Chapter 201

Sage was at a loss for words. She couldn't help but wonder if he had injured his brain instead of his waist last night. Why else would he dwell on such a trivial matter? Sage couldn't be bothered to answer him, so she walked into the ward.Ian also realized he had overreacted. He wondered why he was so bothered by her words. In the end, he chalked it up to not getting enough rest last night.Tiana and Calvin appeared to have hit it off in the ward. Sage caught them in the process of exchanging contact information when she walked in."Welcome back!" Tiana dragged Sage into the restroom and locked the door behind them as soon as she spotted Sage."What's up? Why'd you drag me in here?" Sage asked.Tiana asked excitedly in hushed tones, "Calvin told me that you were the one who bit Ian's lips. Is that true?"Sage had almost forgotten about it until she brought it up. Ian's lips did look much better that day. She couldn't believe how perceptive Calvin was."To be honest, I had also

"He's just used to expressing his feelings. Give it a few days, and he'll back off."Sage was a little disappointed when she heard that. "If only he would persist for a little while longer…"Ian eyed Sage suspiciously.Tiana's husband might have felt a sense of urgency about his marriage and started paying more attention to Tiana if Calvin persisted for a little while longer. However, she couldn't tell Ian that. Hence, she said, "It's complicated."Ian was rendered speechless. The driver dropped Sage off at Solaris Estate."I'll help you apply the ointment on your shoulder tonight, so don't bother Wanda," Ian said as she got out of the car.Calvin had mentioned it last night as well. Still, she declined. "It's alright. Wanda can handle it."He added lowly, "My waist is also injured. I'll practice on you first."Sage quipped, "Maybe you should just keep your mouth shut. It might just speed up both our recoveries." Then, she walked away without sparing him another glance.Ian

"Don't worry," Giselle said, a pained expression on her delicate face. "I wouldn't dare to mess with her with you here.""That's what I thought." Shane scoffed. Then, his expression changed drastically as he turned to Sage. "Don't worry. I'll wait over there. Just call me if you need anything."Sage rolled her eyes at him and ignored him. The man walked away, glancing back every few steps. Giselle took a deep breath and said, "So we've met again, Ms. Joyner." Her eyes shone with determination as if she had come to terms with something.Sage couldn't bear to see the young lady's crestfallen face. Hence, she cut to the chase. "Shane was just spouting nonsense, Ms. Rosethorn. Please don't take it to heart. Also, I lied to you. He has no feelings for me at all. "He threatened me into coming here today. Feel free to court him if you like him. I will never be an obstacle in your relationship, so please don't see me as your rival."Giselle seemed unfazed when she heard that. She repl

Ian thought he had dialed the wrong number when he heard her coquettish, but urgent, voice. He looked at his phone and confirmed that it was Sage on the line. However, she had been distant and indifferent toward him recently. Her sudden change in attitude suggested she was in serious trouble and needed help."Where are you?" he asked calmly.Sage told him the location of the restaurant. Ian didn't ask who she was with or why she was there. Instead, he simply said, "I'll pick you up in a bit."Sage felt a wave of relief wash over her after hanging up the phone. Giselle and Shane were too difficult to deal with, and she didn't want to get involved in their love-hate relationship. Ian's call couldn't have come at a better time."I can't teach you anything, Ms. Rosethorn," Sage said solemnly. "I'm telling you the truth. Shane doesn't like me, and he never will. Honestly, you're young, beautiful, and wealthy. Why don't you move on and find someone who is better suited for you?"Since

Then, she spotted Ian's car approaching. Sage ran over to it, ignoring Shane, who was "in pain", and Giselle, who was in tears. She swung open the car door and slipped inside without hesitation. Ian was glancing at the entrance with a hardened expression. Sage figured he must've seen Shane standing in her way. However, she didn't feel the need to explain herself to him. After all, he was much closer to Ivy and never explained himself to her. So why should she bother?"Let's go," she said to the driver.The driver turned to look at Ian and waited for his instructions. Ian shifted his attention to the driver and nodded at him. He then asked, "Why did you meet up with Shane again?""Don't even start," she scoffed. "Why can't I meet with him? It isn't my problem that you and Shane don't get along."Ian was taken aback. "Sage, can't you tone down your attitude and have a normal conversation with me?""Oh, sorry honey, but I'm very petty. I can't have a civilized conversation with y

