Chapter 858 I Only Take Orders From Michael

Author: Deer
“Iv, why aren’t you taking the food? You need to eat more, you’re too thin now.”

Ivanka smiled. “I am eating, Grandma.”

Rosie looked at her with concern and said resignedly, “You have to eat enough. Don’t skip meals just to maintain your figure. Besides, you’re slim enough! You need to eat more to put some weight back on!”

Ivanka nodded with a smile. “Okay, I’ll eat more.”

Ivanka was not underweight. It was quite standard. However, in Rosie’s eyes, she looked thin enough to make her worry.

The dinner was quickly over. Samuel remained silent the whole time, but at the end of the dinner, he looked at Ivanka and sternly said, “Ms. Ivanka, come to my study later. There are some things I want to ask you about.”

Samuel’s tone was harsh and authoritative. What he said to Ivanka sounded more like a command than a request.

Moreover, he addressed Ivanka as “Ms. Ivanka,” indicating his attitude.

Ivanka remained indifferent. It did not bother her, but before she could respond, Rosie glared

    Besides, if she persuaded Rosie to let her follow Samuel to the study, Rosie would surely defend her again. Then, there would be another big argument between Rosie and Samuel.It was better for her to confront Samuel directly. Let Samuel vent his displeasure on her so that it would not affect Rosie and Samuel’s relationship.Michael’s mood seemed to lighten further. Ivanka’s sharp tongue, which was usually directed at him, was now aimed at Samuel. He was relieved someone was sharing the burden with him.Samuel gritted his teeth as his gaze shifted to Michael. His eyes were filled with displeasure and insinuation. They seemed to express something. “So, this is the woman you chose? This is the woman you want to protect?”Michael looked back at Samuel calmly. His gaze held the answer. “Weren’t you the one who chose her back then?”Samuel could not deny that.Samuel immediately turned his head away and broke eye contact.Back then, the marriage alliance simply seemed inevitable beca

    Rosie’s expression was cold. She would not even look at him.Meanwhile, Ivanka and Michael turned to Rosie. Ivanka spoke up directly. “Are you okay?”She reached for Rosie’s wrist. Her fingertips casually felt her pulse.Rosie patted the back of Ivanka’s hand with her other hand. Her anger from before dissipated. She looked at Ivanka with affection and said, “I’m fine. Don’t worry about me.”Ivanka nodded slightly. She loosened her grip on Rosie’s wrist but did not let go. She smiled as she said, “Okay, that’s good.”Michael, on the other hand, looked at Rosie and asked, “Why is your heart acting up? You didn’t sleep well?”Rosie immediately shot a displeased glance at Samuel, who was already looking dejected beside her, and said irritably, “It’s all your grandfather’s fault!”Samuel suddenly felt extremely wronged, but he did not dare say a word to retort.At that moment, he was like a completely different person compared to his earlier aggressive self.Ivanka found it a litt

    “Mr. Barkworth, we have a big problem!” Evan’s voice came through. It lacked its usual composure.Ivanka’s eyebrows twitched. She instinctively held her breath and paid attention.“What happened?” Michael’s magnetic voice remained calm.Evan seemed to regain some composure at Michael’s tone, but his nervousness was still evident as he spoke. “Our company secrets have been stolen!”Michael’s expression instantly turned icy. He said, “Look into it. Initiate the backup plan immediately.”“We’re already working on it, but the stolen information must have already been put to use.”Michael’s expression remained cold, but he did not say anything more.They had just left the old mansion and were at a crossroads. To the left led to the company, while the right led to Ivanka’s house.Michael chose to turn left without hesitation.Ivanka did not say anything. With Barkworth’s Group facing such a crisis, she would not demand him to take her home, especially since her car was the only tran

