Rosie looked outside as she watched Michael chase after Ivanka. She then said worriedly again, “Something’s not right! I know Iv is disappointed in Mic. But despite that, I know she’s still not over him deep down. Normally, even if they’re having issues, Iv wouldn’t leave so abruptly. But today, she walked out without a word and looked all gloomy. And what’s with those shoes anyway? You mentioned the meaning behind giving shoes to girls earlier. What is it?”

Ivan became puzzled.

Oh man, could it be that the meaning of the shoes caused this? Did that mean Iv still had not moved on from Michael?

So, did that mean she had been deliberately stringing Michael along for such a long time?

Hmm, that did not seem right either.

Rosie noticed Ivan’s strange expression and asked him, “Ivan, quick, tell me already!”

She had not heard about this superstition before

Ivan stopped overthinking and quickly explained, “There’s a saying that lovers shouldn’t give each other shoes because it’s belie

    Ivanka had to walk away since she did not have her car with her, which allowed Michael to catch up quickly.When he noticed that she was walking ahead without looking back, he decided not to waste his breath calling out to her. He walked in front of her and grabbed her wrist. This stopped her from walking any further.She frowned and gave him a cold look. “Let go.”Her sharp gaze made him pause momentarily, but he held onto her wrist firmly. Instead, he stared at her and asked, “Why?”“Why?” Ivanka was ironically infuriated. “You said what you said and did what you did. And now you’re here asking me why?”Was he expecting her to recount the humiliation she had faced?She found it amusing.Michael frowned and did not understand what Ivanka was talking about.He suppressed his annoyance, tightened his grip on her hand and asked again, “What exactly is this fuss about?”Fuss?Ivanka scoffed as her impatience and disgust became more evident. “How could you say such a thing?”Mic

    Michael remained silent.Ivan grew anxious as he frowned and urged, “Say something already!”Michael’s face clouded with gloom as he continued remaining silent.Ivan was starting to get frustrated with Michael’s silence. He said in a low voice, “Why won’t you speak up?! Did you catch up with Ivanka? Did you talk to her? What happened?!”Michael did not seem inclined to speak. As he started walking away, Ivan grabbed his arm.Michael gazed sharply at Ivan’s hand. He never liked anyone touching him.At that moment, Ivan could not care less. He pressed on, “Ivanka was in a very bad mood earlier. Something huge must have happened. Why didn’t you chase after her?”Ivan arrived late because he had to stay with Rosie. He came over because she insisted on checking the situation.But all he found was Michael standing there alone like a fool.“Damn it! Say something! Tell me what happened. Grandma is getting worried over there.”Michael’s frown deepened. He finally spoke in a low voice

    Sure enough, after Ivan said that, Ivanka stopped walking.He promptly pulled over beside her and urged, “Please get in. Grandma is worried about you. She insists that I send you back. Otherwise, she’ll be worried.”Ivanka frowned but did not speak. Through the car window, she saw that there was indeed only Ivan in the car. However, he remained adamant about not getting in. She replied indifferently, “You can simply inform her that you sent me back. I won’t snitch on you.”“She said she’ll call me later and expects you to answer the phone. Or else, she’ll question me. Besides, she’s not young anymore. Let’s not make her worry. Do you know how anxious she was when she saw you storm off in a bad mood earlier?”Ivanka frowned and remained silent.“Come on, get in already. Grandma will be worried sick,” Ivan urged again.With no other choice, she ended up reluctantly opening the passenger door.Only after ensuring that she had gotten in, closed the door, and fastened her seatbelt

    Ivanka knew her place very well.She was suitable to be Mrs. Barkworth, but she did not deserve it.Considering these thoughts, Ivanka had lost interest in having anything further to do with Michael.Ivan was puzzled.He thought he was good at coaxing girls; why was he failing today?However, he overlooked one thing: he typically coaxed girls who liked him. Some of whom had ulterior motives, whether for his looks, status, or money.Consequently, he adopted a nonchalant approach toward women. He was convinced that minimal effort on his part would effortlessly draw in numerous women who would eagerly pursue him.“Don’t get mad, okay? I know you’re not happy right now, but I think it’s important for you to tell me what’s going on. It might help clear up any misunderstandings between you two.”“We’ve never needed to sort out any misunderstandings. In fact, there haven’t been any.”He had already made it clear to her that she was not deserving. What misunderstanding was there to ta

