Chapter 1199 Ian Fell In Love With Laney

Garrett was caught off guard by Ian’s blunt refusal, causing him to raise the stakes as he said, “If youdon’t think it’s sufficient, I can provide an additional six months’ worth of salary.”

Ian remained resolute, shaking his head. “Only when Mrs. Larson personally terminates myemployment or when Mrs. Harding no longer requires my services will I resign.”

“When Mrs. Harding no longer requires your services?”

Garrett pondered in silence, experiencing an unexplainable pang of jealousy.

Garrett stared at Ian, his gaze intense as he tried to read something in his eyes. “Don’t you think that’sa little inappropriate? Ian, have you fallen in love with Laney?”

Despite Garrett’s intimidating gaze, Ian remained calm and composed. “Sir, I would never fall in lovewith my employer. I am a professional” he replied.

“I hope you can live up to your word” Garrett sneered.

Ian raised an eyebrow as he spoke. However, “Mr. Harding. On the day of Mrs. Harding’s delivery, youwere unreachable by phone and even arrived late. I anticipate that Mrs. Harding will inquire about thismatter, and I suggest that you provide a clear explanation that won’t disappoint her.”

Garrett’s expression becametenseas he asked, “What do you mean?”

Ian looked at Garrett with a curious expression- puzzled by his sudden change in demeanor. “I simplyhope that you can make a clear and satisfactory explanation to Mrs. Harding,” Ian said.

Garrett fell silent, appearing troubled by the prospect of explaining the situation to Laney.

Ian went on to add, “In case Mrs. Harding asks about the situation later and your explanation doesn’tmatch with Mrs. Larson’s, it could potentially distress her, especially since she is currently in a verydelicate state…”

As Ian was about to finish his sentence, a sweet and gentle voice interrupted him, asking, “What areyou two talking about?”

“Kailee?”

As soon as Garrett caught sight of the person, his expression instantly turned icy, and he spoke with aguarded tone. “What brings you here?”

“I came to the hospital today to attend to some business, and I didn’t expect to come across you,”Kailee replied calmly.

Kailee walked towards Garrett, wearing a surprised and joyful smile on her face, giving the impressionthat she had truly coincidentally stumbled upon him.

However, it was only Kailee who was privy to the knowledge that Garrett had been looking after Laneyduring her stay at the hospital.

Kailee knew that women were most exhausted right after giving birth, and in order to make Laney lookworse off, she deliberately dressed up and came to the hospital to create the impression that shecoincidentally ran into Garrett. This was all just a ruse to make Laney feel worse.

Feeling confident in her own beauty, Kailee believed that she could easily outshine Laney, whoappeared tired and haggard after giving birth.

Ian noticed the subtle look of triumph in Kailee’s eyes and realized that she had ulterior motives. Hespoke in a cold voice. “You must be Miss Gibson. Don’t you know that interrupting someone’s

conversation is considered highly impolite?”

Kailee’s perfect smile suddenly froze, and a hint of maliciousness flickered in her eyes.

Ian’s actions had repeatedly thwarted Kailee’s plans, and now she felt further aggrieved that he had theaudacity to confront her.

Ian remained indifferent to Kailee’s thoughts and proceeded to make a sarcastic comment, “Mrs.Harding had a difficult labor with hemorrhage that nearly resulted in her death right in your hospital.The investigation isn’t even complete yet and the attending physician has already been transferred tothe countryside. It appears that it’s all due to the presence of a boss like Miss Gibson.”

Ian’s words drew the attention of passers-by who started to gather around and began to gossip aboutKailee.

Kailee’s carefully crafted facade began to crumble under Ian’s ridicule. She grabbed Garrett’s sleeveand pointed at Ian while fiercely stating, “Garrett, your assistant is talking nonsense. You should justfire him and I’ll replace a better replacement for Laney!”
