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.

Terry didn’t know if he was seeing things. He thought he noticed Ian’s furrowed brows relaxing slightly at the sight of the message.

Even though clothes with such a meager price tag would never be part of Ian’s daily wardrobe, Terry decided to risk his life by giving lan a compliment.

“It seems that Mrs. Holcomb has even bought you clothes even though she’s out on a shopping spree. She really cares about you, Mr. Holcomb,”

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

You even spent the day working non–stop. Why don’t you go home and get some rest?”

Ian stretched lazily. It was true that he felt rather exhausted.
