A Farewell After Being Reborn novel (Sage and Ian) novel Chapter 195

Sage was surrounded by white walls and had an IV drip attached to her arm. How did she end up in the hospital?

All of a sudden, memories of what had happened in the bar flooded back. The beer-bellied man had tried to hit Ian, so she pushed him away and was injured in the process.

"Hey. You're awake." Ian's low voice brought her back to reality.

Sage looked up and noticed Ian sitting by the bed. He looked tired. His brows were knitted and his face looked haggard. He usually took care of his appearance, but now, he looked disheveled.

His suit jacket had been tossed carelessly over the back of the chair, and he was propping his head up with one hand. His sleeves were rolled up, revealing his strong wrists.

"Are you feeling any pain?" Ian asked, sitting up.

Sage moved her body. Aside from her shoulder and a headache, she was fine. "I'm fine. Where's Tiana? Has she gone home?" she asked hoarsely.

His eyes darkened as he looked at her. "Why did you do that, Sage? Fortunately, that guy was drunk and didn't use much force. Otherwise, you would have been seriously injured."

Sage felt a wave of regret and fear wash over her when he recounted the incident. She was also feeling a little down.

Her tendency to prioritize Ian over everything else was overwhelming. Even though she had another chance at life, she couldn't fix it.

"Don't worry, it won't happen again," she mumbled.
