Chapter 1931 Watching A Movie

An unusual feeling lingered.Accepting this bouquet of roses felt like agreeing to Michael’s request. It was as if she had agreed to a date.Ivanka felt pressure on that thought.She said, “If these roses are given purely as a gesture of friendship, I’ll accept them. But Mr. Barkworth, if these mean something else, I’m afraid I must decline.”Ivanka was straightforward and honest.Until she had sorted out her feelings for him and whether or not to take their relationship further, she did not want to do anything that might cross boundaries or lead Michael on.A relationship that began in ambiguity would inevitably end the same way.She did not want that.Michael’s disappointment was evident, though fleeting. He chose not to dwell on it.Despite his slight sadness, he smiled calmly and said, “It’s a gift between friends. Please accept it without any worries.”Michael chose to change the subject.He said casually, “I bought movie tickets. Want to go together?”Ivanka, still ho

Chapter 1932 Be Yourself

He looked genuinely content, so much so that Ivanka could not find the right words to say for a moment.“Actually, you don’t have to do this.”Michael was proud, accomplished, and always carried himself with an air of invincibility.Though he clearly did not know much about dating, not even his assistant Evan had any advice. So, in desperation, he had resorted to scouring the internet for date ideas.Ivanka saw through it, but she chose not to call him out.There was a certain warmth in being cared for and liked so earnestly, even if it was awkwardly executed.Still, she did not want the usually untouchable Michael to lose sight of himself in the process.Ivanka’s smile softened. Then the amusement in her expression slowly faded away.Ivanka took the plush toy from Michael’s hands and handed it to a nearby child who had been waiting impatiently for a turn at the claw machine. His eyes had been glued longingly to the toys inside.The child let out a joyful cheer upon receiving

Chapter 1933 Settlement

The owner brought over a plate of freshly grilled barbecue.Everything looked delicious and tempting: cheese-stuffed mushrooms, grilled zucchini, roasted potatoes, lamb skewers, and bacon-wrapped shrimp.Ivanka handed the disposable cutleries to Michael.Michael hesitated for a moment before taking them. He glanced at Ivanka.She gestured toward the platter of barbecue. “Sandy and I found this little gem of a barbecue joint. Give it a try. It’s surprisingly clean for a place like this. There’s no greasy mess everywhere.”She had wiped the table earlier because she thought Michael might not be used to this kind of setting.Michael looked around and took in the surroundings. She was right.There were no drunk men shouting, clinking glasses, or overly loud, rowdy patrons.Nor was it coated in grease, with trash and leftovers strewn all over the floor.It was, surprisingly, quite tidy.Michael nodded. He picked up a piece of grilled lamb and placed it in his mouth.It was noth

Chapter 1934 Injury

The next morning, when Ivanka woke up, she found herself lying in her bed at home. For a moment, she was dazed.As her memory clicked into place, she recalled that Michael had brought her back.Thinking about everything that happened the day before, Ivanka rubbed her head and paused. Instead of getting up immediately, she turned her gaze toward the window.Sunlight streamed in. It made her squint against its brightness.It was not until she heard Michael’s voice from outside the room that she snapped back to reality.“Are you awake? If you’re up, come down for breakfast.”Ivanka responded with a soft “okay,” tossed the blanket aside, slid into her slippers, and went to the bathroom to freshen up.When she arrived at the dining room, Michael had already laid out a full spread of food.They were all her favorites.Michael noticed her coming down and pulled out a chair for her.“Have a seat.”Ivanka thanked him and sat down.She glanced at the table filled with food that looke

Chapter 1935 The Lawsuit

Michael’s twinkling eyes seemed to say, “You have to take responsibility for me.”Ivanka awkwardly averted her gaze. She scratched her head as she muttered, “Sorry, that was rude of me.”Michael gave a weak smile and brushed it off as if it did not matter.His appearance resembled that of a delicate beauty in distress.Ivanka bit her lip and seemed lost in thought.“You don’t need to blame yourself too much. This isn’t your fault.” Michael tried to comfort Ivanka and lighten her mood.Ivanka did not respond right away. Instead, she suddenly patted Michael’s shoulder. “Since you’re injured, you should skip today’s court hearing.”Today was the official trial date for Ferris and Mandy.Michael was initially supposed to accompany Ivanka. His injury acting up was not part of his plan, but since it happened, he thought he might as well take advantage of it.He wanted to gain some of her sympathy.However, such was not the result he had in mind.Michael immediately sat up straig

