Donald replied, "Ian played a game of chess with me. He said you left a brooch over at Holcomb Manor when you visited Mrs. Holcomb Senior. So, he sent it back here for you."Sage was rendered speechless. She had to hand it to Ian. It'd only been a few hours since she sent the brooch to Linda. But now, it was back at Donald's place. He didn't even mention it when they were at the curio shop."Sage, why aren't you saying anything? Are you mad at me again for talking to him?" Smiling, Donald continued, "Remember, you're only divorced. That doesn't make you two enemies. I can't just drive him away when he comes to visit, can I?"Knowing that Donald had misunderstood her, Sage decided not to explain herself. She ended the call after exchanging a few endearing words with him.After giving it some thought, she decided against calling Ian to ask him about this. He'd made up his mind about letting her keep the brooch. In any case, she could always auction it off and give him the money she e

Sage didn't have the energy to deal with Henry's issues. She said, "Let's get our boarding passes."The seats she booked were in business class, which was relatively peaceful. It was so that she could keep a clear mind. Meanwhile, her bodyguards were in economy class.After taking their seats, Henry scanned his surroundings repeatedly. It seemed like he was watching for something."Henry, did something happen that you didn't tell me about?" Sage asked frankly.Henry shook his head. "No, there isn't. It's my first time flying in the business class. I'm just not used to it."Because of the time difference, it was still daytime when they arrived at Toledon. The moment Sage turned on her phone, she received a call from Shane.She instructed Henry to hail a taxi as she accepted the call. "What's up, Mr. Morrison?""Sage, where did you go? Giselle told me you're not coming to work for a few days."Sage told him honestly that she was at Toledon to deal with some matters."Is this abo

From the passenger seat, Henry said scornfully, "Save your efforts. I passed you the water, but you refused to drink it. Who do you have but yourself to blame?"Sage felt weak all over and was starting to feel groggy. "What… are you… up to?""You'll know when we get there."Upon hearing that, Sage knew she was in danger. She slumped in her seat. Using the last of her energy, she reached for the phone in her handbag.Then, she pressed hard on the emergency dial key on the side of the phone. That was what she and her bodyguards had agreed on—she would inform them immediately when she was in trouble.Feeling dizzy and weak, she had to do it without Henry realizing. So, she had to bite hard on her tongue to keep herself conscious.She glanced at the screen with great difficulty. Her vision was already blurred.Following her instincts, she pressed where the emergency button should have been. Now, it was a matter of luck whether or not the call would get through.The car was still sp

However, Sage didn't expect Ivy to be so harsh to Henry and his mother. Meanwhile, Henry was powerless against Ivy and had never let slip about his predicament to Sage."You asked Layla out once before. Did you also do that because Ivy told you to?" Sage asked.Henry let out a sinister chuckle. He wasn't afraid to let her know his motives. "That was on my own volition. I was thinking if that incident in Damsburg had taken place, Ivy would've let me off the hook."What a scumbag! Sage didn't have the leisure to get angry over that. Instead, she asked earnestly, "Why didn't you tell me you were in such a dilemma? We could've figured a way out together.""Figure a way out together? You'd only want me to suffer more!" Henry snapped. "Don't think I didn't realize that. You look down on me and are only using me!"Sage knew he was referring to the incident with Layla. She said, "Indeed, I didn't want you getting together with Layla."And it's true our relationship is founded on material

Upon hearing that, Henry's face changed. Sage knew she had hit the nail on the head. She continued persuading him. "We came to Toledon together and met with an accident at the same time. Won't that appear more reasonable?"After getting rid of us, who are hindrances to her, Ivy can then resume her life without suffering any losses. She has her father and Shekdotter Inc. behind her, while you are disposable."She continued, "Let's say she allows you to live. You'll have to live the rest of your life in the shadows. How about your mother? And you. Are you willing to live like a rat in the gutters?"Henry fell silent. The smugness and scorn in his eyes faded. Sage felt anxious deep down, but she didn't let that show on her face. She nonchalantly urged, "Ivy's coming. You'd better make up your mind."Finally, Henry looked up. He asked doubtfully, "Will I get to live if I disobey her? I lured you to this place. Will you let me off the hook?"Sage said frankly, "I am mad at your bet

