Chapter 79 Merciless

Author: Deer
“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

    The chattering continued in the law firm.Time passed, and afternoon arrived.Chiara kept herself busy by going to the Barkworth’s family mansion.She also brought some gifts to please the Barkworths.She had already told Mindy she was going. Therefore, she went to visit them.As soon as she entered the door, she saw Mindy coming to greet her enthusiastically. “You’re here, Chiara.”Chiara smiled and nodded. “Hi, Mrs. Barkworth.”She handed over the high-end skincare gift box in her hand to her. “Mrs. Barkworth, I asked my friend to bring this back from abroad. They’re all authentic products. They’ve very effective. You have to try it. If you like it, I’ll ask my friend to bring me some more.”Mindy accepted the gift with a polite smile. “Oh, you could’ve just visited, yet you always brought me a gift. There is no need for this next time, all right? You saved my son’s life, and you suffered so much for it. I’m forever indebted to you.”Chiara instantly shook her head with a sm

    Chiara nodded along. “They really have gone too far, but these are what netizens like. You just need to get used to it, Mrs. Barkworth.”“No! I meant that these two have gone too far!” Mindy’s expression was livid. Without saying another word to Chiara, she took her phone and made a call.He answered almost immediately. Mindy clenched her teeth and asked, “Where are you?”Jay said with a calm expression on his face, “On my way home.”Mindy, who was still suppressing her anger, tightened her grip on the phone and said, “Why didn’t you tell me that you were back? Why did you actually go to see Ivanka first?”Chiara’s eyes flashed with a sneer. If Mindy and her husband got into a fight, she would dislike Ivanka even more. By then, Ivanka would completely have no chance of returning to the Barkworths.Besides, the one who called the shots in this family was Grandpa Barkworth. He did not like Ivanka either. He just wanted her to marry into his family, which she would.Chiara pulled M

    Mr. Murphy was just about to walk over and talk to Ivanka after the call when he suddenly received another call. Mr. Murphy’s expression seemed to grow a bit more serious. He kept turning around and looked at Ivanka with an apologetic gaze. Ivanka picked up on it as well, and she was perplexed. Soon, Mr. Murphy walked toward her and looked at her apologetically. “Ms. Lane, I’m really sorry, but I’m afraid… I can’t sell the place to you anymore.” Ivanka’s eyes filled with confusion. “Is something wrong?” Mr. Murphy could not help but let out a sigh. “I blame myself for my lack of power. I can’t even choose the buyer of my mall. A big shot just gave me a call and said that I could only sell my mall to him, or he would…” He did not finish his sentence, but it must have involved Mr. Murphy’s other interests. Ivanka frowned slightly. “Are you at liberty to tell me who he is?” Mr. Murphy said resignedly, “People will find out who he is when he runs the place later, anyway. I gu

    Mr. Murphy was a sensible man. If Michael had wanted to mess with him, checking the contract would be a pointless thing to do. He took over the card and signed the contract without any hesitation. He smiled and said, “Then, I’ll transfer the title to you tomorrow.” With a calm expression on his face, Michael smoothly put the contract in Ivanka’s hand. “This is for you.” Mr. Murphy was perplexed. Ivanka was completely baffled. As the contract slipped from her grasp, she hurriedly grabbed it. Then, she stared at him with puzzled eyes. Michael, on the other hand, snorted. “I know you hate me, but there is no need to let things get ugly. Since you want the place, I’ll buy it and give it to you. I just hope you will leave our family alone now!” The disdain in his eyes made Ivanka sneer. She casually threw the contract on the ground. “I remember telling you that all your stuff is filthy.” Mr. Murphy was shocked. Mr. Murphy thought, “So this Ms. Lane is… No wonder she called h

    Early in the morning, when Ivanka went downstairs, someone already parked a blue Lamborghini in front of her building. Ivanka’s eyes widened slightly in surprise. The driver’s seat door suddenly opened and Jonah got out.He was dressed in an exquisite blue suit, which set off his fair skin. He did not look like a boy toy anymore. If anything, he looked like a warm and gentle guy.If she did not know him to be a cold-hearted guy, he looked like a regular, warm, and nice guy at that moment.“Morning.”Jonah came over and opened the passenger door for her, his eyes betraying a hint of amazement.Ivanka always surprised him at every meeting.Ivanka’s outfit today was simple. It was just a black formal dress.She was wearing formal attire too when he saw her at the law firm. However, the way she dressed today gave off a different feeling.She had tied her long hair into a bun. She looked clean and neat today. Jonah kept looking at her with a tender gaze.Ivanka did not find it odd.

