Don’t let your throat go dry.” There was indeed sdiscomfort in lan’s throat. So, lan accepted the mug.

When | almost lost. because | was distracted by you?” Calvin fell silent. “But you have to admit that | was loyal enough to help you out, right?” lan massaged the space between his eyebrows. “Write another detailed and plausible letter of intent on your own.

Should | help you talk to Sage so that she'll let go of you sooner?” lan glared at Calvin. “Get lost. In the future, you're not allowed into my office without my permission.” Calvin couldn't understand why lan becso contradictory.
