A Farewell After Being Reborn novel (Sage and Ian) novel Chapter 205

Then, she spotted Ian's car approaching. Sage ran over to it, ignoring Shane, who was "in pain", and Giselle, who was in tears. She swung open the car door and slipped inside without hesitation.

Ian was glancing at the entrance with a hardened expression. Sage figured he must've seen Shane standing in her way. However, she didn't feel the need to explain herself to him.

After all, he was much closer to Ivy and never explained himself to her. So why should she bother?

"Let's go," she said to the driver.

The driver turned to look at Ian and waited for his instructions. Ian shifted his attention to the driver and nodded at him. He then asked, "Why did you meet up with Shane again?"

"Don't even start," she scoffed. "Why can't I meet with him? It isn't my problem that you and Shane don't get along."

Ian was taken aback. "Sage, can't you tone down your attitude and have a normal conversation with me?"

"Oh, sorry honey, but I'm very petty. I can't have a civilized conversation with you."

Sure enough, she wasn't coquettish like she was on the phone when she was in the car with him. Ian decided not to dwell on this subject anymore. Instead, he said, "So what just happened? Did Shane give you a hard time?"

Regardless, Ian did save the day, so she didn't snap at him. "It was just a minor issue. No big deal."

Shane had called her over to be his human shield. However, he still had something she needed, so she couldn't afford to turn against him.

"By the way, why'd you call?" she asked.
