Chapter 72 I Don’t Have a Father

Author: Deer
Sandy snorted. “Don’t get ahead of yourself. It’s likely to be Iris. Jonah knows very well that you’re Michael’s best friend. He would almost certainly find someone more capable than you to beat you. If he hires someone else, all his hard work will be in vain.”

Ivan snorted coldly. “Even if it’s Iris, I’m confident of my chances. Besides, she has disappeared for several years, so it’s uncertain who’s better. Her reputation affects me since everyone keeps saying I’m the next Iris. I’ll never change my name. I’m Ivan York, not the next Iris!”

“Do you hate being called the next Iris? When Iris was famous back then, you were not as successful as you are now. Now that you’re successful, you no longer take her seriously.”

Sandy’s voice was full of disdain. Then, she said in mockery, “If you continue to be so arrogant, you’ll eventually lose to Iris. I’m going to wait for that day to happen.”

“F*ck!” Ivan looked at her angrily. “You’re inhumane! Even though we’re fighting over the same it

    Ivan immediately turned and saw Ivanka. He frowned slightly. He thought. “This woman used to care about Michael. She was a qualified Mrs. Barkworth.“But now, they have a tense relationship, and she’s even getting together with Jonah. This is unexpected.”Ivan did not plan to get out of the car. He simply glanced at Ivanka. After Sandy closed the door, he drove away.Sandy looked at Ivanka excitedly. “Iv, look. I bought a lot of things. Can you cook for me?”The corners of Ivanka’s mouth twitched. “Aren’t you afraid of getting fat if you eat so much?”“I’m proud of being fat! That’s the prize of eating good food. Those who want to gain weight can’t even get this prize.”Ivanka speechlessly went upstairs with her.Sandy ate many plates of delicious food. She was satisfied. However, she did not plan to spend the night here today. She was worried that Ivan was planning something, so she had to go home quickly for fear of Ivan going to her house to steal that item.The following tw

    After saying that, Mindy could not help but sneer again. “They might get married before Michael.”Bang!Michael suddenly put the cutlery on the table with a gloomy expression.The others looked at him in puzzlement.Mindy returned to her senses and hurriedly said, “Son, it’s not worth being angry with her. Now that you have Chiara, you must be responsible for her. Chiara is a good girl. She is smart, thoughtful, and dignified. She is suitable to be the head lady of the Barkworth family.”Samuel nodded in agreement. “That’s right. We need to continue cooperating with the Lane family in business at a later stage, and it’s good for you to marry Chiara.”Michael frowned. “The situation is tense now, and I have a lawsuit in two days. Let’s talk about it later.”Rosie could not help but sigh. While she felt pity for their divorce, the three were determined to see this through, so there was no point in stopping them.If she forcibly stopped them from divorcing, they would worry about

    The family background and ability of the head lady were crucial.Michael must not marry a useless woman like Ivanka, who only knew how to be a full-time housewife!……The next day, Ivanka went to work in the law firm as usual. However, Drury’s attitude toward her seemed to have worsened.Ivanka did not mind it in the least. After all, they were not working in the same office.After working for a whole day, she suddenly received a call.Ivanka’s expression slightly darkened when she saw the caller.This number…After hesitating, she still answered it and said politely, “Mr. Barkworth.”The other party paused and sighed helplessly. “You change the way of addressing me so fast.”Ivanka pursed her lips. She was silent for a while and asked, “How can I help you?”“Iv, no matter what happened between the two of you, I’ll always be your father since the first day you called me father. It has nothing to do with blood relationship, don’t you know that?”His voice was soft and loving

    Ivanka hurriedly shook her head. “Dad, please don’t say that. It has nothing to do with you. I guess we were simply not fated to be together.”Jay shook his head. “Iv, you two are fated to be together.”Ivanka was stunned. She thought. “Did he come to persuade me to reconcile with Michael?”“You…”That was all she could say, since she did not know how to respond.Jay sighed helplessly. “Iv, I know him well. He actually has feelings for you.”Ivanka could not help but chuckle after hearing that. “Dad, although I regret wasting my love in the past few years, you don’t have to say such a white lie to comfort me.”Jay shook his head solemnly. “No, Iv. I’m not lying to you.”Ivanka said nothing.She clearly did not believe him.Jay did not force her to believe it and continued speaking.“You have known each other for many years. Before that incident happened, Michael’s attitude toward you was not bad, and you could feel it, right?”A trace of nostalgia flashed in Ivanka’s eyes.

