Chapter 93 Ivy's smiling face appeared on the screen. “What's with the early morning call, fan?” lan forwarded the photo to her. “Explain towhy this photo was taken like this.” Ivy wasn’t the only one who was shocked by lan’s question. Even Sage looked slightly surprised. She never expected lan to question Ivy in the first place.
Meanwhile, Ivy was astonished to see the photo. She soon recalled what happened that day.
“Didn’t | delete this photo on my social media feed? | have the tendency to show my cooking off whenever I've whipped up something nice. After posting that photo, | felt that it wasn’t nice enough, so | deleted it after a while.
“Why did you save this photo, lan? Is something wrong with it?” lan asked, “Why did you include my shirt in your photo?” “Huh? Did 1?” Ivy seemed to be scrutinizing the photo to verify the details. “You're right. Did Mrs. Holcomb misunderstand our relationship, lan?” lan answered right away, “She thought I took a shower and spent the night in your apartment.
It was then that Ivy noticed Sage, who sat next to lan. She quickly said apologetically, “I'm so sorry, Mrs.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHolcomb. You've misunderstood lan.” After explaining what happened that night, Ivy continued, “Mrs. Holcomb, if you still don’t trust me, | can always ask the property management to show you the security footage of that night.” lan turned to look at Sage after hearing Ivy's suggestion. At the stime, Sage picked up on the trace of B provocation and mockery shining in Ivy’s eyes.
She just smiled before tugging lan’s tie downward. Then, she stood on her tiptoes and kissed him on the lips.
lan could feel the softness of Sage’s lips and her fragrance overwhelming his senses. His breath now hitched in his throat. He dipped down to reciprocate the kiss without thinking about the reason why Sage had kissed him in the first place.
Since lan was still holding his phone, he tossed it onto the table immediately, thinking that it was distracting him from enjoying the kiss. He held Sage by the waist with the intention of deepening the kiss.
But the moment his hands made contact with Sage’s small waist, he felt her pushing him away forcefully.
+ BONUS “lan, please be gentle with me!” she moaned in the direction of the phone.
The next thing they knew, Ivy ended the video call immediately.
A satisfied smile crept onto Sage’s face as she moved to take her seat at the table. She looked so calm as though she wasn’t the one seducing lan just now.
“Are you satisfied now?” lan asked while suppressing his desire for Sage.
Sage wiped her mouth with a napkin. “Feel free to explain to Ivy what happened if you're worried she might misunderstand you.” lan didn’t respond to that remark. If it weren't for the fact that this was a bad tfor him, he'd definitely kiss her without a care in the world till she begged for mercy.
At that moment, Terry entered the dining room and reminded lan that it was almost tfor them to leave.
lan picked up his phone from the table while gazing at Sage. “Don’t forget to show up at the banquet on time.” Sage took a sip from her glass of milk. “Don’t worry. | won't forget about our little date. I've received your payment, after all.” Only then did lan walk away.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAs Sage watched lan’s silhouette leaving her line of sight, she put down her glass and let out a deep sigh. The truth was, she couldn’t endure how pretentious and fake Ivy was during the video call. Hence, she decided to irk Ivy by kissing lan.
But Sage didn’t expect lan to return the kiss eagerly instead of shoving her away angrily.
Was it true that men could easily be intimate with women they didn’t have any feelings for as long as they were horny? After having lunch with Donald, Sage drove back to Solaris Estate. As she grabbed the stuff she had bought yesterday, she walked into the living room only to see an unexpected visitor.
Delilah was there.
She sat with one leg crossed over the other. A cup of coffee sat on the coffee table before her. She happened to be flipping through a fashion magazine leisurely when Sage saw her.
“Mrs. Holcomb, Ms. Stromberg is adamant on waiting for your return,” Wanda said.
“Oh, Sage! You're finally home! You keptwaiting for a very long time!” Delilah exclaimed while putting down the magazine.
2/3 +10 BONUS Sage dismissed Wanda before asking Delilah, “What are you doing here?” Her displeased tone irked Delilah greatly.
“It's been so many days, Sage! Are you done with this tantrum of yours? You do realize that | taught Ivy a lesson on your behalf, right? | don’t expect you to thank me, but how could you. say such things to me?”
