Since she was already being carried, Sage decided not to be overly dramatic and stopped struggling. She really shouldn't be putting weight on her foot, anyway.

Downstairs, Max had already opened the car door, waiting for them.

After getting into the car, Ian lifted Sage's leg naturally and placed it on his lap. "The doctor said elevating it would help with recovery."

As a result of that, Sage was sitting almost directly facing Ian. When she looked up, she could see his flawless profile.

Sage shifted her gaze to the outside of the car.

The car had already left the hospital and was now stopped at a red light. On the sidewalk, under the trees lining the road, a man was looking around.

Upon getting a clear look at the other person's face, Sage suddenly tensed up.

Ian noticed the change in Sage. Seeing the faint fear in her expression, he turned his head to follow her gaze.

A middle-aged man wearing a loose coat glanced around with his beady eyes. There was a creepy and sleazy smile

    Ian was 22 years old back then. He rescued Sage just in time, who was deeply trapped in fear and anxiety.Sage idolized him like a hero and knight back then and fell hopelessly in love with him."Sage?" A deep and cold male voice pulled Sage out of her memories.It was Ian, who was speaking with a calming tone, "Don't be afraid, it's all over now. This man was sent to the police station years ago and was locked up until last year."I didn't expect him to remain incorrigible. This time, I won't let him get out so easily!"Seeing the familiar handsome face that closely matched her memories, Sage's heart suddenly fluttered uncontrollably.Ian surprisingly still remembered the events from that year and could clearly recall the sleazy man's appearance."Ian, did you happen to find a crystal hair clip that day?" Sage's voice trembled slightly. Her beautiful, watery eyes were fixed intently on Ian.She remembered that when she attended the party back then, she wore a crescent-shaped c

    "Sage, that Ian guy that you have a crush on came to the school looking for you! I deliberately tested him, saying I could help pass a message along, but he wasn't willing. It's obvious you've got him wrapped around your finger!"Even though you went through a lot with that whole self-pity act at the party, getting that guy to come to your rescue made it all worthwhile!""Ian is genuinely handsome and has an outstanding demeanor. Many girls were secretly peeking at him when he was here just now."It's no wonder you put in so much effort. For such a high-quality guy, you need to use a few tricks to win him over quickly!"Ian left the library before he could finish listening.In the present, Ian said, "I was extremely angry at the time, feeling mocked and deceived. When I got back, I threw the hair clip into my desk and never thought about it again."The lights inside the car had dimmed, making the contours of Ian's face slightly blurred, but his frustration was still palpable.Sa

    A car drove by on the road across the street. Its headlights briefly illuminated Ian's handsome face, revealing the complexity in his eyes. As the car passed, Sage also looked away."Ian, I can let go of the past and not hold a grudge, but the damage that has been done cannot be erased. I won't start over with you. I will have my own life."The sidewalk outside had mostly returned to its peaceful state.Sage continued in a neutral tone, "Ms. Sutton has informed me about your recent situation. I think marrying her would be a good choice for you."You haven't changed your view of me for years, which shows I'm not that important to you. We're getting divorced anyway, so if you want love, you might as well focus on Ms. Sutton."She and her dad both have a very good impression of you. If you're willing, you could have a happy marriage and a stronger business empire.Sage's words were like nettle leaves—appearing soft and gentle, but when touched, the pain they could cause you was unbe

    Ian didn't insist. He got up, went to the fridge, grabbed a bottle of cold water, and drank it all in one go. Afterward, he thoughtfully served Sage a glass of warm water.Tiana arrived half an hour later.Upon entering the room, two people in the living room came into Tiana's view.Sage was reclining on a long couch with her legs propped up high, reading some kind of document.On the other hand, Ian was sitting on a single-seater couch. He was supporting his forehead with one hand and holding his phone in the other, as if listening to someone's work report.The odd atmosphere in the room gave Tiana a feeling that the two of them were discordant and in sync at the same time.Hearing her enter the room, Ian ended the call and politely greeted her, "Ms. Ford.""What are you doing here?" Tiana asked, puzzled.Ian said, "Sage sprained her ankle, so I brought her up."Tiana glanced at Sage's foot, which had indeed been bandaged tightly, and walked up to her. "Why didn't you tell me

    Sage looked curious. "What is it?"Tiana said, "Take a guess!""Did Calvin propose to you?" Sage asked.That made Tiana choke on her saliva. "Come on, control your imagination. We've only just started dating!""Well, I can't think of any big news, then."Tiana didn't keep her guessing any longer. She told Sage that Calvin had called her that morning, saying that Ivy had developed a fever recently.After some tests, it was discovered that she had contracted a sexually transmitted disease."When Sandra found out, she was so angry that she insulted Ivy but was adamant that Ivy should not get an abortion," Tiana said. "Even Ronald couldn't do anything about it when he went over."Sage was somewhat surprised, but at the same time wasn't. Those men from Toledon didn't seem like good people, so it wasn't surprising that they might have some health issues."Will the baby be healthy under these circumstances?" Sage asked.Tiana told her that certain sexually transmitted diseases may n

    "You've already rejected my feelings, so don't reject this contract too. At least let me experience the joy of success just this once," Shane added.Sage was quiet for a moment before suggesting as a compromise, "Then, I'll consider you a partner.""I'm not asking you to buy shares. It belongs to you." Shane looked as if there was no room for discussion.Seeing Shane's persistence, Sage felt a bit moved.Trying to lighten the mood, she said, "Shane, you better not regret not investing. When I start making money, all you can do is watch."Shane flashed a devilish smile she hadn't seen in a long time. "Wanting to watch the woman I like succeed in her career proves I have good taste."There was a hint of ambiguity in those words, but Sage still replied in a relaxed tone, "I hope I won't disappoint Mr. Morrison's expectations."Shane looked at Sage's foot, wanting to get closer to examine it but restrained himself. He asked, "Does it still hurt? Have you applied any medication?"Sa

    Seeing Shane's hesitation, Sage said, "If what you need to handle isn't very urgent, why don't you stay and have a meal before leaving?"Shane had some matters to attend to, but he had not seen Sage for several days and was reluctant to leave.Just as he was about to nod, Sage spoke up again, "Didn't you brag at the hospital last time that your cooking is really good? How about showing us what you've got?"The taunting strengthened Shane's resolve to stay. Rolling up his sleeves, he decided to prove right then and there that he wasn't just talking big.But Shane was a guest, so Wanda didn't make him do all the cooking. Apart from asking him to make his specialty dish, she prepared the rest of the food herself.After being busy in the kitchen for quite some time, Shane served them a dish of pan-seared lemon butter sole.Giselle tactfully went to the kitchen to help as Shane placed the food in front of Sage.The flounder was pan-fried to a golden brown color and drizzled with lemo

    After being rejected by Sage, Ian walked toward his car.Just before getting into the car, he glanced at the two carefully packaged cups of latte in his hands and got momentarily distracted.At this moment, a sweet voice rang out. "Mr. Holcomb?"Ian turned around to find Abby, who was holding a kitten."It's really you!" Abby exclaimed, somewhat surprised. "What are you doing here? Didn't you say you had something important to deal with and declined the dinner with my dad?"Ian briefly replied, "I just have something personal to attend to."Abby looked at the latte in his hand and said, "Mr. Holcomb, do you also like drinking latte? This is Haldon City's famous fruit latte. Usually, you have to wait in line for a long time to get it!"Ian didn't respond to her. "Ms. Sutton, if there's nothing else, I'll take my leave now.""Mr. Holcomb, since we've already run into each other. let's have a chat!" Abby blinked playfully. "I know you and Leo have been arguing because of our arran

    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
