Ivanka looked at Chiara with a hint of a mocking smile on her lips.

“Do you think I heard her?”

Chiara’s eyes widened. But she was not shocked. She was too furious to speak.

Was there something wrong with Ivanka’s ears? How could she not hear Lyla?

Earlier on, Chiara had simply reminded her to reply.

But Ivanka dared to ask her a question instead. How could she be so shameless?

Just as Chiara wanted to say something, Lyla quickly chuckled. It sounded like a reminder to her daughter.

Deep down, Chiara was furious. But she gave a cold snort, suppressed her emotions, and fell silent.

Lyla tried to channel some emotion into her speech, and she said to Ivanka with resignation, “Iv, don’t overthink it. I know that you need to consider this matter. But the situation is a little urgent. Why don’t we resolve this in private?”

Theodore was pulling a long face the entire time. He remained in his seat without a word. He could not bring himself to beg for Ivanka’s mercy. He could only rely

    At that moment, Theodore could not describe his anger in words.But he still chose to suppress his anger. Once the server came in, he immediately ordered some food and sent them away.He, his family, and his guests were the only people left in the private room.Their conversation was interrupted earlier on. Theodore had to bring back the topic, or lest this meeting would be a waste of time.Besides, even though there were so many people in the room, they formed only two sides.Ivan and Michael were best friends, so he naturally sided with Ivanka. Sandy and Suki would of course defend her as well.Therefore, there was no need for Theodore and his family to hide things from these people. Ivanka would tell them everything after this meeting, anyway.After a moment of hesitation, Chiara turned to Ivanka and could not help saying, “Iv, no matter what happened between us, we were relatives, and blood is thicker than water. What happened this time has caught us by surprise. We have bee

    Lyla could not let this situation worsen. Besides, she ought to start the topic she wanted to discuss.If she could not clear their names, her family would not be able to execute their plan. She knew this. But everything should happen in order. Even if they did not bring up the subject, Ivanka eventually would.Lyla nudged Chiara’s foot under the table to remind her not to be impulsive.Back then, when their life was smooth sailing, Chiara could mask her emotions. However, ever since her family started facing a series of troubles, her temperament had changed drastically. She would have a meltdown every time something did not go her way.Lyla decided to lecture her daughter about this later.Inhaling deeply, Lyla looked at Ivanka again and said with concern, “Iv, the agreement will affect the fate of our whole clan. So we can’t do whatever you want us to do. But you mentioned that we hurt your father. That’s impossible!”There was mockery in Ivanka’s eyes. She said nothing. It was

    Theodore’s expression changed. “Miss McNeil, that’s not true.”Sandy snorted coldly. She wanted to mock him, but eventually decided against it and stayed quiet.Suki did not even bother to look at Theodore and his family. She turned to Ivanka with a gentle look on her face. “Your father has already long passed. Sometimes it only upsets you to bring them up again. Iv, why don’t we let this go?”Theodore was alarmed.Since Ivanka had come to meet him, it showed that she indeed wanted to know more about Fernando, and Theodore had made the right bet. But if people around her kept telling her to let it go, she might just give up.As expected, Ivanka nodded in agreement. “You’re right. The more I know, the sadder I’ll get. I’ll only miss him more.”Theodore and his family paled slightly. Before they said anything, Suki immediately nodded with a smile. “Yes, just let it be, and don’t dwell on the past. Your father would want you to be happy.”“Yeah! He’d have been upset to see you like

    Once again, the room was theirs.Ivanka’s patience had already worn out.Seeing that Lyla and Theodore kept refuting an irrefutable fact, she ignored them, picked up her cutlery, and started eating.Ivan was speechless and wondering how she managed to have an appetite after all this time. But he, too, began eating.Naturally, Sandy and Suki picked up their cutlery as well.They were here to grab a bite, after all.Theodore’s expression darkened. All this while, he never said it was okay for them to start eating.But they did that anyway, which was highly disrespectful. Did they not realize that they were in the middle of a discussion?Inhaling deeply, Theodore controlled his emotions and raised his glass at everyone else.“Since we’re already eating together, why don’t we have a drink too?”There was a polite smile on his lips. He acted like he was drinking with his business partners.But he did not expect that after he lifted his glass, only Lyla followed suit.The people