    The technician was startled. His face turned pale. Why was Mr. Barkworth staring at him like that? Was he suspecting him?But he was innocent!However, before he defended himself, Evan had already walked over and said, “Give your seat to Ms. Lane.”The technician reacted out of reflex and quickly got up from his seat, even though he was still in a daze. Why did Evan ask him to give up his seat again?What was Ivanka going to do in front of the computer?With that in mind, everyone turned to Ivanka. In the next second, they saw her typing away on the keyboard.They all looked up out of reflex and saw strings and strings of white codes on the computer screen. It was a startling sight.Everyone in this office was an IT expert, and their skills were top-tier.But at that moment, when some of them saw the codes she wrote, they thought they might have wasted all those years studying and accomplished nothing. They could not even understand the codes, let alone fathom the speed at whic

    Everyone’s eyes became even more conflicted. None of them spoke a word. They dared not discuss the possibility of Ivanka being Black-eyed Susan.Michael would end them.His relationship with Ivanka was complicated. Even if they had gotten a divorce, their lives were still entwined. It gave everyone the impression that they would get back together anytime soon, and Ivanka would be Mrs. Barkworth once again.Of course, the IT team already saw her as Mrs. Barkworth.As their thoughts wandered, Michael looked at them expressionlessly. “Keep maintaining the security system. If any issues arise, inform me right away.”Everyone quickly agreed. Michael glanced at Ivanka and left silently.Naturally, Ivanka would not stay behind. She followed him out of the room.They had spent more than three hours writing codes. The IT staff did not get bored during the wait. On the contrary, they were engrossed. Even if the codes confused them, they wanted to learn something new.After leaving the

    When the two of them showed up together, all eyes in the restaurant fell on them. Some people already held up their phones. Everyone seemed surprised.They did not expect that they would run into Michael and Ivanka here!How lucky!Back then, these two often appeared on the TV screen, and they looked very close. Many thought that they were a match made in heaven. Even though they had split up, everyone still hoped they would get back together.Seeing them, the servers were astounded and ecstatic. They fought over the chance to serve Michael and Ivanka.The two of them picked a random table and sat down. They did not ask for a private room.They sat opposite each other. The server was holding a menu. Knowing that Ivanka would not order anything, Michael simply ordered a few dishes. The server was mesmerized by his charming, magnetic voice and thinking that her ovaries were about to explode.Ivanka pursed her lips. Out of the four items he had ordered, three were dishes she quite

    Nobody wanted to miss a chance to share a space with Michael and Ivanka.Soon, the two of them returned to the car. Neither of them said anything on their way back. Once they arrived at Ivanka’s house, Michael did not leave. He allowed her into the house instead.Ivanka frowned slightly. “You want a glass of water?”In other words, she was telling him to leave after drinking the water.But Michael said calmly, “I need to crash at your place tonight.”Ivanka was flabbergasted.Since when had he become so shameless just to protect his business interest?It was so uncharacteristic of him.However, before she said anything, Michael ignored her reaction and went upstairs right away.He even picked the bedroom next to hers.Ivanka was speechless.She felt agitated for no reason and wanted to kick him out. But Michael was way too shameless, and she had no idea what to do with him. Inhaling deeply, she eventually went back to her room, took a shower, and went to bed.When she woke

    Another reporter said, “Judging from your reaction, you do know that Ms. Ivanka can write codes, yes? And she is good at it, too.”Chiara immediately said, “I don’t know what you’re saying. My cousin doesn’t know these things. What I mean when I said she is good with computers, I was referring to the basic things. She doesn’t know anything more complicated than that. I’m unaware of what is happening out there, but please don’t blame it on her.”Chiara acted like a protective older sister and refused to say anything more to the media.But her behavior had inadvertently told everyone that Ivanka was indeed an IT expert as well as a great hacker!Once the reporters got the hint, they stopped coming after her. They could tell by her facial expression. Sometimes, an ambiguous reaction was way more telling than a straight answer.They all asked Chiara a couple more questions, which sounded like traps. But she seemed wary and guarded. Her reluctance to divulge anything made the underlyin

    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.
