Right as Sage was about to fall into Shane's arms, someone forcefully tugged on her arm and pulled her away. She fell sideways, knocking into a man's chest. She looked up when she smelled the familiar woody scent and was shocked to find Ian Holcomb in front of her."Are you okay?" His dark eyes betrayed a hint of fury, but he sounded genuinely concerned for her.Straightening up, she assured him, "I'm fine.""Yo, Mr. Holcomb! What a coincidence to have run into you! Are you here for a fun night too?" Shane remarked in amusement.Ian shot him a cold look and pulled Sage closer. "Why are the two of you here?"One of Shane's colleagues poked his head out of another lounge and cried, "Mr. Morrison, come join us for a round of drinks!""Coming," Shane yelled back. Then, he arched his brow quizzically at Sage. "Shall we?""Sure." Sage was about to leave when Ian reached out to hold onto her shoulder.Ian addressed Shane impassively, "She is a lightweight, so she won't go with you."

Before Ron could pour the alcohol over Sage's head, she went ahead and splashed her tea on his face. Caught by surprise, he trembled in shock and lost his grip on the wine glass, which crashed onto the floor.He seethed. "Filthy bitch! How dare you throw your tea at me?" Infuriated, he raised his arm to slap her in the face."Stop it!""Ouch—"Just as Ian yelled from the door, Shane grabbed Ron's wrist. Ron yelped in agony, twisting and turning as he pleaded for mercy. "Ouch, that hurts bad! Mr. Morrison, it's all my fault… Ouch—"Ron was cut off when Ian kicked him away. His round body collapsed and rolled across the ground.The other employees froze in shock when they witnessed the crazy scene. Ian paid no attention to them. Instead, he marched up to Sage and pulled her closer. "What just happened?"She shook her head and placed the empty cup on the table with lingering fear. Had Shane not intervened, Ron would have slapped her.Ian probably pieced the puzzle together. He con

Ian, sitting straight, held the glass of whiskey and downed it. His movements were like performance art. In contrast, Shane sat lopsidedly and waited lazily for the waiter to deliver his drink.The two men finished another ten or so drinks in that manner, throughout which Shane stayed the same. Sage didn't think much about it because Shane had always been a spoilt rich kid who indulged in fun.However, she was taken aback by Ian's composure. He got tipsy at the Holcomb family gathering last time. In her past life, she even saw him lying on the couch drunkenly. Did the type of alcohol make a difference? Sage then recalled that Ian got drunk on vodka at the family gathering. So, she suggested, "Hennesey is not as concentrated as vodka. This back-and-forth is taking up too much time. Why don't we switch it to vodka?"Ian glanced at her, seemingly reading her mind. The look on his face was mixed with cold disdain and anger. He turned to Shane. "What do you think, Mr. Morrison?"Shane

Ivy, sounding weak yet determined, stated, "No, I won't! There are too many of them. I can't watch you get injured."At that moment, a thug threw a punch at Ivy's face, prompting a scream from her. Ian quickly pulled her closer and kicked the man away.Although it was not the right occasion to laugh, Sage couldn't help but let out a wry chuckle. She thought, "Turns out that Ian isn't exclusively protecting me. He would do the same for Ivy when she's in trouble."While Sage was distracted, the man who collapsed from Ian's beer bottle earlier scrambled to his feet. He charged at her with a murderous look.Noticing his approach, she quickly hit him with the metal rod, causing him to stagger backward. However, he was stronger than her, and she hadn't used all her strength on him.The man, after touching the trail of blood coming on his forehead, grew even more menacing. He came at her like a madman and snatched the metal rod out of her grasp. The rod made a clanking noise as it hit th

In addition to the chilling edge in Ian's tone, Sage also sensed a mixture of indignance, irritation, and dejection.She assumed that he was referring to Shane. His misunderstanding of her relationship with Shane must have meant she didn't miscarry. For some reason, she felt relieved.Ian pressed on. "Why are you silent?"She looked up at him. "I told you that I was at fault. What I'm doing now is putting an end to my mistake.""Is this how you go about fixing your mistakes?" Ian took out a few photos and tossed them at her.She lowered her gaze and realized that those were photos of her and Shane checking into the hotel, as well as Shane entering her hotel room.In the photos, Shane held her closely in what appeared to be an intimate position. Shane had set up the scene to fool Giselle, but Sage didn't expect Ian to have witnessed it too.She was slightly taken aback but was not too surprised that Ian had found out about it. If Shane admitted to fathering her child, Ian would r
