Chapter 39

Regardless, since the investment plan was of no use to her anymore, Sage

decided to let Bolton Investment use it. She probed, “Can you add an extra ten thousand?”

When they first got married, Ian had offered her a credit card to cover household expenses. But she had refused it. She had wanted to prove she wasn’t in it for the
