Thomas was reluctant to bid goodbye to Donald and Sage after learning that were leaving Colville in the afternoon. After a short chat, Sage and Zachary left the room to offer some privacy to the two old friends.Zachary said apologetically, "I was too busy to bring you and Donald around Colville over the past few days."Sage replied with a smile, "It's alright. We'll visit again and have more fun when Thomas gets better."Zachary nodded. "Of course." Despite that, both of them were acutely aware that Thomas would never recover."Life is unpredictable. I regret going abroad instead of spending two more years with Grandpa at home," he lamented.In Sage's past life, she did not accompany Donald to Colville. Hence, she was in the dark about Thomas' health condition. She comforted Zachary, "Don't be too hard on yourself. You couldn't foresee Thomas falling sick.""Sage, you've grown up. You are more sensible and mature now. Look, you're even consoling me," he teased.She deliberate

Besides, Sage thought it would be awkward if she refused to meet Leo when he showed up at her home. She sighed, not expecting to meet her father-in-law before the divorce."If you're tired, it's fine. I'll just let him know you're taking a nap," Ian offered calmly.She secretly lamented and reluctantly said, "I'll change my clothes and join you shortly."Ian did not object. He went downstairs alone to the living room, where Leo was waiting. Leo looked like he was in his fifties. Clad in casual wear, he seemed more muscular and bulky than his son. The serious look on his face underlined his authority and hinted at an unfriendly demeanor.Upon spotting Sage, Ian approached her. "You're here."Leo fixed his eyes on Sage as well. She flashed a polite smile and extended a hand to Leo. "Hi, Dad."Leo merely grunted before taking a sip of his tea, leaving Sage feeling embarrassed. Getting along with Donald and Linda was a breeze, but the serious Leo was a tough nut to crack.Ian took

Ian approached Linda without so much as taking a look at Sage."Aren't you busy at work? Why did you show up this early? Missing your wife?" Linda purposely directed the question at him.Sage answered before Ian had the chance to. "Grandma, stop making these embarrassing jokes. Ian and I are soon to be divorced." Linda's eyes remained fixed on Ian. She waited for an answer.Betraying no emotion, Ian replied, "I'm done with work. I came over to see if there's anything I could help with."Linda felt a surge of frustration at Ian's obliviousness. She had set the stage for him, yet he seemed unwilling to play along. She couldn't help but wonder if business was his only forte.Sage understood Linda's intentions and Ian's reluctance to play along. Even if Ian agreed with Linda, Sage wouldn't have believed him.Smiling, Sage changed the topic. "Grandma, let's look through the photos together."Linda barked at Ian, "Why are you standing there then? Come take a seat."Ian sat down by an

"Huh?" Sage was taken aback as Thomas seemed perfectly well when she and Donald bid him goodbye yesterday. His voice had been full of energy, but he was gone now."The doctor said it was terminal lucidity," croaked Donald.Sage understood that losing a lifelong friend must have been crushing for Donald. She was also disheartened to learn that Thomas, who had spoken highly of her just the day before, was suddenly no longer alive.After consoling Donald, she went up to Linda. "Grandma, I'm sorry but I can't stay the night. My grandfather is grieving the loss of his friend, and I need to be there for him."Linda replied, "Silly child. There's nothing to apologize for. It's only natural to want to comfort your grandfather in his time of need. I'll have Ian send you back." Then, Linda attempted to make one of the maids get Ian.Sage stopped her. "Grandma, that won't be necessary. Let Ian keep on with his work. I'll hail a cab.""Nonsense. It's only fitting for Ian to pay his respects

"Trying to bribe me now?" Benjamin snickered. "If it weren't for you, I would have signed the deal with Holcomb Corporation by now. I could have achieved financial independence after Mimosa's IPO. How can you ever make up to me?""I don't know what financial independence looks like to you, but as you know, I'm pretty rich and married to Ian Holcomb. Our marriage might be on the rocks, but he can afford to give me a few million. How does 100 million dollars sound to you?" Sage countered, attempting to sway Benjamin. She added, "Mr. Xenith, I know you abducted me here to vent your anger. But even if you beat me up, your circumstances won't improve. Take the money. Isn't that better?""Your negotiation skills surprise me. But do you take me for a fool?" Benjamin scoffed. "I'm aware you'll report me to the authorities once you're freed, and Ian Holcomb won't let it slide. What good is money then?" Benjamin sneered. "The moment I decided to abduct you, I vowed not to be swayed by money.
