“How long does it take to fix it?”The technicians did not dare to say anything. Only the leader wiped his sweat and confessed, “The other party just cracked the code and did not continue to dig deeper. There was no intention to destroy it. It was as if they were just coming in for a stroll.”Michael did not say a single word. His bony hand tapped lightly on the table. However, everyone was uncomfortable like they were sitting on pins and needles.The irregular tapping kept their hearts pounding non-stop. It was like their hearts would pop out the next minute and they would die. Michael’s icy face did not have a hint of a smile. His eyes were icy and dark. No one dared to peek.The next moment, he suddenly laughed.That light voice made everyone want to jump to their deaths. That feeling was just too torturous. “Give me a time frame on how long it will take to fix it.”“Tonight. We’ll try to fix it by tonight!”“Try?” Michael sneered.The technicians were on the verge of

“Theodore!!!” Lyla’s chest was heaving from anger. “You. Are you trying to piss me off?”Theodore was not in the mood to continue this. He took a breath and said coldly, “I’m going to stay in the company tonight. So calm down. Remember to accompany Chiara.”After saying that, Theodore left. He did not care about how much Lyle ranted and fussed. Theodore did not turn back and walked determinedly away.At that moment, Lyla felt their marriage coming to an end.But… Theodore had taken all of her savings. What was she to do? …The next day, Ivanka then followed the agreed time and arrived at Sandy’s downstairs at eight.Sandy yawned and walked downstairs. One hand still covered her mouth as if she was a bit tired. “Goodness, Ivanka, how are you on time at 8 a.m. as promised? I’m still in my dream playing poker with a hottie!”Ivanka scoffed. “You’re a lady, behave.”“I’m telling the truth! That hottie is the most handsome star I’ve ever seen! I wonder if this is a prophetic dream

She stopped hesitating and started introducing the products without ever seemingly pausing to breathe.Sandy could not help but feel that the saleswoman was extremely competent. She easily qualified for a promotion to store manager.Sandy bought six sets in one go.As they left, she kept praising the saleswoman for her excellent oratory skills.Ivanka could not help but chuckle. “It’s a big brand’s store, after all. Of course they would have more outstanding staff.”Sandy could not help but nod and smile. “Haha, true.”“But then again, what’s the deal with that woman? Does she see you as a love rival?”After all, the relationship between Tanya and Ivanka, and Michael… was a bit complicated.At this moment, they were already walking on the street. Although there were crowds on the street, Sandy spoke in a low voice without naming anyone.Ivanka’s gaze flickered thoughtfully as she recalled Tanya’s friendly demeanor just now. She spoke in a low voice, “She might be trying to tes

“In the next couple of days? Every time you say that, I feel like you’re lying again.”Rosie’s voice sounded weary and mournful.Ivanka said resignedly, “Of course not, Grandma. I’m not lying to you!”“Then do you have time tonight? Would you like to come and have dinner with me? They won’t be home. It’ll just be the two of us.”Rosie’s voice sounded particularly pitiful. She seemed afraid Ivanka would disagree.If they were talking face-to-face, Ivanka might even see her throwing puppy eyes at her.Naturally, Ivanka could not bear to see her like this. So, she smiled and said, “Sure, I’ll come over tonight to accompany you.”“Really? You’re not lying, are you?”Ivanka chuckled. “Grandma, when have I ever lied to you?”With no one else around, she felt it was okay to go have dinner and chat with Rosie. She had not wanted to do so in the past because not all members of the Barkworth family liked her.“Great!” Rosie instantly became ecstatic, then continued. “I will stay home t

“You don’t mind, do you?” Rosie did not ask that aloud.Rosie could not bring herself to ask her, nor could she force herself to say that cheekily.Ivanka simply smiled. “Grandma, I remember this dish being your favorite.”With that, she served Rosie some food.She completely avoided talking about Michael.Rosie breathed a sigh of relief and nodded with a smile. “Yes, yes, Iv, you should eat too! I made sure they prepared plenty of your favorite dishes today!”Rosie reciprocated by serving Ivanka some food. They chatted and laughed. Michael was completely ignored. The atmosphere was so warm that Michael seemed like an outsider.Michael, surprisingly, seemed accustomed to this atmosphere and did not feel uncomfortable at all. He even found himself feeling hungry.However, due to Michael’s presence, Ivanka did not plan to stay much longer. She smiled at Rosie and said, “Grandma, I’ve been here for quite a while today, and there’s still some work I need to handle. I’ll come to see
