StarNovelChapter 76 What kind of man was lan? He wouldn't listen to Sage, nor would he ever apologize to Shane. It was basically a fever dream.
“If that's the case, then the bet is off,” Shane said lazily. “But I'm not an unreasonable man. You were sincere, so you don’t have to finish all this wine today. You can do something else instead.” Sage looked at him. “What is it?” Shane said, “A woman will cby later. Helpget rid of her.” Sage thought she’d misheard. “Get rid of a woman? What kind of woman?” Shane didn’t hide his irritation whatsoever. “An annoying, clingy woman whom | can’t chase away.
Sage guessed that this woman's relationship with Shane was no ordinary one based on his reaction.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtShane must have been unable to get rid of her because of sfamily reasons, so he was using Sage to get rid of her.
If it were just sordinary woman, Shane would've already made her cower with that temperament of his. He wouldn't have gone to this length just to find Sage in the first place.
“What an interesting way of doing things, Mr. Morrison. How could | get rid of someone based on my current identity? It wouldn't be appropriate even if | pretended to be a woman who likes you,” Sage said.
Shane said nonchalantly, “That's your problem, not mine. You can either get her out of here, and I'll pretend what happened last tnever happened, or you can finish this bottle of wine and compensatefor my mental turmoil.” [x He added deviously, “Don’t expect lan to crescue you. I've been fooled once before, so | won't be fooled again. | can guarantee you he won't get the least bit of advantage even if he comes here.” Of course Sage knew Shane had everything prepared. lan was outstation for work, too, so there was no way he would be able to rush back in time.
Sage asked earnestly, “Why do you needfor this kind of thing, Mr. Morrison? A lot more people are far suited for this than I am.” “No. No one is more suitable than you,” Shane said. He then explained patiently, “One, your looks are very convincing. Two, you won't take advantage of this to cling to me. Three, you owe me. Four, I'm happy to have you do this.” Sage didn’t respond.

Sage quietly pulled her hand out.
“I'll leave the rest up to you, Ms. Joyner.” Shane didn’t notice Sage’s movements at all. He beamed widely. “Don’t worry. I'm a man of my word. I'll let go of what happened before as long as you can get rid of her.” Sage said in a louder tone, “I really can’t do this sort of thing, Mr. Morrison. If we get into a fight in your office, it would badly affect you, you, wouldn't it?" Shane said, “Don’t worry. You can compensate for whatever you break here in the office.” Sage remained silent.
Just then, there was snoise from outside Shane's office door. A woman in her 20 walked in, dressed exquisitely.
