Chapter 218 Sage lowered her head and noticed a bruise on lan's waist. He must've gotten it from bumping into the corner of the table when he carried her out of the bar.
the She didn't think much of it when Calvin mentioned it the other day. But looking at it now, bruise stood out starkly against lan's fair skin. Sage could only imagine how painful it must've been at the time.
"If you feel bad about it, why don't you apply the ointment fortonight?" lan suggested. However, Sage, who was sporting a look of concern just a moment ago, immediately rolled her eyes at him. "Dream on." He was rendered speechless.
The food was in the form of a buffet. Sage reluctantly accepted lan's offer to carry the plates while she chose the food. Their 'loving' behavior attracted a lot of attention.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtEveryone in Holcomb Corporation would undoubtedly know how deeply in love she and lan were after that day. Tiana and Calvin returned with several stacks of barbecue after lan and Sage sat down at the table with their food.
"I'm starving! Soaking in the hot springs sure makes you hungry!" Tiana exclaimed as she handed Sage two enormous grilled prawns. "I got you your favorites. Aren't I considerate?" Sage was well aware that she was attempting to make amends for what had happened earlier, so she glared at Tiana. "Mhm, you are oh so considerate. Thank you!" "Don't mention it. Let's eat!” Tiana immediately started gnawing on a drumstick.
Peeling shrimp was a bit of a chore, so Sage decided to go for a drumstick instead. After all, it was just as delicious and didn't need to be peeled.
"Mrs. Holcomb, I thought Ms. Ford said you loved grilled shrimp the most. Why aren't you eating them?" Calvin asked.
Sage took a bite of the drumstick and mumbled, “I'm too lazy to peel the shrimp.” Tiana chuckled. "Oh, she's the kind of person who finds it troublesto peel the shrimp for herself, but she would gladly peel a whole plateful for a certain someone.” Sage glared at Tiana. “Oh, hush it you." All of a sudden, lan remembered that whenever he had gone hfor dinner in the past, the shrimp on the plate had always been peeled. The shrimp were always arranged around the plate with decorative flowers and a small dish of condiments in the center. It looked like a work of art.
When he sat down at the table, Sage would even dip the shrimp in the condiment and place them in his bowl. Her eyes sparkled as she looked at him and said, “lan, these shrimp are very fresh. You should have smore!" However, he was afraid that she would send them to his office every day if she thought he liked them, so he would pick the shrimp out of his plate, throw them into the bone dish, and 1/2 +15 BONUS coldly say, "I don't like shrimp.
lan felt a little stuffy when he thought about the past. He reached out and took the plate of shrimp in front of Sage.
"What do you think you're doing?" Sage looked at him, puzzled.
lan responded calmly, "I thought you didn't like to peel them?” Sage had a feeling that lan remembered how she used to peel them for him when he heard Tiana's words. Hence, she hastily pushed another plate of prawns in front of him and said, That's so considerate of you, Mr. Holcomb. Why don't you peel these as well? I'd love to eat them." She figured she wouldn't have the chance to boss fan around in the future, so she might as well make the most of this opportunity and have him serve her.
He pursed his lips and decided to peel all of them. After peeling the first one, he was about to place it on the plate when Calvin said, "Mrs. Holcomb has been wanting to eat them for a while now, lan. Hurry up and feed her!" Just as Sage was about to speak up, he continued, “Mrs. Holcomb, I'm sure your hands are dirty from holding the drumstick. Why don't you just sit back and let lan serve you?" He then winked at lan. The latter calmly took the shrimp and brought it to Sage's mouth. Tiana and Calvin were both staring at her at that moment.

Sage had a feeling that they wouldn't be able to suppress their smiles if she continued to act coy. So, she accoy.
opened her mouth and took a bite of the shrimp. "Is it sweet?" Tiana asked.
Sage gave her a light kick under the table. "Why don't you have one and find out?" "Oh, no. I couldn't possibly eat anymore. I'm so full just from looking at you guys," Tiana teased.
"Keep going, lan. I'm thoroughly enjoying the show," Calvin chimed in. Tiana burst out laughing.
Ivy happened to see lan feeding Sage when she walked over to the buffet over to the area. It was obvious that he was indulging her, even though he was doing it begrudgingly.
Suppressing the emotions bubbling in her heart, she approached the m group, who were having a good tand said, "Hi, lan, Mrs. Holcomb, and Mr. Luther. Would you mind if I joined you? X
