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
Love Mission: Pursuing My Stunning Ex-Wife Chapter 84 She Would Not Show Him Any Mercy!
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
Love Mission: Pursuing My Stunning Ex-Wife Chapter 85 Just Wait and See In Court
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
Love Mission: Pursuing My Stunning Ex-Wife Chapter 88 That Point Was Too Tricky To Refute!
“Third, after the defendant developed the project, they had no regard for…”“Fourth…”“Fifth…”Ivanka laid out her arguments against the five points coherently. Every argument was well-founded. Even Michael’s expression stiffened for a second.On the other hand, Ivan had turned a little pale.He had been treating Ivanka like any other lawyer, but everything she had just said was spot on and hit him square in the gut!If he was unable to refute her five points, the certainty of victory had gradually shifted to an equilibrium.Jonah gave a small smile. She had not lied to him at all.Ivanka did not look at Michael from start to finish. She returned her gaze to the judge after she finished speaking with Ivan. “We have clarified the five points mentioned earlier. After that, I’ll make a statement about the lawsuit filed against my client.”The judge was surprised. He was clearly puzzled by Ivanka’s request, but given the situation, he still nodded. “Please proceed.”Ivanka nodded
Love Mission: Pursuing My Stunning Ex-Wife Chapter 89 Refute Each of The Arguments He Made
All the spectators were concerned about Ivan. The main thing was that Ivan was a well-known lawyer. It would be embarrassing for him if he was defeated by Ivanka, who had no footprint in the legal industry.Ivan finally responded with a third point while the crowd was still waiting.“Third, Ms. Lane’s claim does not fall within the scope of today’s appeal. According to...”Ivanka’s lip curled slightly. His counter-argument to her third point was a little shaky, but it was still acceptable.She was now regarded as a celebrity. Michael’s gaze remained fixed on her. He never once looked away.Ivanka, on the other hand, never looked at him. It was as if all she cared about was winning the case.“Plaintiff, please speak.”Ivanka was still rattling off her claims without pausing. The spaces in front of Jonah and herself were still devoid of notes. She spoke with such assurance that her statements were quite compelling.At that juncture, Ivan did not believe he could continue holding
Love Mission: Pursuing My Stunning Ex-Wife Chapter 90 What’s Mine Is Yours
She spoke slowly and with a calm expression.She did not waste a single unnecessary word, and she did not speak any less than usual.The courtroom was pin-drop silent. Even the judge, some auditors, and the staff were taken aback.Ivan’s fists were clenched.He abruptly stopped speaking at that moment, realizing that no matter what he said, he could no longer salvage the situation.As he looked at Michael, his expression darkened. “I apologize. I gave it my all.”Michael pursed his lips and remained silent. It was a total defeat.Ivanka only smiled briefly after the judge announced the final verdict. She turned to face Jonah. “How are you going to thank me?”Jonah chuckled. “Can I give myself to you?”Their microphones had remained turned on. Ivanka spoke in hushed tones, so no one else could hear her clearly.However, Jonah appeared to have done it on purpose. Everyone had heard him with crystal clarity!Michael’s stare was so cold that Jonah would have died if looks could

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,
Love Mission: Pursuing My Stunning Ex-Wife Chapter 2247 You Sure Have A Lot Of Attitude
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
Love Mission: Pursuing My Stunning Ex-Wife Chapter 2246 The Wealth Gap Is A Major Factor
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
Love Mission: Pursuing My Stunning Ex-Wife Chapter 2243 How Could He Think Like That?
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
Love Mission: Pursuing My Stunning Ex-Wife Chapter 2242 You Are Not An Invalid!
“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. I know. A