Sage nodded. "Don't worry. I won't bring up our divorce in front of Mr. Holcomb Senior. Plus, we can keep our divorce under wraps after we get the divorce certificate."Ian wasn't particularly pleased when he heard that. "Let's head to Holcomb Estate right now," he ordered.Her eyes widened. "What is the meaning of this, Ian Holcomb? I told you I'm not going!" "Since we're not divorced yet, you'll have to fulfill your duties as my wife," he responded. Ian couldn't suppress his anger. After all, she was willing to meet up with Shane, but she wasn't willing to accompany him to Holcomb Estate. Sage decided to tag along after she noticed his unyielding demeanor. Holcomb Estate was in a prime location. It was a three-story Gothic-style house adorned with gardens. Sage had never stepped foot inside the estate even though she was Ian's wife.Ian had moved out after college and opted to live alone in his own home. After getting married, Solaris Estate was their new abode. Moreover, sh

Ian was baffled by her abrupt change of demeanor. Even though he intended to mend their relationship, he found it hard to keep his cool when he looked at her tear-filled eyes and distant demeanor. "Sage Joyner, why are you being so fickle?"Sage looked up at him and retorted, "I'm pretty sure you're the fickle one. In the past, I begged you to bring me here, but you couldn't be bothered to. Yet, you now insist on bringing me here when I told you I wasn't interested anymore. Ian Holcomb, aren't you just doing this because I haven't been paying much attention to you lately?" "Do you seriously think that I'm doing this because I'm upset?" Ian countered."What else could it be?" she scoffed. "Would you notice me, care about what I think, or bring me here on your own if I were still revolving around you every day like I used to?"For a moment, he was stumped. In the past, Sage was too clingy. She would always want him to spend time with her, and she always wanted his eyes to be on her.

Sage assumed Wanda had encountered some difficulties, so she comforted her, "Do tell me if there's something I could help you with."The middle-aged woman immediately shook her head. "Oh, no. It's nothing.""Alright, then." Sage then took a sip of the soup Wanda had prepared. "Mrs. Holcomb, did you get into an argument with Mr. Holcomb?" Wanda asked.Sage took another sip of the soup and responded, "It's nothing serious—just a little disagreement."All she had done was let off some steam. Ian, on the other hand, had barely reacted."Mrs. Holcomb, I believe Mr. Holcomb is worried about you. He specifically asked me to make this soup for you. He said you'd drink it when you returned," Wanda continued.Sage lost her appetite in an instant. She wondered what Ian was playing at. After all, she had just called him out. So why was he going through all this trouble?Sage returned to her room after dinner. After she did so, she received a message from Shane."Ms. Joyner, you were way

Ian's expression darkened when he heard that. "Do you not want to apply the ointment because you want Grandma to notice something's wrong?"Sage was rendered speechless. Forget it. She shouldn't neglect her health. Besides, she could smell the ointment emanating from him. This meant that he had already applied it, so he was probably more experienced than Wanda in this regard.Sage settled back into the chair and pulled her loungewear back a tad. "Please help me apply the ointment like this."Even though he seemed uninterested, there was no telling whether he would suddenly get in the mood. Hence, sitting was the safer option.Ian didn't seem to mind. He walked up to her and warmed the ointment in his hands before applying it to her shoulders.Sage couldn't help but wince in pain as his warm palm touched her wound. However, Ian applied steady pressure and massaged her shoulder. It hurt, but the cooling sensation of the ointment and the warmth of his hands made her feel oddly satisf

Benjamin would only get questioned and a warning if he was detained for that. Hence, Terry did a background search on Benjamin and had him detained for questioning on the opening day because he was using improper means. Sage thought he would be locked up for a few years. Little did she know that he would be released so soon."Don't worry about it too much. He's the kind of person who bullies the weak and fears the strong. He won't act rashly now that he knows Mr. Holcomb has taught him a lesson for you," Priscilla reassured. "I'll go and warn him when he gets released. If he dares to hurt you again, I won't spare him."Sage smiled when she heard that. "Alright. We live in a civilized society. I'm sure he can't just do as he pleases."The girls continued talking about this issue for a while before Priscilla said, "Tiana's been back for a few days now. Why don't we meet up for lunch this afternoon?""Sounds good. Let me give her a call." Tiana's name popped up as soon as Sage pul
