Chapter 521

Delilah's sudden request to meet caught Sage off guard. After all, the last time they crossed paths at the police station, Delilah said she despised her. "Go back to the company on your own, Giselle. I have something to take care of," she said to Giselle.Giselle replied, "Is it urgent? Do you want me to accompany you?"Sage shook her head. "It's alright. It's just something personal.""Oh, by the way, since you consider me your friend now, could I ask you something?" she asked.Giselle nodded. "Go ahead.""How'd you find out that I was pregnant that quickly?" Sage was puzzled. She had found out she was pregnant at the hospital and returned to the hotel within just an hour or two. She couldn't fathom how Giselle got wind of it. Giselle was a little embarrassed when Sage brought up the subject. "I received a message from someone saying you went to the obstetrics and gynecology department at the hospital. "I was skeptical at first but sent someone to look into it. From that,

Sage scoffed. "Delilah, don't you find it ridiculous to even ask for that? After all you've done to me, do you honestly think I'd let you off the hook?"After hearing that, Delilah thought of something and quivered. Then, she pleaded, "I know I messed up, Sage! Could you please forgive me? I promise I'll never come after you again. I'll do whatever you say, just please give me another chance!""I don't need a lackey, nor do I need someone who just blindly follows my orders. If that's all you have to say, I'm not going to waste any more time here." With that, Sage rose to her feet, preparing to leave."Sage!" Delilah called out in a panic. "I didn't want to go after you or your family either. I was forced to—""How'd Ivy force you? Did she hold a knife to your throat?" Sage inquired coldly.Delilah shook her head. "Please help me, Sage. I'm begging you. I promise I'll never do this again…""I will not help you, Delilah," Sage said. "Since you've decided to align yourself with Ivy,

"Please help me, Sage. I know I messed up big time, and I swear I won't ever do it again!" Delilah shuddered, fear evident in her eyes. "I shouldn't have betrayed you or had someone kidnap you. Please forgive me. I promise this will be the last time. I won't pull this kind of stunt again."Observing Delilah's reaction, Sage was genuinely perplexed. "What exactly are you afraid of? Who forced you to come clean to me?" It couldn't possibly have been Ivy, or Delilah wouldn't have revealed her relationship with Ivy. After hearing that, Delilah seemed like she couldn't keep it in any longer and started weeping. "Two days ago, Ian sent someone to tell me that I'd pay a heavy price if I didn't reveal the truth. It's only been two days, and my mom's already had an accident…""You mean… Ian made you do this?" Sage was shocked.Delilah shook her head. "His men didn't flat out tell me what to do, but I know Ian is doing this to me all because of you!"Sage noticed Ian's attitude toward

Delilah sobbed. "I had no choice, Sage. Now that I've told you everything, could you please talk to Ian for me?"Sage snorted. "Do you seriously think you can just talk your way out of this after you've made so many mistakes? If I hadn't been lucky that night, who knows what kind of torture you would've subjected me to!"My family was almost ruined because of your schemes! You'd better advise your father to turn himself in. That might be your only chance for leniency.""That's no different from forcing us into a corner!" Delilah bawled. "How the hell are we supposed to survive after we lose our family business?""People have to face the consequences of their actions. You should've been prepared for the repercussions when you chose this path," Sage responded."Shut the fuck up!" Delilah's eyes blazed with anger. "Stop running your mouth, Sage Joyner! "Without Ian Holcomb, you and your family would be nothing! Everyone knows that your family business has been thriving for the past

Ian stepped outside, answered the call, and asked apathetically, "Why'd you call me at this hour?"While his voice sounded normal, if one listened closely, one could detect a hint of joy. Nowadays, it was rare for him to receive a call from Sage. Hence, it was a pleasant surprise for Ian to receive her call."Did you send someone to find Delilah?" Sage asked on the other end of the line.Instead of answering her, he asked, "Did you go and visit her?""Yeah," she responded. "Her mother had an accident. Was that your doing?"Ian responded, "I'm a law-abiding businessman. I did send someone to talk to her, but I have nothing to do with anything else."Mulling it over, she thought that made sense. After all, he wouldn't stoop to taking action against Delilah's mother. Changing the subject, she asked, "When did you find out that Delilah and Ivy were working together against my family?""A few days ago." His voice dropped a few octaves as he continued, "You were right, Sage. Delilah

