Did something happen?” She had been out cold all night and had woken up to a whirlwind of tests, Injections, and medication. She was clueless as to what had transpired the night before.

Terry briefed her on Mimosa’s sudden spike in popularity overnight. Ivy froze as he explained what was happening. She tried to maintain her composure and reached for her phone, which was on the bedside table, She nearly screamed when she scrolled through the various trending toples about Mimosa and Sage. Why were people glorifying the pictures of Sage getting drunk? Why weren't the netizens focusing on her upcoming divorce? All of a sudden, Ivy remembered seeing Priscilla at the party last night. Priscilla was in charge of Mimosa. Could all of this have been orchestrated by Sage? lan pursed his lips and said to Terry, “Let's head back to the office.” “I'll go with you guys,” Ivy chimed in.

“No. You need to focus on recovering,” lan said before leaving the ward with Terry.

Ivy couldn't stop her heart from sinking as her head spun. She felt like throwing up. How did everything turn out so differently from what she imagined?

“After you, Ms. Joyner.” Shane stretched out his hand gallantly.

Sage thanked him and walked in. After they placed their orders, a waiter popped a bottle of Chateau Lafite Rothschild open and poured it for them.

Shane lazily picked up his wine glass and took a whiff before taking a sip. “You know, Ms. Joyner, | underestimated you. You're actually very capable.” SURPERISE GIFT: 3000 bonus free for you,activity tis limited!
