Chapter 421

As Sage held the divorce certificate outside the court, she felt like she was in a dream. Ian had actually signed the divorce agreement. They were divorced now. She was free! "Here are the deed and keys for Palgrave Place." Ian handed her an envelope.Ian hadn't taken it with him the last time he visited the hospital, so she had a deliveryman send it back to him. Sage hadn't expected him to still insist on giving it to her."There's also a blank check inside," he said apathetically. "Both you and Grandpa insisted on not taking any of my assets, but we were married after all. Consider these as compensation for you."His face was expressionless, and his voice was devoid of any emotion. He had reverted to his usual cold and distant demeanor.Sage turned him down. "It's alright. You don't owe me anything."After all, she was the one who pushed for this marriage. Ian could've avoided all this trouble. Now, it was time to let everything go back to the way things were. Before the div

Sage headed toward the curb, where her grandfather's car was waiting."Have you finished the paperwork?" Donald asked."Yep!" Her heart was filled with joy as she held up the divorce certificate proudly.Donald shook his head helplessly. "You were all smiles when you got married, just as you are now getting divorced."Embarrassed, she buried her head in her grandfather's shoulders and said, "I'm sorry, Grandpa. I was selfish again."He gave her head a gentle tap. "There's nothing to be sorry about. I'd rather see you happy than trapped in an unhappy marriage.""Thanks, Grandpa." Sage felt warm inside, and she snuggled up to her grandfather affectionately."By the way, Grandpa, why were you at Solaris Estate?" she asked as she recalled.Donald explained that he had learned about the incident at Maven Corporation that morning. When he reached out to an acquaintance, he was asked about her and Ian's situation. That was when he realized that their affair had become quite the talk o

"What's on your mind, Sage? Why aren't you picking up your phone?" Donald asked.Sage hurriedly plastered a smile on her face. "Nothing much. Give me a minute, Grandpa. I'll step out and answer the call."Donald had no idea why she was avoiding him. But he was aware that his granddaughter was all grown up now, so he had to respect her decision.The ringing had already stopped by the time Sage got out of the car. Ivy had called again. Sage turned on the recording function before answering the phone. "Are you here to gloat about my divorce with Ian?" she asked coldly.Ivy appeared to have been caught off guard for a moment as it took her a couple of seconds to ask, "Divorce? Why would you and Ian divorce, Sage? When did this happen?""Quit the act. Weren't you just waiting for this moment after all that effort you put in?" Sage sneered. "Congratulations! You got what you wanted. Now you and Ian can be together for the rest of your lives. So, stop wasting your energy to get back at

"He's keeping things under control for the time being. He probably wants to handle it on his own. You can step in in a few days when the situation worsens and he can't handle it anymore," Shane said.This was great news! She could deal with Ivy once Henry was out of the picture."Dinner's on me once this is all over, Mr. Morrison!" Her mood, which had been sullied by Ivy, lifted again.Shane snorted. "As long as you don't make empty promises. By the way, Marcus hasn't been able to reach you for the past few days. He asked me to tell you that he had found Giselle's housekeeper. He would like to discuss the details with you in person."He continued, "When are you free? I'll go with you. I'd like to hear the whole story as well."Sage hadn't had the chance to fill him in on the details of her miscarriage. With her grandfather waiting in the car, it wasn't the right time to discuss such a sensitive matter.Sage responded, "I'll be free in a few days. My health comes first. I need to

Ian had established himself as the leader of the company in just a few years, and he carried himself with confidence. Even though he hadn't challenged Ian directly, it wasn't a good sign for him to reject his decisions. Leo panicked a little when he realized Ian was slipping from his grasp."Ronald told me you stopped doing business with his company to stand up for Sage. Is that true?" Leo asked with a hardened expression."Uncle Ron's getting old. He can't tell what's important anymore, so it's time for him to take it easy."Ian didn't want to waste his breath on his father anymore. "Dad, if you don't have anything else to do here, why don't you head home or go back abroad? I'll take care of the company, so you don't have to come back for such issues in the future.""How dare you!" Leo snapped again. After all, this was the CEO's office—the pinnacle of authority at Holcomb Corporation. It would be embarrassing for both of them if they quarreled here and someone overheard."Do

