A Farewell After Being Reborn Chapter 338
Layla was in a good mood, and she didn't notice anything amiss in Sage's words. She left happily. Sage breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, Layla had brought up the subject on her own. Otherwise, she wouldn't have known how far things would've gone.It was almost time to meet with Henry. Sage sent him a message and told him that she had returned to Haldon. Sure enough, he invited her to meet up tomorrow afternoon. Setting her phone down, she felt a little stuffy. Sage walked over to the balcony and intended to sit on the deck chair for a while. But she noticed Ian standing on the balcony of the next-door guest bedroom.He was dressed in the dark blue pajamas she had bought. He looked tall and handsome, almost like he had just walked out of a painting. Ian was absorbed in a work call at the moment. He was incredibly meticulous at work, and his commanding presence made people submit to him.Ian noticed her after he hung up the phone. Sage didn't avert her gaze. The couple loo

Tiana said, "Ian's handling of Ivy certainly left much to be desired. But I heard from Calvin that there was some misunderstanding. Ian still cares for you. If you're not that set about the divorce, I'll support your decision as well."Her remark confused Sage. She mused, "So, Tiana, did you ask to meet up over this? I thought you knew I wanted a divorce.""Yes, I know your decision was firm. But what I want to know is why didn't you take precautions during sex?" Tiana wondered aloud.She couldn't believe that Sage and Ian had slept with each other in the heat of the moment without using any birth control.Sage, still perplexed, questioned, "What precautions?"Tiana stared at her friend helplessly. "Sage Joyner, are you dumb or are you just pretending to be dumb? You're pregnant!""Pregnant?" Sage screamed in shock as she jolted up from the bed. The hair serum dripped from her hair and made a mess everywhere.Even the customers in the next room jumped at the sudden commotion, wh

"Oh, a pregnancy can be detected within 10 days, let alone 20 days." Tiana, despite knowing what she was feeling, reminded Sage. "Sage, we can go back for a second checkup, but brace yourself. You're likely to get the same result."Feeling overwhelmed, Sage agreed, "Let's go to the hospital."Tiana immediately stopped her. "You need to dry your hair first no matter how rushed you are. Take some time to calm down."Sage sat limply as Tiana helped her to dry her hair. Then, the two women exited the salon. Tiana said, "Give me your car keys. I'm driving." Sage did not insist on driving and obediently handed the keys to Tiana.Meanwhile, a finely dressed woman emerged from a room in the salon. The stylist inquired, "Madam, would you like a styling session?"Flashing a polite yet indifferent smile, the lady declined. "It's fine. I have to leave."…Sage stood in the hospital corridor, clutching the report which indicated that she was three weeks pregnant. She felt as though she had b

"Do I need to make an appointment right away?" Sage questioned.Tiana shook her head. "No, you don't have to. We can only schedule the abortion after checking the fetus' development. Come on. I'll send you to the hotel."Tiana helped Sage up from the bench. Only then did she realize that Sage's palms were sweaty. Feeling sorry for Sage, she advised, "Sage, you can keep the baby if you want, you know?"Sure, there will be a risk to the baby's health because you were under hallucinogens when you got pregnant. But you've always been healthy. The risk is relatively low."Why don't you opt for a comprehensive checkup at a later stage?""There's no need for that. Let's go." Sage shook her head hopelessly.Tiana did not try to persuade Sage anymore. She simply assumed that Sage needed more time to process the sudden news. Since Tiana had to work in the afternoon, Sage stayed at the hotel alone. Tiana, however, was very worried about her. "Are you really okay? Do you want me to take a

Giselle's unexpected arrival surprised Sage. She recalled the incident where Giselle stormed out of the airport parking lot, furious at her and Shane. She wondered if Giselle was here to cause a scene because of that incident."Ms. Joyner, please open the door. I have something to ask you," Giselle said solemnly while staring at the peephole after hearing Sage's footsteps on the other side.Sage reluctantly answered the door. She assumed that she was safe within the confines of the hotel. Besides, she couldn't dodge Giselle forever. Even if the latter was here to stir trouble, they would soon become colleagues.Giselle marched through the door into the room. Sage kindly handed her a bottle of water, but Giselle declined, "I'm not drinking that!"Huffing and puffing, Giselle seemed to have teared up. She had a mix of despair, envy, and frustration on her face."Ms. Rosethorn, what's wrong? Did someone upset you?" questioned Sage with a puzzled look. That only further provoked Gis
A Farewell After Being Reborn Chapter 343
Only then did Sage realize that Giselle wasn't at Haldon City that eventful night. Still, she was baffled by Giselle's logic. "Ms. Rosethorn, how can you be sure that I'm carrying Shane's baby?"Although she had a lukewarm relationship with Ian, she was still married to him. How could Giselle be so sure that she wasn't pregnant with Ian's baby?"Whose child could it possibly be? Your marriage must be rocky because you've moved into a hotel. An unhappy couple would not be making babies!" Giselle growled furiously. "What's more, your husband hasn't shown up yet, so I assume you are too scared to tell him about the pregnancy. The only explanation is that you're pregnant with Shane's child!"Sage stared at Giselle incredulously, feeling astonished at the latter's "remarkable" analytical skills. They could even rival Shane's. In some way, Giselle and Shane were a good match. Although Shane had nothing to do with Sage's pregnancy, Sage had decided not to inform Ian about the matter. S

Giselle reluctantly rose from her seat. But before leaving, she warned, "I will not let this slide if you don't abort the child!" With that, she slammed the door shut, venting her anger.Sighing, Sage realized that she had lost her appetite. After giving it some thought, she dialed Shane's number."My lovely Sage, what's up? It's rare of you to call me," Shane replied flippantly. He seemed to be in a great mood.Firstly, Sage asked him about the construction site issue. He assured her that it was a false alarm before saying, "No doubt, Ian was behind it."As he spoke, Sage heard some noise coming from the other end. It sounded like a chair spinning. "Ms. Joyner, judging from that, Ian Holcomb seems to care about you."Sage did not want to talk about Ian, so she got straight to the point. "Shane, I have some good news and bad news. Which one would you like to hear first?""Why? Have you come across some tough projects?" Shane questioned lackadaisically.She decided to tease him.
A Farewell After Being Reborn Chapter 345
Sage did not continue bickering with Shane. She admitted, "I do not plan to tell Ian about the pregnancy, and I do not intend to keep the baby. I'm still waiting for the right time to have the surgery, but if Ian learns about my pregnancy, I hope you will step up."If Ian learned about her pregnancy, he would be unlikely to agree to the divorce, be it out of a sense of responsibility or otherwise. Not only that, he might get the older family members to pressure her into moving back to Solaris Estate. Therefore, Sage thought of getting Shane to take the blame for the time being."Tsk! I can't believe you. You're so insistent on divorce to the point that you're even keeping a pregnancy a secret from him," Shane commented, feeling amused."So are you helping me or not?" she pressed."I can take the blame, but I never make a bad bargain. What do I get out of this?" he asked.Sage honestly revealed, "You gain nothing out of this. But if you refuse to help me, I'll tell Giselle that I

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
