Chapter 767 He’d Rather Stick To His Pride, Even If It Means Enduring Suffering

Author: Deer
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

    Egbert stormed off in fury, but Sandy’s rage had not cooled in the slightest. She even lashed out at Ivan. “You shouldn’t have stopped me just now! If I’d given him a good scolding, or even a beating, maybe it would’ve finally knocked some sense into him. Otherwise, he’ll keep coming back. He’s always trying to use me for his own purposes!”She was so angry she was practically grinding her teeth. Ivan pressed his lips together and let out a long sigh. “With the way you looked like you were ready to kill someone, what did you expect me to do? Just stand there and watch you commit murder?”He was really worried when he saw how Sandy was losing control. “What’s the point of that old b*stard still being alive anyway?” Sandy said coldly. If she could really get rid of that old man, she would do it so she could avenge her mother and let go of that grudge she had been holding on.Ivan shook his head and said in a low voice, “Then think about it, how hard did you work to get to where yo

    Sandy exploded. “Eighty million? Why don’t you go rob a bank? Or better yet, see if that wrinkled old face of yours is worth anything as collateral!”Sandy was fuming.Egbert had not expected Sandy to be so vulgar. He turned back, enraged.His black eyes shot daggers like he could rip her apart on the spot. Sandy did not flinch. Instead, she lifted her chin and gave him a cold, mocking smile. “What? Are you so mad that you’re thinking about hitting me? Do you want me to remind you of the law? We have no legal ties anymore. If you so much as touch me, that’s assault. And let’s not forget, you barged into my workplace to cause a scene.”“Sandy, I don’t know what kind of twisted morals your birth mother and adoptive mother taught you, but just look at yourself now! Do you even resemble a proper human being?”Egbert was extremely disappointed in Sandy. The one thing Sandy hated most was when people brought up her birth mother and adoptive mother. Those two women were the most import

    Egbert snapped at Sandy coldly. His gaze was pressing.However, that had no effect on Sandy. Her lips even curled into a mocking smile as she said, “I’m not one of your McNeil pets. That look, your words, they cannot intimidate me at all.”At the mention of “pets,” Egbert was so furious that he slammed his cane against the floor with a loud crack. “Listen to yourself! Is that any way for a lawyer to speak? Do you even understand the meaning of respect, decency, and manners? Is that how your mother raised you?”Sandy had been mean and harsh on purpose to kill whatever sliver of hope he held onto.Just as she wished, he was angered.Watching him lose his composure, Sandy even felt a flicker of satisfaction rise within her. Her mother and herself were thrown out and lived a tough life while her father stood by uselessly. Who else was to blame, if not this old man standing before her?“My mother raised me to be a decent person. She taught me never to push away what’s rightfully mine,

    Thomas stated his purpose.Sandy’s reaction, however, was full of repulsion. She frowned. Even her tone was curt. “Uncle, I made it very clear about seeing him the last time we spoke. He never once considered me part of the McNeil family. If it weren’t for my mother taking me in, I wouldn’t be where I am today. Now that I’ve grown up and suddenly seem useful, he wants to claim me back? I was abandoned by the McNeil family the moment I was born. I’m not stupid enough to become a pawn for your family!”Sandy was furious.She had always treated Thomas with a certain courtesy, but at the moment, that line had clearly been crossed.Thomas, though only the messenger, could feel the weight of her resentment. “It may not be as bad as you think. If you won’t go, Dad will come find you himself.”That was the truth. Yet Sandy did not spare the old man a shred of respect. She scoffed. “He might be your dad, your head of the family, but he’s nothing to me. From the moment I was abandoned, th

