A Farewell After Being Reborn novel (Sage and Ian) novel Chapter 187

Sage was perplexed. "What are you on about? I just sent you some rough information."

"Cut the act," he teased. "Ian seems to be treating you well. He doesn't look like he's going to dump you."

"Mr. Morrison, could you just get to the point?"

Shane crossed his legs and said lazily, "I just got word that Professor Braun has decided that you'll be in charge of their drug promotion and distribution."

Sage was stunned. "How's that possible? Are you sure?"

She had just met with Collin yesterday, and he clearly wanted to work with Holcomb Corporation. Besides, Ivy also went to negotiate with them. How could he have decided to hand the project over to her after just one day?

Shane snorted. "My sources are never wrong. Either Ian cares a lot about you, or he's giving you this as compensation because he's going to dump you."

Sage couldn't be bothered to respond. Instead, she asked, "How's the thing I asked you to do?" She realized that they would need to expedite the matter if Collin really gave her the distribution rights.

Shane grinned when he heard her question. "Don't worry, Ms. Joyner. I'll take care of it. They will willingly walk into our trap."

"Thanks… I'll catch you later." Sage hung up the phone and immediately dialed Ian's number.

The phone rang for several moments, and just when she thought Ian wouldn't answer, his deep voice came through the phone. "What's up?"

It was especially quiet on his end, and he sounded like he had something else to attend to.

"Are you in a meeting? I can call you back later," she asked.
