A Farewell After Being Reborn novel (Sage and Ian) novel Chapter 275

Sage's heart skipped a beat when she heard that. All of a sudden, she recalled the huge order Delilah had mentioned.

Previously, her grandfather had warned her uncle about it. But because she had been accompanying her grandfather in Colville for the past few days, she had forgotten about it. Could Layla be referring to the order from the Strombergs?

Sage rose to her feet abruptly and told Layla, "Let's talk about your matters later. I need to find Uncle Owen now."

With that, she went and found Owen. He was engaged in a lively conversation with Ian's relatives, and he had a smug look on his face. Sage apologized for interrupting them before pulling her uncle aside.

"What on earth are you doing, Sage? This is not how we do things." Owen was displeased.

Sage asked, "Uncle Owen, did the Strombergs introduce you to a big business deal recently?"

Owen's face lit up when he heard that. "Oh, so you've heard about it! Lovell's such a nice guy. He still remembers the favors our family did for theirs in the past. This time, he hooked me up when his friend needed an order."

"Is it still in the works, or have you already sealed the deal?" she asked anxiously.

"We've worked out all of the terms. We're going to sign the contract tomorrow."

Sage heaved a sigh of relief. "Uncle Owen, it's only been a few days, and it's such a huge deal. Yet, the other party agreed to your terms so readily. Aren't you worried that there might be something shady going on?"

Owen looked at her, slightly annoyed. "What do you mean by that? What could possibly be shady? The other party came in good faith and is friends with Lovell. It's only natural that the negotiations went smoothly."

Sage patiently explained, "Uncle Owen, I'm not questioning your judgment. However, I came across a news article a while ago about someone who was in a similar situation to you. There were major complications when it came time to deliver the goods, and the company went bankrupt."