    Sandy was really surprised to see Ivanka. “When did you get back?”“Today,” Ivanka answered honestly.“You have quite a packed schedule for just one day.” Sandy teased her.When they had planned to take down Coco last time, Ivanka was not around. Then Michael returned. From what Sandy could tell, they were always either together or closely following each other.Ivanka did not respond to her teasing. “I’ll only be here for a day or two, then I would have to leave again.”Sandy was speechless. She rolled her eyes at Ivanka. “Are you going to become a full-time jet setter?”“She can’t help it,” Anna answered for Ivanka. Just as she finished saying that, Anna’s phone rang. It was another case to follow up on. She had to step away to take the call.Only Ivanka and Sandy remained in the office. “You look exhausted. If you keep going like this, I’m worried you’ll wear yourself out!” Sandy shook her head and expressed her concern for Ivanka. Ivanka chuckled. “I wouldn’t go that fa

    When she heard what Anna said, Ivanka immediately teased. “Why, can’t I even come to the firm?”“Well, of course, you can come. You are an important partner; why can’t you come?” Anna laughed and looked at Ivanka, annoyed. Immediately after, she made a cup of tea for Ivanka.The tea was also of fine quality. She had bought it.Ivanka also remembered how she, Anna, and Sandy, the three of them, used to work hard together in the firm after she divorced Michael. Originally, she wanted to live on her own. However, one thing happened after another, and her plans got delayed. “I don’t see Sandy. Has she gone to handle cases?” Ivanka sipped a mouthful of tea, and immediately after, she asked Anna about Sandy’s whereabouts.Anna told Ivanka truthfully. “Sandy recently took over a very tricky case. She wants to make a not-guilty defense for that person. But the father of the deceased is the Groethe family, a rather prestigious family in Bostone. How could a commoner fight with a rich ki

    But as time went on, things happened one after another. While they were in contact with each other, she also slowly understood Jonah’s personality.The most important thing was that Jonah was also honest with her later on.When Jonah mentioned this again, Ivanka could not help but scrutinize Jonah again.He was starting to become unhinged!“Jonah, you need to stabilize your emotions. Sometimes, when you feel impatient, you should just close your eyes and take a good rest. You should not have such emotions.”Ivanka spoke solemnly toward Jonah and advised him. When he saw Ivanka’s serious expression, Jonah instantly also realized that he had lost himself.Ivanka was not like Chiara, who could accept him losing control. If he lost control in front of Ivanka, it would affect Ivanka’s mood. That would make him courting death too! This would put a halt to all his opportunities!Jonah also realized this problem. He was very distressed. He could not even explain why his emotions had

    When Ivanka said this, she pressed her hand on Jonah’s shoulder. There was no other meaning, she wanted Jonah to calm down.But this instead gave Jonah an opportunity. He grabbed Ivanka’s wrist. Then he tugged forward forcefully… Ivanka was caught off guard, and her whole body fell on top of him.He then took advantage of the situation and held Ivanka in his arms.The faint scent entered his nose, Jonah was intoxicated for a moment.But at that moment, he felt like he was waking up from a dream.Ivanka could not be so intimate with him. The sensations of touch and warmth in front of him were so real again. It was not an illusion, it was his compulsion!After realizing this, Jonah hurriedly pushed Ivanka away. He even more quickly apologized to Ivanka. “Iv, I’m sorry. I lost control. I didn’t mean to…”“I know.”Ivanka uttered softly, but her tone was cold.She knew. Neither did she blame him. But why was she using that tone, with that look on her face?“No, Iv. you’re blami

    “Jonah, I don’t like you. I told you, I only see you as a friend. When I’m unwilling to do something, no amount of moral coercion would work on me.”Ivanka spoke up bluntly. She did not want Jonah to cling to something impossible.Jonah was silent.This was where Jonah and Michael were different.“Look, you still have so many things to do. By the time you remember me, we have already missed the best time. This time when you leave, did Michael go with you?” Jonah raised his eyes to meet Ivanka’s. He wanted to hear Ivanka’s answer from her mouth.Ivanka did not reply. But the look in her eyes already said it all.Her silence confirmed it all.Jonah felt that his heart grow incredibly heavy at the moment. He had a crazy thought: Was it true that if Michael died, Ivanka would be able to focus all her attention on him?However, he was an invalid and did not even have a chance to get close!“The way you treat Michael and the way you treat me has always been so different.
