A Farewell After Being Reborn novel (Sage and Ian) novel Chapter 227

"What is the meaning of this?" Sage asked as she pointed at his belongings.

Ian responded calmly, "Everyone at the company knows we're married. What will they think if we sleep in separate rooms?"

There was only a week left until their divorce. Everyone would find out then anyway. However, she kept her mouth shut as she didn't want him to think that she was throwing a tantrum and green with jealousy.

Instead, she quipped, "Ian Holcomb, if you're feeling frisky and need someone to satisfy your urges, there are plenty of volunteers outside. Don't drag me into your mess."

Ian gave her a cold look, probably because her words stung. "You were the one who slipped and fell into my arms in the afternoon. You were in a bikini, and you were so close to me. I'm a man, not a saint. I think it's pretty normal for me to react."

Sage was rendered speechless. After all, she had been careless and slipped into his arms in the afternoon. She couldn't be bothered to waste her breath on him anymore, so she ignored him and went to the bathroom, where she washed her hair and took a shower.

Then, she sprayed some medicine on her shoulders. Sage put on a face mask and did some skin care after washing her hands. The whole process took over an hour.

Ian was still going through his emails on his laptop when she came out. His being so busy actually made her feel a bit relieved. At the very least, he wouldn't have any other inappropriate thoughts.

Since she wasn't sleepy yet, she looked at her slightly damp hair and decided to go back into the bathroom to blow dry it.

Ian's phone rang just as she was about to walk into the bathroom. His tone changed dramatically after he picked up the phone. "How could that happen? I'll come over right now."

His expression suggested that something urgent had occurred. Ian's gaze shifted to her while she was lost in thought.