    Theodore shook his head and sighed as various emotions brewed within him. “It’s really—”“I don’t have time for your sentimentality. Just get straight to the point” interrupted Ivanka impatiently, which surprised Theodore.He thought Ivanka would resonate with him through this. He tried to stay composed but he was already simmering with anger. Lyla could sense that he was already too upset to speak. So, she quickly intervened, “Wait, Ivanka. Don’t be mad.”This time, she did not dare to waste her time beating around the bush and went straight to the point. “Before your dad passed away, he left us a message for you.”Ivanka narrowed her eyes. Before Fernando passed away, he had also spoken to Michael.Did he also say something to them?She frowned. Could Fernando also have told them to tell her not to take revenge when she learned the truth?!Ivanka’s expression turned colder. She seemed to have figured out something. Theodore and the rest had no idea what was on her mind. He

    Ivanka subconsciously bit her lip. She was struggling to contain her sadness and maintain her composure.Whenever she thought of her father, she could not control her emotions because she always felt indebted to him. Had it not been for her past obsession with a love that should not have happened in the first place, she and her father would not have ended up in their current unfortunate situation.If she had prioritized her family more back then, things would not have deteriorated to such dire straits.The recording continued playing.Chiara felt satisfaction and relief seeing Ivanka distressed. Until now, Ivanka had always seemed aloof and stoic.Chiara longed to see Ivanka in pain and could finally witness it. She took a deep breath as she intently watched Ivanka. She did not want to miss any of her emotional reactions.“Iv, honestly, I hadn’t planned on leaving you this recording, but I worried you’d feel down without memories of me. So, I kept this recording with Theodore. I

    Sandy felt so disgusted seeing Theodore’s pretentious facade that she let out a cold snort.“Iv, dear. Goodbye. I love you.”Those were his final words.Her heart wrenched with pain, but Ivanka tried to rein in her emotions and not show them too prominently.Lyla and the others waited, hoping Ivanka would speak up. As moments passed in silence, Lyla finally spoke with hesitation. She said softly, “Iv, I know you’re hurting inside. But your father is already gone. You...”Before she could finish her sentence, Ivanka shot her a sharp gaze. Lyla was startled. Ivanka’s intense gaze cut off her words.Ivanka’s icy gaze was filled with hostility. This terrified Lyla.Theodore, Lyla, and Chiara panicked instantly. They were unsure of what to do next.Ivanka kept looking at them before letting out a cold laugh. “My father is already gone, you say?”Lyla’s heart skipped a beat. Oh no... did she just say the wrong thing?Theodore’s expression shifted. He was about to say something, b

    Chiara immediately stood up and anxiously approached Ivanka.She quickly grabbed Ivanka’s hand when Ivanka reached for the door handle.“Iv, where are you going? Are you just going to the washroom? You don’t need so many people to go with you. I’ll just go with you!”Ivanka shook off Chiara’s hand. She ignored Chiara and deliberately opened the door.“Ivanka!” Chiara’s eyes widened with frustration. “You can’t just leave! We’re not done talking! We’ve played the recording and shown you our sincerity. At least give us a response!”Chiara was on the verge of yelling about how unreasonable Ivanka was. She felt close to exploding with anger.Ivanka continued to ignore her. Lyla and Theodore hurried to catch up to her. Chiara grabbed Ivanka’s arm tightly and refused to let her take another step. She did not care if outsiders heard them because she was not saying anything crucial.Sandy could not stand watching this anymore. She stepped forward and forcefully pulled Chiara’s hand aw