    Michael’s expression instantly turned icy. Ivan sensed that something was wrong and looked over. When he saw them walking side by side over there and that they appeared to be talking and smiling, the corner of his lips twitched speechlessly.“Your ex-wife has got someone new.”Michael’s expression was glum. Perhaps because his gaze was too stern, they both saw him.Before Jonah could say anything, Michael entered the room. Jonah curled his lip into a sneer.Ivan, on the other hand, glanced at Ivanka and gave her the middle finger before entering.Ivanka continued to enter without comment as Jonah sneered a little and gave her a sidelong glance.Michael had already arrived at the defendant's seat at this point and seated himself.However, his expression abruptly became even sterner when he noticed the sign in front of him!Ivan looked over as well. He was shocked. “Darn! Since when did Ivanka become a lawyer?”Michael clenched his teeth and said nothing.Ivan said frustratingl

    It was a shame that they could not film in a courthouse. Otherwise, they would have filmed it from the beginning till the end.They would be able to share such an entertaining show with everyone.It did not cross anyone’s mind what Ivanka was capable of. All they wanted to see was the drama that was going to happen between them.While they were still waiting for the show to start, the personnel finally finished the summary.The judge looked calm. “Defendant, in regard to the plaintiff’s claims, do you have anything to say?”Ivan had long prepared for this before the hearing. He had speculated the various points the plaintiff would raise, so he spoke without any hesitation.“Objection.”Michael was sitting in his seat, but he was not listening to Ivan. His sharp gaze was focused on Ivanka.Jonah, on the other hand, cocked an eyebrow. He found this getting more and more interesting.“In response to the issues raised by the plaintiff, we have five points of objection.”“First, a

    Instead, she remained standing in front of Jimothy and studied the group of men with a smile.“He works at our company. Since I’ve run into him, I’m obligated to come over and check on him. Pray tell, what has happened between you and why do you feel the need to resolve it with violence?”Jimothy stared at Candice while she stood with her back facing him. The look in his eyes was conflicted.The men exchanged glances with each other and saw a hint of astonishment in one another’s eyes.The man at the front of the group, who was likely their leader, said, “We just get paid to do this, lady. You should stay out of it.”When Candice heard his advice which also sounded like a threat, she did not intend to back down at all. Instead, she asked him, “Oh? How much did you get for this? I’ll pay you double. I just told you that this guy works for us, so I have to intervene.”The leader started laughing, and so did the men behind him.

Ivan was beside Candice.The second the waiter took the picture, Ivanka and Michael exchanged glances inadvertently.

    The call was soon answered, but the person who picked up was not Rosie. It was Mrs. Ruth.“Ms. Lane, you finally called! Mdm. Barkworth will be over the moon when she wakes up!” Mrs. Ruth sounded quite excited as she spoke.Ivanka smiled and asked, “Is Grandma resting now?”“Yeah, she hasn’t had a good rest after learning that you’d be kidnapped. Once you were safe, she finally allowed herself to rest.”Ivanka nodded and told Mrs. Ruth to take good care of Rosie. She later said that she and Micheal would visit Rosie soon.With that, she hung up the phone.Meanwhile, she also reflected upon herself.Rosie had gotten old, yet Ivanka always made her worry. From that moment on, Ivanka would consider the consequences before making any decision. It was not only for the sake of herself, but the important people in her life, who also cared about her.As she contemplated this, Ivanka inevitably thought of the gathering. It would be quite fun.Before they were about to get off work, San

    Coco practically ran out crying.Candice glanced at Ivanka worriedly and asked, “Will something bad happen to her?”Ivanka was not concerned at all. “What could possibly happen? She is an adult. Even if something bad happens, she has to bear the consequences of her own action.”Hearing that, Candice no longer fretted over the matter.She was not really worried about Coco. She was just afraid that something would happen to Coco, and Ivanka would be blamed for it.But Ivanka had made a good point. Candice did not want to trouble herself with Coco’s matters. It would only be an unnecessary emotional burden to her.Everyone in the office began discussing the progress of their project.Perhaps it was because Ivanka had made an example of Coco, the other employees became especially energized and diligent during their discussion.They were even more focused than before, since they were all afraid that Ivanka would treat them harshly as well.Hence, they were particularly efficient.