After saying that stoically, Ian walked toward the elevator.Terry sighed quietly. He had assumed that Ian's call with Sage would mark a turning point, but it seemed that wasn't the case. Alas, there was no hope of his bonus being restored this month.…Meanwhile, Ian arrived at Calvin's place. The latter had changed into sportswear and was fixing his hair in front of the mirror. He was quite surprised to see Ian. "What brings you here, Ian?"Ian plopped down on his couch and glanced at him. "Where are you off to?"Calvin combed his hair back to make himself look sporty and energetic. "Tiana told me that several hospitals in town will be hosting a volleyball tournament next week. "There aren't a lot of people in their hospital who can play, so they have to invite some from elsewhere. I happen to be free, so I thought I'd join in the fun!"Ian arched his brow when he heard that. "Tiana? When did you and Ms. Ford become so close?"Calvin chuckled. "Tiana said we're friends and

Calvin didn't want Ian to come along because he was genuinely worried about upsetting Tiana. However, it wasn't merely because Ian wasn't invited. It was because he was aware that Tiana wasn't fond of Ian because of what happened with Sage. If he brought Ian along without telling Tiana, she might lash out at him. Even if she could suppress her anger, who'd be able to have a good time playing volleyball when Ian was standing there like a block of ice? Hence, it would be better if Ian sat this one out.Noticing Ian's expression harden, Calvin plastered a smile on his face and came up with a plausible excuse. "Ian, when Tiana called me, she didn't mention Mrs. Holcomb would be there. So you wouldn't be able to do anything even if you went. Why don't you head back to work? After all, you seem quite busy!"Ian glanced at him, clearly seeing right through him. With a stoic expression, he rose to his feet and walked out of the door before Calvin could say anything else."Don't worry

"Would I be wasting your time by calling you over to help us with the tournament?" Tiana asked. Calvin responded with a smile, "Of course not! You're not like the others. Besides being Mrs. Holcomb's best friend, you're also my friend. For a friend, I'd do more than just join a match. I'd go all out!"When she heard that, she couldn't help but tease him. "I doubt you'd be able to go all out. After all, you'd faint at the sight of blood."His cheeks heated up when she pointed out his weakness. "I don't faint every time I see blood… Besides, I'm a pretty good fighter. I could easily take on three people at once!""I believe you!" Tiana nodded earnestly.When he noticed her reaction, Calvin couldn't help but burst into laughter, and a good chunk of his embarrassment faded away. He scratched the back of his head and said, "I have no idea why, but I feel dizzy and lightheaded whenever I see blood. A lot of people think I fake it to avoid danger."“It's okay. Hemophobia isn't a rare

Judging by Calvin's reaction, Tiana could guess what was going on. "Did Ian organize the lucky draw and also rig it to have Sage win?" asked Tiana. Calvin nodded and said, "Ian is really trying to win Sage back. Don't let Sage know about this, will you?" Tiana obviously knew that Sage would refuse to go if she found out about Ian's arrangements."But how is Ian going to attend with Sage? The lucky draw is a pair event. Sage already found another partner after Priscilla and I said we were busy," said Tiana."Who's her partner?" asked Calvin.Tiana said nothing and picked up her cup of coffee. She lifted it slightly and said, "Let's have some coffee first." Calvin clinked his cup with hers and took a hasty sip. "Tiana, cut to the chase. Hurry up and tell me who Sage is going with! I'm dying to know." Tiana put down her cup and said casually, "Shane Morrison."Calvin slammed his cup on the table loudly. He looked flabbergasted. "Shane?!" He couldn't believe his ears. "How

Tiana didn't really care about whether Ian recognized his own feelings. Last time, Ian had carried the injured Ivy off right in front of Sage and ignored her. It was time for Ian to get a taste of his own medicine! Of course, Tiana didn't tell Calvin what she was thinking. She refilled his coffee and raised her own cup. "Cheers to our little secret," she said. "Cheers!"…Sage had just gotten back to the office when Shane phoned her to summon her to his office. "You had lunch with Giselle?" asked Shane.He was sitting at his desk like he had nothing better to do, and he had his legs atop the desk. "Yeah. Is something the matter?" said Sage."Don't tell me you shared with her some tips on how to chase after a guy?" joked Shane.Sage knew that he was indirectly teasing her about how she had once tried to win Ian's heart.She rolled her eyes and said, "Mr. Morrison, narcissism is a disorder. You should get treated for it. Giselle only wants to focus on her career now. Sh
