Chapter 293

After Ian finished speaking, both he and his assistant, Eric, were taken aback. Eric stared at Ian as though he were seeing an alien. Ian was usually dignified, distant, and seemingly uninterested in women. But at that moment, he looked like a lonely villain, desperately longing to claim a woman for himself. Eric was petrified by his own thoughts. Willow was equally surprised. She hadn't expected Ian to be so blunt. Her "thank you" had been more courteous than genuine. However, when confronted with his direct question, Willow couldn't simply admit that her gratitude had been insincere. She pondered her following words carefully before saying, "Of course." "If you want to thank me, how about treating me to dinner tomorrow…" Ian's words trailed off. He suddenly remembered his grandfather had arranged a blind date for him the following night. After a pause, he continued, "Let's plan for the night after tomorrow to meet and sign the contract." "Sure thing," Willow agreed readily.
