A Farewell After Being Reborn Chapter 212
"No wonder she told me I didn't have to prepare anything. Ian had already taken care of everything," Sage brooded."What would've happened if I hadn't agreed to come?" she asked.Tiana responded, "Then, we'd just have to send your belongings back. Easy peasy."Sage was at a loss for words.…The rooms here were all unique. It was mostly styled after the ancient Aztec civilization. Even the corridor floors were made of wooden strips. Sage's room wasn't on the same floor as Tiana's. Sage found herself in a spacious room with a large bed when she opened the door. There were roses thoughtfully placed on the neatly made bed, and quite a few rose petals were scattered around. The various matching decorative items made the room look oddly romantic.Her travel-size suitcase was beside the cabinet. Sage opened it and found her swimsuit, pajamas, other clothes, skincare, and makeup products. This was undoubtedly Wanda's handiwork. Sage realized that everyone, except herself, knew about h

"Leave it behind the door and get out of here!" Sage fumed.Ian stopped in his tracks for a moment. "I'll wait for you in the hallway."Then, he set the bag down. Not long after, the door outside closed with a soft thud.Sage breathed a sigh of relief. She smacked her flushed cheeks before slipping into the new swimsuit. The swimsuit Ian had gotten her was much more modest. It covered her shoulders and reached just below her knees. She felt much more comfortable in it.Sage still wrapped herself in a bath towel before opening the door with her phone in hand. Sure enough, Ian was waiting for her in the hallway. His dark eyes lingered on her for a moment when she stepped out of her room. His lips parted when he noticed her fair, slender legs, but he chose not to comment on them. Instead, he said, "Let's head downstairs. Ms. Ford and her colleagues are chilling in the hot springs."Sage still felt a little uneasy. "I can manage on my own. I don't need you to escort me."Ian respon

Ian was aroused in public.Sage's cheeks turned crimson as his erection pressed against her abdomen. The couple was locked in an embrace. There were a lot of people peering at them from the hot spring pools below. Some even pulled out their phones and took pictures of them. Sage felt like she was going to die of embarrassment. Yet, she dared not move, as she was worried that Ian would act on his urges. How could this shameless man get an erection in public? Sage shot daggers at Ian.Ian lifted her when he noticed her annoyed expression. He supported her buttocks with one hand and wrapped his arm around her waist before walking toward the nearest pool. Their bodies pressed snugly against each other as he walked. His erection showed no signs of waning. Instead, it proudly asserted itself and became more prominent with each step.Of course, she felt it. Sage was so embarrassed that even her earlobes turned red. Afraid that others would catch on, she buried her head in Ian's chest.

Ian felt a twinge of regret for letting her go when he looked at Sage. Even though she was wearing a modest swimsuit, it failed to cover her slender, long legs and curves. "Ian, are you listening?" Calvin called out again.Ian looked away, his tone tinged with irritation. "What is it?""Why are you so cranky? What? Are you pent-up?" Calvin teased. Little did he know that his joke would hit a nerve."In the future, just call Terry when you need something. Don't call me ever again!" Ian then hung up the phone on him.Calvin was left hanging, puzzled. What did he do wrong? Why couldn't he call Ian anymore?…Meanwhile, Sage found Tiana. The latter had sent her colleagues away as if she knew the former would come looking for her. Tiana sat in the rose pond, holding her phone with a grin."What are you laughing at? You're going to get me killed!" Sage grumbled as she eased into the pool. "What did I do? I brought you here to soak in the hot springs, not to cozy up to Ian!" Tiana

"Isn't this Holcomb Corporation's employee group? What are you doing here?" Sage asked as she stared at Tiana.Tiana took her phone back and continued to scroll through the comments with gusto. "It's not a work group. It's a gossip group that the employees set up separately. Calvin roped me in."Sage was amused. "Wow. Your networking skills sure are impressive. Not only are you close to Calvin, but you've also wormed your way into Holcomb Corporation, huh?"Tiana shrugged. "I'm just here for the latest gossip. Don't worry. No one knows we're friends, so everyone here is free to speak their mind."Sage was at a loss for words.…Meanwhile, Ivy was leafing through documents in one of the resort's rooms when she was interrupted by a series of notifications on her phone. The wound on her forehead hadn't fully healed yet, so she couldn't risk getting it wet, let alone indulge in the saunas. Hence, she didn't join the others downstairs and instead focused on the project she had found
A Farewell After Being Reborn Chapter 217
Ian looked up at Calvin, who had already changed into swimming trunks and was now wearing sunglasses. He strutted around like a peacock flaunting its feathers, drawing the admiring glances of many girls."Are you done? If so, you're free to go," Ian said, dismissing him.Unabashed, Calvin said, "Since I've come all this way, and it's still early, it'd be a shame if I didn't soak in this 5-star natural hot spring."Ian wasn't the least bit surprised by his shamelessness. Plus, he couldn't be bothered to deal with him. He simply ordered, "Stay away from me." He found Calvin's ostentatiousness embarrassing. "Where's Mrs. Holcomb, Ian?" Calvin was unfazed by his attitude. He snickered. "I heard you guys were recently seen canoodling in public. Is that true?"The thought of Sage's supple body and the way her cheeks flushed while she was pressed against him reignited Ian's desire. He crossed his long legs and said, "That's none of your business.""You're so heartless, Ian. How could y
A Farewell After Being Reborn Chapter 218
Sage lowered her head and noticed a bruise on Ian's waist. He must've gotten it from bumping into the corner of the table when he carried her out of the bar. She didn't think much of it when Calvin mentioned it the other day. But looking at it now, the bruise stood out starkly against Ian's fair skin. Sage could only imagine how painful it must've been at the time."If you feel bad about it, why don't you apply the ointment for me tonight?" Ian suggested.However, Sage, who was sporting a look of concern just a moment ago, immediately rolled her eyes at him. "Dream on." He was rendered speechless.The food was in the form of a buffet. Sage reluctantly accepted Ian's offer to carry the plates while she chose the food. Their 'loving' behavior attracted a lot of attention. Everyone in Holcomb Corporation would undoubtedly know how deeply in love she and Ian were after that day.Tiana and Calvin returned with several stacks of barbecue after Ian and Sage sat down at the table with

