Semua Bab A Farewell After Being Reborn: Bab 431 - Bab 440

Calvin was taken aback. He quickly found a quiet spot and said, "Sage, what are you talking about? You're divorced?"He was utterly shocked. "How could Ian possibly agree to a divorce? You're joking, right?"Calvin had seen the news online, but most of the comments were unfavorable toward Ian. He guessed that Sage must be the one behind it.Calvin knew that siding with either one of them would hurt the other, so he just acted oblivious about it and did not get involved. However, he never expected Ian and Sage to get divorced just days after the audio incident!"Why would I joke about something like that? You may also call me Ms. Joyner from now on," said Sage. "Miss… " Calvin couldn't bring himself to call her Ms. Joyner, so he said, "What happened? Why did you get divorced? Is it because of the baby?"He had heard from Tiana that Ian tried to force Sage to abort the baby, and he had tried to talk Ian out of it. But Ian just wouldn't listen. So did they get divorced because they

"I already warned you not to touch her child or she would hate you, but you just wouldn't listen! Are you happy now that you've lost her?" said Calvin. He quickly shrunk away for fear that Ian would hit him again out of anger and humiliation. However, Ian did and said nothing. Ian looked as if he had been slapped. He no longer looked fierce, and the icy look in his eyes melted away. Was that a look of… loneliness Calvin spotted?Suddenly, Calvin realized how harsh his words had been. Ian had been pretending to be fine all along, but he had exposed him. Calvin could only imagine how much worse Ian felt now."Ian, I…" He was about to offer Ian a few words of comfort when Ian stood up.Ian stood tall, but there was an air of sadness about him. He tossed his glass aside and walked out of the room unsteadily. Calvin chased after him to send him off, but Ian pushed him away and walked into the elevator. Calvin quickly called the driver to make sure that he was waiting for Ian downst

Zachary continued, "I've seen the materials, and I think only someone in top management could have access to them. I think it's most likely that Uncle Owen and Aunt Susan slipped up." Sage was shocked. "You're such a detective! Have you talked to them about this?"Zachary shook his head and said, "I wanted to bring it up at dinner this evening, but…" His plans had been interrupted by the news of Sage's divorce. Sage wanted to apologize, but Zachary sensed it and said gently, "Don't blame yourself. They're not calm enough to hear this yet. I'm sure they'll lose it if I bring it up so suddenly. It won't be too late if I gather more evidence and confront them a few days later."Zachary was always gentle and thoughtful. He had a way of making others feel comfortable. Sage stopped worrying and told him about Delilah being seen at Owen's study. "Uncle Lovell was behind the spice consignment. They weren't able to sabotage the contract at that time, so maybe they wanted to cause troubl

Ian had been trying to find out Ron's whereabouts over the past few days because he wanted to know who was the mastermind. He finally had news. "Send some men over to get him under control first. I'll deal with him tomorrow," said Ian.Terry hesitated and said, "Mr. Holcomb, I think you'd better come to the office." Ian's frown deepened. Terry always knew his boundaries and wouldn't disobey him carelessly. Ian guessed that the situation must have been difficult. "Wait for me at the office. I'll be there in 40 minutes," said Ian before hanging up. In the yard, Zachary's emotions had toned down a little, and he was now talking to Sage in a normal tone. Ian had also calmed down a lot after Terry's phone call.He had come to ask Sage about the present, not to argue. If he had rushed up to her and grabbed her, Sage would most likely hate him even more.Since he was in a rush, he planned to just say hi to her and leave. However, he saw Zachary wrapping his coat around her shoulder

After Grandpa left, Sage seemed a bit puzzled and asked, "Madam Matilda, what brings you here?"Matilda didn't answer directly, but instead asked, "Sage, how are you feeling now? Are you doing better?""I'm doing alright now. The doctor's been treating me every day," Sage replied.She then added, "I was actually thinking about dropping by to see you and Grandma sometime. I didn't expect you to come by yourself.""Good to hear you're feeling better," Matilda said kindly. "I've been away from home for quite a while now and haven't had the chance to visit Mr. Joyner Senior. It's been rather neglectful of me, I must admit.""I'm actually planning to head back to Yremdale tomorrow, so I wanted to stop by and see you all before I leave," Matilda explained.Sage finally understood why Linda spoke so highly of Matilda's elegance and intellect. However, Sage couldn't help but wonder why Matilda had been away from home for so many years and hadn't shown any interest in Ian."You've only b
