Chapter 130 “lan Holcomb, you're the one who's picking a fight with me!” Sage snarled. “If you don’t want to giveanything, don’t force yourself to! I'm not a recycling bin. | don’t need things that have belonged to someone else!” “Could you stop being so damn difficult, Sage?” lan was afraid that she might snap if he mentioned that Ivy was the one who had picked out the earrings. So, he gritted his teeth and said, “The earrings are brand new. It still has the tag on it. Where did you get the idea that these belonged to someone else?” “Oh, so just because it has a tag means it's brand new?” Sage sneered. “lan, if you wanted to make things right, perhaps you should've found out what I liked first! Otherwise, just do what you always do and ignorealtogether!” Jan ran out of patience in the face of her accusations and sarcasm. “Fine! Forget | ever gave you anything then! Who gives a damn about what you want anyway?” He then stormed out of the room.

Sage was so furious that she threw the box into the trash can as well. She cursed lan inwardly. She couldn't believe he would give her something he had also bought for Ivy.

Did he seriously think she was that cheap? Did he think that she would treasure anything he gave her, even if it was crap? Her anger grew with each passing moment. Eventually, she couldn't take it anymore and kicked over the trash can. Out rolled the earrings, their diamonds gleaming in the light.

Initially, she wanted to stomp on the earrings and flush them down the toilet. But she couldn’t bring herself to do that when she looked at the exquisite workmanship and shimmering diamonds. Hence, she picked it up again.

They were expensive, after all. It would be a waste to flush them away.

“I can’t argue with cold, hard cash,” she mused. Mulling it over, she decided to sell it at half price on eBay.

Calvin felt a little uneasy as he looked at lan, who was sitting in silence across from him in a café.

“lan, please say something. I'm scared. | know | invited you out for lunch because | wanted. you to helpout, and | worked hard on revising this proposal. | stayed up two nights in a row just to ” “I thought women liked to receive gifts. Why did she get so upset when she received one?” lan asked gloomily.

Calvin sighed with relief. He thought lan was upset by his terrible proposal He discreetly patted his chest. “What did you get Mrs. Holcomb?” “Earrings,” lan answered coldly.

“What kind of earrings? Was she upset because she didn’t like them?” +15 BONUS “Do you seriously think I'd be asking you if | knew why she was upset?” lan could feel his anger bubbling up as he thought about it. He had tried to do something nice and got her a gift, but she ended up blowing up at him.

Calvin reassured him, “Okay. Calm down. Tellwhat happened. I'm sure | can help you figure out why she’s upset.” Sighing, he told Calvin what had happened that morning. “She said she didn’t want anything that belonged to someone else. But those earrings were obviously brand new, so how could they belong to anyone else?” “Isn't it obvious, lan?” Calvin was impressed by how stupid lan was. “Mrs. Holcomb had asked you when you got them. She probably thinks those earrings weren't meant for her at all. She thought you decided to give them to her because you felt guilty about going to the hospital and wanted to make up for it.

mon man. If you wanted to give her something, why didn't y pick it out yourself? Passing on someone else’s gift and not being able to admit it is what caused this mess.” lan shot daggers at Calvin.
