They were really after Ivanka’s life! “Be careful!” Michael was talking. Of course, Ivanka had noticed. When the first person came over, she had already turned around and grabbed his arm. She lifted a leg and went straight for the man’s second head. Crash! This time, Ivanka was merciless. The man wailed. The person who followed behind them to kill Ivanka felt tension below his waist. Subconsciously, he slowed down a bit more. Ivanka’s high heels stepped on his wrist where he held the dagger. He was already in pain. When the sharp heel stomped right on the veins on the back of his hand. He broke out in a cold sweat from the pain. At that moment, Ivanka had already picked up his dagger. Michael’s gaze shifted. This was the first time he had seen Ivanka in action. He quickly finished the man up and went to help, but he did not expect several more men to come up. Wyatt Perry was panicking from the side! At least this area was under his jurisdiction. However, he did
Pfft! The blade drew blood! Michael’s pupils constricted violently! His expression changed drastically! Evan also panicked. Ivanka stifled a grunt and slapped the man away. She endured the pain and exerted her strength. Instantly, she removed herself from the man’s dagger! Just now, she had sensed the danger and dodged from letting it hit her vitals. The man’s dagger pierced the edge of her body. It was next to her heart and missed her bones. But… It was still a deep wound, and blood was already flowing out! “Damn it!” Michael’s voice was full of fury. When he saw the man’s dagger all stained with Ivanka’s blood, Michael sent him flying with a kick! He immediately came to Ivanka’s side with a rare gentleness. “Hold on!” Ivanka sucked in a slight breath and said in a low voice. “It did not hit my vitals. It’s fine.” Any other girl might have cried out uncontrollably or even fainted. But not Ivanka. Not only did she keep her voice as usual, but she was also able to
Other women would have cried out of pain or acted fragile if they were in such a situation. However, Ivanka did none of it. Everything was as normal. To her, it was like these were all small matters. She did not show a single sign of being dependent on anyone. After treatment, Ivanka even stood up. She did not seem bothered by the wound. The doctor also looked at her oddly. “Ms. Ivanka, you are the strongest woman I’ve ever met.” Ivanka smiled. “Thank you.” “You’re very welcome. This is my job. Don’t let your wound come in contact with water. Change your medicine daily. No strenuous exercise. Avoid spicy foods. Eat properly.” Ivanka nodded. “Alright.” Just like that, the group walked outside together. Just as Michael was about to come over and pick her up, Ivanka immediately said, “I’m fine, I can walk by myself.” Michael glimpsed at her heels. They were about ten centimeters tall. He did not bother to say anything to her and picked her up into a princess hug. Ivan
Ivanka was stunned and slightly flattered. There were even a few moments of discomfort in his eyes.Was this Michael? After a pause, she said softly, “Anything is fine.” Michael frowned. When he saw her being so strong and not the slightest sense of dependence on people around her, he surprisingly felt a little annoyed. Without speaking, he stepped outside and closed the door to her room behind him. Evan was in the living room. He did not leave. He was still waiting for Michael’s orders. Michael walked to the sofa and suddenly took out a cigarette. Evan looked a little stunned. Michael seldom smoked. He saw that he had already taken out his lighter but as he was about to light his cigarette, his movements suddenly stopped and he swiftly took it away. Evan’s eyes paused slightly. He was afraid that the smoke would enter Ivanka’s room and harm her. Evan lowered his gaze slightly and did not speak. Michael, on the other hand, said softly, “Go prepare something nutr
Michael’s expression seemed to grow even colder. “How much longer do you intend to hold out for?!” When she heard the fury in his tone, Ivanka looked at him with some surprise. “What’s wrong with you?” Michael instantly frowned. He also wanted to know what was wrong with him! Ivanka did not see why, and said calmly, “I’ll be fine on my own. You can go out.” As she said that, Ivanka had already gotten up. Her movements were so smooth. If Michael had not seen her originally fair and flawless shoulder bloody and marred with his own eyes, he would have suspected that Ivanka was never injured at all. She could eat easily with one hand. Michael even felt that if he continued to stay, it would look like he was just overstaying his welcome. He did not say a single word and got up to leave. Goodness knew how irritated and cranky he was on the inside right now. Ivanka looked at his back. Although she was not surprised that he was so temperamental, she found him gloomier than befo
Ivan snorted coldly. “Yeah, right, sure. Why were you so worried if you weren’t interested? Why would you send Sandy over to care for her if you weren’t interested? Put up a real act and let me see that you aren’t interested, then. You’re still so stubborn even, yet you are still caring for her from behind the scenes. Do you take me for an idiot?!” Ivan was also a bit annoyed at this moment because Michael had called Sandy away. He was a bit furious. Many people could take care of Ivanka. Why did it have to be Sandy? Michael stared sharply at him. His eyes seemed to show his displeasure as well. But Ivan was not afraid and sneered. “Look at you! Stay single then! You don’t deserve Ivanka!” After saying that, Ivan did not want to talk to Michael anymore. He turned and walked out the door. If he continued to stay, he was afraid that he would quarrel with Michael! Michael’s expression was chilling. After Ivan left, he sat quietly on the sofa alone again. At that moment, he lit
Seeing that Ivanka had opened her eyes, Sandy smiled and said, “I knew that you’d wake up any minute now. My timing is really accurate. Come on, drink this soup. You need to nourish your body!” Ivanka lifted the quilt off her body. Sandy felt a little anxious. “Don’t! Let me help you up! You’re a patient now! You should at least let yourself have a moment of weakness!” Ivanka was speechless. Just as Sandy finished speaking, Ivanka had sat up as usual. It was as if she was not injured in the slightest. “Are you acting tough in front of me and pretending that you aren’t injured badly?” Sandy judged Ivanka. Ivanka burst out laughing helplessly. “No.” Sandy instantly sighed in annoyance. “You just love putting on a tough front. You should be a little more delicate.” Just as she said this, Michael returned. But Ivanka and Sandy were inside the bedroom, and the door was closed. They did not hear the soft sounds from the outside. Michael paused in place. He stood in place w
Sandy frowned. She turned to Ivanka and could not help but ask, “Exactly who attacked you? Were you injured by mistake or did someone target you?” “I don’t know for the time being. “Ivanka grinned. “Go back first. Don’t worry. I’ll be fine.”Ivanka did not tell Sandy the truth. She did not want Sandy to worry about her. Sandy sighed in resignation. “Okay. Take a good rest. Reach out to me for any problems. I’ll come over at any time. Michael isn’t reliable!” Ivanka chuckled. “Alright.” Sandy then left hesitantly and worriedly. After she returned home, she saw Ivan sitting on the couch and looking grim. Sandy frowned and questioned him, “Why didn’t you tell me about Iv getting hurt?!” Ivan glanced at her coldly. “She stopped me from telling you.” “And you listened to her?! She needs someone to take care of her, and Michael can’t do that. What would happen if they get another mole when you’re trying to get someone to take care of her?!” Ivan frowned. “She’s a grown-up.