Chapter 1936 Conciliation Failed

Ivanka considered it as saying hello.However, Jolie was clearly unimpressed. Her sharp and unrelenting gaze bore into Ivanka like a predator locking onto its prey.It was not entirely surprising. After all, they had already fallen out before entering the courtroom.Before the trial began, Jolie had tried to dissuade Ivanka.“If you withdraw the charges now, the Carlova family will be in your debt. In other words, you’ll have our backing.” Jolie had cornered Ivanka in the mediation room for one last attempt to reach a settlement outside court.Over the years, while the Carlova family’s growth had stagnated, their influence remained significant. After all, even a withered camel was larger than a horse. Many would still consider it a privilege to owe them a favor.Ivanka was not surprised by Jolie’s attempt.However, compared to gaining their favor, she was more determined to see Ferris behind bars.Having come so far, there was no turning back. Doing so would betray the hardsh

Chapter 1937 Changed Sides

Ivanka glanced at Jolie across the courtroom.It must have been her arrangement.Making sure Mandy was well taken care of in prison was likely one of the incentives to persuade Mandy to take the blame willingly.The other benefits were nothing more than money, power, and a promise to look after Mandy’s family. Simple enough.Ivanka’s gaze landed on Mandy. Her lips curled into a mysterious smile.She had better not disappoint her.The moment their eyes met, Mandy instinctively looked away.So, she was feeling guilty, huh?Ivanka smiled.The court session officially began. The prosecuting lawyer on Ivanka’s side presented their arguments.Their words were impassioned and backed by solid evidence.However, when it came to the murder charges, the evidence primarily pointed at Mandy with no direct connection implicating Ferris.Even the testimony from the staff member Mandy had approached confirmed only Mandy’s involvement.The only incriminating detail against Ferris was sec

Chapter 1938 Are You Serious?

What of it?These people seemed to forget who Ivanka was and what she was capable of.Ivanka’s fingers tapped rhythmically on the table. There was a faintly mocking smile on her lips. “Well, it seems you might be disappointed. He’s not my representative.”The very next moment, Sandy strode in from outside the courtroom. With a confident smirk, she gave Ivanka a wink. “Sorry, the traffic was horrendous, but I’m here now.”While Ivanka could not represent herself in court, her best friend certainly could. Sandy’s brilliance was the talk of Boston. She had built a reputation on delivering victories in seemingly impossible cases. And for those who thought their earlier maneuvering would ensure Ferris and Mandy escaped sentencing, or that Jolie would remain unscathed? Dream on.The net was tightening, and it was the perfect time to reel it in.Sandy presented her arguments with precision and backed them up with substantial evidence. Every word she spoke as a gold-standard lawyer left

Chapter 1939 Kill Three Birds With One Stone

Michael pressed his lips together and shot Ivan a glare. “Do you think Ivanka would leave with Sandy if I already won her back?”“So you haven’t? Seriously, what have you been doing all this time? You and Ivanka disappeared for such a long time and returned together, yet you still haven’t gotten her back?”Ivan stared at Michael in disbelief while Michael’s expression turned chillingly grim. There was a gloomy, foreboding air about him.Ivan immediately realized what he had done.He had touched a sore spot!Michael snapped back immediately. “Well, I hadn’t seen you for a while. Have you gotten together with Sandy yet?”Ivan was speechless.Michael rolled his eyes at him. Since Ivan had not gotten his girl, who gave him the right to mock Michael?Without saying another word, Michael started walking and left Ivan behind. Ivan caught up to him. “The ladies have left, but we can go grab a bite. I haven’t eaten, and we haven’t been hanging out lately. You should treat me to a meal,

Chapter 1940 Anyone But Your Ex!

Sandy did not oppose Ivanka dating anyone after establishing her career. If Jonah was not injured, Sandy would approve of their relationship given how much he cared about Ivanka.However, Jonah was currently in a wheelchair, and Margaret loathed Ivanka. As for Michael, it did not matter that his family all wanted him to remarry Ivanka.After all, Michael had been a jerk to her in the past.Ivanka shook her head. Meanwhile, the waiter came over to serve them coffee.He placed each cup in front of each customer.Ivanka lifted hers and took a small sip. Then she said, “When I came back, Grandma and Candice helped me stabilize the situation at the company. I’m grateful to them. I cleaned up Lane’s Group by taking care of Ferris and making an example of him so the other shareholders wouldn’t dare try anything funny. There’s also our collaboration with Sadler’s Group. It’s time to kickstart it.”If she had not fallen into the sea and ended up on the island, their companies would have s
