A Farewell After Being Reborn novel (Sage and Ian) novel Chapter 89

Chapter 89 

No wonder Ian had been busy lately. It turned out that he was busy kissing up to the 

Shekdotters. 

It must have been difficult for him. After all, he needed to do extra work on top of his regular workload at the company. 

“Mrs. Holcomb,” Ivy politely greeted when she saw Sage. 

Being a sensible woman, she said to lan, “Now that my job here is done, I’m going back to Bolton Investment.” 

“Okay.” 

Once Ivy left, Ian glanced at Sage, who had come here–empty–handed. He seemed to be silently questioning her as to why she didn’t buy anything for him. 

Sage ignored his look as she asked coldly, “Where’s the antique inkwell?” 

Ian frowned, not understanding why Sage’s demeanor had changed even though she had been friendly to him over the phone earlier. 

He recalled Ivy’s presence in his office just now, so he decided to be patient with Sage for once. “Ivy was here earlier to give me a report on tomorrow’s banquet 

“Your relationship with her has nothing to do with me,” Sage interrupted. “Hurry up and give me the inkwell. I’m quite busy, too, you know.” 

Ian fell silent at that moment. In the end, he dug out a wooden box with the antique inkwell in 

it from his drawer. 

“Why don’t I cancel my meeting and head over to Grandpa’s house with you?” 

“No need for that.” 

After Sage accepted the box, she spun on her heel and left. 

This was the reason why she had to get a divorce as soon as possible. 

Why should she continue tolerating Ian’s infidelity toward her? Was she so pathetic to the point that she couldn’t date any other men after divorcing lan? 

At that moment, Calvin happened to bump into Sage outside the elevator. He was torn between greeting her or letting her be when he noticed her brushing past him with an icy look. 

Calvin was perplexed, to say the least. Since when was Sage the type to be so arrogant? 

The first thing Calvin noticed after entering the president’s office was Ian’s thunderous look.

“Ian, did Sage piss you off again?” 

Ian glanced at Calvin, clearly annoyed. “Why are you calling her by her name? Mind your 

manners,” 

Calvin was rendered speechless by Ian’s sudden outburst. He had always been addressing Sage by her name, and he knew for a fact that Ian had never said anything about it in the past. 

Then again, Calvin was pretty experienced when it came to romance and dating. He knew what the trigger was right away. 

It was clear that Ian had already developed feelings for Sage, thus his unusual attention to something as miniscule as how Sage was addressed. 

Calvin quickly changed his tune. “Mrs. Holcomb came here earlier, right? She didn’t seem happy at all. Did you two fight?” 

Ian shot Calvin a pointed look. At first, he didn’t like how much of a gossipmonger Calvin was, but he couldn’t put his finger on Sage’s fluctuating emotions. So, he filled Calvin in on what happened earlier. 

“You’re saying that Mrs. Holcomb looked unhappy the moment she saw Ivy, right?” Calvin looked confused. “But Ivy was here to give you a work report, no? 

“I don’t think Mrs. Holcomb is the type to lump business and leisure matters together. Ian, I need you to think harder. Did you leave out any details?” 

Ian responded in annoyance, “No. Ivy just said goodbye to her before leaving with the gift box. 

“Gift box?” Calvin grasped the keyword immediately. “What gift box?”
