A Farewell After Being Reborn Chapter 526
After saying that stoically, Ian walked toward the elevator.Terry sighed quietly. He had assumed that Ian's call with Sage would mark a turning point, but it seemed that wasn't the case. Alas, there was no hope of his bonus being restored this month.…Meanwhile, Ian arrived at Calvin's place. The latter had changed into sportswear and was fixing his hair in front of the mirror. He was quite surprised to see Ian. "What brings you here, Ian?"Ian plopped down on his couch and glanced at him. "Where are you off to?"Calvin combed his hair back to make himself look sporty and energetic. "Tiana told me that several hospitals in town will be hosting a volleyball tournament next week. "There aren't a lot of people in their hospital who can play, so they have to invite some from elsewhere. I happen to be free, so I thought I'd join in the fun!"Ian arched his brow when he heard that. "Tiana? When did you and Ms. Ford become so close?"Calvin chuckled. "Tiana said we're friends and
A Farewell After Being Reborn Chapter 527
Calvin didn't want Ian to come along because he was genuinely worried about upsetting Tiana. However, it wasn't merely because Ian wasn't invited. It was because he was aware that Tiana wasn't fond of Ian because of what happened with Sage. If he brought Ian along without telling Tiana, she might lash out at him. Even if she could suppress her anger, who'd be able to have a good time playing volleyball when Ian was standing there like a block of ice? Hence, it would be better if Ian sat this one out.Noticing Ian's expression harden, Calvin plastered a smile on his face and came up with a plausible excuse. "Ian, when Tiana called me, she didn't mention Mrs. Holcomb would be there. So you wouldn't be able to do anything even if you went. Why don't you head back to work? After all, you seem quite busy!"Ian glanced at him, clearly seeing right through him. With a stoic expression, he rose to his feet and walked out of the door before Calvin could say anything else."Don't worry
A Farewell After Being Reborn Chapter 528
"Would I be wasting your time by calling you over to help us with the tournament?" Tiana asked. Calvin responded with a smile, "Of course not! You're not like the others. Besides being Mrs. Holcomb's best friend, you're also my friend. For a friend, I'd do more than just join a match. I'd go all out!"When she heard that, she couldn't help but tease him. "I doubt you'd be able to go all out. After all, you'd faint at the sight of blood."His cheeks heated up when she pointed out his weakness. "I don't faint every time I see blood… Besides, I'm a pretty good fighter. I could easily take on three people at once!""I believe you!" Tiana nodded earnestly.When he noticed her reaction, Calvin couldn't help but burst into laughter, and a good chunk of his embarrassment faded away. He scratched the back of his head and said, "I have no idea why, but I feel dizzy and lightheaded whenever I see blood. A lot of people think I fake it to avoid danger."“It's okay. Hemophobia isn't a rare
A Farewell After Being Reborn Chapter 529
Judging by Calvin's reaction, Tiana could guess what was going on. "Did Ian organize the lucky draw and also rig it to have Sage win?" asked Tiana. Calvin nodded and said, "Ian is really trying to win Sage back. Don't let Sage know about this, will you?" Tiana obviously knew that Sage would refuse to go if she found out about Ian's arrangements."But how is Ian going to attend with Sage? The lucky draw is a pair event. Sage already found another partner after Priscilla and I said we were busy," said Tiana."Who's her partner?" asked Calvin.Tiana said nothing and picked up her cup of coffee. She lifted it slightly and said, "Let's have some coffee first." Calvin clinked his cup with hers and took a hasty sip. "Tiana, cut to the chase. Hurry up and tell me who Sage is going with! I'm dying to know." Tiana put down her cup and said casually, "Shane Morrison."Calvin slammed his cup on the table loudly. He looked flabbergasted. "Shane?!" He couldn't believe his ears. "How
A Farewell After Being Reborn Chapter 530
Tiana didn't really care about whether Ian recognized his own feelings. Last time, Ian had carried the injured Ivy off right in front of Sage and ignored her. It was time for Ian to get a taste of his own medicine! Of course, Tiana didn't tell Calvin what she was thinking. She refilled his coffee and raised her own cup. "Cheers to our little secret," she said. "Cheers!"…Sage had just gotten back to the office when Shane phoned her to summon her to his office. "You had lunch with Giselle?" asked Shane.He was sitting at his desk like he had nothing better to do, and he had his legs atop the desk. "Yeah. Is something the matter?" said Sage."Don't tell me you shared with her some tips on how to chase after a guy?" joked Shane.Sage knew that he was indirectly teasing her about how she had once tried to win Ian's heart.She rolled her eyes and said, "Mr. Morrison, narcissism is a disorder. You should get treated for it. Giselle only wants to focus on her career now. Sh
A Farewell After Being Reborn Chapter 531
"Sage, are you trying to tell me that you don't like me being too close with other girls?" said Shane.Sage scoffed. "I'm telling you that I don't want you as my partner. You can use the time to have your own fun!" Her words felt like a slap to him, and he sat down again and crossed his legs. "Sage, just stop complaining. I'll tell my driver to pick you up so we can depart together tomorrow. I'll also ask someone to email you the details of the project. Study it well so you'll be prepared."Sage knew that he was unpredictable. If he insisted on her following him for the site visit, then any more resistance on her part was just a waste of time. "I'll look through the project details and follow you on the site visit, but you don't have to leave tomorrow. You can come in two days, and we'll meet in Southbend County," she said."No!" Shane snorted. "Giselle hasn't called off the engagement yet. She obviously hasn't given up! How will I keep up the act of being your loyal admirer i

"Hey, Sage. Did you just get back?" Tiana greeted Sage naturally. She seemed to be in a good mood. Sage couldn't help but ask, "Why were you with Calvin?"Tiana told her about the upcoming sports competition at the hospital and said that she had dinner with Calvin.Sage nodded and asked with a smile, "I think Calvin has a thing for you and you two get along pretty well. Any plans for another relationship?"Tiana shook her head and said, "No. I don't think he sees me that way. I think it's because he seldom meets women like me, so he finds me interesting." "Wow. You can tell what he thinks of you?" Sage was surprised.Tiana rolled her eyes. "I only sensed it today. He's very formal with my younger colleagues, but he's very nice and thoughtful toward me. You might be the reason, but I still think he treats me somewhat differently.""Isn't that a good thing? Calvin comes from a way better family than Wilson. Hurry up, get rid of Wilson, and give Calvin a chance. You should show y
A Farewell After Being Reborn Chapter 533
Giselle had just teased her about Shane in the office that day, and Sage was a little tired of it. "Hold up! Shane and I are nothing more than colleagues," she said."Sage, don't tell me you still can't forget Ian?"Sage rolled her eyes and said, "I never go back to my exes." They reached the room amidst chatter and laughter. They had just sat down when Tiana's phone buzzed. It was a text from Wilson."I need to attend a seminar in Bilstrom tomorrow for a week. Since you usually take care of my stuff, could you come back to help me pack?" Sage saw the text and said angrily, "He needs you to help him pack for a business trip? Does he think you're his mother? Tiana, just ignore him!" Tiana looked a little disappointed as she put her phone away. "I won't bother." "If he's leaving for a week, then won't your divorce have to be delayed? Your divorce can't be trickier than mine, can it?" said Sage. "Do you want some water? I'll get you some," said Tiana. Sage knew that Tiana

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
