Hanson was still staring at Ivanka. He noticed her faint smile as she said, “I’m sorry.”“I won’t accept your apology. You have to make it up to us!” Sandy purposely said with pride.Anna collected herself and nodded cooperatively. “Yes, we won’t accept apologies without actions.”Ivanka pretended to helplessly say, “What should I do? I have nothing to give you as compensation.”“Who says? Is it that difficult? You just need to take care of our dinner every day!”Anna burst out laughing. “Stop going too far. Aren’t you ashamed of asking for dinner every day?”“Don’t you want to eat? Shouldn’t we be on the same side now?”Hanson smiled in silence.Anna hesitated for a while. As she picked up her fork and got some food, she grinned and said, “Sandy’s right. We can’t forgive you so soon. Let’s do this. You have to cook dinner for us next month! We’ll forgive you once you become poor.”Sandy sighed helplessly. “One month is really short. What if we’re busy and we can’t come?”“Ha
However, Anna sneered. “What’s the point of taking the initiative? My parents are so obsessed with this. They insist that I marry into the family. They know that I’m against it, but they’re going ahead with it.”Anna grabbed the paper from Sandy before she sat up and wiped her tears. She cried and said, “I’ve been out for so long, but they never even called to check on me. Instead, they posted on Twitter. Do you think they would even care if I died?”“Don’t say that.” Ivanka held her hand and sternly said, “Marrying into the Wood family will not be good. Your father has no hesitation in sacrificing you just to collaborate with the Wood family.”“Yes, what else can I do now? I keep resisting, but I’ll still have to obediently get married in the end, right?”Sandy was extremely angry too. “Your father has really gone too far! I heard that the Wood family just looks good on the surface! They secretly do all kinds of things. Everyone should stay away from them because they only spell t
Ivanka nodded and directly assigned tasks to each of them. This time, Anna was smiling brightly. “Okay, I’ll go home now and admit my mistakes to my parents!”“I’ll pay Young Master Wood a visit!” Sandy quickly said.Ivanka smiled and nodded. “Okay, I’ll go to the woman.”Anna put down the toast and got up to leave, but Sandy stopped her. “Do you need to be in a hurry? Eat your breakfast first!”Ivanka chuckled. “Skipping breakfast isn’t good for the body. Sit down and eat.”Anna sat back down and finished her breakfast in a hurry. Then she wiped her mouth, picked up her bag, and rushed off. “I’ll go back first! I’m afraid that my father will do something again if I don’t get back. I’m leaving, Sis!”She was reckless, but that was just her character.Sandy could not help but chuckle, and she also finished her breakfast. “I’m going to see Young Master Wood now.”Ivanka nodded, but she was still a bit worried. “Do you really know Young Master Wood? If not, we can get someone else
Ivanka smiled. Without a word, she passed Yuliana a stack of photos. Yuliana frowned as she took them, and she soon saw how indecent they were. Her expression immediately changed. She quickly flipped through the photos but could not bear to go any further after flipping through half of them. She then threw the photos on the table. “This doesn’t prove anything!” Ivanka nodded. “You can choose not to believe what you’ve seen. Follow me somewhere tonight, and I’ll prove it to you. How does that sound?” Yuliana’s expression was extremely sour, and she subconsciously rejected Ivanka’s idea. “You’ve seen what’s been trending on Twitter, haven’t you? The Wood family and the Baldwin family are going to join in marriage. Anna knew Peter was a playboy and refused to marry him, but her father forced her into the marriage,” Ivanka said with a drawl. Yuliana frowned. “Peter told me that he doesn’t want to marry Anna, but his parents ordered him to. He’ll still try to fight back, thoug
Back home, Chiara was in a good mood. She sat on the couch and hummed a tune as she fiddled with her phone. Lyla was surprised to see her in this state. She sat down beside Chiara and asked, “Why are you in such a good mood today?” “Mom, I bought a very nice gift for Michael’s grandmother.” Lyla felt resigned. “Gosh, you’re hopeless. How are you so happy just because you’ve bought a nice gift?” “Of course it’s not entirely because of that!” “Then, what is it?” Chiara showed Lyla a photo of her gift and spoke with a smile, “Have a look at the gift. What do you think?” “Not bad!” Lyla nodded with satisfaction. “It looks luxurious and high-class. I’ve also heard that Michael’s grandmother is fond of gemstones.” Chiara chuckled. “I don’t know her preferences. I bought this thanks to Ivanka.” “What do you mean?” Lyla asked in puzzlement. Ivanka put her phone aside and replied with a grin, “When I was in the shopping mall earlier, I ran into Ivanka. I heard that she was t
Time passed as Ivanka and her group worked on their stuff. The four of them communicated via WhatsApp group chat. Sandy: I found Peter and chatted with him for a while. I told him everything. He’s very happy and even thinking about going through me to date Ann! Anna: Thanks! I told my family about it too. My father was really happy when he found out that I was willing to marry Peter. He’s been telling Peter about my strengths and weaknesses. My mother is treating me better too. I hope they’re being nice to me from the bottom of their hearts… Sandy: Don’t be so sentimental! Oftentimes, there are many things in this world that we can’t control. Your parents have their own troubles too. Stop thinking about them. We have to think for ourselves. Besides, things are working positively now, aren’t they? Anna: Yeah, I know. Ivanka: I’ve met with Yuliana. I’ll wait for her to meet me again at night. Anna: I’m worried. Are you sure she’ll meet you? After all, she plays the most imp
Yuliana was baffled when Ivanka removed the veneer board. “What is this?” “Come with me.” There was a staircase that led to an underground space before them. Yuliana was extremely surprised. She did not expect there to be a hidden place in such an empty and deserted area. Ivanka then proceeded down the staircase. Just as Yuliana started to follow her, she said, “Close the entrance with the veneer board.” Yuliana did as she was told. Their surroundings were pitch-black. Ivanka took out a torch light and switched it on. When they reached the final step, they continued to head straight down a dark and long path that could only fit two people side by side. Yuliana grew increasingly puzzled and wary. “Where exactly are you taking me?” Ivanka calmly replied, “I’m going to show you Peter’s life.” Yuliana’s expression changed slightly. But, since she was already there, she was not going to ask any further questions. After they walked another six hundred or seven hundred
Yuliana’s expression darkened. Ivanka glanced at her and calmly said, “This has happened many times. You can observe him from here. He won’t discover us for the time being.” Peter and his secretary continued to kiss each other. Yuliana’s expression turned red with rage, and she walked outside. Ivanka quickly followed her. Soon, they were outside the casino and on the empty land. Yuliana took another deep breath. Before she could get a word out, Ivanka said, “It’s inconvenient to talk here. Follow me.” They quickly left the area and got in the car. Only then did Ivanka speak again. “You’ve seen it yourself. What do you plan on doing next?” Yuliana closed her eyes and appeared to be composing herself. Then, she turned to Ivanka and sneered, “I believe you’ve snooped around and learned that I’m a jealous, vengeful person, am I right? If not, you wouldn’t have come to me.” Ivanka chuckled. “You’re very straightforward. In that case, let me get straight to the point. If you wa
