Chiara and Lyla looked at the phone at the same time. They knew that the same person might have called again.

The incoming call was a virtual call rather than a call from a regular mobile phone number.

She hesitated for a moment before answering it.

She remained silent when she picked it up.

The same young girl’s voice came through and said, “Have you checked out Twitter yet?”

Chiara’s eyes flickered. After a brief pause, she said softly, “I have.”

She kept her response short because she still could not trust that person enough. Otherwise, she would have definitely asked why, despite sending so many people, they were unable to harm Ivanka. This was truly unacceptable to her.

Before she could say anything, the caller said, “She’s surprisingly skilled. I didn’t expect that.”

Her voice sounded calm. She did not seem to be affected by the failed plan.

Chiara was surprised. “She’s skilled?”

Despite growing up with Ivanka, she had no idea that Ivanka was good at martial arts.

    “We’ve no idea if the person is a guy or a girl. I hate this feeling.” Chiara clutched her phone tightly as her expression turned sour. After a moment of thought, she looked at Lyla again. “Mother, do you think this person could be Tanya?”Lyla pondered for a moment, then said, “It doesn’t seem likely. Tanya holds a more powerful status and position than Ivanka in every aspect. She’s pampered, and it’s unlikely for her to do something like this. Moreover, the way the person spoke directly targeted Ivanka, which seems like something a rival would do, but it also feels a bit off.”“Off in what way?”Lyla furrowed her brows. She remained thoughtful and did not rush to speak.Seeing that Lyla seemed to have something in mind, Chiara spoke again, “What’s going on, Mother? Can you tell me?”Lyla hesitated a bit but eventually said, “If I’m not mistaken, Ivanka’s mother came from a wealthy family.”Chiara was surprised. “What do you mean?”When her family moved in during her childhood,

    Chiara was furious.That b*tch!......At that moment, everyone had arrived at the police station.The thugs were in excruciating pain all over their bodies. Some could not even walk properly, much like their leader, Green Hair.He could barely move and needed two of his subordinates to support him.On the way to the police station, he wanted to tell the police officers that he was injured and needed to go to the hospital. However, upon seeing Ivanka’s cold gaze, he became terrified and did not dare to speak.Ivanka played the earlier recording as soon as everyone entered the police station.Instantly, everyone heard the thugs’ vulgar words. Panic spread among them.The expressions of the two police officers darkened.After the recording ended, Ivanka said softly, “Officers, I just think these guys are habitual troublemakers. Who knows how many people they’ve harmed in the past and how many outrageous things they have done? I hear they’ve got some accomplices too. Maybe it’s w

    The thugs thought. “We were told that they no longer had anything to do with each other!” They never trusted the posts on Twitter. Prior to this, they were more or less concerned about Ivanka and Michael’s relationship. But their employer had explicitly told them that the duo’s relationship was not what they thought. After witnessing how Michael and Ivanka interacted, the thugs believed they had been fooled. They kept quiet and grew increasingly nervous. They wondered what they should do. While they were panicking, Michael said, “There will be no peace until you get rid of these tumors of society. If you need my help, don’t hesitate to inform me.” The police were a little surprised. They quickly replied to him, “Got it. Thank you.” Michael nodded and said nothing. Meanwhile, Ivanka grinned and said, “If you need my help, don’t hesitate to inform me too.” Ivanka, too, was no ordinary person. The police were shocked upon hearing them. The thugs instantly became st

    Michael’s expression turned dark as he sat on the main seat. He instantly started his car engine and drove off. Ivanka frowned deeply. Michael said nothing. He was focused on driving. Ivanka pursed her lips. “My car is right over there. When you reach that intersection, drop me off.” After all, it was the same road for him to drive home too. When she said “that intersection”, she naturally meant the area near the alley. Michael ignored her and continued driving. While he was driving, Ivanka realized Michael did not go down the said road. She immediately turned to him and asked, “Where are you going?” Michael ignored her. He drove his car coolly. He did not even glance at Ivanka. As he continued driving, Ivanka knew where they were heading. She pursed her lips and said nothing. The incident had been a hit on Twitter. She believed Rosie must have known about it. Hence, it was best to explain to her. After all, Rosie was the only elder who cared for her the most in

