A Farewell After Being Reborn Chapter 289
" So, the only way you can get Ian to divorce you is if you do something drastic, like convince him that you've cheated on him."Even though he was spouting nonsense, she found herself hesitating. Ian was a proud, arrogant, and possessive man. Even though he didn't love her, he was still unhappy when he saw her getting close to Michael. If he found out that she shared a room with Shane, he would most probably be so angry that he'd dump her on the spot."So which is it? Do you not want Ian to get the wrong idea, or do you not want to get a divorce?" he asked.Sage rolled her eyes at Shane. "Let's not talk about my personal affairs right now. Even if we stir up this huge misunderstanding, Ms. Rosethorn might not back off. What if she starts hating me and decides to come after me?"Shane smiled wickedly. "Well, you're on your own then, Ms. Joyner."Sage was rendered speechless. He still sported a mischievous grin. "Come on, it's only two hours. You could trade it for a night or m

"Sage, you're here as well!" It wasn't Donald who responded, but Delilah. Sage's brows drew together when she looked at the half-peeled apple in Delilah's hand. "What brings you here?"Delilah smiled and said, "It's been a while since I've seen Grandpa Joyner. I just came to check on him." Delilah used to drop by often, so she was well acquainted with Donald. However, she hadn't been here in two years. Surely, she wasn't here just to visit her grandfather."Sage, you're here!" Just then, Donald walked out. "Delilah just arrived not long ago. She said she was free, so she came to keep me company."Sage didn't immediately chase Delilah away when she noticed her grandfather was in good spirits. Instead, she accompanied him into the house and handed him the snacks she purchased. "Have some of these, Grandpa. I need to talk to Delilah for a bit."Then, she dragged Delilah to the garden outside. "Spill. What's the real reason for your visit here?"Delilah sounded a bit hurt. "Grandp

She received a picture from Henry. In the picture, Shane held onto her arm as they walked into the hotel lobby. "Ms. Joyner, what do you think your husband's reaction will be if he sees this?" Henry asked.Sage chuckled. She thought that she would receive a warning from Giselle first. In the end, Henry was the first person who sought her out."What do you want to do?" Sage asked. "Don't worry, Ms. Joyner. My lips are sealed tight. In addition, you're Layla's cousin. I would never run my mouth. Sending this picture to you is just a friendly reminder for you to be more careful in the future." How could Sage be unaware of Henry's plans? He merely thought that her love for Ian had morphed into hatred and was doing this to get even. Henry also wanted to get something out of it. After all, he thought she was a dumb, rich, and naive girl he could easily swindle. "Let's get coffee together when you're free." Sage offered. Since Henry thought that he had gotten material to blackmail

"Thank you for giving me a heads up, Priscilla. I'll be mindful," Sage thanked Priscilla. Afterward, the two chatted for a while longer before ending their call. After hanging up the phone, Sage furrowed her brows. If someone had really been planning her abduction, there would've been no avoiding the fact that Ivy was involved somehow. After all, Ivy was the only one who had beef with her. When she thought of how she had nearly been raped, Sage clenched her fist. She would retaliate with everything she had against Ivy. Trying hard to calm herself, Sage walked into the living room. "Sage, I've prepared a fruit platter and your favorite fruit salad. Come have a taste!" Delilah brought a fruit platter out and greeted her casually. Sage chased her out coldly. "Delilah, my advice for you is to stop wasting your time here. I'll never be fooled again by your deceiving appearances."You don't have to deny it or pretend to be pitiful. Since I've said this, it means I am aware of what y

Yesterday afternoon he had hung up on her angrily and said that they would get a divorce the second he came back. He even warned her not to regret it. Logically speaking, there should've been no interaction between them until he came back. So why did he contact her? Sage picked up the phone and greeted him, but there was only silence on the line. "Ian?" Sage asked hesitantly. He remained silent. "Is there no signal on your side? I'm going to hang up on you if you don't say anything," Sage said as she prepared to hang up. The sound of Ian's coughs rang out on the other end. Following that, she heard Ian's hoarse voice. "Sage, I'm hungry." When she thought of what he had posted on Instagram, Sage was speechless. "Why are you calling me when you're hungry instead of buying food for yourself?" Ian let out two more coughs before saying hoarsely, "You bragged about your secret porridge recipe." Bragging? She had just been sharing information with him. "So?" "Tell me the recip

Sage was entertained by Michael and decided to give him a call. "So you're working hard to make money just to pay off your debt to me?" "Of course not!" Michael explained rather nervously, "I'm just…" Halfway through his explanation, Michael realized he didn't know what to say next. Thus, he changed the topic entirely. "Sage, I heard the production team say that there'll be a formal dinner if we get into the top 30. I will be able to bring a friend. If I manage to get in, will you come?" Sage laughed. "Of course." Seeing a normal person transform into an idol right before her eyes was a unique experience. She couldn't pass up the opportunity!…The next day, as Sage climbed lazily out of bed, she saw that Josephine and Linda had each given her a call. She had put her phone on silent last night, so she hadn't heard it ring. Sage hastily returned Linda's call. "Grandma, are you looking for me?" Linda asked her to make a trip to Holcolm Manor in hurried tones. Not knowing what

Ten hours later, Sage arrived at the airport in Morita. Terry must've received the news from Linda. When she walked out of the arrival hall with her bags, he was already waiting for her. Terry said politely, "Mr. Holcomb is feeling unwell and resting in the hotel. I was worried that there would be a change in your travel plans, so I didn't tell him that you would be coming over." What changes in her travel plans? He was just worried that she'd change her mind and not come. Sage ignored his remark and asked, "How's Ian? Has he gone to the doctor?" "He has a bit of a fever and a cough. He's had some medicine, but hasn't been to see a doctor." Terry explained, "The main issue is that the weather here is cold, and Mr. Holcomb didn't wear enough layers. He caught a cold but refused to rest. Instead, he continued working. In addition, he hasn't had a good meal in ages, which is why it became so serious." Sage couldn't help but roll her eyes at him internally. What a perfect model o

Seeing his feeble movements, Sage didn't continue pissing him off and said, "Why are you getting up if you're feeling unwell? Lay back down." "Come help me over," Ian said. Sage didn't say refuse. She walked over to help him back into bed. A computer was placed by his bedside table. He probably worked in bed too. "I'm thirsty," said Ian. Considering that he was sick, Sage went outside to get some water for him. However, the water here was all refrigerated. There wasn't even room-temperature water, let alone warm water. Sage therefore boiled some water with a kettle. The suite was equipped with a simple kitchen. However, it was spotless. Clearly, no one had ever touched it. Did that mean that Ian didn't even make the porridge after calling her to ask for the recipe? After the water boiled, Sage poured Ian a glass of it. When she brought it into the room, she saw Ian typing away on his computer. Sage complained, "It's not like you can finish your work now. Why don't you res

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
