Chapter 89 No wonder lan had been busy lately. It turned out that he was busy kissing up to the Shekdotters.

It must have been difficult for him. After all, he needed to do extra work on top of his regular workload at the company.

“Mrs. Holcomb,” Ivy politely greeted when she saw Sage.

Being a sensible woman, she said to lan, “Now that my job here is done, I'm going back to Bolton Investment.” “Okay.” Once lvy left, lan glanced at Sage, who had chere-empty-handed. He seemed to be silently questioning her as to why she didn’t buy anything for him.

Sage ignored his look as she asked coldly, “Where's the antique inkwell?” lan frowned, not understanding why Sage’s demeanor had changed even though she had been friendly to him over the phone earlier.

He recalled Ivy's presence in his office just now, so he decided to be patient with Sage for once. “Ivy was here earlier to givea report on tomorrow’s banquet “Your relationship with her has nothing to do with me,” Sage interrupted. “Hurry up and givethe inkwell. I'm quite busy, too, you know.” lan fell silent at that moment. In the end, he dug out a wooden box with the antique inkwell in it from his drawer.

“Why don’t I cancel my meeting and head over to Grandpa's house with you?” B “No need for that.” After Sage accepted the box, she spun on her heel and left.

This was the reason why she had to get a divorce as soon as possible.

Why should she continue tolerating lan’s infidelity toward her? Was she so pathetic to the point that she couldn't date any other men after divorcing lan? At that moment, Calvin happened to bump into Sage outside the elevator. He was torn between greeting her or letting her be when he noticed her brushing past him with an icy look.

Calvin was perplexed, to say the least. Since when was Sage the type to be so arrogant? The first thing Calvin noticed after entering the president’s office was lan’s thunderous look.

1/3 +15 BONUS “lan, did Sage piss you off again?” lan glanced at Calvin, clearly annoyed. “Why are you calling her by her name? Mind your manners,” Calvin was rendered speechless by lan’s sudden outburst. He had always been addressing Sage by her name, and he knew for a fact that lan had never said anything about it in the past.

Then again, Calvin was pretty experienced when it cto romance and dating. He knew what the trigger was right away.

It was clear that lan had already developed feelings for Sage, thus his unusual attention to something as miniscule as how Sage was addressed.

Calvin quickly changed his tune. “Mrs. Holcomb chere earlier, right? She didn’t seem happy at all. Did you two fight?” lan shot Calvin a pointed look. At first, he didn’t like how much of a gossipmonger Calvin was, but he couldn't put his finger on Sage’s fluctuating emotions. So, he filled Calvin in on what happened earlier.

“You're saying that Mrs. Holcomb looked unhappy the moment she saw Ivy, right?” Calvin looked confused. “But Ivy was here to give you a work report, no? “I don’t think Mrs. Holcomb is the type to lump business and leisure matters together. lan, | need you to think harder. Did you leave out any details?” lan responded in annoyance, “No. Ivy just said goodbye to her before leaving with the gift box.

“Gift box?” Calvin grasped the keyword immediately. “What gift box?” “Today's Uncle Ron's birthday, so | had my secretary prepare a luxurious gift box for him in advance. | wanted to have it delivered to Shekdotter Manor at first. But since Ivy decided to swing by to givea work report, | told her to bring it with her.” Calvin understood the whole situation right away after hearing lan’s explanation.

“This is why Mrs. Holcomb felt displeased, lan.” lan’s brows were tangled into a frown. “Why would she feel displeased about this?” Ronald was a family friend who had always been present in lan’s childhood. Was it wrong of lan to give him a gift on his birthday? Calvin explained, “The problem doesn’t lie within the gesture. It's the fact that Mrs. Holcomb has misunderstood you. She thought you prepared extra gifts for people other than Mr. Joyner Senior.

+16 BONUS “Then again, this is just a small problem. | promise you that she'll cool down once you've explained everything to her later.” Calvin looked quite proud of himself for understanding Sage’s thought process well. However, lan just huffed coldly at the sight.

“Why should | explain anything to her? She's the one who decided to get angry over such a petty matter. How is that my problem?”