    Ivanka frowned deeply. Michael was in a horrible state. He had been poisoned and suffered gunshots. He had a strong tolerance to medicine and pain. But it was his mental condition that caused him to fall into this state. Not being fully recovered also added to the burden. Ivanka gave him a white pill which she had formulated by herself. After that, she had the security guard carry Michael into her car. Then, she sent him to the hospital. They arrived at the emergency department. Xavier had finished attending to his patients. When he walked out of his office, he saw Michael being carried into the hospital. He then saw Ivanka beside Michael. Xavier frowned. His expression became tense, and he asked solemnly, “What’s happened to him?” “He’s weak and had previously been poisoned. Since you’re around, you can look after him.” Ivanka summarized Michael’s condition. After hearing Ivanka’s brief explanation, Xavier gave Michael a checklist and put him on a drip. After that,

    Since Jonah had come to this and Ivanka was not an ungrateful person, she nodded and gave her word. “Jonah, I’ll give this my all. Don’t worry. As long as it’s within my ability, I’ll help you.” Jonah had to be bound to the wheelchair at the moment. Since Ivanka had shared a similar experience when she took over Lane’s Group back then, she naturally figured out how wolfish and greedy his adversaries would be. Jonah was injured because of her. She swore to give her all to save him from whatever crisis he was facing. Jonah took advantage of this and asked, “What time are you coming tomorrow? I’ll have my assistant get ready.” Ivanka thought for a moment. “Tomorrow afternoon.” She needed to manage her company affairs during the first half of the day. Jonah was content upon hearing her answer. “Good. I’ll wait for you tomorrow.” “Okay.” Ivanka nodded before hanging up. When she returned to her office, she did not expect to see Michael sitting on the couch. She nearly jum

    There was only one possibility. Ivanka was calling somebody else. Michael wondered who could strike up such a long conversation with her. Sandy and Ivan had returned to the country. Ivanka’s besties were around her. Even if Ivanka deliberately approached Chiara, she could not possibly have so much to chat with Chiara. If Ivanka’s phone call was business related, there was no need to chat this long. Michael eliminated the possible reasons one by one. In the end, he thought of Jonah. Michael’s expression instantly turned as dark as thunderclouds. His gaze was dull and cold. Evan noticed it. He also saw the call record on Michael’s phone. Evan quickly persuaded Michael, “Mr. Barkworth, Ms. Lane could be tied up with her work, so she couldn’t answer your call. We could go to her workplace now.” Michael said nothing. He gave a cold glance at Evan. Evan got a shock. The next second, Michael turned around and left his office. Looking at Michael’s fading silhouette, Evan wi

    It was why Ivanka still came for Jonah in spite of her unpleasant experience with Margaret in the hospital last time. Jonah had been injured because of Ivanka. She came for him only. The other people did not matter to her. Jonah’s heart sank upon hearing her words. His expression tensed up. He could imagine the indifferent look on Ivanka’s face right at that moment. She had that expression on her face simply because he was never really important to her. Jonah was upset precisely because of her indifference to him. He wanted to say something to her but did not know how to begin. He was also not in the position to say that. It did not take long before Ivanka’s gentle but rather indifferent voice rang in his ears, “Jonah, don’t worry. I’ll treat your legs until they recover. Don’t run into any conflicts with your mom because of me.” Her words pulled Jonah’s wandering mind back into the present moment. He felt a heavy weight on his heart. “Iv, I trust you. You don’t need to

    Margaret became frustrated and grabbed Ivanka. She could not understand why Ivanka was fine while Jonah ended up in such a bad situation after the accident.Then, Jonah defended Ivanka. There was also all the talk about Ivanka’s treatment. Margaret was curious to see what kind of miracle medicine Ivanka could develop.In the end, Ivanka’s treatment did not work. Moreover, her relationship with Jonah, which had finally started to improve, was once again ruined because of Ivanka.Jonah scoffed. “Mom, I’m not an eight-year-old anymore. You’re saying all this because you want me to go along with your plans for an arranged date, right?”Margaret had not expected Jonah to guess her thoughts. She was about to insist on her point when Jonah spoke first. With a mocking smile, he said sarcastically, “Do you think anyone would date someone like me?”He had a point. But Laura might be one such person.However, Margaret did not like her. She would do anything to keep Laura from becoming her d

