Chapter 49 “Even if there are risks, one must seek fortune amidst danger. In our line of work, aren’t some risks worth taking?” Seeing Shane’s nonchalant smirk, Sage chuckled. “So, you never considered seeking my opinion.” Shane adjusted himself into a more comfortable position and said, “Ms. Joyner, you’ve got it wrong. I informed you … Read More “A Farewell After Being Reborn Book – Chapter 49” »

Chapter 48 Sage responded, “Okay, send me the address.” The location Shane provided turned out to be a bar. It seemed like private clubs or bars were his regular hangouts. If Sage hadn’t known from her past life that he had a business mindset and performed reasonably well, she might have thought of him as … Read More “A Farewell After Being Reborn Book – Chapter 48” »

Chapter 47 It was a message from Delilah. Sage hadn’t contacted Delilah since she went to Ivy’s place. She had blocked Delilah’s messages on WhatsApp as well. Now that Delilah had sent her a photo on Telegram, it was probably not good news. Sage immediately deleted the message and blocked her number. “Please, you must … Read More “A Farewell After Being Reborn Book – Chapter 47” »

Chapter 46 Ian was unwilling to let her go yet. “Beg me properly one more time.” Sage was both frustrated and confused. She was wondering why she hadn’t noticed so many annoying traits in Ian before. What sort of weird hobby was this? Just then, Sage’s phone stopped ringing. Ian was about to pull her … Read More “A Farewell After Being Reborn Book – Chapter 46” »

Chapter 45 “Stop laughing!” Furious and mortified, Ian viciously grabbed Sage’s wrist. Sage winced as he held her hand tightly. Seeing the fierce glint in Ian’s eyes, she knew he was genuinely angry, and she should stop laughing. However, when she thought of the incredulous faces back in the private room and how speechless everyone … Read More “A Farewell After Being Reborn Book – Chapter 45” »

Chapter 44 When Sage realized that Ian had reverted to his usual demeanor and tone, she became even more certain that he had only pretended to be drunk to fool her. Infuriated, she briskly walked ahead and left Ian behind. A faint perfume lingered as Sage’s silhouette faded into the distance. Jan sent a text … Read More “A Farewell After Being Reborn Book – Chapter 44” »

Chapter 43 Besides, Ian had removed his suit jacket, and a few buttons on his shirt were undone. With his sleeves rolled up, his fair skin and well–defined arm muscles were exposed. Sage promptly stopped herself from staring. She couldn’t afford to be infatuated with his attractiveness again. Shooting him a cold look, she grumbled, … Read More “A Farewell After Being Reborn Book – Chapter 43” »

Chapter 42 To avoid dampening Linda’s spirits, Sage did as instructed, Before reaching the spot, she was captivated by a blooming orchid by the side. She bent down and sniffed it. The wonderful fragrance caused her features to relax instantly, and a gentle smile graced her lips. Sunlight shone on Sage’s delicate face as she … Read More “A Farewell After Being Reborn Book – Chapter 42” »

