Marcus smiled helplessly. He felt a headache as he asked, "Mr. Holcomb, did you and Shane plan this together to doubt me?"

Marcus had stated that he was the strictest with Giselle in the entire family and would never do anything impulsive or illegal to protect her.

"Mr. Holcomb, I'm just an ordinary businessman. I came to Haldon City merely to expand my business, but I can't stand you and Shane constantly questioning me every few days."

Marcus put down his wine glass and said, "Mr. Holcomb, if there's anything you want to know in the future or if you need my assistance with something, you can ask me directly.

"I assure you I will tell you everything I know. However, I hope there won't be a next time for any baseless accusations or groundless suspicions.

"Sorry, Mr. Holcomb. I have some other matters to attend to today, so I need to leave early."

Marcus calmly departed after he finished speaking.

Shortly after that, Ian received a message from Terry.

    Sage had purposefully mentioned slapping him, thinking that Shane would be speechless and then tell her that he wouldn't bring up Ian again.As a result, Shane listened and surprisingly brought his face close to hers. "Go ahead and hit me," he said.Sage was rendered speechless by his action."Do you think the left side of my face looks too good to hit?" Seeing that Sage didn't move, Shane immediately switched sides and said, "Then hit the right side instead."Sage pushed his head away, saying, "Forget it, you're too shameless. I'm afraid that hitting you will hurt my hand."Shane extended his hand and suggested, "How about I lend you mine so your hand won't hurt?"Sage helplessly thought that this was expected from Shane, someone who never played by the rules.In the end, she never slapped him. Sage decided to "temporarily keep" it, waiting to see what would happen next.After finishing their pasta, Shane drove Sage to the entrance of Bayview. He said he was sending her home,

    There was anger, jealousy, pain, and annoyance, all mixed in a surging wave that could come crashing down.Sage felt a faint sense of unease.When Ian showed this kind of expression, it meant that his emotions were on the verge of exploding.Ian saw her trying to kiss Shane earlier at the clubhouse. Just now, Ian also saw Shane's message saying "Missing you". Which meant that right now, Ian was in a really bad mood.Sage calmly took a small step back and said, "Ian, you've had too much to drink. How about I ask Terry to send a driver to pick you up?"Ian remained silent, his expression stern. His thin lips pressed into a straight line, and his deep eyes seemed to be holding back something.Based on Sage's understanding of Ian's demeanor, Ian would definitely lash out at her if she were to say or do anything provocative toward him.When she considered their strength and speed, she could never match Ian.Sage moved back a little, preparing to persuade gently, "Ian—"Just as she

    When he saw Sage's guarded expression, the emotions in Ian's eyes seemed to become as tumultuous as a stormy sea, constantly surging.He opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but ultimately chose to hold back all the words he wished to say.With a wary expression on Sage's face, Ian emotionlessly handed her a document.Only when Sage took it did she realize that Ian wasn't empty-handed. He had been holding this document all along. She was so focused on looking at Shane's message while she was getting off the elevator that she didn't notice Ian at all, let alone what he was holding in his hand.Although Sage was curious about what the information Ian provided was about, she did not ask.At this moment, the atmosphere around Ian still seemed very tense, so Sage remained on high alert.Perhaps he had noticed what she was thinking, but Ian gave a faint, subtle smile. Without saying anything, he reached out to open the fire escape door and left.Sage stood there motionless, ga

    Sage was somewhat convinced by Tiana's reasoning, but she still felt a bit worried and said, "If Shane goes against his family because of me and I'm still not sure if I want to be with him, I can't help but feel guilty.""Don't feel guilty. Even if Shane goes against his family, that's his choice. No one expects you to repay him for everything he's done."Tiana, sounding like a relationship expert, said, "Even though I personally support Shane, the final choice is still up to you.""If being with him makes you happy, then say yes. If you're hesitant, take more time to think. After all, love shouldn't be based on emotionally touching feelings or guilt."Sage nodded after hearing this. Then, she remembered to ask, "Have you and Calvin been having some issues lately? I haven't seen you making calls or video chatting in the past few days."Tiana replied, "We fought."Sage asked for the reason and found out that they had been arguing over what happened with Shane a few days ago.Calv

    Tiana, having just been scolded by Sage, didn't have any angry feelings left. When she saw Calvin's affectionate expression, she felt even more warmth."Will you do it again next time?" Tiana purposefully asked sternly.Calvin obediently shook his head with a bit of nervousness and said, "I won't do it again."Tiana couldn't help but laugh. "Alright, I forgive you."Tiana's radiant smile was as beautiful as blooming flowers, and Calvin was momentarily stunned by its beauty.When she saw Calvin staring directly at her, Tiana suddenly felt a bit uncomfortable. "What are you looking at?" she asked.Calvin blurted out, "I find you attractive."Everyone enjoyed being told they were good-looking and coming from Calvin, it made it even more delightful. Tiana could feel her cheeks warming up."So, are you saying that you find me attractive and that's why you like me?" Tiana asked.Calvin nodded and then shook his head. "That's part of the reason, but it's not the whole story. I really

    After some discussion, they decided to assign this task to Wilson's intern, Charlotte Todd, and asked her to inform Wilson about the news.Wilson was also on night duty tonight. He was in the office analyzing various medical records. Just as he was supposed to finish his shift and go home to rest, Charlotte walked in.Noticing the conflicted expression and hesitation on the other person's face, Wilson, who was holding a pen, asked, "Charlotte, do you need something?"Charlotte cleared her throat discreetly, determined not to let others down and to courageously complete the task.She opened a photo from the group chat and showed it to Wilson. Gathering her courage, she said, "Dr. Tate, I just heard from a nurse in the surgery department that their head nurse, Tiana, has just agreed to be someone's girlfriend."A loud snap sounded. It was unclear whether it was the shocking news or the sight of the photo that caused it, but the tip of the pen in Wilson's hand was unexpectedly broken

    Tiana had never expected Wilson to ask such a question, especially since she had made everything clear to him last time."Stop saying such inappropriate things," Tiana said bluntly. "Wilson, we haven't had any relationship for a long time."You don't want to let go, not just because of the little bit of affection you mentioned, but more because you're already used to having me around. Starting over with someone else would mean having to adapt again, which would be a lot of trouble for you."Wilson instinctively wanted to argue, but he had indeed become accustomed to having Tiana around and didn't want someone else to take her place.Moreover, Tiana didn't give him a chance to speak. She continued, "Since the divorce, you've done quite a few inappropriate things that have caused me a lot of trouble. Please be mindful of the impact in the future, because I don't want Calvin to be unhappy."Upon hearing these words, Wilson's previously expressionless face shifted slightly.He knew t

    In the end, Wilson promised, "I won't bother you anymore."When she saw the sadness and pain in Wilson's expression, Tiana couldn't help but feel a bit of bitterness in her heart. After living together and loving him for over two years, they ended up as strangers."Thank you, Dr. Tate."…The next day, Sage went to Maven Corporation. The follow-up procedures for the batch of custom incense ordered by Abby had been fully completed.Abby personally went to pick up the goods, paid the remaining balance in full, and wanted to invite Sage, Zachary, and the others for a meal to show her gratitude.Maven Corporation's business volume had increased significantly recently. Zachary was busy and couldn't get away, so Sage went to have a meal with Abby.During the meal, Abby apologized to Sage for what happened at the Suttons' party. She mentioned that all her staff were newly hired and that she didn't expect them to be so easily bribed.Although Sage already knew that the matter had nothi

    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
