After giving it a bit of thought, Sage declined, saying, “No, thank you. I have a lot of things to do every day and don't have the time to take care of it.”

Ian calmly said, "Let Wanda continue staying here. She can take care of it."

Sage shook her head. "Liking something doesn't mean you have to own it. Just looking at it is enough for me."

Upon hearing this, Ian chose not to persuade her any further.

Wanda brought out some tea and served a cup each to Sage and Ian.

While stroking the kitten, Sage said to Wanda, "Thank you for taking care of me these past few days. My foot is fine now. Please pack up your things and go back to Solaris Estate with Ian."

Wanda quickly responded, "Ms. Joyner, I don't want to go back. There are plenty of housekeepers at Solaris Estate who can manage without me.

"Didn't you say before that you wanted me to come take care of you? Can I stay here from now on?"

Sage had invited Wanda over before and found her to be very nice, meticulous in her work, g

    Sage felt that this was an opportunity.After some analysis and screening, she identified the name and address of the other party's studio.Sage and Giselle went over and found that the studio was only a few hundred square feet.Including the founder and designers, there were only three or four people there, busy typing code on their computers.Sage reaching out to them was a pleasant surprise, but they remained somewhat skeptical. They exchanged contact information and agreed to discuss the next steps at a later date.Meanwhile, Mimosa Cellar had set a date for its initial public offering, and current sales were quite stable. Once the company went public, Priscilla's net worth was expected to rise significantly.Because of this, many people wanted to curry favor with Priscilla. When they found out she held shares in Breakthrough Investment, they introduced her to a pay-for-knowledge program.Pay-for-knowledge programs were quite mature at present, with many companies interested

    Before Dale could speak, the middle-aged man praised aloud, "Especially those eyebrows and eyes, it's like they were carved from the same mold!"Sage looked at Dale's sharp features and striking eyes.Despite being middle-aged, he showed no signs of aging. His face still carried a sense of vitality, clearly indicating that he must have been very handsome in his youth.Although Sage's own looks weren't bad, thinking they were father and daughter was just too far-fetched.Just as Sage was feeling awkward and about to explain, she saw Abby returning.Perhaps hearing the middle-aged man's words, Abby's smile seemed to falter slightly."Mr. Hall, you're mistaken. That is my daughter," Dale said as he looked at Abby and waved at her.Abby quickened her pace and walked over, wearing a sweet smile on her face as usual. "Dad!"Dale nodded gently and explained, "This is Mr. Hall from Silver Enterprise, the one I mentioned to you before. He was a bit late."Abby greeted warmly, "Hello, M

    Sage smiled faintly, not wanting to discuss these matters with Abby. Instead, she expressed her gratitude to Abby for bringing Dale to the ceremony.Because Dale attended the event, many people viewed Breakthrough Investment's capabilities as quite strong. The opening ceremony drew a fair amount of attention because of that.As long as Breakthrough could secure a few more projects, they would eventually make a name for themselves.Abby said sweetly, "We're friends, so of course I'm going to help whenever I can! My dad happened to be free that day, so I invited him along!"As they were talking, Abby's phone rang.After she answered the call, the other person said something that made Abby very happy."That's great. Thank you, doctor. Let it rest for a few more days, and I'll come to pick it up."After hanging up the phone, Abby took the initiative to tell Sage that Thorn was injured.A few days ago, Thorn fell off the roof. It broke its front leg and also lost a tooth. The vet ha

    Sage found it strange. Albert looked quite healthy, and golf wasn't a high-intensity sport. How did he get injured?After making some inquiries, Sage found out that the golf cart that Albert was riding in had a problem.While it was moving, it suddenly veered off into an artificial lake used for water storage and viewing.Albert was hit in the head by the impact, and it seemed his leg was also seriously injured.As an established and reputable golf course, such an accident shouldn't have occurred. Indeed, many people at the scene voiced their dissatisfaction and raised concerns about the course's safety.Regarding Albert's injury, Sage couldn't shake the feeling that something was off, though she couldn't put her finger on it.The staff were maintaining order at the site.Meanwhile, seeing that it was getting late, Sage invited Gordon to have dinner together. Given the warm invitation, Gordon did not decline.A few people got onto a golf cart and left the lawn, returning to the

