Lianne Lianne was puzzled.
How did Seth Sinclair know she had given Ethan Sinclair a New Year's gift?
'Did he see it?'
Lianne Lianne answered honestly, "A fountain pen."
The moment she finished speaking, Seth Sinclair scoffed, his voice cool. "You give him a thoughtfully prepared fountain pen, but I get a perfunctory red envelope?"
Lianne Lianne explained, "The pen was custom-ordered in December, and it couldn't be returned. He gave me a New Year's gift, so I gave it to him in return."
After all, the pen was originally made for Ethan Sinclair, with his name engraved on it. Lianne Lianne couldn't possibly use it herself, much less give it to someone else.
As for throwing it away... that would be too wasteful. The pen was quite expensive.
"You don't spend money on men, yet you're willing to splurge on Ethan Sinclair." Seth Sinclair's lips curled into a slight, sarcastic smile. "Does that mean he's not a man?"
'What's that supposed to mean?'
