Calvin realized that he had gone too far when he noticed the look in Ian''s eyes. He cleared his


    throat and joked, "What I mean is, I get where you''reing from, but your delivery needs work.


    Why don’t you put yourself in her shoes for a second?


    "Would you be thrilled if she dashed off to the hospital in the middle of the night to see some guy


    and returned the next morning with a present that was meant for someone else?"


    "But you can''t be so perfunctory,” Calvin responded. "Wouldn''t you be upset as well if she gave you


    a gift that was bought by another guy?”


    "Shut your trap.”n snapped. "What other guy? Where the hell would she find another guy?"


    He identally let his tongue slip again. Calvin smacked his forehead. "I was just giving you an


    example,n. Look, even the example makes you ufortable. Don''t you think it would make her


    ufortable as well?"


    "But she knows damn well that nothing went on between Ivy and me. Ivy fainted. Did she expect me


    to just sit back and watch?"n fumed. "If she didn’t constantly have it out for Ivy and pick fights


    with her, Ivy wouldn''t have asked me to pass on the gift in the first ce!”


    Even though Calvin had a ton ofints, he didn''t dare to voice them out when he noticedn''s


    demeanor. Instead, he obsequiously chimed in, n, Mrs. Hob does seem a little unreasonable.


    You wouldn''t even be with her if you were into Ivy!"


    "Who are you to call her unreasonable?"n tossed his proposal at him. "Redo it!"


    Calvin felt as if he was about to burst into tears. What exactly did he do wrong this time? Why did


    he always manage to send his proposals whenn was in a bad mood?


    "Oh,e on,n! Please give me a few pointers. This is seriously the best I can do!" After a


    moment, a devilish grin appeared on his face. "If you don''t, I''ll stick to you 24 hours a day, wreck


    your dinner ns, and ensure you never get a moment alone with Mrs. Hob!"


    In the end,n red at him. "Go to my office.”


    "Roger that!"


    In the afternoon, Sage received a phone call from Prisci, urging her to go to Mimosa. When she


    arrived, she realized that not only were Prisc and the executives there, but Shane too.


    Unlike the other employees at Mimosa, he seemed calm and unconcerned. However, the fact that


    Shane, their investor, was here showed that the issue was quite serious.


    "What''s going on, Prisci?" Sage asked.


    Prisci’s assistant informed her that someone had been poisoned after drinking Mimosa''s wine.


    They also showed her a hospital report stating that Mimosa''s wine was substandard and was


    intentionally hyped to lure consumers into making impulsive purchases.


    Mimosa was used of selling poor-quality wine at a premium for a quick buck. There were a lot of


    return requests on the inte at the moment.From N?velDrama.Org.


    "We''ve released the inspection report and food safety certificates, and although it appeased the


    netizens, most of them are still buying into the rumors. If this continues and more people start


    spreading false rumors, things could get really messy," her assistant exined


    Sage understood what to do. "Prisci, have you found out who''s behind this?"


    After all, she had also drunk the wine, but she was perfectly fine. Plus, Mimosa had just bounced


    back. Everyone must''ve been extra careful with the quality at this critical juncture. Therefore, this


    incident must''ve been orchestrated.


    Prisci narrowed her eyes. "There''s no need. I''m sure Benjamin''s the one behind this."