    “That’s because you want him to fall in love with you!” Margaret snapped.Ivanka chuckled softly. Her tone was edged with sarcasm. “Love? Does it really matter that much?”Margaret felt humiliated and furious. She pointed a finger at Ivanka’s face with a hostile expression. “If it doesn’t matter, why are you doing all this? Stop pretending, Ivanka!”Ivanka let out a bitter laugh. “Pretending? What am I pretending for? Is being divorced a crime? Margaret, you’re a woman too. How would you feel if someone accused you like this?”She hoped Margaret would take a moment to reflect. After all, she was Jonah’s mother, and Ivanka did not want their conflict to escalate.But Margaret was unmoved. Her glare turned colder, sharper, and filled with hatred.“You think I’ll just let this go?” Margaret said sharply. “If it weren’t for you, Jonah wouldn’t be in this mess! I meant every word I said, and nothing will change that.”To her, Ivanka was nothing more than someone scheming to use Jonah

    “Ivanka,” Margaret took a deep breath while trying to compose herself. When she looked at Ivanka again, her expression was calm. She said, “I don’t know how deep Jonah’s feelings for you run. What I fear most is that once he becomes fixated on you, that’s it. When he falls for someone, his heart won’t make room for anyone else. In that way, he’s just like his father.”Ivanka’s gaze wavered. She bit her lip and was unsure of what to say.“I beg you, don’t hurt Jonah anymore!” Margaret’s voice carried a note of desperation.Ivanka’s expression turned extremely complicated.There was a time when Jonah came to her only to use her. Back then, they were both using each other. It made things simple.But later, Jonah unexpectedly started talking about marriage. Perhaps it was to provoke Michael, or perhaps he simply wanted to keep her close because she was useful to him.At some point, though, it seemed Jonah had become serious about her. She could not pinpoint when it happened. Perhaps

    Jonah frowned in clear disagreement, but he stayed silent. Ivanka’s confident smile reassured him and made him trust her.Eventually, he let go of her wrist.Ivanka noticed Margaret putting on her shoes. She quickly followed, stepping outside just as Margaret was about to get into her car“Margaret,” she called out.Margaret frowned slightly and stood still.Since Jonah had not come out with Ivanka, she decided she could spare a moment to speak with her.She turned and looked at Ivanka coldly.Ivanka softened her tone. “Let’s take a walk.”Margaret did not respond, but her silence was enough of an agreement.They walked slowly around the edge of the mansion. The surrounding area was all part of the Sadler family estate.Margaret suppressed her anger and glanced at Ivanka before speaking in a composed tone, “Alright. What do you want to say?”Ivanka met her gaze briefly before looking ahead and said, “Do you know what will happen if Jonah’s coughing continues?”Margaret’s he

    Margaret glared at Ivanka and scoffed, “If there’s an issue, I’ll get another doctor to handle it. It’ll be anyone but you, Ivanka. Haven’t I made myself clear enough? I’ve told you this before.”She hated how Ivanka ignored her warnings and kept coming back to visit Jonah time and again. What if Jonah got too close to her and ended up ruining his reputation? If Jonah had not been here, Margaret would have been even harsher.Ivanka frowned as she met Margaret’s sharp gaze. “I’ve never tried to get close to Jonah like that. We’re just friends. I know I’m not good enough for him, so I’ve never even thought about it.”“You might not have, but he has!” Margaret snapped, raising her voice.“Mom!” Jonah’s expression darkened.Jonah was usually calm and polite. This was the first time Ivanka saw him looking so upset and was about to lose his temper.Ivanka’s eyes flickered with hesitation. She was unsure of what to say.Explaining Jonah’s coughing would do no good. Margaret would not
