The Returning Ex

When Ian was back to training, he felt more relaxed.

As for William, he returned to the office in the afternoon but arrived rather late. Instead of heading straight to his office, he went to John’s.

John happened to finish reviewing and signing a document, after which he leaned into his chair and pinched between his brows in fatigue.

Thus, things began spiraling downward at the Baileys.
