A Farewell After Being Reborn Chapter 601
Giselle's cool remark came as a relief for Sage, and even more so for Shane. Shane, who was in the middle of a drinking bet with Calvin, set his glass down and went over to Giselle when he overheard her talking about calling off the engagement. "Have you finally come around?"Giselle concealed her disappointment from him and scoffed. "I never liked you that much in the first place. I was just misled by our parents. Now, I'm free from heartache, and it's your turn to experience it. I hope you get it worse than me!"As if that wasn't enough, she turned to Sage. "Sage, I'll leave him to you now!"Feeling both entertained and speechless, Sage did not reply to Giselle. Shane nonchalantly remarked, "It's good. I don't mind suffering a little heartache for Sage. A good life is made up of various new experiences, after all!"Sage and Giselle stared at him wordlessly.Calvin, unhappy to see Shane close to Sage, challenged him. "Hey, Shane, are you chickening out? Let's keep on drinking!

Ian remained close to her. He trapped her with an arm and said, "You have agreed to accept me as one of your suitors. Yet, you are still hostile to me, unlike how you treated Shane."He recalled the way Shane had unabashedly left the company in Sage's car. When Sage left the Tate family, she made Shane drive her and Tiana home. On top of that, their chemistry in the lounge pissed him off.Looking up, she glared at him. "I'm being nice by not kicking you out!"Holding his temper in, he couldn't help but hug her. "My Sage, I promise that nothing from your dream would actually happen. Don't hate me, please."She was surprised by his words. Even if the past events did not reoccur in this life, the trauma wouldn't go away. Just as she opened her mouth, she heard Giselle shouting at her. "Sage Joyner!" She turned around and met Giselle's eyes. Giselle gasped. "Oh, is this why you've been away forever? You're hanging out with Mr. Holcomb?"Sage shoved Ian away in frustration and shame.

Sage felt slightly stung when Ian brought up the abortion. Indeed, she had been resentful of him because he had forced her into an abortion. She hated the fact that he had stopped her from strangling Ivy, and for refusing to believe that she was carrying his child.However, when she calmed down and gave it more thought, she realized that it was her fault for misleading Ian in the first place by claiming that Shane was the father.Besides, given Ian's skeptical personality, his distrust did not come as a surprise.She shrugged his hand off and mumbled, "I don't resent you. It's all in the past anyway."After that, she paid no more attention to him and headed back to the lounge.…That night, Tiana successfully got herself drunk. Sage had to help her into a cab at the end of the night.In the cab, Tiana rested her head on Sage's shoulder and muttered, "Sage, I feel so relieved and exhilarated. The last two years were so frustrating.""Right? You should have let go earlier." Sage

Michael remained popular and in demand after his recent win. Sage dared not make him pick her up to avoid media attention and any subsequent scandals.She changed into a slightly formal evening dress. She didn't pay much attention to her attire, thinking that her attendance at the charity dinner was merely to fill seats. After she put on some simple makeup and styled her hair into a bun, she drove to the event venue from Donald's place.Upon arrival, she realized that Michael had understated the scale of the event. The grand charity dinner was graced by the presence of some celebrities and notable figures in Haldon City, alongside multiple media outlets.Feeling like a fish out of water, she nonetheless thought she should at least meet up with Michael and offer him some words of encouragement since she was already there.She presented her invitation card and wandered into the venue. Right when she planned to call Michael, she noticed a handsome figure approaching her. "Ms. Joyn

Abby showed up in a soft pink haute couture evening dress with a matching hime cut. Her pink-toned makeup further enhanced her lovely, demure appearance. She linked arms with a man in his 50s.The towering man was dressed in a tuxedo. Though he seemed gentle and reserved, he carried himself with an authoritative air."This is my dad." Abby introduced Dale to Sage. "I forced him to come to the charity dinner because my favorite piece of jewelry is on auction tonight!"She then introduced Sage to Dale. "Dad, this is Sage Joyner. She took care of me when we were at Southbend County!""Thank you, Ms. Joyner, for taking care of Abby," Dale said warmly.Sage replied graciously, "Mr. Sutton, don't mention it. It was no trouble at all.""Ms. Joyner, let me know if you have any piece of jewelry in mind. I'll bid it for you as a thank-you gift!" Abby offered.Sage shook her head with a smile. "It's fine. Think about it, I didn't help you much. Besides, I'm just here to visit a friend, not

Sage nodded. "Sure."Some guests approached Dale for a chat. Seeing that, Sage excused herself and made her way to the balcony.The sky had darkened, and the city's skyline was lit up brightly. Holding the railing, she enjoyed the brilliant night view.Soon, Michael found her on the balcony and joined her. He first apologized for leaving her alone, but she stopped him. Then, he brought up his bandmates, who had been talking nonstop about meeting Sage.Sage readily agreed. "Of course. Let's meet up. By the way, I was thinking of recommending you as a brand ambassador for my friend's distillery.""Mimosa Cellar?" Michael blurted out before blushing shyly. "I remember that brand because you once went viral on Twitter because of how you downed their vodka."Surprised by his memory of such a distant incident, she nodded. "Yeah. I have some stocks in Mimosa. The company is applying for an IPO, which is why it's looking for a suitable brand ambassador to promote the brand."Michael imm

Michael stared at Ian, perplexed. "What's the matter, Mr. Holcomb?""Your suit isn't from the latest season," Ian commented flatly. Now, even Sage was confused by Ian's intentions. Did he stop Michael just to comment on Michael's attire? But Ian wasn't the type who'd pay attention to fashion details.Michael glanced at his suit but did not find anything amiss. He admitted, "Yeah. I've owned this for a few months. Anything wrong with that?""Mike said that he wore this suit to the event because it was meaningful for him," Dave chimed in. "If there are any concerns regarding the suit, we're open to making adjustments."Dave, being a seasoned expert, was acutely conscious of Ian Holcomb's social standing. They couldn't risk offending Ian, someone even the event host sought to please.Ian chuckled and casually inquired, "How meaningful is the suit to you?"Michael replied calmly, "I'm sorry, Mr. Holcomb. I don't feel comfortable sharing details of my personal life with you.""Watc

"You don't remember?" Sage found the notion incredulous. "Ian Holcomb, are you denying what you've done?"She rattled off, "You spent our 5th anniversary celebrating Ivy Shekdotter's birthday. Did you not buy her flowers? You rushed to the hospital at night to visit her when she was injured by a falling lamp. Didn't you buy two pairs of identical earrings, one for her and one for me?"Ian found her accusations ridiculous. "Uncle Ron called me to their place on that day. I had no idea it was Ivy's birthday, so I couldn't have bought her flowers."As for the diamond earrings, I have not bought anything of that sort. The diamond earrings I gave you were from Ivy. "I admit I was wrong to give you a gift from her, but I thought it'd make your day because you seemed moody that day. That's why I accepted the earrings Ivy prepared."Sage was stunned by Ian's revelation. Did Ivy stage the photo with the flowers and add the caption to annoy her?What about the earrings? Sage thought, "Did

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