Ian switched to a different phone and texted Sage. "Why are you upset again, Sage? I thought you've always wanted this project. What's wrong with me giving it to you?"When there was still no response after a while, he tried to call Sage, but he couldn't get through. Ian felt a lump in his chest, causing a dull ache.…Meanwhile, Sage descended the stairs and noticed the doctor her grandfather had arranged for her was already there. Yesterday, at her grandfather's insistence, she went to the hospital for a full-body check-up. Donald only relaxed after the doctor confirmed that there was nothing wrong with her head and internal organs. Even though she only had external injuries, her grandfather insisted that she have the doctor apply ointment to her wounds every day to ensure that there would be no scars or problems left on her body. The doctor treated her wounds and applied hot compresses to the area around her waist and hips where she was injured. It took a few hours. In th

After wrapping up her call with Tiana, she placed an order for dozens of cartons of milk. Sage intended to give a few boxes to each of the housekeepers and drivers while also supporting Michael. With that settled, she and Shane started talking about CureX's project. He informed her that Bolton didn't participate in the second round of financing for CureX Pharmaceuticals. Collin also hadn't withdrawn the distribution rights despite what had happened recently at Farsight. On the contrary, he seemed like he wanted Farsight to be involved in the financing.Sage pondered for a moment before telling Shane about the message Ian had sent her earlier that morning. "Hold on… Ian basically handed the project to you?" he inquired, somewhat surprised. To be more specific, Ian had listened to Ivy and handed over the project to her. "Tsk, I never imagined Ian would be so generous. He was never one to back down in business." He added, "Well, if he's offering it to you, why don't you just ta

Ian didn't say a word, but his cold expression spoke volumes."You've already cut off all business dealings with my dad and taken over my projects. Isn't that enough? What more do you want?" Ivy choked out, "I don't have any good projects in Bolton, and I'm being looked down on by everyone at work because of the scandal online. "I know I shouldn't have provoked Sage, but I've paid the price already. Be honest, Ian. If I hadn't done what I did, could you have stomached Sage's child?"His gaze remained cold as he looked at Ivy's aggrieved expression. "How can you be so sure that the baby isn't mine?""The baby is yours?" Her eyes widened in disbelief. "But… didn't Sage say the baby was Shane's?""It doesn't matter whose child it is. It has nothing to do with you," he said apathetically. "Stop harboring any hopes or feelings you might have for me. "Even if I've divorced Sage, I won't marry another woman, let alone develop feelings for you beyond those appropriate for our profess

"Grandpa, did something happen?" asked Sage. "They've found something on the incident," said Donald. Donald explained that Maven Corporation was in hot water over the tax issue because someone had reported them. What's more, the evidence had come from internal sources. At present, Owen could be granted temporary release because the tax department found that the evidence was fake. Nevertheless, other departments were still investigating the details, so Owen would need to cooperate with the investigation. Sage frowned. Who could have framed Maven Corporation?Owen, his wife, and Zachary arrived at the Joyner residence at dinner time. Owen looked weary after a few days of being investigated by the tax department. Everyone immediately began discussing the Maven Corporation incident. Owen suddenly asked, "Sage, what's up with Ian? Something so serious has happened, but he hasn't said a word.""Why did you come home to stay? Did you guys argue?" asked Susan curiously.Owen and S

Owen wasn't done venting his anger, but he had no choice but to control his temper since his father had spoken. "Sage, how much alimony did you get from the divorce?" Susan decided to change the topic."Why would you ask about that?" questioned Donald in displeasure. "Dad, I'm just worried about Sage. She's still young and naive. She may divorce Ian, but she mustn't lose out on a single cent!" Susan continued, "Sage and Ian were married for a year. His family's so wealthy. There's no way they wouldn't give Sage anything!"Sage knew exactly what her aunt's intentions were. In the previous life, her aunt had pocketed a million dollars from Sage's dowry while she was mentally ill. Without a doubt, Susan hoped that Sage would take as much money from the Holcombs as possible so that she could find a way to pocket it. Sage smiled and said, "Ian planned to give me some money, but I refused." "How… How could you refuse? Are you stupid?" Susan was furious. "So be it if you lost Ia
