The age-old adage states, "Treating your partner poorly might seem satisfying momentarily, but winning them back will prove an arduous endeavor." Before their divorce, Michael viewed Ivanka as cold-hearted and self-centered, believing she'd go to great lengths to achieve her ambitions. However, after their separation, the man who once declared love made him appear foolish with his pleadings. "Honey, marry me, I love you," he entreated. "Honey, forgive me, let's get married," he implored. "Promise me, sweetheart, I'll make amends for the rest of our lives," he vowed. In response, Ivanka sternly said, "Can't you just leave me alone? Your constant presence is driving me mad. Are you some kind of puppy?" To which Michael replied, "I'm your loyal lapdog, dear. I'll only obey your commands." A chuckle escaped her lips. As a accomplished lawyer, respected doctor, and skilled hacker, how could she possibly entertain the idea of remarrying this unworthy man and taking on the role of caregiver once more? "No, I won't take you back, you brute. Stay away from me," she firmly declared.
