Author: Deer
“They have already posted it. There’s no way they will delete it! Leave it for now. I’m going to check on Chiara! Let’s stop talking about this!”

Lyla hurried.

But when she and Theodore returned to the ward, Chiara was already looking at her phone. Her face was as white as a sheet.

They, too, paled at the sight of her.

Tears suddenly streamed down Chiara’s face. She turned to look at her parents and smiled miserably. “So I wasn’t overthinking it. My instinct was right.”

Lyla felt her heart shattering into pieces. She quickly strode over and said anxiously, “Chiara, that isn’t true! It was Samuel. He suddenly changed his mind. I won’t let Michael call off your engagement! They won’t dare to. They can’t possibly do that!”

Chiara suddenly started laughing. “Why not? They are ready to pay liquidated damages. There’s no room for negotiation…”

At the moment, she was rather calm. There was no outrage or panic like a while ago. She looked like a fragile doll made of porcelain. A puff of

    The Barkworths broke her daughter’s heart. Lyla would never allow them to live in peace!With that, she hurried toward the door.Theodore grabbed her arm. “Didn’t you have an idea? You were saying the other day that…”“That was before they made the announcement. What’s the use of my plan now? Watch Chiara. I’ll go to the Barkworths and demand answers!”Theodore pulled a long face, but he did not intend to stop his wife. This time, he felt utterly humiliated and powerless. They could not even throw a tantrum when everyone was watching!His phone was flooded with incoming calls. He had irritably turned it off.Lyla looked at Chiara worriedly. “Chiara, I’m heading out for a bit. Stay here and wait for my call!”Chiara did not look at Lyla or acknowledge her.

She would not let the Barkworths off the hook! Never!…

    Lyla was so furious that she barked in laughter.She glared at them and said angrily, “What do you mean by that? Don’t you know what you’ve done? You broke your promise and turned us into the biggest laughing stock!”She was shouting with all her might. Her breathing had become ragged. Her face was red with emotion.Rosie looked at her. “Keep going. Let it all out.”Lyla sneered and continued speaking.“After the engagement was called off, everyone would assume the Lanes are at fault. You, however, are able to get out of this in one piece. You even might have found another business partner, or you started your own company to supply the materials you need. You used this chance to get rid of us!”Mindy’s expression turned grim. She opened her mouth and wanted to retort, but Rosie stopped her with a glance. A second later, Lyla’s wrathful voice rang out again.“Our enemies are probably laughing at us now! Even ordinary people would think that there’s something wrong with the Lanes,

    Lyla had uttered her last few words in loud determination.Samuel was furious. He sneered. “Lyla, we tried to save your family’s dignity, but you don’t seem to appreciate the gesture. Go home and reconsider the meaning of your words. If the Lanes move on us, don’t blame us for retaliating!”“You! You people…”Lyla was so furious that she nearly lost her mind. Her whole body was shaking. “Are you even human? My daughter was weak and frail all these years. We had to look after her. Not only did you not feel bad, you even called off the engagement without our permission. My daughter almost couldn’t wake up from her coma! She was so upset that she has become mentally unstable. You’ve done this to her! Her heart is broken, and she wants to kill herself! If she does, I’ll make you pay for this!”Lyla’s voice was sharp. She seemed to be threatening the Barkworths and venting her anger at the same time.However, none of the Barkworths believed her. After all, the Lanes were great actors.

    Theodore pondered silently. Something was off, but…If he did not retaliate, what should he do then?As he was deep in thought, he received yet another call.Frustrated, he said, “When are you coming back?”“Twenty minutes.”“Be quick then. I’m going to ask my people to watch over Chiara. I keep getting calls on my phone. I have to return to the company for a meeting.”“It’s an important matter. You have to step up and deal with it, after all. Go then. I’ll be back soon. Tell the people watching Chiara to take good care of her.”“Alright.”With that, Theodore hung up in a hurry.…An hour later, he showed up in the meeting room at Lane’s Group.The executives were sitting in their chairs with darkened expressions.Theodore rubbed the spot between his brows. He was reluctant to say another word.Thomas glanced at the others and said flatly, “Now that this has happened, we can’t complain and pin the blame on others. If anyone has any ideas, out with it.