    Ivanka had great doubts. She thought. “Michael probably didn’t investigate the incident and thought I was behind it.“If Jay knows the truth, why didn’t he tell him?“Or, Jay had told him, but he didn’t believe him.“If someone tricked Michael, that person would definitely suffer, but why is nothing wrong with that person until now?“Is that person being dealt with privately?”While Ivanka was thinking, she kept looking at Jay. She saw him lose his calm for a second, but he returned to normal immediately.“You don’t know that person. It’s someone from the business world. He wanted his daughter to sleep with Michael, but you two accidentally got together. That company has vanished.”Ivanka’s lips twitched.If Michael speedily acted and wiped that company out, he would not have had so many misunderstandings of her.Of course, he might hate her, but according to Jay, Michael had feelings for her.So, of the two things Jay told her, he had lied about the first one.Michael had n

    Catherine’s mouth was wide open. She looked at the two people sitting opposite each other on the second floor in disbelief.“Oh god! Aren’t they Ivanka and Michael’s father? W-Why are they together?”Everyone was in the circle of the wealthy, so everyone knew Jay.Chiara looked nervous. She thought. “Jay has always liked Ivanka. Was he here to persuade her?“It wasn’t easy to get those two to get a divorce. I mustn’t let them reconcile!”Chiara thought of an idea. She immediately took her phone out and took a photo of the two.Catherine looked at her in surprise. “Chiara, what’re you doing?”Chiara smiled. “Mr. Barkworth has always liked Iv. I’m sure he asked Iv out to persuade them to reconcile. I’m going to show this photo to Mic and let him know how hard Mr. Barkworth has worked for their marriage so that he can change his mind and remarry Iv.”Catherine looked at Chiara in surprise. “Chiara, are you crazy?! How could you say such a thing?!”Chiara shook her head helplessly

    “I’m not making this up! It’s all over the press. She and Jay’s photos are all over the Internet. Go on Twitter to check it out if you don’t believe me. Her name topped the list of trending searches. I say, Ms. Lane is quite something. Even though she isn’t in the entertainment business, she consistently tops the trending searches. She really knows how to play her cards well. Tsk…” The mockery in Drury’s eyes was blatant. She stared at the man across the room. However, Abel was not listening to her at all. He was fiddling with the files on his computer. Drury could not help but say something again. “Abel, didn’t you hear what I said? Ivanka is a tramp!” Abel cast an indifferent glance at her. “Are you done talking?” Drury choked up with anger. “You… Ivanka is…” Drury was about to keep going when her arm was suddenly gripped by Lucy, who was sitting next to her. She whispered, “Dru, stop talking.” As Lucy said that, she signaled to her that Ivanka was staring at her from th

    She was speaking very casually, but the six people in the room could feel the intense hostility coming from her. They stared at Ivanka in disbelief. They thought, “Is that why she was Mrs. Barkworth?” She gave off a different vibe compared to common people. Drury’s expression was dark as well. In spite of her fear, she yelled back for the sake of her pride, “Do you think I’m afraid of you? I was simply stating the facts!” Ivanka sneered. Then, she turned around and walked towards the office. Drury and the rest remained on their feet. They could not take their gazes away from her graceful and inviolable back. It seemed that Ivanka was destined to be the center of attention wherever she went, and all the bad comments about her seemed to have been spurred by jealousy. Lucy sighed resignedly and gave Drury a little nudge. “Dru, cut her some slack from now on. Although she is now divorced, she should not be underestimated. Besides, we are all lawyers. We all know that many thing