    “Why don’t we leave now so that you can deal with this matter, Ms. Ivanka?”The director of the project department, who was perceptive and shrewd, planned to leave right then. Ivanka shook her head and signaled everyone to sit down.They were all uneasy, and they kept giving Coco weird looks.Two people had dared speak to Ivanka like that in the past—Ferris and Mandy.But those two were no longer with the company.At the thought of those people, the project department staff began looking at Coco with pity.However, Coco could not care less. All she wanted was to make a fuss.She wanted to see how shameless Ivanka could be.Unruffled, Ivanka stared at her. She did not get angry and seemed rather affable as she asked, “Tell me what upset you. Have we falsely accused you of something you didn’t do?”Before Coco said anything, Ivanka added cruelly, “Oh, I forgot that you aren’t familiar with the protocol here, so you have no idea what you did wrong, right?”Coco paled.

    Candice was momentarily stunned by his answer. She was a little offended.“Then why did you come to my office for this conversation?” Jimothy’s grin was mischievous. “To prove your company’s HR is blind, and you just lost a great talent. That’s all.”With that, Jimothy stood up, dusted off his sleeves dramatically, and turned to leave.“Your resume!” Candice called after him.Jimothy waved dismissively without looking back. “Keep it. Enjoy reading it. And don’t let an incompetent HR handle your interviews again.”Candice stood there for a moment and processed the scene before an involuntary chuckle escaped her lips. This one had personality.Regardless, the incident served as a wake-up call for Candice.It became glaringly clear that Coco was not only incompetent but also prone to overestimating her abilities.Before the task was assigned, she had the chance to decline. Candice had given her the opportunity and explicitly asked if she could handle it. Yet, Coco confidentl

    The college student finally believed her and walked toward Candice.On the other hand, Coco seemed guilty and was desperate to prevent it. “He has no respect for our company! Are you really going to hire someone like him who won’t follow orders?” Coco’s tone was sharp. Her finger trembled as she pointed at the young man.She scanned the room for backup in hopes that the people who had been flattering her earlier would speak up in her defense.Unfortunately, no one stepped forward.Those who flattered Coco only did so out of respect for Ivanka. Yet Candice had a close relationship with Ivanka and was the company’s vice president.The gap between a vice president versus an intern was as vast as night and day.Anyone with common sense knew where to align themselves.Coco felt a mix of despair and resentment.Candice ignored her entirely. Why Ivanka was so wary of someone as clueless as this was beyond her comprehension.Coco was simply dumb.Without wasting another thought o

    However, reality proved she had worried for nothing.Candice had called her over merely to ask if she had the most basic professional knowledge and whether she could handle the afternoon’s interview.Coco let out a deep sigh of relief before patting her chest confidently and assuring Candice she was more than capable.Knowing Coco came from the mountains, Candice was naturally skeptical, so she asked again, “Are you sure?”Coco thought to herself that it was just an interview. All she needed to do was just ask the candidates some questions. They could just choose someone who wrote the resume well.Not wanting to embarrass herself in front of Michael’s cousin, Coco pretended to be confident and accepted the task.Candice was half-doubtful, yet she still gave her instructions and let her go.However, Coco’s firm assurance eventually led to trouble....“Your company must be a joke to hire someone like you for HR.

    Word quickly spread within the HR department. After learning about Coco’s connection to Ivanka, some colleagues were vying to curry favor with her.Although some observant individuals noticed that the relationship between Coco and Ivanka was not as harmonious as it seemed, it did not deter the opportunists. Relentless flattery and attention poured in.One moment, a male coworker would offer to grab her food while placing his own lunch order. Next, a female coworker would ask if she wanted to order some coffee too.At first, Coco was caught off guard and politely declined. However, as she realized their intentions were purely self-serving, she began to accept their gestures without hesitation.By midday, Coco had become the department’s little queen. Ironically, as an intern, she should have been the one fetching coffee, running errands and collecting mail. Instead, she had colleagues practically lining up to do those tasks for her.Coco quickly assembled her own little e