    Michael pursed his lips silently. Still, they could sense that he was in a very bad mood based on his standoffish demeanor and the coldness in his eyes. Rosie grew increasingly worried. “Iv, are you…” Rosie did not say more than that. At that moment, Ivanka looked calm. She smiled and said, “Grandma, you truly don’t have to worry about me.” “With your current state, how could I possibly not worry about you? Why don’t you come back? I can have Ivan fetch you back and kick Michael out of the house so that the two of us can have a good chat. How does that sound?” Ivanka said, “Grandma, I’m really fine. Besides, I still need to handle my work. How about I visit you again next time?” With Ivanka’s current mood, Ivan knew she could not possibly return to the Barkworth family’s mansion. He instantly said, “Rosie, I’m sending her back. In any case, she intends to visit her friend too. Her mood will improve once she gets together with her friend. Don’t worry. I’m with her. I can

    Ivan continued, “At that time, I was very curious about the gift, and it was not completely sealed. I wanted to open it and see what was inside. But the gift is so precious to him that he wouldn’t even let me touch it.” After that, Ivan told her about skirting around Michael’s car to find a way to open the gift. But in the end, he failed. However, the hint of sarcasm in Ivanka’s eyes only grew stronger. She thought. “How could Michael possibly let Ivan touch the gift? Michael wants me to see the gift at its perfection. He wants me to know how unworthy I am of such a perfect gift. Michael believes I’m an unworthy woman who thinks herself is worthy of something as precious as the crystal shoes if it’s spoiled.” For a moment, the frustration in her heart resurfaced. “Ivanka, I—” Apparently, Ivan still had something to say to her, but Ivanka frowned and said coolly, “Enough.” Ivan fell speechless. He thought. “I’m done. I’ve said something wrong.” A moment ago, Ivanka still

    Ivanka was amused by Sandy’s words. “There are still many decent guys in the world.” Sandy heaved a sigh. “Sigh. Do you truly think many nice guys exist in this world? Only a few are as good as Hanson.” Ivanka’s gaze instantly became complicated. She pursed her lips and said nothing. Seeing that Ivanka looked bored, Sandy immediately snapped out of her daze and remembered she should not have brought up Hanson before Ivanka. After all, Ivanka felt guilty for him. “Enough. Stop mentioning them. Shall we watch a show?” Ivanka nodded. “Okay.” Ivanka was not really interested in the show. Nonetheless, Sandy was an enthusiastic young lady who liked to make the atmosphere lively. With that, Ivanka’s mood improved. ... Ivanka remained a hot search on Twitter. The technicians repeatedly fixed it to prevent the internet from lagging. Still, some people experienced lag on Twitter. There were various topics on Twitter. No one expected Ivanka’s popularity to be greater than the

    Rachel’s lips parted, but no words came out of it. She knew Tanya was a very tough lady. Tanya could resolve any problems calmly. Her family was relieved with her taking over the family business in the future. This showed that Tanya was excellent and had a high level of self-control. However, Michael was an exception for her. He always crushed her bottom line and made her lose control of her emotions. Tanya hardly cried. She never cried. Rachel held Tanya’s hand and grabbed her phone. “Stop looking at it. At least you’re aware of the news.” The comments were useless. They would only stir up one’s emotions. Tanya sat on the couch motionlessly. She let Rachel grab her phone. At that moment, Tanya was able to hold back her tears. But her heart ached. Even though she refused to believe it, she clearly saw Michael was the one who took the initiative to wrap his arms around Ivanka as they left. He was the one who initiated every move. Ivanka, on the other hand, was passive fr

    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
