assumed Wanda had encountered some difficulties, so she comforted her, “Do tell me if there’s something I could help you with.” 

The middle–aged woman immediately shook her head. “Oh, no. It’s nothing.” 

“Alright, then.” Sage then took a sip of the soup Wanda had prepared. 

“Mrs. Holcomb, did you get into an argument with Mr. Holcomb?” Wanda asked. 

Sage took another sip of the soup and responded, “It’s nothing serious–just a little disagreement.”

Sage lost her appetite in an She wondered what Ian was playing at. After all, she had just called him out. So why was he going through all this trouble? 

Sage returned to her room after dinner. After she did so, she received a message from Shane. 

“Ms. Joyner, you were way out of line today. Don’t forget that you still owe me a meat” 

Sage was baffled. 

“Haven’t you had enough, Mr. Morrison? This isn’t the first time you’ve used me as your human shield. I can’t believe you still have the nerve to mention that I owe you a meal.” 

Shane wasted no time and called her.

She couldn’t be bothered to correct him anymore. “What do you want, Mr. Morrison? Please don’t tell me you’re just here to stick your nose into my relationship. You’re making me wonder if you have a crush on him.” 

“Eww!” Shane was visibly disgusted. “I’m not as blind as you!”

Sage’s brows were knitted as she asked, “What is it?” 

Ian pursed his lips and walked toward the stairs without saying a word. 

“Weirdo,” she thought to herself. 

Sage shut the door, booted up her laptop, and started going through the proposal. She felt sore and stiff when she was done. Hence, she shut her laptop and decided to go downstairs to ask Wanda to help her apply the ointment. However, when she opened the door, she found Ian about to do the same. 

It was strange because she had made herself crystal clear. Knowing Ian, he shouldn’t have come to her room again.