    Sandy had just finished washing the dishes and planned to play with her phone for a bit. She did not expect to stumble upon the trending post on Twitter.“Iv! Big news! Your aunt dropped a bombshell! Hahahah! I wanted to see their reaction!”Her voice was filled with excitement. There was an indescribably expectant look in her eyes.Ivanka was holding her phone at the moment, so she opened Twitter.The top trending post was Lyla’s.Ivanka clicked on it and immediately saw the righteous rant she wrote.Lyla: “Hi, everyone. I’m Lyla, wife of Mr. Lane, chairman of Lane’s Group. I’m also the mother of Chiara Lane, who is the victim of this incident.”Here’s what happened.”A few years ago, to save the CEO of Barkworth’s Group, my daughter was injured and fell into a vegetative state. After learning about this, the Barkworths were grateful and swore they would repay her kindness. Later on, the marriage between Michael Barkworth and my niece Ivanka was on the rocks. He intended to

    Sandy’s expression changed slightly, and she looked at Ivanka with sympathy. “Iv…”Ivanka smiled. “Don’t worry about me. Regarding this matter, I’m already certain about something, and I’ll avenge my father. But I have also accepted my current situation. I won’t wallow in sorrow over this matter like I used to.Sandy looked at Ivanka’s expression and was certain that she was telling the truth. Ivanka simply mentioned her father’s murder to take a jab at Theodore. Sandy nodded and said with relief, “Yeah, and we’ll always support you!”She said “we”.Naturally, it included Hanson and Anna.Ivanka smiled again and took her hand. “I know. You’re the best.”“Then… we can sit back and watch how everything unfolds? The conflict has become so heated. The Barkworths no longer want to work with the Lanes. Are you sure you don’t plan to intervene?”“I don’t plan to, but there is still this project collaboration…”A glimmer of emotions flickered in Ivanka’s eyes. Due to this sudden incide

    “What the hell! Iv may be your girlfriend, but I’m your childhood friend! We practically grew up together! You only have eyes for her. What about me?! Ever since Iv became your girlfriend, you’ve been showing favoritism! You used to at least hide it well, but now, you don’t even bother pretending! Hanson, don’t you think you’re in the wrong here?”Anna burst into laughter. Even Ivanka could not help but chuckle.Hanson cleared his throat and smiled wryly. “You always say the most surprising things.”“Seriously?! You really weren’t keeping us in your mind at all?! We both pulled an all-nighter last night and didn’t even get a wink of sleep. We rushed to see you as soon as we got off the plane today! We should just break ties with your sorry *ss!”Anna’s eyes flickered. Sandy sure was a quick-witted lady!With that said, they would not have to wait much longer.Hanson obviously caught on. He looked at the two of them with surprise. “How long has it been since you two rested?”Ivan

    Sandy quickly looked up. Hanson’s expression had turned serious. His gaze was fixed on the Barkworth family’s Twitter post.Flustered, she handed her phone to Ivanka. Ivanka lowered her head to read it. In just a glance, two sentences caught her attention. Her expression subtly changed as well.Anna, on the other hand, speechlessly held her phone.Hanson did not bother looking at Anna and Sandy. He gazed concernedly at Ivanka. “Iv, you were the one at the scene that day?!”Ivanka’s eyes flickered as she remained silent.The Barkworth family had already made the situation very clear. There was no use for her to refute it.Hanson grabbed her hand. “How are you now? Why didn’t you tell me? You haven’t fully recovered, have you? Why did you come to visit me, anyway? You even came up with such a lame excuse!”He had sensed something was off when he heard what Sandy said earlier. He felt something off when Ivanka did not show up recently. He had never seen Sandy so busy before.Now,

