A Farewell After Being Reborn Chapter 77
Shane lazily swiveled in his office chair as he said, "Why don't we let her introduce herself to you?"Sage had never encountered such a crazy thing in her life. Did she have to kick away Shane's admirer as a married woman herself?Sage met the woman's suspicious gaze and asked, "Would you believe me if I told you that I have nothing to do with Mr. Morrison and that I'm not here of my own volition?"The woman clearly didn't buy it. She even sneered, "Do you think I'm an idiot? You must be here to pester Shanie. "Women like you think you can seduce him all because you're pretty. You've even come all the way here to his office. Didn't you hear that he has a fiancée already?"Sage didn't expect that the person Shane wanted her to kick out of his office would be his own fiancée!"I'm so sorry, I—" Sage was about to explain herself when Shane shot her a warning look. Sage had no choice but to change her rhetoric. "I didn't want to interfere with your relationship either, but Shane in

"I'm going to get you back no matter what!" Giselle cried before running out of the office, her eyes red.As Sage watched her leave, she said, "How rude of you to do this to your own fiancée, Mr. Morrison.""She's not my fiancée!" Shane hated that term. Then, he said coldly to Sage, "How polite of you to create this persona for me that's head over heels for you. You're really bold!"Sage didn't feel guilty about it at all. "I only did this for your own good. She would've been used to dealing with women who are infatuated with you if I pretended to behave that way. "Only by knowing that you have feelings for another would she have given up on you.""Does that mean I have to thank you?""Not necessarily. You can just be a man of your word."Shane was about to continue speaking when a bodyguard said from outside, "Mr. Morrison, the receptionist just reported that some police officers have entered the building. They suspect someone's being unlawfully detained here."Shane came to

After calling a tow truck to tow her car back, Sage took a taxi back to Solaris Estate.The moment she entered, Wanda hurried over. "Mrs. Holcomb, your aunt is here. She's making a stew right now. She insisted on cooking for you and even kicked me out of the kitchen."Sage's brows furrowed. What was Susan doing here for no reason?"Sage is back!" Susan came out of the kitchen after hearing the commotion outside. "I just made some herbal stew. It smells delicious. You can eat it in a bit. "By the way, Ian called me earlier. He's on his way back from work and should reach home soon."Sage got straight to the point. "What are you doing here, Aunt Susan?"Susan said, "Oh, silly girl. I've treated you as my own since you were a child. I'm visiting my daughter's home because I want to see her, of course. "Didn't you say Ian rarely comes home for dinner nowadays? I thought I'd come over to personally cook for you and have Ian join us, too. That's a win-win situation!"What did Susan

Ian pursed his lips, not questioning Sage's attitude. He said calmly, "You requested this before. What's wrong with me agreeing to it now?"Sage couldn't help but scoff. "You said so yourself. I requested this before, which means it was in the past. You didn't agree to it before. And now I don't need it anymore. The only thing you need to do now is to sign the divorce agreement!""If you really didn't want to pair my clothes anymore, why did you let Aunt Susan bring my things into the bedroom, Sage? You even told her I don't come home often for dinner."Sage immediately felt awkward after hearing Ian's words.Susan actually told Ian about that!"I didn't ask her to come over. What she did has nothing to do with me…" Sage tried to explain.Before she could finish talking, Susan called out from downstairs, "Sage, Ian, hurry up and come downstairs. Dinner will be ready soon!"Sage composed herself and said to Ian, "We can talk about this later. No matter what Aunt Susan requests of

"Our company doesn't lack connections and resources. Why would we give away our money freely to others?" Susan then said to Ian, "I'll just be honest with you, Ian. I came here tonight to make dinner for you because there's something I need your help with."Your uncle wants to partner up with Pacific Group, but they don't believe in him. So, I was thinking that maybe you could help meet up with them and get us connected?""Ian's really busy nowadays and has no time to help with the Joyner family's issues, so please don't burden him further, Aunt Susan!" Sage said coldly."What are you saying, Sage? Ian is our family's son-in-law. How would it be a burden for him to help his in-laws? What do you say, Ian?" Susan then asked Ian.Ian glanced at Sage, who had a cold expression on her face. He then said lightly, "Give me the other party's information, Aunt Susan. I'll have someone check on it later before giving you a reply.""Oh, thank you so much, Ian! I knew you would help us out!
A Farewell After Being Reborn Chapter 82
Ian could tell what Sage was thinking. "First off, we're still legally husband and wife, which means it's still lawful for us to live together. "Secondly, your reaction makes me think that you don't want me staying here with you because you're worried you might realize you still love me."Sage forgot to retort for a moment. "Are you saying I can only prove that I don't love you anymore by letting you stay in the master bedroom?"Ian said neutrally, "Do it for Grandma's sake or think of it as my refusal to give up. Let's try to live together as a married couple before Grandma's birthday. "If you're still adamant about your stance by then, I'll believe you, and we can divorce peacefully."Sage stared at him suspiciously. "Won't our elders need to agree to it?""They'll definitely be notified of the divorce. As for how they'll react… Well, it depends on how well you can handle stress," Ian said.Sage understood his meaning. Ian was saying that their elders would still be informed

Sage replied, "Normal married couples get into fights and stop talking to one another, too. Now we're in the aftermath of a fight, and I don't want to see you."Ian asked, "What was our fight about?""Did you forget? Who was it that behaved rudely outside the sports complex two days ago and embarrassed my friend?"Ian snorted. "Why did I need to act courteously in front of someone who was eyeing up my wife?""What is wrong with you?" Sage didn't like hearing Ian insulting Michael. "Why would a bright young man set his eyes on a married woman like me?"Ian stared coldly at Sage. "You're still defending him? Who do you think knows men better, you or me?"Sage looked at his ugly expression and suddenly understood something. "Were you jealous because you thought another man was eyeing your wife?"No wonder Ian would suggest they live together like a normal married couple. His possessiveness was triggered!Ian had gotten fed up with Sage's constant admiration of him, but now that he

Ian raised his gaze when he felt Sage's gaze on him.When Ian saw her gaze was fixed on him, his eyes shone with delight.Sage took a deep breath and calmed herself down.No matter how handsome he was, she still found him repugnant!Sage coldly asked as she walked downstairs, "You're the one who brought me to bed last night, right?"As soon as she finished speaking, the sound of cutlery dropping could be heard from the kitchen.Sage turned around and saw Terry's shocked expression.Terry quickly recovered from the shock. He picked up the fork from the floor and pretended nothing had happened as he retreated into the kitchen."Mrs. Holcomb, what—"Terry even held back Wanda, who was about to come out from the kitchen.Wanda was left puzzled by his actions, asking, "What are you doing? I was just about to ask Mrs. Holcomb what she wanted for breakfast!"Terry dragged Wanda into the kitchen, saying, "Wanda, please take a look at this fork and see if it's too slippery from the o

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
