A Farewell After Being Reborn

Ian looked up at Calvin, who had already changed into swimming trunks and was now wearing sunglasses. He strutted around like a peacock flaunting its feathers, drawing the admiring glances of many girls.

“Are you done? If so, you’re free to go,” Ian said, dismissing him.

Unabashed, Calvin said, “Since I’ve come all this way, and it’s still early, it’d be a shame if I didn’t soak in this 5–star natural hot spring.”

lan wasn’t the least bit surprised by his shamelessness. Plus, he couldn’t be bothered to deal with him. He simply ordered, “Stay away from me.” He found Calvin’s ostentatiousness embarrassing.

“Where’s Mrs. Holcomb, Ian?” Calvin was unfazed by his attitude. He snickered. “I heard you guys were recently seen canoodling in public. Is that true?”

The thought of Sage’s supple body and the way her cheeks flushed while she was pressed against him reignited lan’s desire. He crossed his long legs and said, “That’s none of your business.”

“You’re so heartless, Ian. How could you prioritize hoes over bros?” Calvin lamented, “I was the one who convinced Ms. Ford to bring Mrs. Holcomb here. Yet, you’re not even willing to share such a joyous moment with me!”

“Shut up,” Ian snapped, annoyed. He looked ahead and noticed Sage and Tiana getting out of the pool and heading for the dining area. He couldn’t help but stare at Sage as she walked away Her hair was slightly damp, her curves were accentuated, and her fair skin was glowing under the sunlight. Sage looked like a mermaid who had just emerged from the sea.

Ian had never found Sage particularly attractive in the past. Why did he suddenly think she looked so much better now? He even felt uneasy when other men’s gazes lingered on her.

Calvin followed Ian’s gaze and spotted Sage and Tiana. The girls were both wrapped in towels and laughing so hard that their eyes crinkled. “Aren’t you hungry, Ian? Don’t you want to grab something to eat?” he asked pointedly.

Ian looked up at him. “Are you hungry?”

Calvin was aware that Ian just couldn’t bring himself to admit that he wanted to be near Sage, so he nodded. “I’m starving. Would you mind grabbing a bite with me?”

Ian begrudgingly rose to his feet. “Let’s go.”

Calvin trotted over to Tiana and Sage and took off his sunglasses with a flourish. “Hey, ladies!” “What are you doing here, Calvin? I thought you said you were busy today,” Tiana greeted

him.

Calvin felt a little dejected. After all, he was a handsome guy with a killer body. He wondered why Tiana was able to greet him so comfortably.

Sage, on the other hand, blushed and turned away when she noticed Ian. That was the kind of

reaction one would expect from a girl when she ran into a handsome guy. Copyright by Nôv/elDrama.Org.

Sage couldn’t bring herself to look lan in the eye. He was wearing nothing but a pair of swimming trunks and had a towel draped over his shoulders. He had broad shoulders and narrow hips. His

muscles were toned but not overly so.

Even though she had seen him shirtless before, the dim bedroom lighting made it difficult for her to get a good look at him. Sage couldn’t bring herself to look at him… especially his long, powerful legs and the impressive bulge beneath his swimming trunks.

“Join us, Mr. Holcomb!” Tiana said casually.

Even though Calvin was a little hurt, his senses were still keen. “Ms. Ford, the grilled seafood over there looks amazing. Let’s get some!”

Tiana got his drift. “Sure. Sage, you should get some snacks over here with Mr. Holcomb.”

Sage hurriedly said, “I’ll go with you guys!”

“No, it’s alright. We’ve got this.” With that, Tiana and Calvin walked off, chatting away. Sage was at a loss for words.

lan smiled when he noticed her ears turn red. “Mrs. Holcomb, would you mind getting me something to eat? After all, you know what I like.”

Sure enough, she raised her head and glared at him. “Do you not have hands? Why should I help you?”

Ian was unfazed. He walked over to her and took her plate. “Let me help you, then.”

There were a lot of Holcomb Corporation’s employees in the dining area. Even though they greeted the bickering couple respectfully, they kept sneaking glances at them.

Sage could feel their gazes on them. She assumed he was doing it on purpose. He clearly knew that there were a lot of his employees around, and that was why he approached her and acted all

chivalrously.

Sage pushed him away. “I don’t need your help. I can manage on my own.” Before she could withdraw her hand, she heard him let out a muffled groan, and she saw his forehead crease.
