Chapter 23

Terry found himself regretting his decision.

Ian had worked overtime till the wee hours of the morning. He proceeded to spend the entire day wearing nothing but a poker face. It was clear that he was in a bad mood.

As expected, Ian’s expression softened a lot. Still, he harrumphed coldly at Terry’s words.

“I don’t care about her.

Terry picked up on the underlying meaning in Ian’s response immediately.

“Mr. Holcomb wou must
