“I see.” Jonah realized that she was right.After opening the door, Ivanka went behind him and wheeled him into the house.Even though she did not betray her emotions, Jonah sensed that Ivanka’s attitude toward him had changed after this incident.He tested the waters carefully. “I’m hungry, Iv. Is there anything to eat at home?”“No, I haven’t been home lately. There’s nothing in the fridge. But I can go out to get you something. Give me a moment.”Since Ivanka had agreed to let Jonah stay at her house, she would have to take care of him.She could not help him use the bathroom or bathe him herself, so she decided to hire a caretaker.“I’ll wait for you at home.”Ivanka had already told him to wait. Naturally, Jonah agreed to stay at home.Ivanka nodded and left him alone in the house.Once she headed out, she went to a restaurant and ordered takeout. While she waited for the food to be ready, someone sat down across the table.Sensing a shadow in the periphery of her visio

Alexander chuckled softly. “Iv, what kind of talk is that? If I’m dead, how could I prove my feelings? It was just a comparison. Don’t take it seriously.“I know the casino boss is protecting you. Even if I wanted to hurt you, I couldn’t. And I don’t want to.”Alexander stated his position plainly. If he had wanted to harm her, he would have acted sooner. He would not have saved her at the auction.Ivanka let out a cold laugh. “So I’m supposed to thank you now?”Alexander quickly said, “That’s not what I meant. Iv, we could have a good relationship. If not as lovers, then as friends.”“You won’t even tell me who’s threatening me or reveal your true motives. Why should I be friends with you? Do you think I’m a fool?”Her cold stare showed she had lost all patience.She threw three small stones at him. He noticed it right away and easily evaded them.Alexander sighed. “Why are you so angry? I genuinely consider you a friend now. If I really was your enemy, you wouldn’t have gotte

Noticing Ivanka’s expression, Jonah quickly explained, “Iv, I didn’t mean anything by it. Everything here is new. Your place looked too plain. Since I’m staying here, I wanted to help. Otherwise, wouldn’t I just be freeloading?”He had basically decorated the place to look like a newlywed home.He was clearly doing this on purpose.He either wanted to stay or make her move in with him. Since he got what he wanted, there was no need to pretend.His intentions were obvious.Arguing would be pointless.“Don’t overthink it. Consider this my repayment. You’re here for treatment. What does it matter? Just tell them to stop. Don’t buy so much next time.”She did not want to make this a big issue between them. It would only make things tense.There was no point in fighting over small things.“Okay. If I buy anything else, I’ll send it to your old house instead. Speaking of which, what about Chiara?”Mention of the old house made Jonah think of Chiara, and he casually brought her up.

Alexander was deliberately provoking Jonah.Jonah was already furious, and this provocation struck deep. He gripped the wheelchair arms and tried to stand up from pure anger.But he failed and fell face-first onto the floor.“Pathetic. Look at yourself. Who gave you the right to run your mouth?”Alexander sneered at Jonah’s humiliating fall.Jonah had already felt inferior ever since he was confined to the wheelchair. Alexander’s words made it worse.“That’s enough! Alexander, this is your last chance. Are you leaving or not?”Ivanka crouched to help Jonah up while glaring at Alexander.When she said the man’s name, Jonah’s gaze turned cold, and his hostility grew.Unfazed, Alexander sighed dramatically. “You haven’t even accepted my gift yet.”His eyes gestured toward the large bouquet of red roses in his hands.Of course, she was not going to accept it, especially after how he treated Jonah and how she wanted nothing to do with him.After settling Jonah back in his wheelc

Since Ivanka had informed Vincent, Alexander planned to wait for his arrival. After all, he had never seen her uncle before. Vincent was once labeled as a godlike person. Alexander would like to personally witness how marvelous he was. “Iv, you don’t need to be this angry. I’m just trying to be kind to you. It doesn’t matter if you refuse to accept it. I also don’t mind that you’re angry with me, but why do you keep protecting him? There’s no need for you to do so. A person like him isn’t worthy of your sacrifices.” Alexander belittled Jonah through his words. Jonah’s mood had long turned foul because of him. Ivanka was worried that Jonah could no longer keep his composure and would burst into anger. She stood beside him and placed her hand on his shoulder. Jonah was aware of her intention. He even had the impression that they were both like husband and wife at that moment. Nonetheless, he still could not hold back his anger. He hated himself for being useless. If not
