He doesn’t look like he’s going to dump you.” “Mr. Morrison, could you just get to the point?” Shane crossed his legs and said lazily, “I just got word that Professor Braun has decided that you'll be in charge of their drug promotion and distribution.” Sage was stunned. “How's that possible? Are you sure?” She had just met with Collin yesterday, and he clearly wanted to work with Holcomb Corporation. Besides, Ivy also went to negotiate with them. How could he have decided to hand the project over to her after just one day? Shane snorted. “My sources are never wrong. Either lan cares a lot about you, or he’s giving you this as compensation because he’s going to dump you.” Sage couldn't be bothered to respond. Instead, she asked, “How's the thing | asked you to do? “She realized that they would need to expedite the matter if Collin really gave her the distribution rights.

The phone rang for several moments, and just when she thought lan wouldn't answer, deep voice cthrough the phone. “What's up?” his It was especially quiet on his end, and he sounded like he had something else to attend to.
“Are you in a meeting? | can call you back later,” she asked.
“Just get to the point.” “Fine.” Sage cut to the chase. “Are you seriously going to lethave the distribution rights to Professor Braun's drug?” “Damn, word travels fast,” he remarked. “I thought you wanted it.” So it was true! She did want it, but why would he give her the project just because she wanted it? “But- A representative from Professor Braun's research institute will get in touch with you. | have something else to do right now, so | have to go.” With that, he hung up.

Ivy suppressed her emotions. “lan, weren't you the one who askedto handle the negotiations and follow-ups just two days ago? Why did you suddenly hand it over to Mrs. Holcomb?” “You can focus on the other projects then. Leave Professor Braun to Sage.” “Don’t you think you still owe my team anda convincing reason?” she insisted.
“I don’t have any reasons. We've already agreed to invest in Professor Braun's research institute. We're just having Sage handle the operations. There’s no conflict of interest there.” “But this is MY project! Even if Sage acquires the distribution rights, the profits will not benefit Holcomb Corporation!” Tears welled up in her eyes. This was the first tshe had ever argued with lan about work.
He looked at Ivy coldly. “It’s just a pharmaceutical project. Its profits are limited. Even if other companies invest in it, our share will not decline. Why are you so set on this?” “Why am | so set on this? Do you seriously not know why?” she asked with teary eyes.
