Ives spent four hours outside the Saxon estate, but the bodyguards refused to open the gate. He couldn’t believe that he had destroyed everything with his own hands. He felt like crying.

He decided to leave when he saw Storm’s car, not because he was scared of Storm. However, he was afraid of the person behind Storm, Mr Wells. He was not the person to offend.
