All Chapters of A Farewell After Being Reborn: Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

"Since you're in such a hurry to die, why don't you just stab yourself and end it? Why go to the trouble of jumping off a building and causing a scene?" A man's voice rang out. It was filled with contempt."I wanted to stab—" Suddenly, Sage Joyner found that something was wrong with what Ian Holcomb had said. When had she jumped off a building?"You're finally awake, Mrs. Holcomb." The housekeeper, Wanda May, came over with a glass of water and some pills. "Does your head hurt? The doctor said you have minor symptoms of a concussion and prescribed some medication for you. Do you want to take it now?"Sage didn't answer. She found that she was lying on a bed in a spacious bedroom. From the furnishings, it seemed to be the master bedroom at the Holcomb residence.She hadn't seen the inside of this place since being sent to a mental institution two years ago. Could Ian have suddenly brought her home?No, something was wrong.Sage was certain she'd stabbed herself in the heart. Even

Sage's grandfather was the one person in this world who loved her the most. But in her previous life, she hadn't even had the chance to see him one last time when he'd passed away.This time, she swore to stay by his side until the end of his days and treat him well. She didn't want to disappoint him anymore.Because of her injuries, Sage didn't dare to visit her grandfather for the time being. She could only suppress her agitation and urgency. She told him she would drop by in a few days.After hanging up, Sage sat on the balcony and thought about the events of her previous life. When she'd been 18, she'd fallen in love with Ian because he'd rescued her like he was her knight in shining armor. From then on, she'd tried everything she could to win his heart, but to no avail.When she'd graduated from college, Ian's grandmother, Linda Johnson, had learned of her feelings for Ian. Linda had pushed for Sage and Ian to marry. From then on, she'd become his wife.Though Ian despised he

"Get me a pen!" Ian barked."Mr. Holcomb, Mr. Jones and the others are still waiting for you to sign the contract. It's almost time." Just then, Terry walked over to remind Ian in a low voice.This was regarding an important business deal Holcomb Corporation had been negotiating for a while. Sage's sudden appearance was causing them to almost be late.Ian immediately forgot about Sage. He and Terry hurried out of the building."Ian!" Sage ran after him."Drag her away!" On Ian's orders, a few security guards surrounded Sage.She knew he was a workaholic; it seemed like there wouldn't be time for them to get the divorce over with today. Sage had no choice but to shout, "I'll see you at City Hall at 9:00 am tomorrow!"Ian got into the waiting car with a poker face, then sped off without a word.Did this mean he would be there or not? Sage bet he would. He couldn't wait to be free of her, after all. She relaxed.When Sage returned to the villa, she logged in to her email account,

Sage found this laughable. When had Ian ever been nice to her? He still didn't believe she was serious and thought she wanted to use the divorce to smear his reputation. It wasn't as if getting divorced after a year of marriage was something to be proud of. Why would she go around announcing it to the world?"I swear I won't mention a word about this. If you don't trust me, you can add it to the divorce agreement as an additional clause," Sage said with a mocking smile.For some reason, her smile irked Ian. "Stop dragging things out. Sign the agreement!"He made it sound like she was the one delaying things on purpose. Sage couldn't be bothered to argue with him. She signed the agreement without hesitation. "Here, your turn."She threw the pen and agreement at Ian, who sat at the other end of the table. Since he'd already had someone print the agreement, why hadn't he signed it beforehand? He was wasting her time!Ian could sense Sage rolling her eyes at him. He suppressed his rag

Ian's expression softened when he saw who the caller was. He answered it."Ian, it's almost time for the meeting at Bolton Investment. How long will it take to get here?" The car was so silent that Sage heard every word that Ivy said over the phone despite her voice being soft and gentle.Ian had recently acquired Bolton Investment. Ivy had been appointed as its director.In Sage's previous life, Ivy had contributed much to Bolton Investment and had produced excellent results. It had won her the nickname of "Queen of the Workplace". At the time, Sage had been indignant. She'd told Ian that she wanted to get a job at Holcomb Corporation to prove her capabilities.But all she'd received was Ian's mockery. "You, work at Holcomb Corporation? Do you even know how to survive in the workplace? Ivy put in so much time and effort to gain the board of directors' approval. Do you think you can do the same with just a few words?"Ivy may not come from as good a background as you, but she's
