All Chapters of A Farewell After Being Reborn: Chapter 271 - Chapter 280

She truly owed it to Ian last night. Otherwise, not only would she have been physically hurt, but those indecent videos would've been all over the internet by now. There was no way she could be sitting here, conversing peacefully with Linda."Sage, it's obvious that Ian cares about you now. Are you really not going to give him another chance?" Linda still wanted to fight for her grandson.Sage shook her head resolutely. "Grandma, what's done is done. Ian helped me last night, but that doesn't change the fact that we're getting a divorce. I'm going to the court with him tomorrow."Linda shook her head as she had expected that. "Alright. I won't try to persuade you anymore."The elderly woman squeezed Sage's hand and said, "Don't overdo it. You just went to the hospital last night. Sit down and rest.""It's alright, Grandma. I'm not tired." Sage wanted to spend more time with Linda as she wouldn't be able to take care of her as her granddaughter-in-law soon."Grandma, Uncle Owen ca

"No matter what I do, you are always the one in the right. Ian Holcomb, don't you think that is worse than suggesting divorce yourself?"Ian's dark gaze landed on Sage. "I told you I'd attempt to meet your demands in the future. Besides, you clearly have feelings for me. We're not at the point of no return.""I'll admit that the feelings I've developed for you over the years won't just disappear overnight, but those feelings aren't enough to keep me going," she said."I'm exhausted, Ian. I genuinely don't want to be a part of your life anymore. If you have even an ounce of guilt or feelings for me, please sign the divorce agreement as soon as possible."Ian gazed at her for a moment when he heard that. He then tossed the tube of ointment that was in his pocket at her before walking away."What were you and Ian talking about? Did you guys fight?" Layla walked over while Sage stood in a daze. "What brings you here?" Sage twisted open the ointment.Layla took a seat beside her and

Sage felt a little awkward. She wasn't afraid that others would find out about their divorce. However, it was Linda's birthday after all. It was a joyous occasion, and she didn't want to ruin it for everyone. Moreover, her uncle and aunt had always been against the idea, so she didn't want to cause any more problems. Moreover, she had just snapped at Leo a few hours ago, stating that she would get a divorce with Ian soon. However, her aunt unexpectedly started talking about having children in front of him. Sage figured she must've seemed hypocritical in Leo's eyes."Dad, didn't I tell you that Sage just blurted that out in the heat of the moment?" Ian said calmly before Sage could respond."As their elder, shouldn't you encourage them to reconcile when they disagree? How could you say something like that?" Linda added reproachfully."Grandma, I—""Don't mind him, Sage. He's always been this annoying," Linda cut Sage off.Leo didn't utter a single word after that. After all, it

Sage turned over and realized Ian had walked up to her at some point and was currently pointing out the flaws in the contract. His long arm almost touched her nose as he gestured at the computer screen. She couldn't help but catch a whiff of the cedarwood and alcohol on him."Don't look at me. Look at the contract." Ian turned her head with his hand. Sage rolled her eyes when she noticed his tone and actions were like those of a teacher teaching his apprentice. However, she didn't protest and turned her attention back to the contract.The problems he pointed out made her feel as if a light bulb had been switched on in her head. They were all difficult issues to spot, but he was able to point them out at a glance. No wonder he was able to manage Holcomb Corporation so well. Ian really was capable.Sage was able to identify and correct the problems in the contract under Ian's guidance. She then sent the revised contract to her uncle. Sage stretched after she was done. She was exha

Shane was a pain to deal with, and Sage didn't want to waste her breath on him. Hence, she cut to the chase and asked, "Fine. When are you free?"Shane responded, "How about tomorrow? I'll give you two days to deal with the contract and work.""You're not going to embarrass me in public or set me up for something, are you?" she couldn't help but ask she noticed Shane's mischievous smile.He grinned. "Anyhow, you've agreed to it, so you'll have to jump even if there's a trap ahead."In the afternoon, Sage swung by Collin's research institution to sign the contract. Then, she headed back to Farsight Investment to meet up with Shane."Alright, since we're all done, let's get celebrating!" He appeared to be in a good mood.Sage politely turned him down. "It's alright. We'll have plenty of opportunities to celebrate in the future.""But that's that, and this is this," he said. "I've already canceled all my plans for the day. You're coming with me, whether you like it or not.""Are y