    Ivanka knew why it would not work. It was because someone had already arrived at the police station ahead of her and wanted to bail out Ferris while leaving Mandy as the scapegoat. Seeing that Ivanka did not say anything, the leader was afraid of provoking the two, so he hurriedly exclaimed, “Of course we can do it! Arrange for it immediately.” The police officer looked reluctant. “About that… Ferris currently has visitors. If you want to meet him, you can only do so with all three of you together, and you may want to say something in private…” The police officer had a point. Ivanka did not force the issue either. She thought momentarily and said, “Then can I see Mandy at least?” The police officer kept nodding. In comparison, it was much easier to see Mandy. It was simple. She had no power. Ferris was the only one she depended on, and he was in prison. The two had even turned against each other. Needless to say, Mandy must be in bad shape. Although she was mentally

    Ivanka subconsciously used a fork and stirred the pasta on the plate. Michael remembered her words to that day. It was a delightful meal. Ivanka ate to her satisfaction. After breakfast, Rosie finished taking her stroll. Ivanka and Michael coincidentally were about to leave the house. Rosie exercised while asking, “Where are you going? We’re going to have lunch in a while.” Michael glanced at Ivanka. She knew it was her fault, so she said nothing. Michael could have blamed Ivanka because such a chance was hard to come by. But he answered this instead, “We just finished our breakfast, so we’ll skip lunch. We’re going to the police station.” Rosie nodded in understanding. The corners of her lips curved upward. She knew everything that had happened since yesterday. So she waved her hand. “Go ahead.” Michael and Ivanka left together. Rosie and Mrs. Ruth marveled while watching their silhouettes from behind. “Look, they are so matching together. Even their backs comp

    The next day, when the sunlight shone onto the bed through the gauze, Ivanka gradually woke up. She opened her blurry eyes and took her phone. She was shocked to see that it was already after 10 a.m.. It could have been due to it being a rare opportunity to relax after returning home. Perhaps it was also her overthinking that had kept her up very late last night. Regardless, Ivanka seldom woke up so late. She quickly washed up and went downstairs, only to realize Michael was sitting on the couch reading today’s newspaper. Meanwhile, Rosie and Candice were nowhere to be seen. When Michael heard a sound coming from upstairs, he turned around and saw Ivanka hurriedly walking down in heels. He frowned and said, “Slow down. Don’t be so nervous.” Upon hearing his words, she subconsciously slowed down. Michael stared at Ivanka. His gaze was filled with desire and love, and he refused to look away. Ivanka reached downstairs. She looked around and asked, “Where are Grandma a

    Ivanka remembered something and turned to Michael. “Why are you here? Do you have anything to talk to me about?” “I went to your room but couldn’t find you. So, I looked around and finally found you here. Are you enjoying the night view?” After Michael finished his sentence, he looked up to see the sky. Ivanka looked up at the sky too. Michael rested his gaze on Ivanka. He glanced at her chin, then her fair and slender neck, after that her collar bone… The rest of her body was covered in clothes. Yet, the sight was very tempting. Michael gulped. “Tonight’s moonlight is beautiful.” Michael naturally said the sentence. When Ivanka heard this, she turned to him and looked stunned. Michael looked away and said somewhat unnaturally, “When I was downstairs, Candice said she had something else to handle tomorrow, so she couldn’t accompany you to the police station.” After Michael finished his sentence, he stared at Ivanka and observed her expression. He was disappointe

