A Farewell After Being Reborn

Chapter 116

“Hello? Earth to Sage. Please don’t tell me you’re feeling sad again because you were thinking about how Ian was panicking about another woman,” Tiana teased when she noticed Sage had spaced out.

Sage rolled her eyes at Tiana. “Do you seriously think a 5–star hotel would have a random safety hiccup?”

“Logically speaking, no,” Tiana answered. “Do you think there’s something fishy about Ivy getting injured?”

Of course, it was suspicious. But Ian must’ve looked into it. Ivy must’ve covered her tracks well if even he couldn’t find anything. Even if she tried to look into it, she would probably find nothing.

But even if she did find something, Ian would probably get the wrong idea and suspect her of scheming again. He might assume she could not move on from him, which was why she was harping on the issue.

Anyway, Ivy was the one in pain. This little scheme of hers would not affect Sage as long as she didn’t care about Ian’s opinion.

“Let’s not talk about this anymore. I have good news!” Sage’s tone lightened up a little.

“What is it?”

“Ian has agreed to sign the divorce papers! As long as we can keep it under wraps from Grandma, we can get our divorce certificate tomorrow!”

Tiana’s eyes widened. “He agreed? Didn’t he insist on getting both your parents‘ consent just a few days ago? Why’d he change his mind so quickly?”

Sage chuckled. “I’m sure he was just giving me a hard time. But with Ivy being injured so severely this time, he’s probably afraid that I’ll do something worse if he keeps stalling.”

“Hold on,” Tiana interjected. “Ian thinks you’re behind Ivy’s injury? Is he out of his mind? Did he forget what kind of person you are? you’re not one to beat around the bush. If you had a problem, you’d confront it head–on!”

Sage was rendered speechless. “I can’t tell if you’re complimenting me for being straightforward or insulting me for being stupid.”

Ignoring her jest, Tiana pressed on. “Is that why you’re so set on divorcing him, Sage?” Sage sprawled on the bed, flipping through a magazine that she found on the bedside table while kicking her feet in the air. “That’s one of the reasons. It’s a long story, but basically, we’re just not a good fit. I don’t want to tie him down with marriage anymore. It’s better for both of us this way.” ”

The door swung open as soon as she said that. Sage whipped her head around and noticed Ian had returned.

Even though she wasn’t sure if he had heard her, his expression was much colder than before.” If looks could kill, she’d be dead right there and then.

“What” Initially, she wanted to question him. But she stopped herself when she met his

gaze.

Ian didn’t utter a word. He strode over to the bed and took his pillow, books, glasses, and other belongings before storming out of the room again.

It all happened in a matter of seconds, and Sage didn’t even have the time to react.

“What’s up with him?” Tiana seemed startled as well. “Did you guys get into a fight? He looked terrifying,” she asked after Ian left.

Sage walked over and locked the door. “Nope. He was acting all strange outside the restaurant earlier. He was rude to my friends, and then he dragged me home. He’s been snappish ever since. Forget it. Have you seen the pictures I posted on Instagram?”

“No, I haven’t. What’s wrong?” Tiana said as she scrolled through her Instagram. “Oh my gosh!”

“So what do you think? Don’t I look beautiful?” Sage tousled her hair smugly.

“Who’s that hunk in your picture?”

“Huh?” Sage tapped on her profile and zoomed in on the picture. It was only then that she realized Michael was also in the picture that Kai took.
