Mr. Harvey responded and went to the gift room. Everyone was eager to see what was going to happen. Ivanka and Chiara were more than just sisters; one was Michael’s ex-wife, and the other was his current girlfriend. The problem was that both his ex-wife and current girlfriend had a close relationship with the Barkworths. They each had their own group of supporters. Rosie and Jay backed Ivanka, while Samuel and Mindy backed Chiara. Chiara was Michael’s lifesaver. Chiara would win in the end, no matter what the crowd thought, but she had stated that she would never marry Michael, making it a difficult situation. It was a chaotic situation overall. Everyone was expecting a drama. There had been major drama after major drama since Michael and Ivanka’s divorce. Chiara did not take a seat and instead stood on the side, as she needed to get her own gift. Catherine’s eyes were full of confidence. She cast a glance at Ivanka. She looked at her like she was going to fail misera

Rosie’s eyes were filled with concern. If there were fewer people present, she would have loved to lift Ivanka’s dress and inspect her knees. Chiara’s face turned pale! She yelled internally, “Ivanka, you really went all out!” Even Catherine felt a little embarrassed to take out her gift. She had not opened the gift box she was holding because she had only untied the thread. She only had to lift the cover when it was her turn. Sandy chuckled and said, “Mdm. Barkworth, the pastor from St. John Cathedral said you could put the gold cross in your bedroom. It will bless you with longevity!” Rosie nodded with a smile. “Of course. Crosses bring blessings, and this gold cross has been blessed with holy water and prayers, making it an especially meaningful gift.” She took Ivanka’s hand in hers. “Sweetie, you’ve gone through so much for this gift. You must not repeat this in the future, okay? It’s just a birthday.” Ivanka smiled and shook her head. “This is what I should be doing,

Despite the fact that there were over a hundred guests at the party, silence filled the hall at that moment. Not even the sound of cutlery clinking against plates could be heard. Chiara panicked. Even if she was stupid, she knew that she had been tricked! Ivanka had tricked her! She thought that she had been far enough to escape notice from Ivanka that day. She thought that was why Ivanka revealed that she wanted to buy a gift for Rosie. It turned out that she knew from the start that she was secretly watching her. She said she wanted to buy a gift on purpose. She was waiting for her to walk into the trap she had set up for her! She thought. “That b*tch! Ivanka that b*tch!” She was married to the Barkworths for three years. She knew exactly what Mrs. Barkworth hated the most, but she never told her. Chiara shook her head in puzzlement. She looked at Ivanka disappointedly and said, “Iv, what are you talking about? You never told me that Grandma doesn’t like this. You tol

The crowd was staring at them, as if they were expecting them to fight.Ivanka frowned. She looked at Chiara, puzzled, and asked, “What have I forgotten?”Rosie felt as if her heart was bleeding. She continued to clutch Ivanka’s hand tightly, as if it made her feel safe.Ivanka held Rosie’s hand and said softly, “Grandma, I will always stay with you. Always!”Rosie could not help but sigh. When she closed her eyes, tears dripped onto the table.It hurt Samuel’s heart. “Rosie, pull yourself together!” he exclaimed emphatically.Rosie remained silent, as if she was trying to keep her emotions under control.Michael took Rosie’s other hand and called her. “Grandma.”He did not say anything more, but it had given her enough comfort.He did, however, cast a stern look at Ivanka!He already sensed that something was wrong with Ivanka just now. If he still could not see that she had something to do with what happened, he was no better than a fool!He thought, “How could she betray

Chiara shook her head involuntarily. “I didn’t…” Catherine was enraged. She finally realized what was going on. She clenched her teeth and said, “This was obviously a set up by Ivanka! She purposefully stated in front of us that this is a gift for Grandma. She duped us into thinking she was going to give it to Grandma! We assumed this was the style Grandma preferred. That’s why Chiara went to such lengths to find it, but...” They had no choice but to tell the truth at this point in order to clear things up. Sandy, on the other hand, simply snorted. “My grandmother adores rosaries with intricate patterns like this. Iv and I are practically sisters. My grandmother had just only celebrated her birthday yesterday, and this is the gift Iv bought for her! You, on the other hand, chose to copy Iv’s idea instead of figuring out what you could give Mdm. Barkworth as a gift. Aren’t you ashamed of yourselves?” Ivanka shook her head as she looked at Sandy. “Stop it, Sandy.” Her voice was