Sage turned to look at Ivy, who was dressed plainly and had minimal makeup. The smile on her face faded slightly as she had no intention of conversing with the woman.Calvin was the one who responded instead. "Sorry, Ms. Shekdotter, but Mrs. Holcomb's friend is also here. Your presence might make her feel a little uncomfortable."Ivy looked at Tiana when she heard that. "Oh, you must be Mrs. Holcomb's friend. I was busy and hadn't been able to come downstairs earlier to greet you. I apologize for that."Tiana had never met Ivy before, but she could guess who she was from her expression and Sage's reaction."Ms. Shekdotter? Oh, you must be Mr. Holcomb's subordinate. Don't you think the way you address people is a little funny? I mean, you're well aware that you have to address Sage as Mrs. Holcomb. Yet, you're calling Mr. Holcomb by his first name?" Tiana couldn't help but comment.Sage was aware that Tiana's remark would upset Ian, but she couldn't care less and had no plans to st

Ian said calmly, "I just got back from a business trip and came by to check on Sage."Giselle didn't ask more questions. She explained to Sage, "I just saw Selena over there. I went to her and clarified that this was my idea. Selena said it was okay."Seeing Selena's calm and relaxed demeanor, Sage didn't have the energy to pretend to be friendly with her.She said to Giselle, "I'm going back to the ward," and then headed to the elevator.Ian was at her heels. "Sage, if you're too tired, just lean on me."Sage stayed silent and didn't respond to Ian, just staring blankly at the numbers on the elevator panel.In the hospital room, Tiana had been waiting for Sage for a while.Seeing Ian, Tiana was equally surprised and asked, "What are you doing at the hospital? Weren't you on a business trip away from town?"Ian succinctly said, "I came back once the task was done."Tiana looked at Sage. "How did it go?"Sage nodded numbly. "Pretty good."Tiana could tell from Sage's expressi

Sage paused slightly in her steps and turned to look at Shane. Her voice was slightly hoarse as she asked, "Is there anything else?"Shane felt an indescribable discomfort as he watched Sage's unsteady appearance.But he didn't know why he had to call out to Sage, especially since he didn't remember anything about her."Since you say we are good friends, and I got hurt because of you, why can't you visit me more often?" Shane questioned, finding a reason.“Sorry, she won't be available.”As soon as Shane finished speaking, the door to the hospital room was suddenly pushed open.Sage turned her head and saw Ian's tall, upright figure.He was wearing a custom-tailored black suit, looking like he had rushed over from somewhere, carrying an air of exhaustion.Ian had been on a business trip for the past two days. Why did he suddenly show up now?Sage glanced toward the doorway but didn't see any signs of Giselle.Sage had a faint guess about who was behind this. She gave a self-d
A Farewell After Being Reborn Chapter 882
Shane's thought process was quite logical.Sage calmly replied, "You were worried that she was only momentarily taking a step back, so you couldn't fully trust her and wanted to observe for a while."Shane also mentioned that when Sage came to the hospital room two days ago, the way she spoke to him was very familiar. It wasn't like how typical business partners would interact.Sage admitted that they were not just business partners but had become good friends through their interactions."But I wouldn't take a good friend to my mother's grave," Shane suddenly said.Sage was taken aback upon hearing this. Had Giselle told Shane about this, too?Seeing Shane looking at her, Sage calmed herself. "You were deceiving Giselle."It's not just this, but also some of our daily interactions. You embellished the details and even went out of your way to act nice to me in front of her."Shane indeed did that before. Sage wasn't at all diffident to talk about it.Shane could see it, too. "S

