A Farewell After Being Reborn novel (Sage and Ian) novel Chapter 118

Even though it was highly unlikely that Wanda had told Linda about the divorce last time, Sage still wanted to keep it a secret.

After breakfast, Sage left for Holcomb Corporation and breezed into the CEO's office. She was about to walk in when she saw that Owen and Susan were in the office with Ian.

She furrowed her brows and wondered why her relatives were here. Did Ian call them over? Sage looked at Ian questioningly, but he just glanced at her before looking away. Not wanting to be rude, she knocked gently.

The middle-aged couple, who were sitting on the couch, heard her knock on the door and turned to look at her. "What brings you here, Sage?" Susan asked.

Her expression and tone suggested that Ian hadn't told them about the divorce. Sage breathed a sigh of relief and asked them the same question.

"We're here to thank Ian, of course. He introduced us to the CEO of Pacific Group last time, so we brought a little something for Ian as a token of our appreciation! We're also having lunch with the CEO of Pacific Group."

Sage then noticed the fancy gift boxes on the coffee table after Susan mentioned them. From what she had said, it sounded like their business deal hadn't been finalized yet. So, they still wanted Ian to get involved personally.

Sage was speechless. "Aunt Susan, didn't you promise Grandpa that you wouldn't bother Ian for help with the company anymore?"

"Oh come on, Sage. We're not bothering him. Ian and the CEO of Pacific Group are friends. Isn't it normal for friends to have lunch together? It is, isn't it, Ian?" Susan turned to Ian for confirmation.

"He's busy," Sage cut in. "He's got a lot on his plate."

Sage didn't want Ian to be involved in her family's affairs anymore. Plus, she wanted to finalize the divorce smoothly.
