When Wilson got back home, Tiana immediately called him into the kitchen to ask about Lana.

"What did Wilson say?" Sage asked.

Tiana's expression stayed neutral as she replied, "He thinks it's all in the past, so it's not worth discussing."

"In the past? Sounds like he's just avoiding the topic!" Sage remarked.

Sage was getting a bit annoyed. "So, how did you hurt your hand? You're always cooking. How did this accident happen?"

"I burned myself at my mother-in-law's place," Tiana admitted.

Tiana expressed her frustration with Wilson keeping things from her by insisting he cook for himself, saying she wasn't going to cater to his ex. When Wilson ignored her and tried to leave, she tried to stop him.

In the struggle, Tiana accidentally bumped into the pot that had been boiling on the stove, spilling scalding soup onto her hand.

Despite Wilson offering some basic first aid, the burn required more extensive treatment at the hospital.

But Wendy blamed Tiana for causing a fuss, say

    Wilson's first love coming back to town two months later and winning over Wendy, just like in their past lives, was Sage's worst nightmare coming true.Tiana handed the phone back to Sage. "I'll discuss this with Wilson first.""What more is there to discuss?" Sage asked. "Tiana, men often overlook what they have easily. If you forgive him so readily, he'll never truly appreciate you!"The mere thought of Tiana's past experiences made Sage desperate for her to distance herself from Wilson.Tiana looked over at Sage. Her tone was sincere yet determined. "Sage, I get where you're coming from, but Wilson means a lot to me as my first love. "I just can't bear the thought of letting him go, even if things don't work out in the end. I want us to part ways, if it comes to that, without any regrets or misunderstandings."Tiana appeared confident and strong on the surface. But deep down, she was extremely vulnerable. Losing her parents early in life left her craving the warmth of a lovin

    Terry noticed that Ian hadn't been in the best mood lately. But luckily, Ian did a good job of keeping his own emotions in check and not taking it out on his employees.After their lunch meeting, Ian was supposed to come back for another meeting. But for some reason, he changed his plans and went to visit a hospital.When Ian returned, he looked even worse than he had in the past few days. It felt like the whole president's office was frozen with his frosty demeanor.Natalie, one of the secretaries, walked into Ian's office with a document for him to sign. She couldn't help but feel a chill down her spine when she approached the door.Natalie looked to Terry for help. However, he simply gave her a sympathetic shrug, indicating she was on her own. Unfortunately, luck wasn't on Natalie's side as Ian spotted a minor error in the document."Take it back and fix it!" Ian snapped, slamming the folder down on the desk. "What's going on with all of you? How could you mess up something so

    Henry tossed the pile of papers aside in frustration. "Look, Sage is Layla's cousin. I'm just trying to get closer to Layla. What's wrong with having some connection to Sage?"Ivy scoffed, "You're supposedly pursuing Layla, but you're going to the same boxing gym as Sage and constantly messaging her privately? It seems like you believe Sage is a better option than Layla and want to pursue her too!""Okay, so what if I do?" Henry shrugged, not bothered by Ivy's accusations. "You clearly don't like Sage anyway. If I can take care of her as well, isn't that solving a problem for you?"Ivy had told Henry to do whatever it took to win over Layla, earn her trust, and become part of the Joyner family. But she never brought up Sage.Little did Ivy know, but while Henry was focusing on Layla, he had his eyes on Sage too. There was even plenty of secret communication between them."As if Sage would go for you," Ivy sneered. She couldn't imagine Sage being interested in Henry, especially con

    "Henry, never forget that I granted you and Aunt Sandra the life you have now." Ivy's voice carried a cold, cutting edge. "If it weren't for me, your reckless fight that left crippled someone would have landed you in prison." Sandra, sensing the rising tension, hurriedly intervened. "Ivy, calm down. Henry remembers it. We'll do everything we can to assist you." Sandra gave Henry a gentle nudge, signaling him to speak up. "It's useless to blame me now. With the terrible situation now, how can we salvage the company?" Henry responded. Despite the boiling rage within her, Ivy shot a piercing glare at Henry. "Aunt Sandra, please leave us," Ivy commanded. With a sigh, Sandra exited, leaving Ivy and Henry to face each other. "Don't act oblivious. Not even divine intervention can save the company now. Do you how much money I've invested in this project?" Ivy's voice was sharp with accusation. "All these losses were because of your negligence. You must bear the consequences!"