    Ivanka did not pay him any mind and got into the car. If Michael dared to chase after her again, she would most definitely kick him out of the car! She would do what she said she would!Michael did not catch up, but he blocked her with his arms wide open. His stance was clear: You can leave. But over my dead body! Ivanka could not possibly drive over Michael. But it was not a problem for Michael to keep blocking her way. Plus, she had just politely rejected his parents. So, it was even more impossible for her to turn back. Ivanka ran out of patience. She held her forehead and frowned. Michael had already drained her last bit of patience. She never imagined that Michael would actually cling to her to such an extent! How would she put it? All her positivity had been drained clean! “Michael, your parents are still at home. Aren’t you afraid they’ll see and laugh at you? I know Grandpa and Grandma are standing by our side now. It’s not like you and I haven’t been in

  • Love Mission: Pursuing My Stunning Ex-Wife   Chapter 2338 Don’t Drain My Last Bit Of Patience

    Ivanka would neither accept the carrot nor the stick approach. Michael had no choice but to persuade her with reason and win her over with affection. Ivanka snorted. “Have you ever given me a chance to have a meal with you before this? As the saying goes, Rome wasn’t built in a day. It takes time for things to come to this state. Things might have passed for you but not for me!” Ivanka’s gaze was razor-sharp. Michael felt his heart clench up. At that moment, his throat was in so much pain that he did not know what else to say to her. Ivanka did not wait for his response. She pushed away his hand and headed out without hesitation. Michael did not stop her. Nonetheless, he went after her and followed behind her. Meanwhile, they heard the sound from the kitchen. Mindy prepared dinner in the kitchen, and Jay helped her out. They had heard their conversation. Out of courtesy, Ivanka went to the kitchen and greeted them. She said with a smile, “Uncle Jay, Aunt Mindy, I’m

    Ivanka clenched her fists. Her gaze was filled with ferocity. She looked like she was really going to punch Michael. Michael noticed the anger in her eyes. But since the person was none other than Ivanka, he was willing to take the beating. He even took a step forward and held his head high. “Strike me if you want.” “You!” Ivanka glared at Michael. He truly annoyed her. She reminded herself to keep her composure. She sucked in a deep breath before saying, “Michael, I’ve treated you with respect. You’d better behave yourself.” Right after she finished the sentence, Ivanka left. Before she even took a step forward, Michael grabbed her. “My mom is preparing the dishes inside the kitchen. If you leave now, you’re not showing me any respect. Please stay around to have dinner. Even though we’re already divorced, and it’s impossible for us to get back together again, we’re still friends,” said Michael. Haha! He had been adamant. He was using the same approach to draw close

    Mindy’s expression instantly darkened. “What’s with us being prejudiced against her? Had I ever targeted her when she married Michael from the beginning? “She knew how well Rosie had treated her. It’s her own fault for failing to bond with Mic. How could you blame us?” Mindy had always disliked Ivanka. She believed Samuel’s intervention had been the reason for their marriage. It was an arranged marriage. There was no need for the Barkworth’s family to have an arranged marriage. At the end of the day, it was all up to Samuel to choose the bride for Michael. Ever since Ivanka married Michael, aside from the deliberate arrangements, they had hardly shown up together as a couple in public. Mindy did not have any particularly hard feelings for Ivanka. She believed the two would live happily together after getting married. After they divorced, Mindy thought Michael could start all over again. But she did not expect to see their current relationship was no different from when they

