Ivy was stunned when she saw that reaction.

She began to feel a little awkward.

Still, Ivy didn’t reveal her emotions on her face. She straightened herself as she apologized gently.

“Ian, no matter what, I’m the one at fault for what happened today. I’m willing to take any punishment or reprimand.”
