A Farewell After Being Reborn Chapter 505
"Mr. Holcomb, everything has been arranged as per your instructions," Terry said.Ian nodded in acknowledgment. "There are no financial dealings between Ms. Stromberg and Ms. Shekdotter. However, there is an issue with the order that the Stromberg family brokered. "I traced it back and found out the following. Please have a look." Terry handed Ian a folder.Ian unsealed it and looked through its contents before frowning. "Bring these to the police station and have a good talk with Delilah.""Will do, Mr. Holcomb."…It was already afternoon when Sage returned to her office in Farsight. As soon as she sat down, Giselle walked in. "Why are you deliberately targeting me at work, Sage?"Sage was perplexed. "Do you suffer from paranoia, Ms. Rosethorn?"Giselle huffed. "Then why didn't you assign me any work? Plus, you went to CureX Pharmaceuticals on your own!""So that's what this is about," Sage thought. But didn't she come to work at Farsight for Shane? Did she actually int

Giselle was still a little reluctant. She pouted. "I don't need you to teach me. There are plenty of people in the company who are more knowledgeable and experienced than you!""How ungrateful!" Just then, Shane walked over and looked at Giselle coldly. "Since you don't respect her, there's no reason for you to work for her. Why don't you just find something else to do instead of hanging out around her all day?""What's the meaning of this, Shane? Are you looking down on me?""Isn't that obvious?""How could you?" Tears welled up in her eyes in an instant.Sage was reminded of her past self when she looked at Giselle in this state. She couldn't help but jump to her defense. "Don't be so harsh on her, Mr. Morrison. Ms. Rosethorn is just a young lady.""Fine! Whatever you say goes!" Shane immediately transformed into a harmless puppy, beaming at her. Sage was rendered speechless. "Don't you ever get tired?" she asked.His eyes shone with affection as he responded, "With you look

"Yes, this is Sage speaking. Is something the matter?" she asked, puzzled.The person on the other end of the line said, "Congratulations! You've won the first prize in our restaurant's anniversary event!"Sage couldn't believe it. After all, she didn't think much of it when the waiter mentioned their anniversary lucky draw when she had dinner with Priscilla and Tiana yesterday. Yet, she had somehow won the first prize!The caller continued to explain that the prize was a two-day trip to the Panda Base for two people. Not only were the flights, accommodations, and tickets covered but there was also a special perk—the opportunity to interact with the panda cubs up close.Initially, she had planned to skip it if it were just a regular trip. But as soon as she heard about this special perk, she was tempted to go. "Is it strictly for two, or can I bring along a third?""It's strictly for two, ma'am. If you wish to bring more friends, you'll have to cover their expenses.""When is thi

Ian visibly relaxed when he spotted her. "I apologize for all the trouble. It was just a false alarm, My wife is fine," he told the people behind him.Sage then noticed there were several hotel staff members standing in her living room. They breathed a sigh of relief when they realized she was unharmed. One of them explained, "Ma'am, according to the rules, we are not supposed to open the door for just anyone. But your husband was very worried because he couldn't reach you. After what happened a few days ago, we didn't dare to delay."Sage nodded in acknowledgment. Even though the hotel had security, it was still a place where all sorts of people gathered, and they couldn't stay on top of everything. After what happened last time, they were genuinely worried that she might have another accident. "It's okay. You guys can head out now," she said."Alright. Please get some rest."After the staff left, she glanced at Ian. "You can leave as well.""Since you were at the hotel, why

His brows were knitted together, probably because his shoulder wound was still throbbing. If it hadn't been for Ian that night, she might've been in serious trouble. He did get injured because of her. Thus, out of respect for Linda, she couldn't bring herself to call the cops and kick him out."You can stay at the hotel if you want, but you can't use this as an excuse to make me accompany you for the scar removal surgery," she said.Ian readily agreed. "Okay."She felt uneasy with how quickly he agreed, so she opened up her phone's camera and said, "Say that again. I'll record it."Ian had a history of going back on his word. She wanted proof to prevent him from reneging on his promise."Do you not trust me, Sage?" he asked through gritted teeth.Sage responded. "I don't."Ian was at a loss for words. In the end, he complied and made a videotaped promise. Relieved, she put her phone away. "Don't sleep on the couch." Sage pulled out a blanket from the hotel closet. "The couch

Sage was at a loss for words. Ignoring him, she turned around and continued her skincare routine. Ian's eyes locked on Sage as he lay on the ground. Her slender figure sat at the dressing table with utmost concentration as she applied creams and lotions to her face. Then, she used a skincare wand to roll over her already rosy cheeks. It enhanced its natural blush.The room was filled with her sweet fragrance, and her presence captivated Ian. Even though he was lying on the floor, he felt strangely content. He had never realized that simply inhaling her scent and watching her go about her day could be such a wonderful experience. These were things he had once taken for granted, and now he could only secretly admire her from afar.After completing her skincare routine and applying hand cream, Sage walked over to her bed. On the carpet beside the couch, Ian had already closed his eyes. Sage dimmed the lights and climbed into bed. After lying in bed for a while, she was unable to f

Sage assumed that Ian had left. Yet, when she emerged from the bathroom after freshening up, she caught a whiff of something delicious wafting from the living room. Sage walked out of her room and found Ian setting up breakfast. On the table weren't just the usual staples like eggs and avocado toasts, but also street food like tacos, hot dogs, and a pot pie. "Good morning," Ian greeted her casually when he noticed her. "I bought these near the hotel. I've prepared something light and heavy.""But the hotel offers a buffet breakfast with a wide variety of options. Why'd you go through all this trouble?" she asked.He responded calmly, "You once said you preferred street food."She did say that. On the rare occasions when he came home for dinner, she would ramble on and on about these things just to spark conversation. He clearly hadn't paid much attention when she said that, so how could he remember these things and bring them up now?Ignoring the expectant look in his eyes, s

Yesterday, she didn't talk to Wilson or cook for him. She never imagined he would tell his mother that she needed his card! Tiana grew impatient as Wendy lectured her over the phone. Initially, she was going to say a few words to placate her, but she accidentally hung up on Wendy. Since the call was already disconnected, she couldn't be bothered to call Wendy back and listen to her nonsense. Later on, Wendy called again, but Tiana decisively turned off her phone. She figured her mother-in-law would come straight to their house, so she grabbed her bag and went out to watch a movie. Ever since she got married, she hardly did anything fun. Besides the occasional outing with Sage, she spent most of her time with her family. There were endless chores and rules to follow, day in, and day out.Sage often teased her, claiming that she only had eyes for her husband and spent all her time with him. In reality, Wilson hardly got any days off. Even when he did, he preferred solitude and rar

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

"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
