A Farewell After Being Reborn novel (Sage and Ian) novel Chapter 143

She had sold those exact earrings at half price on a second-hand website two days ago. Perhaps because it was cheap, it was snapped up the same day it was listed. Why were her earrings here with Layla now?

"Your earrings look nice. Where did you get it?" Sage asked.

There was a hint of pride on Layla's face as she replied, "You've got a good eye. These are the latest earrings from Gorgine Fits. They are very hard to come by. Henry had a friend go to great lengths to buy them for me."

"As long as you're not mad at me anymore, it's worth the effort I put in," said Henry. His words were as sweet as honey.

Layla rolled her eyes at him and looked at Sage provocatively, saying, "Why are you staring at my earrings? Are you jealous? Does Ian not buy you earrings?"

"He did, but I threw them in the trash. They're the same ones that are now on your ears," Sage thought to herself. Of course, she didn't say that out loud.

Instead, she chuckled lightly and said, "I saw a similar pair on a second-hand website a couple of days ago. I was worried you might be wearing fakes, so I wanted to take a closer look."

After hearing her words, an awkward look appeared on Henry's face, and he quickly explained, "Sage, this is definitely not a fake. Although my friend lost the certificate, I took it to the official store for verification, and it's absolutely authentic!"

Sage comforted, "I only saw something similar. I didn't say that yours was fake. Don't worry too much. Besides, you don't seem like someone who would buy gifts for your crush from a second-hand website."

Henry exclaimed, "Of course not! I just didn't want Layla to misunderstand. Next time, if she likes something, I'll bring her to pick it out at the store together!"

"Ignore her. She just can't stand me receiving gifts when she doesn't. She's just jealous!" Although Layla's words were aggressive, her tone noticeably lacked conviction.
