All Chapters of A Farewell After Being Reborn: Chapter 161 - Chapter 170

Sage was confused by the fuss Tiana kicked up. She asked, "What do you mean?" She thought her drunk incident had blown over."Someone shared a video of you drumming at the bar last night. Everyone's talking about you! They say you're pretty and sassy!" Tiana, eager for Sage to see the news, urged, "Go watch it on your tablet! Now!"Speechless, Sage turned on the tablet and quickly found the video of her drum performance going viral online.She tapped on the video, which was edited to show only the climax of her performance. The clip lasted for around one minute.In the clip, she spread her arms and drummed as she immersed herself in the music. From this perspective, she did appear lovely and cool. In the comments, netizens showered her with compliments."She's so cool!""Dazzling!""I'm in love!"Sage was glad that people liked her and her performance. Still, she knew not to take her fame too seriously because online love was always short-lived. Instead, she regarded her accide

"Wow! Mrs. Holcomb is stunning! That's strange… I can't believe I hadn't noticed how beautiful she was before," Calvin mumbled. "I mean… it's not that she wasn't attractive before. It's just that she didn't have this kind of confidence and personality."Ian remained silent. In the video, Sage had on a bright smile and looked like she was enjoying herself. It was a side of her he had never seen before. The way she twirled her drumsticks was especially captivating. It was as if she had shed all of her inhibitions. Her soul seemed to radiate an unbridled sense of freedom. "Holy shit, Ian, check out these comments!"Calvin excitedly read out one of them. "The person who filmed this must have a crush on her. Most people would focus on the surroundings, the technique, and the drummer's skill. But the person who filmed this only filmed the drummer's smile and the twinkle in her eyes. It's hard to believe otherwise."After he finished, he continued scrolling excitedly. "Look! There are

Calvin pointed out, "Ian, regardless of what she did afterward, the fact is that you left her there and took off with another woman."Ian didn't get what the big deal was. "Ivy's injury was severe. I didn't have time to attend to Sage. Plus, she wasn't injured anyway. Why couldn't she go home on her own?"Calvin sighed inwardly. How could Ian ever win his wife back with this kind of mindset? He was hopeless."Mrs. Holcomb is a woman, Ian, and an accident happened at the banquet. I'm sure she must've been scared, even if she wasn't physically hurt. How could you leave her behind? "Did you even think about how she felt? There were so many of your employees and business partners there too. Didn't you think they would have laughed at her?" Ian's forehead creased when he heard that. He instantly thought of the photo of Sage standing on the dance floor attached to that viral post. Her face was crestfallen, and her large eyes were dull as she stood alone in the crowd. The post also c

Henry hastily reached out and ended the call when he heard the dial tone. "What's the meaning of this, Ms. Joyner?" He expected Sage to be ashamed of herself after being caught red-handed. Why did she call Ian herself?"Isn't it obvious? I wanted to give him a little scare just to see where I stand with him," she lied through her teeth. He fell silent when he heard that. He had looked into it even though Ivy hadn't told him anything and refused to allow him to probe further. He was aware that Ian didn't care about Sage, so he assumed she was using him to get back at him and hurt Layla at the same time. After all, he had the means to do so.Hence, he didn't mind helping Sage test Ian."So, you're not attempting to ruin my relationship with Layla… you're just using me?" he asked.Sage chuckled. "Sure, whatever floats your boat. However, you're right about one thing—I don't want you to be with Layla because I don't think you're good enough for her."His expression changed slightl

"Hold on, I thought you weren't joining us until next month. Why are you so eager to talk about projects now? Is there something you need from me?" Shane asked with a sly smile.Sage didn't beat around the bush. "Yes. I do need your help with something.""I'm listening."Sage laid out her plans openly.Once she was done, she was surprised that Shane didn't object outright. "Why are you setting them up? Do you have a grudge against them or something?""Can't I just dislike them?" she fired back.He stared at Sage for a few seconds before grinning wickedly. "Of course, you can, and this is right up my alley. But you know, you can come straight to me for this favor. There's no need to use the project as an excuse."Hearing his words, she rose to her feet. "I appreciate your generosity, Mr. Morrison. I'll get started on the proposal then.""Hold on. I have one request," Shane responded.Sage had a bad feeling about his request. "What is it?"His forehead creased. "Why are you giv
