A Farewell After Being Reborn novel (Sage and Ian) novel Chapter 60

Chapter 60 

Sage smiled and said, “The company has been at a standstill for the past few years. If it weren’t for the fame of the Holcomb family, it’d probably be even worse off than it is right now.” 

Ever since her uncle, Owen Joyner, took over the company, he grew overly ambitious. He had also switched out some veterans and replaced them with his confidants. 

So, Maven Corporation was doing worse every year. 

Fortunately, Donald still held some prestige, so many people would give him some credit. That was why the company didn’t plummet. 

However, Donald wasn’t in great health, and his energy levels were failing as well. Even though he often reprimanded Owen, the effects were miniscule. 

Last year, after Sage got married to Ian, Owen signed some partnerships by making use of the fact that their family was in–laws with the Holcomb family. It was only then that business started looking up. 

“We can’t depend on the Holcomb family forever. This isn’t a long–term solution. 

Sage continued, “Even though we will spend quite a lot on the management team, they’re professionals, after all. They can help us earn back quite a lot of 

money. 

“You and Uncle Owen won’t have to work so hard, either. It’s not a bad idea, 

right?” 

When Donald heard that, he was a little surprised. “Sage, you’ve matured a lot. You were quite earnest when you analyzed the business stuff!” 

“Come on, Grandpa, stop teasing me,” Sage said playfully. “Grandpa, just 

consider my suggestion, okay?” 

Donald couldn’t resist his granddaughter’s plea at all. “Fine, you do have a point.. 

I’ll discuss this with your uncle soon.”

“You’re the best, Grandpa!” Sage was elated. “Grandpa, be sure to convince Uncle Owen so that he agrees, alright?” 

Donald poked Sage on the forehead. “Tell me, why do you suddenly care about the family business so much? You’ve always had eyes for Ian only, haven’t you?” 

“You said it yourself. I’ve matured!” 

Sage leaned against Donald’s arm as she said softly, “Grandpa, I want to protect you and the things you care about.” 

In her previous life, after she was admitted to the mental hospital, Donald passed away not long after that. Of course, Owen couldn’t manage the company well. 

Before Sage ended her own life, Maven Corporation was already nearing its end. 

Maven Corporation was Donald’s life work. Sage didn’t want it to be ruined like 

that. 

So, she hoped that the company would get back on track with help from 

professional managers. 

“Oh, Sage is here!” 

Sage and Donald were chatting happily when an elegantly dressed woman walked 

1. in. 

Sage looked up. It was her aunt, Susan Turner, 

Owen and Susan had a house in the city, so they rarely visited Donald. 

Sage wondered what brought Susan here today. 

“Aunt Susan,” Sage greeted politely. 

Susan’s smile was a little exaggerated. “You’re such a good child, Sage. You’d drop by to keep your grandpa company from time to time. No wonder he loves. you so much!” 

Indeed, Donald pampered Sage more than he did her cousin, Layla Joyner. That was why Susan never liked Sage.