Chapter 40 “Good evening, Grandma and everyone,” Ian greeted gracefully. “Ian, you’re truly dutiful. You always come to accompany your grandmother, unlike those ungrateful brats in our family who always say they’re busy as an excuse not to show up!” “No kidding! Can anyone be busier than Ian? He runs such a huge corporation. and still manages to make time. I think our grandchildren simply find us bothersome!” “Alas, lan never disappoints. He is both capable and respectful. Mrs. Holcomb Senior is blessed!” As he listened to the aunts‘ praises, Ian wore a subtle smile. Glancing at Sage, he calmly said, “You all are too kind. I don’t have much time to be with Grandma regularly. It’s my Sage who spends more time with her.” Hearing “my Sage” coming from Ian’s mouth made Sage think she was hearing things. Even during social niceties, he had never addressed her like that before! Sage stared at Ian while trying to read his face. However, his expression. remained impassive, like nothing happened. Meanwhile, Linda discreetly observed both of their expressions. She turned to Ian and said, “You’re a sensible boy. It’s good that you know Sage’s virtues!” “Yes, Sage is a dutiful child as well! And she’s beautiful. She’s a perfect match for Ian!” The women continued to shower Sage with compliments. In the midst of the flattering, several other of Ian’s relatives approached him for a talk. Acting like a considerate husband, Ian turned to Sage and said, “You stay with Grandma for a while; I’ll join you shortly.” Sage played along by offering a gracious smile. “Okay.” “Sage and Ian seem to be growing closer!” one of the aunts from Sage’s family remarked. “Sage, when are you two planning to have children? Let’s expand the 1/2 family! Grandma, what do you think?” Linda chuckled at that. “No rush. Sage is still young. When she wants to have children, she will naturally. I’m not that old–fashioned that I would urge for great -grandchildren!” After a few more light–hearted conversations, Linda expressed her desire to take a stroll in the garden, and Sage volunteered to accompany her. After helping Linda up, Sage walked with her to the garden. “Sage, it’s been many days since you contacted me. Do you not want your grandma anymore?” Linda scolded playfully. “Grandma, what are you saying?” Sage pouted. “I’ve said it before; even if I divorce Ian, you’ll still be my grandma!” Linda playfully tapped Sage’s head and chided, “A couple should quarrel and make up in bed. Did you eat the corn chowder I had someone send you last time?” When she recalled the last incident, Sage felt a tingling sensation on her lips. Grandma, please don’t do that again. We haven’t done anything, and it caused quite a bit of unpleasantness.” 1 “I “It must be that brat’s fault again!” Linda shook her head in frustration. “Sage, I can see that Ian is starting to care about you. Aren’t you thinking of changing your mind?” Sage shook her head. They had just put on a facade for the elders. She said in a serious tone, “Grandma, I know you suggested postponing the divorce until after your birthday to give us some time to cool off. But we don’t need it. “I insisted on this marriage. No matter how much time passes, lan won’t change his views on me. I don’t want to tie him down anymore either.” Linda held Sage’s hand and responded earnestly, “Sage, Ian has always been a determined person. If he truly didn’t want to marry you, I can’t have forced him in the first place.”     Chapter 41  Sage picked out the meaning behind Linda’s words, yet she refused to deceive herself. “Linda, you don’t have to comfort me. I’m well aware of Ian’s attitude.” Leaving aside the fact that Ian still despised her, she couldn’t allow herself to harbor illusions about him any longer, even if there were a genuine change in his feelings. She did not want to interfere with the tacit understanding and emotions between him and Ivy again in this lifetime. When she saw Sage’s determined expression, Linda refrained from further persuasion. Clearly, Sage had experienced enough heartache and disappointment to make such a resolute decision. Linda only hoped that Ian would quickly realize the truth and mend Sage’s heart. In the leisure area of the private room, a group of women discussed their children. “My son’s birthday is approaching, and he mentioned that Gentlemen’s Style’s high–end clothes are good. The store sent me a link with several styles; could you … Read More “A Farewell After Being Reborn Book – Chapter 40/41” »

Chapter 39  Regardless, since the investment plan was of no use to her anymore, Sage decided to let Bolton Investment use it. She probed, “Can you add an extra ten thousand?” Ian looked at her and said disapprovingly, “Sage, if you love money so much, why did you act so high and mighty before and claim you wouldn’t accept a penny for personal use?” When they first got married, Ian had offered her a credit card to cover household expenses. But she had refused it. She had wanted to prove she wasn’t in it for the money. Consequently, she used her own funds for gifts and daily expenses. In hindsight, she genuinely regretted that decision. “Why don’t you compensate me now?” Sage asked tentatively. Surprisingly, Ian scoffed in response. “You’re divorcing me. Why should I cover your expenses?” That was a predictable response from a businessman. He wouldn’t take any losses. Sage decided not to dwell on the matter. “Fine. One million it is.” Ian then laid out his conditions. He said, “You’ll have to be involved in following up on the project and handling any modifications to the proposal.” “Ian, you just don’t want to give me the money, do you?” Sage fumed. “I told you I won’t join Bolton Investment, and I won’t be involved in anything related to them!” Ian suppressed his annoyance and said with a frown, “I can make an exception. and let you become an investment analyst in this project. This is your last chance. If you refuse, even talking to Grandma won’t help.” “I don’t give a flying fuck! Are you seriously expecting me to be grateful to you?” Sage ignored Ian’s angry yet confused expression and continued yelling, “Keep 1/3 +15 BONUS your intentions to yourself. I won’t join Bolton Investment even if you come begging, much less go to Grandma for help!” Hearing this, Ian couldn’t bear it anymore. “Sage, that’s enough with your act! Why did you spend so much effort making this investment, then? Don’t tell me it was just for fun?” Sage chuckled. “It’s none of your business.” Ian studied her indifferent face and bellowed, “You better not regret it!” After that, he focused on his emails and ignored her. Sage was relieved to be left alone and continued scrolling on her phone. The car fell into silence again. Shortly after, the driver brought them to a distinctive restaurant in Haldon City. It had a serene atmosphere, refreshing air, various private rooms with excellent views, and a garden area. It was a favorite spot among the upper class. Once out of the car, Ian unexpectedly offered his arm to her. He gestured for her to hold it.

The other reason was to avoid being the subject of gossip among relatives. It was easier to put on a show and save themselves the trouble. To enjoy a peaceful meal, Sage forced a smile and linked her arm with Ian. The waiter guided them to a charming private room by the garden. The room had excellent lighting, and in the center was a large round table with a decorative, man–made waterfall. On the other side was an area for leisure and tea ceremonies. At this point, several relatives were already present. They were either sipping tea 23 … Read More “A Farewell After Being Reborn Book – Chapter 39” »