Taking a deep breath, Sage knocked on the hospital room door.Giselle walked over, glanced down the hallway, and asked with a puzzled expression, "What took you so long? Where did you go?"Sage forced a smile. "There were a lot of people waiting for the elevator."Giselle saw how broken and fragile Sage looked. Thinking she was worried about meeting Shane alone, she couldn't help but gently pat her on the shoulder."It's okay. Take your time talking with Shane. If Selena returns, I'll tell her that everything was my idea."Sage didn't have the energy to explain further to Giselle. She simply said thank you and then walked into the hospital room.Shane sat upright at the head of his bed, dressed in a hospital gown, with bandages still on his head.His handsome face looked a bit thinner than before. Under the hospital room's lighting, he had the delicate appearance of a frail young nobleman.Shane was also quietly observing Sage as she walked over.She had a slender and delicate

Selena nodded. "It's understandable, Ms. Joyner. However, before you go to see Shane, could you take a moment to hear me out?"Sage was aware that Selena had been deliberately waiting for her.Sage sent a message to Giselle saying she would be a few minutes late, and then followed Selena to the stairwell beyond the emergency exit.The stairwell was brightly lit, with gleaming floors and an overall quietness that inexplicably added a sense of oppression.Sage asked, "Ms. Morrison, what do you want to talk to me about?"As soon as she finished speaking, Selena suddenly knelt down in front of her."Ms. Morrison, what are you doing?"Sage hurriedly went to help Selena, but the injuries on her back hadn’t fully healed yet. The movement caused her wounds to hurt, and she winced in pain, furrowing her brow."Ms. Joyner, please don't help me up. Let me finish speaking."Selena's face showed determination, and her almond-shaped eyes, similar to Shane's, had a hint of tears."I know Sh

Since Giselle already knew, Sage didn't deny it. She asked directly, "So what do you think? Are you planning to go abroad with Shane?""Do you even need to ask? Of course I'm not going!"Giselle was somewhat annoyed. "Nothing's going on between Shane and me! Why would they suddenly want me to go abroad with him?""But your brother thinks this is a good opportunity for Shane to develop feelings for you," Tiana said.Sage also shared Marcus' analysis with Giselle. "Your brother hopes that you and Shane will end up together in the end. If you still have some feelings for Shane, this could be a good opportunity.""I couldn't care less about such an opportunity!" Giselle said. "No matter how much I liked Shane, that's all in the past now."I'm not a martyr. I would never degrade myself just to win a man's affection. Besides, even if I gave him everything, what I might get in return could be resentment, not love.""Giselle, you are truly wise and perceptive!" Tiana couldn't help but s
A Farewell After Being Reborn Chapter 878
"However, Elle has become more thoughtful and no longer acts willfully now. I believe that Shane will change his opinion of her."With them spending so much time together, there's a high chance that Shane will develop feelings for Elle."Sage fell silent. People were naturally fragile when they were alone and were easily moved by the care and warmth shown by others, especially considering they would be in a foreign country.Therefore, it seemed highly likely that what Marcus mentioned could happen."Even though my parents agreed to dissolve Elle's engagement, they are quite satisfied with Shane. They watched Shane grow up and know him well."If our two families could be united through marriage, it would be a joyous occasion for everyone."Ms. Joyner, I know that Shane likes you, but he has currently forgotten you. You also understand that it is very difficult for the two of you to be together."Even if Elle didn't accompany him for the treatment abroad, Mr. Morrison Senior would

Marcus put down the gift he was holding and said tactfully, "I've heard about your situation from Elle. I just visited Shane, and I thought I'd drop by to see you as well."Sage thanked Marcus and invited him to sit down. Then, unable to hold back, Sage asked, "How is Shane doing? Is he okay?"Because Shane didn't remember her, and the Morrison family wouldn't allow her to visit, Sage hadn't been able to see Shane in person for the past couple of days.Marcus said, "He's doing okay, more or less. He has multiple injuries, and his hand and leg are not very functional. On top of that, he frequently gets headaches, and his mood is quite unstable.""He probably remembered you, right?" Sage asked intentionally.She could definitely guess that Shane remembered Marcus. However, she wanted to know if Shane still harbored the same hostility toward Marcus.Instead of asking directly because it didn't seem appropriate, she decided to ask a different question instead.Marcus knew what Sage

George acknowledged her with a slight nod, while Simon asked bluntly, "What are you here for?""I heard Shane has woken up and came to check on him," Sage said honestly.Simon's tone was stern as he said, "Ms. Joyner, you should be aware of the current situation with Shane.""We won't hold what happened between you and Shane against you anymore, but we hope you'll stop bothering him in the future and completely cut ties with him."Before Sage could speak, Giselle's voice rang out. "Mr. George, Simon!"Seeing Giselle, Simon's attitude softened a bit.George also had a kind smile on his face. "Have you come to see Shane, Elle?"You see, even though Shane has forgotten so many things, he remembers everything about you very clearly. That shows he still cares about you," joked George.Giselle glanced at Sage and replied with a hint of playfulness, "Mr. George, you really shouldn't joke with me like this."Shane hasn't completely lost his memory, so it's perfectly normal for him to
