A Farewell After Being Reborn

“Our company doesn’t lack connections and resources. Why would we give away our money freely to others?”

Susan then said to Ian, “I’ll just be honest with you, Ian. I came here tonight to make dinner for you because there’s something I need your help with.

“Your uncle wants to partner up with Pacific Group, but they don’t believe in him. So, I was thinking that maybe you could help meet up with them and get us connected?”

“Ian’s really busy nowadays and has no time to help with the Joyner family’s issues, so please don’t burden him further, Aunt Susan!” Sage said coldly.

“What are you saying, Sage? Ian is our family’s son–in–law. How would it be a burden for him to help his in–laws? What do you say, Ian?” Susan then asked lan.

Ian glanced at Sage, who had a cold expression on her face. He then said lightly, “Give me the other party’s information, Aunt Susan. I’ll have someone check on it later before giving

you a reply.”

“Oh, thank

you so much, Jan! I knew you would help us out!” Susan was overjoyed to hear this. She quickly ladled some more stew for Ian. “Drink up, Ian. No one else can cook up a

stew like I can!”

Sage remained silent.

After Susan finished eating, she left the information behind for Ian before leaving happily.

Sage gazed unhappily at Ian. “Didn’t I tell you not to agree to any of Aunt Susan’s “ests?”

“You seem to really not want me involved with the Joyner family’s business,” Ian retorted.

There was no hiding this sort of thing from Ian, so Sage said honestly, “I think it would be better for the Joyner family to get used to not getting any help since we’ll be divorced

sooner or later.”

Ian’s eyes darkened. “Why do you see me as such a cold and heartless person?”

Sage sneered internally. Ian hadn’t cared about the Joyner family in the least bit when she was in the asylum. In fact, many people took advantage of the situation to attack the family, reducing Maven Corporation’s strength. 1

“Ring, ring! Cutie, your phone is ringing-”

Donald happened to call, so Sage didn’t waste any more time with Ian. She went upstairs while answering the phone call.

Donald had heard about Susan’s visit to her home, so he called to ask her about it.

“Susan must’ve heard about my discussion with your uncle about hiring people, then went to find you on her own,” Donald said. He then sighed. “Did she pressure you, Sage?”

Sage consoled Donald instead, “It’s okay. I’m used to being shameless around Ian anyway, so things weren’t too bad.”

“What do you mean, shameless? Don’t you dare speak about yourself like that!” Donald said pitifully.

Sage said in a delicate tone, “I’m just joking. Don’t worry, Grandpa. Ian isn’t upset with me. He even came back home just to have dinner with me!” Content is © by NôvelDrama.Org.

“That’s good,” Donald said gladly.

Just then, Sage saw Ian walk into the room. He had clearly overheard her conversation. His gaze was deep and telling.

“Rest soon, Grandpa. I’ll hang up for now.”

After hanging up the call, Sage rubbed her face. “You can have the master bedroom if you like it so much. I’ll move to the guest room.”

Ian extended an arm to block Sage’s way.

“What are you doing?” Sage’s brows furrowed cautiously.

Ian said, “You talk about divorce every single day, Sage, so I’m sure you no longer feelings for me whatsoever. That means you shouldn’t be affected no matter where stay or whenever I’m around. Why are you so opposed to me staying here in the master bedroom?”

Sage was confused.

What nonsense was Ian saying?

Sage obviously couldn’t live with Ian in the same room if she had no more feelings for him!
