last chance. Get out of my way.”His cold voice struck through her heart like a jagged dagger of ice covered in thorns.Chiara gasped in pain and burst into tears. It would have worked in the past. The expression on her face would make him feel bad even if he did not feel sorry for her.But now, he was indifferent. Chiara was having trouble breathing at that point, and her brain had stopped working. Chiara watched the man walk past her. She struggled to turn to look at him before all strength suddenly left her body. Her surroundings blurred, and her eyelids grew heavier

    Ivanka sat on the living room sofa. She could not help but chuckle at Sandy. “What’s wrong? Are you looking for a boyfriend?”“Yeah. I am!” Sandy pouted. “But it’ll be a hassle finding a boyfriend who’s not in our friend group. It’s our fault for having only one guy in our small friend group. We should’ve gathered more guys that time, and then I could pick a boyfriend among them. That way, we can still have gatherings together in the future, and it would be so much fun!”Ivanka chuckled and looked at Sandy with fond resignation. “Having a childhood sweetheart is nice. But with your personality, you would think that you couldn’t experience the romance of getting to know someone new this way.” After all, Sandy craved novelty. Sandy laughed as she brushed her short hair, and lazily said, “You know me so well, Bestie!”“Of course, I do.” Ivanka could not contain her smile. She put down the notebook in her hand and asked, “Do you mind if I invite someone over tonight?”“Who?”“Some

    Ivanka turned to face her and asked, “What happened?”“It’s the Cullen family!” That was all Sandy said as she continued to scroll through her phone. At that moment, all her attention was on her phone. The Cullen family? Ivanka was a little confused.She recalled the time she and Michael went to Springvale for a banquet, during which they had met Tanya Cullen and even talked to her. At first glance, the woman appeared very purposeful, but she also exuded nobility. Although she distanced herself from most people, she did not go too far in doing so.But of course, that was only Ivanka’s first impression of Tanya that day.“Oh my god! An official announcement has been made!” Sandy exclaimed after reading another tweet. After saying that, Sandy was already walking over to Ivanka’s side and handed her the phone. “Look! The whole Cullen family is going to move here!”Ivanka was a little surprised. “They are doing fine over there. Why move here suddenly?”“They still have a company

    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,

    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

    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

    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

    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

    “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

    “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

    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

    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