    Ian didn't respond to Abby's words but instead turned to Sage and said, "Shall I take you home?""No need," Sage declined. "I have a dinner appointment with a client. I'll go in and change my clothes first."Even though Ian wanted to chat more with Sage, he noticed that she kept checking the time, so he wisely decided not to hold her up any longer."Alright, be careful," Ian reminded.Sage wasn't quite used to such tenderness from Ian. She didn't respond to him, nodded at Abby, and then headed to the dressing room.In the lounge, Abby noticed that Ian's gaze was still fixed on Sage's departing figure.In a sweet voice, she said, "Mr. Holcomb, you're so devoted to Ms. Joyner. Sooner or later, she'll be moved by your feelings."Ian remained silent. Although Sage had been less resistant to him lately, she was still far from being moved."I told my dad that we needed to finalize the partnership between the two companies. But he just laughed and wondered why I'm in such a hurry to h

    Hearing this, Ian did not immediately respond but instead looked at Sage.Sage said in a calm voice, "Weren't you in the middle of an important meeting? You should hurry up and go."Ian wasn't surprised by Sage's response. He apologized to Gordon, saying, "Sorry, we'll have to do it another day."Gordon immediately laughed and said it was no problem. He even mentioned making plans for next time.After Ian left, Gordon shifted from his previously high-handed demeanor and became warm and attentive toward Sage.During the meal, he complimented Sage and even suggested they should collaborate.Naturally, Sage knew the reason behind Gordon's change in attitude."Thank you, Mr. White, for your trust," Sage said with confidence. "We will promptly prepare a feasible investment proposal and deliver it to your company."Once you've reviewed it, if you believe in our capability and strength to collaborate, it would indeed be a cause for celebration for both sides."But if you're only will

    "Calvin is doing great. He's getting more skilled and efficient with his tasks," Sage praised.Tiana thought about how Calvin said he wanted to become a successful man and give her a strong sense of security. It made her feel warm and happy inside.Sage obviously noticed how happy Tiana was and asked, "Isn't your aunt in the neighboring city? Why don't you go visit with Calvin and let him meet her?"Tiana was still a bit hesitant. "Let's spend more time together and see how it goes. There's no need to rush."Sage asked, "You're not still thinking about Wilson, are you?""No way!" said Tiana. "Since I decided to be with Calvin, there's no way I'd still think about anyone else."I just feel that Calvin is too perfect. I always feel like this is a dream, afraid that the bubble will burst one day."Hearing that, Sage couldn't help but hold onto Tiana's arm. "There you go again. You mustn't belittle yourself. He's great, but you're wonderful, too!""Yeah, you're right!"The two of

    Tiana looked at Wilson. "Do you need something?"Tiana's radiant face and calm demeanor left Wilson at a loss for words. He felt a wave of panic inside and instinctively wanted to call out to her.Tiana noticed what Wilson was thinking. She smiled gently and said, "Congratulations on your upcoming marriage. I wish you and Dr. Gates happiness."Wilson felt a lump in his throat and couldn't speak, but Lana smoothly took his arm and said, "Thank you for your blessings, Ms. Ford."Tiana didn't say anything further and left the jewelry store together with Sage.Getting into the car, Tiana told Sage, "Don't hold back, just say whatever you want to say. I'm fine."Sage couldn't help but complain, "What's going on with Wilson? Wasn't he supposed to resign and go abroad? Why is he suddenly getting married to Lana?"Tiana spoke calmly, "It was probably his parents' idea. Dr. Tate is the kind of person who dislikes hassle."Lana is someone who can comfortably take on Mrs. Tate's role with

    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
