Semua Bab A Farewell After Being Reborn: Bab 561 - Bab 570

"He isn't. He's just cheeky and playful." Sage shot down Layla's suspicions.Layla snorted. "How is that possible? The way he stares at you reminds me of how Zachary looks at you. I'm sure Shane is interested in you."But Sage did not have a chance to retort as Susan had shown up. "Sage, Layla, why did you come home together?"Sage turned around and found Susan coming home with the housekeeper, who was carrying bags of groceries. They were probably coming home from a grocery haul.Susan was curious. Sage and Laya, who rarely got along, had come home together for the first time."I called Layla, and she told me she was coming home. I tagged along because I miss your cooking," Sage explained.Susan, though skeptical, did not think much about it. She asked, "Who was that gentleman in the sports car? And why did you take his car?"Surprised that Susan had noticed Shane, Sage introduced him as her boss.Susan immediately inquired, "He's not married yet, is he?"Layla blurted out, "

Susan huffed. "All that matters is that it worked. In the end, Ian still married you. So who's to say that he won't marry Layla?""I won't marry Layla." Ian's voice rang out as soon as she said that.Susan and Sage turned around and noticed Ian, who was dressed in a suit, standing before them. Both of them were taken aback."What are you doing here?" Sage asked."It's none of my business!" Just then, Layla, who was standing behind Ian, poked her head out and admitted, "He showed up here after I sent him a picture!"Sage figured the photo Layla had sent Ian was of her and Zachary sharing a laugh. "I just wanted to pay Uncle Owen and Aunt Susan a visit," Ian said calmly. "Aunt Susan, Sage is my wife. I'll never marry anyone else but her."Susan wasn't the least bit embarrassed. In fact, she burst out laughing. "I was just jesting! Of course, I know you like Sage. I only asked you to let Layla intern at your company to give her a change of environment and some training. That's a

Susan could see right through her daughter. She glared at her discreetly and sighed. "I won't meddle in your affairs then. Why don't you guys carry on and enjoy another cup of coffee? I'll go check on dinner!"Even though Owen wasn't pleased with Sage's attitude, he decided not to say anything since Ian was willing to compromise. And so, what could hardly be called a storm passed in the blink of an eye. For the rest of the evening, Ian and Zachary continued to chat as usual, but there was a tension between them that everyone could sense. Sage felt inexplicably tired. After dinner, she said she was tired and wanted to head home. Zachary rose to his feet and offered to drive her home. Ian looked her way as well. Sage was about to decline his offer when her phone rang. Glancing at the caller ID, she hastily answered it. "Mr. Morrison.""Are you still at your uncle's place? Your suitcase is in my car. I'm nearby. Shall I come to pick you up?""Yes please!" Sage exclaimed. She

After dropping Giselle off at Farsight, Sage was about to head home when she received a call from Priscilla. "Sage, do you have time to grab a bite? There's something I need to talk to you about."Sage recalled how Priscilla had told her she was going to see Benjamin the night before, so she agreed. "Yeah. Where would you like to meet up? I'll head over right away."Priscilla had reserved a table at a quiet private restaurant. She had arrived by the time Sage drove there. After placing their orders, the girls started sipping on some wine. "What did Benjamin tell you today, Priscilla? Does it concern me?" Sage cut to the chase.Priscilla nodded. "It does." She then went on to tell her that Benjamin had actually been incited by someone to kidnap her last time. As soon as she heard that, Sage frowned. "Was it Ivy?"Priscilla's eyes widened in surprise as she looked at Sage. "How'd you know?"So it was her! Sage said through gritted teeth, "Apart from her, I can't think of anyon

Dodging Ivy's outstretched hand, Ian frowned. He turned to Wanda and said, "Tell security that from now on, outsiders aren't allowed to enter Solaris Estate without my permission."Wanda hurriedly nodded. "Understood, Mr. Holcomb."As soon as she heard that, Ivy froze. "What's the meaning of this, Ian? When did I become an outsider? First, you forbade me from entering your office without your permission. Now, I can't even come to your house?"Sensing the tension between them, Wanda hastily said, "I'll be on my way, Mr. Holcomb."After Wanda left, Ian walked into the living room and asked impatiently, "What do you want? If it's about the investigation you asked me to do last time, don't bother asking again. I'm under no obligation to help you find the truth."Tears welled up in her eyes when she heard that. "Why are you being so cruel to me, Ian? What have I done wrong? It's not my fault you and Sage divorced!" He sat down on the couch and looked even more impatient. "I'm sure yo
