A Farewell After Being Reborn Chapter 697
Sandy wasn't doing well. She sat in a corner blankly and refused to speak to anyone. Sage felt sorry for her. Sandy was just a young girl, but she didn't have any of the brightness and energy of a girl her age. She even had to endure other people's discrimination and looks of pity. Sage thought of the lilies Sandy had drawn before and asked a helper to fetch some so she could cheer Sandy up with them. Sandy took the lilies, but she didn't say much. She looked tired and leaned against Matilda. Matilda hugged her with tears in her eyes. Sage took her leave quietly.Ian stood by the door and stared at Sandy and Matilda. He seemed to be thinking of something and his expression was a little cold.Matilda had left the country when Ian was just around ten years old and seldom came back. Ian had never been so close to his mother.Ian was pale from his injury and his expression looked forlorn. Sage said softly, "Every mother on earth loves her children. I think Aunt Matilda just doesn'

The police had no choice but to give up because Ivy hadn't recovered from her injuries, and she was being too aggressive. Sage wasn't surprised at the news. There was no way Ivy would cooperate when she was stuck in a situation like that. Shane had gotten wind of it too, and he told Sage that he would keep putting pressure on the police to prove that Ivy was faking her mental illness. Sage still didn't feel too optimistic. Leo wouldn't let anyone expose Ivy so easily if he already provided evidence.As expected, the police received an official letter from Toledonese officials the next day saying that they had concluded the case. There were even new medical documents on Ivy's condition. The police accepted the conclusion. Therefore, Ivy wouldn't be prosecuted for her crimes, but she would be locked up in a mental hospital. Sandra had also returned to the country two days ago. The Shekdotters couldn't find evidence that she was pretending to be crazy, so she was put away in th

Tiana went pale when she saw them. Sage looked in the same direction and spotted Wilson's mother and Lana. Wendy and Lana were walking arm in arm. They were so close that they looked like mother and daughter.They must have heard Tiana saying that divorce was the way to go because Wendy looked displeased. Lana's expression looked normal. She even greeted Tiana. "Tiana, what a coincidence. Are you here to shop with your friend?"Tiana nodded dismissively and said to Sage, "Let's go.""I can't believe some people are so proud of divorcing their husbands for their own benefit," mocked Wendy. "Some people are a menace to society. You made Wilson get drunk, but you just neglected him. If Lana hadn't brought him home and taken care of him, who knows what could have happened to him!" Tiana stopped in her tracks. Sage couldn't stop herself from saying, "Mrs. Tate, please get your facts right before you speak. That night was a gathering among Tiana and her department. Your son insist

Wendy knew that Wilson would blame her for this, so she lunged forward to snatch Tiana's phone! However, Tiana was a head taller than her. Tiana held her phone in the air so that Wendy couldn't reach it."What are you doing? You have no business in our family matters!" shouted Wendy."I'm too busy to care about your family matters, but I'm just lending you a hand!" retorted Tiana. She unlocked her phone by scanning her fingerprint and scrolled to Wilson's number. Then, Wendy threw herself at Tiana.Tiana stepped aside instinctively, and Wendy let out a yelp. Wendy lost her balance and fell onto the escalator that was going down. She landed with a thud and rolled down the escalator. "Aunt Wendy!" Lana yelled and ran toward her. The commotion had attracted a lot of onlookers. Tiana only got her senses back when she heard shouts from downstairs and some asking for an ambulance. The nurse in her jumped into action. Tiana tossed Sage her phone and darted down the escalator to che

Wendy's words immediately drew reactions from those around her. Their expressions turned curious and intrigued. They looked over at Tiana and Calvin."What affair are you talking about?" Sage quickly interjected. "Tiana's already divorced your son. Even if she's in a new relationship now, what does that have to do with you?"You just claimed Dr. Gates is deeply in love with your son and wants him to take responsibility, but now when it comes to Tiana, you call it an affair. Stop being so hypocritical!"The onlookers turned back to Wendy. It was as if they were expecting her to argue some more."Who's being hypocritical?" Wendy snapped, fuming. "Tiana was already involved with this guy before she divorced Wilson. I've always known this man had bad intentions towards her!"Only Wilson would believe Tiana's lies. The truth is she's a—"Before Wendy could finish her sentence, she caught a chilling look from Calvin. Despite Calvin's non-threatening appearance, Wendy was intimidated by

Tiana shook her head. "I know his mom. If I don't go, she'll use this as an excuse to cause trouble at my hospital every day. To keep things peaceful, I need to visit her.""She caused the trouble herself and still has the nerve to bother you. She's used to bullying you and thinks she can still push you around!" Sage said angrily. "I'll go with you. I'm not afraid of her. I'll back you up!""No need," Tiana replied. "I don't want her saying nasty things to you. Don't worry. I'm not afraid of her. I'll explain everything in front of Wilson. If she still wants to make a fuss, I won't tolerate it.""Sage, you go home. I'll go with Tiana," Calvin said. "Since this happened at the mall, it's my responsibility to visit Mrs. Tate and see what her intentions are. Plus, it gives me a chance to gauge the situation."With Calvin accompanying her, Tiana wouldn't be at a disadvantage. It would also show Wilson that Tiana had support and wasn't dependent on him. It was like killing two birds wit
A Farewell After Being Reborn Chapter 703
Tiana remained silent as her gaze was fixed on Calvin.Calvin didn't wait for her to prompt him. He continued, "I have to admit, I haven't always had pure intentions toward you."Tiana, I understand you've just come out of a divorce and might not be ready for a new relationship. I've been keeping my feelings to myself because I was afraid of scaring you off.""But now, I don't want to hide my feelings anymore." Calvin held Tiana's gaze steadily. "Tiana, I like you."Even though Tiana had sensed this was coming, hearing Calvin express his emotions still caught her off guard. Considering Calvin's status, many socialites and women would eagerly pursue him. But Calvin confessed to liking her instead. He even acknowledged his intentions hadn't always been pure."You don't need to reject me by saying I deserve someone better or that there are women more suitable for me," he added."I've met plenty of women, had my share of encounters, and maintained numerous female friendships. I've
A Farewell After Being Reborn Chapter 704
But now, Calvin was sitting beside her, openly expressing his feelings.Calvin had taken all her concerns into account and addressed them. He even endeavored to become the successful man he believed she admired.What woman wouldn't have been moved by such deep affection?Tiana's voice was unexpectedly husky. "Calvin, I don't deserve your affection. I'm afraid you'll be disappointed."Calvin chuckled softly. "Don't talk nonsense. Choosing to like you is my decision. You don't need to fear anything, and there's no question of worthiness."Tiana, you're exceptional and wonderful. You'll always be deserving of anyone's affection. Don't doubt yourself because of one failed marriage."Warmth filled Tiana's heart once more. She had never heard such touching words before. Whether Calvin spoke from the heart or his understanding of women, Tiana was deeply thankful to him."Calvin, thank you. But as you said, I've just come out of a failed marriage, and I'm not ready to start a new relati

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
