Chapter 106

What was she on about? Realization dawned on Sage the next moment, Wanda must’ve misunderstood because she cried and made a scene last night.

“Wanda, we didn’t…” Sage started with a slight blush. “I caused a ruckus last night because I was drunk.”

The middle aged woman assumed she was just shy, so she said softly, “Mrs. Holcomb, you should’ve shared a room with Mr. Holcomb a long time ago! It’s good for your relationship!”

“Well, what are you waiting for? Get over here and eat,” Ian said indifferently, ignoring Sage’s awkwardness.

“That’s right, Mrs. Holcomb, Hurry up and grab a bite. I’ll head to the kitchen first.”

Sage glared at lan after Wanda left. “Why didn’t you help me clear things up?”

He glanced at her. “I’m useless, remember? So what’s there to say?”

She thought about what a jerk he was, frustrated that he’d used her drunken words against her.

Sage was so embarrassed when she thought about what she whispered in Ian’s ear last night that she wanted the ground to swallow her up. It must’ve been the liquid courage.

“Do you always hit on guys when you’re drunk?” he asked lowly.

Sage blushed as she retorted, “I have no idea what you’re on about. I told you, don’t remember a thing.”

Ian sneered and was about to say something when his phone suddenly rang. He answered the phone after checking the caller ID. Nodding, he replied apathically, “Got it. I’ll head to the hospital soon.”

Sage was well aware of who Ian was going to see at the hospital. She suddenly lost her appetite, so she picked up her bag to leave too.