    Ivanka nodded. What Rosie said was true. Rosie continued, “If Michael were the stranger, why are you resisting him and feeling helpless?” Ivanka was stunned. It was a fact. If a stranger courted her relentlessly, Ivanka would only find them annoying. But she would not resist them. Only she knew the reason she refused to accept them. But when it came to Michael, she treated him differently. From the bottom of her heart, she refused to give him a fair chance to court her. Was it because she was worried that her heart would move for him? Ivanka was startled by the thought. She shook her head as if trying to get that ridiculous thought out. When Rosie saw this, she chuckled. Ivanka was a smart woman. It was sufficient to say all that; too much would be meaningless. Rosie looked up at the moon. She could not help but sigh. “Tonight’s a beautiful moon night. Unfortunately, it’s time for me to go to bed.” After Rosie finished her sentence, she headed to her room. Ivanka

    On the other hand, Ivanka had no idea her best friend had “betrayed” her. She helped Rosie into the bedroom. When they passed the garden, Rosie suggested walking inside it. Ivanka was too embarrassed to reject her. So, they came to the garden. The gardeners attended and trimmed the garden daily. It was naturally a sight to behold. There were many rare plants in the garden. Of course, there were also some rare herbal plants in the garden. Ivanka had planted them, and the herbal plants were flourishing. There was a botanical garden encircled within the garden. It contained the herbal plants used to nourish Rosie’s health. While they were walking along the path, the fragrance of flowers, the earthy smell of the soil, and the faint aroma of the herbal plants entered their nostrils. The fragrance lifted their spirits. On top of that, the fragrance could refresh one’s mind. Rosie felt more refreshed as she walked down the path in the garden. She grabbed Ivanka and shared

    Within the blink of an eye, it was already 12 a.m.. Ivanka noticed that Rosie had been yawning but still refused to go to bed. Ivanka knew why. While they were chatting, Ivanka occasionally turned to Rosie. While Rosie was wiping off her basal tears, Ivanka and Michael exchanged glances. Ivanka sat beside Rosie and patted her hands gently. Rosie looked more alert, but her eyes were still a little blurry and appeared bloodshot. She had dark rings beneath her eyes. In spite of her exquisite makeup, her dark eye rings were still visible. Of course, it was only visible when Ivanka looked closer at her. Seeing this, Ivanka’s heart ached more for Rosie. Ivanka believed Rosie must have stayed up late or had insomnia when she and Michael went missing. Rosie wanted to receive first-hand information about the missing duo, but she was also worried that she would not be able to face reality. After struggling and battling with her inner conflicts for a month, Rosie’s health de

    Speaking of which, this was Michael’s first time seeing Ivanka looking this helpless, and he found this a novelty. Whenever Rosie said things like that, Ivanka usually looked expressionless. She either looked calm, or she pretended to be deaf. Based on her unease and embarrassed look, did that mean her heart began to move for Michael? With that thought in his mind, Michael was eager to find out the answer. At that moment, they heard Candice’s voice. “Why are you staying outside? Did I come at a bad time? I thought I could have dinner immediately after I returned from work.” Ivanka and her group turned around and saw Candice standing not far away from them. She smiled as she looked at them. When Candice noticed Rosie’s teary eyes, she looked surprised and approached them. “Grandma has a sharp tongue, but she’s soft-hearted. She said the two of you were so cruel that you left her and a whole mess behind. She said she would teach you a lesson when you return.” While speaki

    Everything had been fine just a moment ago.Why had she suddenly started to distance herself from him?It was probably true that a woman’s mind was unpredictable. Even a strong woman was no exception.Soon, they arrived at the Barkworth family’s mansion.Michael wanted to get out first and open the door for Ivanka, but she stopped him by tapping her soft hand on his shoulder.He looked down at her hand and then looked at her.“Don’t get out yet. I’ll grab a coat for you from inside and come back.”Michael wanted to refuse, but Ivanka had already exited the car.He watched her walk away. He then leaned back against the seat and felt a wave of relaxation.It felt as though he had finally found someone who had his back.He could not help but find it funny when he thought about it. He glanced at the spot where Ivanka had touched his hand and chuckled quietly.In the front seat, the driver felt so awkward about what he had just witnessed that he wished he could hide behind the st