Henry's only talent was in deception and manipulation. He could get things done in a snap by bribing those driven by greed."Make sure they obey your commands. If Ivy tries anything on me later, make sure they treat her the same way!" Sage's voice was cold and resolute.Henry, who also harbored deep resentment toward Ivy, readily agreed upon hearing her words. "No problem. I'll be the first one to act when the time comes!"Henry was also inhumane and unscrupulous. How could he even entertain such thoughts about Ivy, his distant cousin? But there was no time to dwell on this now.Sage suppressed her disgust. "Quick, get the self-defense weapon from my bag." Ivy's next move was unpredictable. So, even though a few of them outside had been bribed, Sage couldn't afford to let her guard down.Henry was worried Ivy would arrive soon, so he loosened the ropes restraining Sage and handed her the weapon. Before leaving, he cautioned Sage, "You're on your own now. If things go wrong lat

Ivy said," Sage, did you know that people can be sold like livestock here? If luck is on your side, you might end up in the red-light district. Given your figure and looks, you could serve some clients once you shed your pride."Ivy spoke casually. It was as if she were discussing the sale of pets. "But if luck isn't in your favor, you could end up with severed limbs or losing some organs. Who knows, you might become a beggar or a plaything. It all depends on your fate."Sage felt a chill run down her spine as Ivy's words sank in. Her tone was gentle and cheerful. Goosebumps rose on Sage's arms involuntarily."Are you out of your mind? Do you think you can just walk away if something happens to me?""Hmph." Ivy let out a cold laugh as she held an iron rod in her hand. She extended it and pressed it against Sage's slender neck. "Sage, you mentioned Ian earlier. Did you think that he can save you?"The icy touch of the iron rod made Sage quiver involuntarily.Satisfied, Ivy smi

Ivy was boiling with anger. Just when she was about to take another swing at Sage, Henry ran into the room after hearing the commotion. "Didn't I ask you to do a search before tying her up? How was she able to free herself?" Ivy questioned Henry in a frigid tone. The viciousness on Ivy's face made Henry shudder. Immediately, he expressed his loyalty by explaining, "I did search her, Ivy!" He took a quick glance at the blade in Sage's hand. It was only about the length of a finger. He continued, "She might have been holding it in her hands all along, even while she was unconscious. So, I might have overlooked it."I'm guessing that she cut herself free from the ropes with the blade too. I'll tie her up this instant, Ivy. I'll make sure that she's bound properly this time!" Henry hurriedly said as he reached out for the ropes. "No need for that!" Ivy shouted. "What's wrong, Ivy?" Ivy put the iron rod aside. A smile spread across her frigid face. "Have you all had the beer fr

The few men beside them were aroused further by this scene. They quickly joined in. Soon enough, the rag in Ivy's mouth was pulled away. But, before she could make any sound, a different kind of filth was being stuffed down her throat. The warehouse was soon filled with the men's sounds of pleasure and forced groans coming from Ivy. Only a couple of minutes had passed. Sage hid herself in the corner as she held onto the iron rod and mobile phone that Henry had kicked to the ground. Her heart was still pounding. She couldn't calm herself down. She watched as the men tormented Ivy in every way possible. If she hadn't convinced Henry to bribe these few people, she would have been in Ivy's position! Ivy didn't deserve any pity. But Sage didn't dare to let her guard down either. She had paid off the men in the room. Even so, lust did not discriminate. She would never know if they would end up diverting their attention toward her. Ivy's men were also standing guard outside. S

Having read the room, Sage didn't budge. She repeated herself, informing the men that she had money and that she could offer them a higher payment. "Why should I believe that you have money just because you said so?" Then, a middle-aged man with an undercut walked over from the parking lot. His outfit made him look like a big shot. The two men with the batons nodded politely at him. They addressed him as "Mr. Tony" in a flattering manner. Tony Andretti looked Sage up and down. In Elstinian, he said, "Pretty women like you cannot be trusted with their words." He studied Sage with a gleam in his eyes. "Not unless you can whip out tens of billions this instant," he added avariciously. Naturally, Sage wasn't able to offer that amount. Even if she had cards or cash on hand, they wouldn't be enough to satisfy him. A muffled cry came from the warehouse. Ivy had probably heard Tony's voice from inside and tried to cry out for help. Tony took a quick glance through the doors, be
