Chapter 52
lan could barely suppress his anger. He said in a cold voice, “If I could afford to let others tarnish your identity as Mrs. Holcomb, do you think I’d spend my time bothering about your business?”
Sage knew it.
That must also be why he had such a concerned look in his eyes when he arrived at the second floor.
Fortunately, Sage wasn’t as presumptuous as she used to be. If not, Ian would be leading her by the nose again.
Sage retorted carelessly, “If you don’t want to bother about my business, hurry up and sign the divorce agreement. I’ve said before that you’ll regret it if you don’t sign the agreement!”
“You…” Ian’s expression turned foul when he heard those words. Then, he slammed the brakes!
Sage grabbed her bag. Ian didn’t even have to say anything before she got out of
the car.
In the end, Ian got out of the car as well. With a dark expression on his face, he disregarded her shouts as he stuffed her into the driver’s seat. Then, he fastened the seat belt around her.
“Go straight back to Solaris Estate. My car has a GPS. If you still refuse to stop this behavior, I’ll get your grandfather here to teach you a lesson!”
After Ian coldly said those words, he slammed the door shut.
Sage was speechless as she thought, “He’s out of his mind.”
Noticing that Ian was still looking at her with a foul expression, Sage hastily stepped on the gas pedal.
Once back at Solaris Estate, Sage tossed her bag away as she slumped onto the
couch.

Her sixth sense was useless.
In her subconscious mind, she always thought that Shane’s nonchalant and rebellious attitude was just a facade he portrayed. However, reality had proven her otherwise.
Setting aside the partnership, Sage was even more conflicted about whether she should tell Priscilla about Benjamin or not.
As she was a woman too, Sage wished that she could tell Priscilla right away,
Still, this matter was between Priscilla and her husband. Also, Sage had only ever met Priscilla once, so she wasn’t sure if Priscilla would trust what she said.
She also wasn’t sure if Priscilla already knew about Benjamin’s actions. Maybe she had chosen to ignore it.
Sage found Tiana’s number. She wanted to call Tiana to ask for opinions, but then, she remembered that Tiana had gone to Lathuyria today.
Sage set down her phone and felt a headache coming on.
Ian arrived at his office in Bolton Investment.
“If the founder has bad conduct, it’ll become a potential problem when the company tries to get listed in the future.
“Don’t you even know that? Where’s your common sense?” lan reprimanded with a cold expression.
Ivy and the other higher–ups were sitting at the table in the small conference hall, and they all had nervous looks on their faces.
“Mr. Holcomb, I was the one who made the decision to help Benjamin solve his
troubles. Please don’t blame them for it.‘
The other higher–ups secretly sighed in relief when Ivy volunteered to take responsibility. They were a little grateful to her as well.
“I’ll give you a reasonable explanation for this.”
With that, Ivy gestured for the other higher–ups to leave. In the meantime, she poured a cup of water for lan.
“You’ve been on the plane for the whole day. Have some water.”
Ivy asked, “How’s it going with Mrs. Holcomb? I hope she’s alright.”
When Ian thought of Sage, his already suppressed rage began to boll.
He accepted the cup of water but avoided the question. He said, “Tell me about Benjamin.”
“Sorry, I made the decision on my own.” Ivy looked apologetic. “I originally wanted to wait until you came back to make the decision.
“But Benjamin said that he was framed. Someone had purposefully stuffed a woman into his house when he was drunk.
“At this point, many people are indeed setting their sights on Mimosa. Someone may have framed him.”
Ivy said, “Even if we don’t make a move, Farsight Investment and even the other investment companies will. Benjamin contacted us right away, so this also means that he trusts in our capabilities.
“He even promised that as long as we help him resolve this problem, he’ll sign the contract with us right away. This is the commitment letter he wrote himself.”
Ivy grabbed the commitment letter and tried to sit next to Ian.
But before she could take a seat, Ian looked at her with his dark eyes.