    Michael was annoyed when Ivanka refused to say anything. Meanwhile, Rosie looked puzzled and stared at Ivanka incredulously, “Iv, is that true?” Ivanka slightly avoided her gaze. She held Rosie’s hand and said, “Yes. I learned some when I was young. Besides, I often practice it, so I’m still quite skillful. No one can come close enough to me.” After Ivanka finished speaking, Michael’s phone rang. It was from Evan. Michael answered his call. “What is it?” “Mr. Barkworth, I went to the police station to gain an understanding of the situation. They have arrested a total of seventeen people. Twelve of them have bone fractures, two of them will be eunuchs for the rest of their lives while the remaining three have many cuts and bruises on their bodies.” Michael’s lips twitched as he cast Ivanka a glance. Rosie sat beside Michael. Although he did not turn on the speaker, she heard their conversation. While Rosie was still in a daze, Evan said, “The police said Ms. Ivanka h

    Ivanka thought. “Could Theodore and his family no longer hold back, so they decided to make their move?” Ivanka was deep in her thoughts. “Sigh. No matter what, you need to be careful in the future. How about you bring along a bodyguard with you? I’ll have Mic find two for you. With that, I’ll be more at ease. Someone has already set their sights on you. It could be your enemies. It’s unsafe for you to be alone.” Ivanka said with a smile, “Grandma, I’ll be fine.” Ivanka naturally had to find out who the culprit was. Rosie was worried about her, so she kept persuading Ivanka. Out of resignation, Ivanka gave in to Rosie and promised to find someone to protect her. Under Rosie’s pressure, Michael promised to find two bodyguards for Ivanka. It was only then that Rosie felt at ease. It was late. Ivanka did not stay around. The Barkworth family’s driver sent Ivanka back to the area where she parked her car. The driver drove her car and personally sent her back to her doorst

    Michael did that all because he did not want Hanson to gain first-hand information and contact Ivanka. “Sigh. By the time Hanson learns about it, it’s too late. I’m already late myself. He’ll feel very guilty by the time he’s informed because he wasn’t there to protect you right after the incident. He’ll think that he failed as a boyfriend.” After Sandy finished speaking, another person joined their video call group. Sandy was the one who initiated the video call among the trio’s WhatsApp group. Anna asked loudly, “What are you two talking about?” “You’ll find out from Twitter,” said Sandy calmly. Anna chuckled. “What’s the matter? Did Iv go on some weird hot search again?” As she was saying, she already browsed Twitter. After reading the latest post, her expression instantly changed. “What happened?” Anna immediately clicked on the post and saw everyone commenting about the photo and its content. Ivanka made it sound like a simple issue as she told her everything.

    Ivanka answered. Before she said anything, the person on the other line asked, “How are you?” “I’m good. Everything is fine.” Jonah frowned. “I’ve had someone learn about the situation and gained an understanding about your side.” “You don’t need to spend so much energy on it.” Ivanka sounded calm. Jonah sighed in resignation. “You keep thinking that I’m making use of you and that I always have ulterior motives.” Ivanka pursed her lips. She originally did not want to say anything. But she thought it would be rude to keep quiet. Hence, she sighed and said, “You’ve overthought.” Jonah naturally knew what she was thinking, thus he stopped bringing up the topic. Instead, he stated, “Michael caused me trouble. If not, I would have instantly come to you.” Ivanka was a little surprised. But she knew he did not lie to her. If Jonah wanted to use her, he would have immediately found her. However, he did not show up today. Something must have happened. Ivanka was surpr

    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

  • 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

    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
