Chiara said through her gnashed teeth, “I wish that day would come soon. But that person just keeps observing the situation and hasn’t attacked Ivanka. How much longer is she going to wait? Why isn’t Ivanka dead yet?!” “Ivanka will die eventually.” Lyla looked grim. Theodore and his family lose their appetite for food because of Chiara. Upon seeing the delicious dishes served on the table, Theodore took his cutlery. “Eat the food now. Don’t starve yourself. We need to save up energy and try to fight back against Ivanka. If we starve ourselves to death, we won’t get any chance to fight back against her. Lyla nodded and turned to Chiara. Lyla took Chiara’s cutlery and passed it to her. “Eat now.” Chiara bit the bottom of her lips. She wordlessly took the cutlery from Lyla. But, a phone call made them completely lose their appetite for food. The moment Theodore’s phone rang, he and his family frowned. Their expressions turned dark. Apparently, they somewhat disliked answer
Within the blink of an eye, it was the day of the court. Theodore and his family had waited for Ivanka to come to them over the past few days. Unfortunately, Ivanka never bothered to entertain them. Theodore and his family panicked. They believed Ivanka could not possibly take any action against them based on the agreement on the transfer of shares. They thought she was just scaring them. Hence, they decided to wait. The worst scenario would be to show up at court. After all, Theodore and Ivanka had already fallen out, and everyone knew what was going on. Regardless of whether Theodore returned Ivanka her and her father’s shares, everyone had already gossiped about the issue fervently. Theodore thought they might as well enjoy the profits earned from the shares. With the power in his hands, people would stop gossiping about him.” While Theodore and his family were conflicted about the issue, it was time for the lawsuit. Ivanka had already taken her seat. Theodore hired an
Under the crowd’s gazes, Ivanka finally pointed out the loopholes. “Please look carefully at the clauses on the agreement. Clause 24 explicitly stated that…” Ivanka read the loopholes sentence by sentence. Theodore’s lawyer became dumbfounded. One could not see anything wrong with that clause alone. However, with Ivanka’s professional ability, when she combined two clauses together, it unexpectedly led to loopholes. How did it become like this?! Theodore did not understand what Ivanka was reading. But, he saw with his own eyes that his lawyer’s expression had turned as white as sheets. How did it become like this?! He subconsciously whispered to his lawyer. “What’s going on?” “She’s too good…” the lawyer whispered to Theodore. The lawyer sounded like he had run out of ways to refute Ivanka. Sandy had the photocopy of the agreement on the transfer of shares with her. While Ivanka was pointing out the loopholes in the clauses, Sandy read the agreement carefully. Her
“Who do you think you’re badmouthing, woman?” Sandy’s words all died on her tongue. Even her eyes were filled with surprise! Was she hearing things? Without any further thought, she gradually turned her head around. When she saw that Ivan was sitting behind her with a dark look on his face, Sandy’s eyes were filled with shock! “Why are you here?” Sandy felt as if she had seen a ghost! How could this be?! When did Ivan come, and how did he end up sitting behind her so silently? How was this possible? Not only was Sandy surprised, but even Suki was in disbelief. When did this happen? Ivan’s expression was darker than a thundercloud. He clenched his teeth and said, “Why can’t I be here?” Sandy was dumbstruck. For some reason, at that moment, she actually felt a little guilty. However, of course she could not show it on her face. She just sneered, “You’re right. No one can stop you where you want to go.” After saying that, Sandy turned back and refused to
Theodore’s expression grew darker. He knew this was his only way, but he could not stand it! Also, Lyla was not done talking yet. She looked at Theodore grimly. “As for the income for these past few years, it doesn’t matter if she had cheated us of those. At least, we are not going to give her that again. Otherwise, not only do we need to give her the shares, we’ll also need to pay her extra money on top of that. We’ll be losing out big time.” Theodore gritted his teeth. “No! That’s not a good idea! How could I return the shares to her? We already put in so much effort to kill Fernando in the first place. She has already cheated us of two billion dollars, and we’ve lost all of our income for the past few years. If we let her take the shares back and let her demand an extra billion or so more of our profits, then not only will we not earn a single cent, we’ll also have to compensate her with two billion after all our troubles. How are we going to pay her, then?!” Lyla frowned. Th
“About that, I want to ask for your advice. Can you help me contact the judge? Tomorrow’s case will be Ivanka’s case against me. I wonder if the judge can…” Theodore sounded a little helpless, but he did not finish his words. He was being very obvious. If the assistant could not tell, then he was not fit to stay by the judge’s side. When the assistant heard this, he finally sighed in resignation. “Mr. Lane. I’m really sorry. I can’t help you with such matters.” Since Theodore had made it clear, he could reject it outright. Theodore’s expression instantly changed, but once he thought that this might be the other party’s attempt to ask for more, he quickly spoke again, “Please, Mr. Berg. I know this is an inconvenience for you, but these shares are really important to me. I really need your help to mention this to the judge. Rest assured; your efforts will be rewarded. I will definitely show you my sincerest thanks! You could even state your price!” The judge’s assistant sig
“Mr. Theodore has taken my father and my assets. Before this court session, I have discussed this matter with him multiple times, but to no avail. So, I have no choice but to sue him. I have the right to demand that Mr. Theodore return all of his shares and all the profits over the years in full.” Theodore was shocked! He was about to explode from rage! She demanded he return all the profits in full? Even so, before he could dwell on it, Ivanka said, “When I request for Mr. Theodore to return all of his shares, I mean all of it. Mr. Theodore will not have a single share left.” Theodore was dumbstruck. Chiara and Lyla’s expressions were ugly beyond words as they watched from the audience seat! “Has Ivanka lost her mind?!” Chiara gritted her teeth, but she did not dare to talk too loudly. She said in disbelief, “No matter what, Fernando gave the shares to Dad back then. In fact, they had a proper contract. How could she do this?!” However, just as she said that, she sens
“Mr. Theodore and his family are responsible for the murder of my father. They have no right to inherit the shares.”Theodore’s heart skipped a beat. His face contorted as he shouted, “That’s nonsense!”Lyla and Chiara panicked!They never expected Ivanka to say such a thing there!That immediately caught everyone’s attention!Even Ivan had forgotten about his anger toward Sandy. He stared at Ivanka in disbelief.Wow! Ivanka sure had guts. She actually announced that there! Did she already find all the evidence?If not, striking prematurely would only make the other side more cautious.Looking at Ivanka, Ivan noticed her calm and emotionless demeanor. He found himself intrigued, even a bit resigned. If only he was allowed to turn on his phone, he would broadcast this live to Michael!But it was okay. He would convey it to him later. He had to show Michael how interesting Ivanka had grown.Ivanka’s words left everyone momentarily stunned. Theodore, upon reaching the courtroom,