    "Sage, you can't keep living in hotels. Find a place near the company, and I'll cover the expenses," Donald suggested. Sage politely declined. "Grandpa, it's not necessary. I can afford to buy my own place." Donald chuckled. "Look at you, all grown up and independent. Wasn't it you who once said you'd never buy a house because you'd always be with Ian?" During her college years, Donald offered to get Sage an apartment in the city for her convenience once she started working.However, she firmly turned him down as she was confident that she would marry and live with Ian. She thought buying a house was unnecessary. Back then, her heart was filled only with Ian, and she believed that they would never part. Reflecting on it now, she realized how naive that was. She could still have her own space even after marriage. "Grandpa, stop making fun of me!" Sage pouted. "Let's not bring up the past." "Alright, alright, no more teasing!" The next morning, Sage entered Farsight Inves

    Shane's demeanor soured at the mention of his name. "The doctor rattled off a list of his health issues. But after consulting a specialist, they seem to be merely minor issues." Craving a breath of fresh air, Shane retracted the car's roof. The atmosphere lifted instantly, transforming the sports car into an open-top convertible. "I wonder who told Dad about my ongoing feud with Ian, prompting him to summon me back." Despite his refusal to tell her earlier, Sage's curiosity was piqued. "Why do you have such a strong dislike for Ian?" Shane's voice turned icy. "He owes me, and I plan to settle the score." "What could he possibly owe you?" Sage probed. Knowing it couldn't be financial, given the affluence of both the Morrisons and Holcombs, Sage pressed on. Shane drove on in silence, clearly reluctant to elaborate. Growing impatient, Sage cleaned her hands with a tissue. "Shane, if you've got something to say, just spill it. What's the point in being cryptic?" As luck wou

    Sage sighed deeply. "I'm afraid too. Terrified, actually." "Coward—" Shane was cut off as Calvin's car zipped past them. As the vehicle sped by, Sage's eyes instinctively met Calvin's cautious smile, while Ian's expression remained cold and inscrutable. "If you're hesitant to let them go, I could speed up and tail them," Shane teased. Sage shot Shane a disdainful look. "Childish." Driving a good distance ahead, Calvin checked the rearview mirror to ensure Shane and Sage weren't following them. He breathed a sigh of relief, genuinely concerned earlier that Ian might attempt to seize the wheel to crash into Shane's car. While Shane might survive a collision, what if Sage got hurt? Who would bear that responsibility? Noting Ian's quiet demeanor, Calvin jestingly remarked, "Ian, isn't Sage part of Farsight Investment now? She and Shane must have some business, which explains their outing." "Do you discuss business in a sports convertible without a chauffeur or secretary?"

    The woman was strikingly beautiful, and her voice was soft and gentle. A glint of concern in her dazzling eyes stirred a protective instinct in anyone who looked her way. Sage flashed her a reassuring smile. "No worries." "What's going on?" Shane ended his call and approached the ladies.Observing the woman's concern for the kitten, Sage chose to keep the minor incident to herself. "It's nothing. Let's go." With a nonchalant shrug, Shane followed her into the teahouse. The teahouse exuded an ageless charm and radiated an air of grace and antiquity. On the ground floor, a harpist played amidst soft fountains and a delicate mist, lending an almost otherworldly atmosphere to the main hall. A waiter led them upstairs to a private room. The second floor was a sanctuary, with antique furnishings and the comforting aroma of tea, which provided an immediate calmness to the soul. Perhaps it was an illusion, but Sage detected another faint fragrance—a subtle, sweet scent. It was per

    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

    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

    "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