    It was Jay and Mindy. When Ivanka saw them, a thought came across her mind. She took out a syringe and inserted it into Michael’s arm to unmute him. Michael felt like he had been stung by a bee. It was as though he had been put in jail, only to be freed all of a sudden. Ivanka took away the syringe and gave him a glance with displeasure. “Get out of the car now. Your parents are here—” “Aren’t you entering the house?” Before Ivanka finished her sentence, Michael interrupted her. When he looked at her, his eyes were filled with sincerity and seriousness. But Ivanka rejected him coldly. “Quick! Get out of the car! I’m not joking with you. Get out now!” “Let’s go in together. After all, you’re already here. Are you worried about seeing them?” Michael was undaunted by her emotions and tone. Instead, he stretched out his hand to try to grab Ivanka. Nonetheless, she avoided him with ease. Meanwhile, Jay and Mindy saw them. They walked over to them. Mindy glanced at th

    It was no wonder Jonah asked for so many details. All these were facts.Ivanka did not avoid answering his questions. She gave a light smile. “The longest will be half a year.”If the treatment was ineffective after half a year, she would go to Silvania with Vincent.After all, it was not just about her.Upon learning of Ivanka’s decision, Jonah smiled wryly. “Iv, I don’t think it’s an easy feat to treat my legs. How about you go and deal with your stuff first? You can always treat my legs afterward.”Ivanka initially planned to do it that way. But George, Florence, and Margaret had interrupted her plan.Since she had returned to Bostone, why was there a need to travel back and forth again?She might as well treat Jonah’s legs.Besides, Vincent had informed her that it would be highly uncertain whether they could still return to their home country after arriving at Silvania.Ivanka said, “No. I don’t want to make so many trips. I’ll treat your legs for half a year and see if i

    It was not an overstatement to say Michael was crossing the line. Nonetheless, Ivanka could not just sit there and watch the two men get into a conflict. Hence, Ivanka pulled Michael to the side and glanced at him. “If you don’t want to be kicked out, you’d better wait here.” But Michael was undaunted by Jonah. Although Jonah had the power to rebuke him in his own territory, Michael refused to allow Jonah to get the upper hand. Ivanka saw the determination in Michael’s eyes. She was very worried that the two might get into a fight. She quickly pulled him back. “Stop making me worry about you. Just wait here! If you dare to come after me, I’ll…” Although she did not finish her sentence, her intention was clear enough. If Michael disobeyed her, she would make him a statue! Understanding this, Michael did not follow Ivanka. But when Jonah turned around and left, the provocation in his eyes was evident. Still, Michael listened to Ivanka. He did not want to offend her. He

    Jonah narrowed his eyes while questioning Michael. Still, Michael did not respond to him. Ivanka pursed her lips. She looked displeased when she answered Jonah, “Jonah, there’s no need to speak so harshly. Do you still want me to treat your legs?” She had temporarily made Michael mute. She did that to stop Michael from talking endlessly about those things. Nonetheless, he had still insisted on coming along with her, only to end up being targeted by Jonah. Ivanka had no intention of making Michael mute in front of Jonah. Upon hearing Ivanka’s words, Jonah looked at where she currently stood. She stood in front of Michael. It looked like she was trying to protect him more. As the saying went, true love was portrayed in hard times. This saying was true indeed. It was true that Ivanka cared about Michael. Jonah said gently to Ivanka, “I want you to treat my legs, and I only speak harshly to specific people. I already showed him much respect when he barged into my terri

    Michael remained resolute.Ivanka rolled her eyes. “Then stay stubborn. I’ll only fix it when you stop pushing me away.”After she was done speaking, she turned to leave.Michael followed.He even opened the passenger door and got in her car. He was determined to follow her.But Ivanka would not go easy on him.Once inside, she warned him coldly, “Not being able to speak is harder than you think. Follow if you want. Michael, are you sure about this?”Even after her warning, he kept staring straight ahead.She said nothing more and started the engine.Within half an hour, she arrived at Jonah’s mansion.Jonah came out to greet her personally. The moment Ivanka parked the car, Jonah immediately spotted Michael in the passenger seat.The sight of him stirred up bitterness in Jonah. Yet there was nothing he could do.Before Ivanka exited the car, she said to Michael, “Wait here.”Without glancing at him, she walked straight toward Jonah.Her attitude made Michael decide t
