A Farewell After Being Reborn novel (Sage and Ian) novel Chapter 93

Chapter 93 

Ivy’s smiling face appeared on the screen. “What’s with the early morning call, fan?” 

Ian forwarded the photo to her. “Explain to me why this photo was taken like this.” 

Ivy wasn’t the only one who was shocked by Ian’s question. Even Sage looked slightly surprised. She never expected lan to question Ivy in the first place. 

Meanwhile, Ivy was astonished to see the photo. She soon recalled what happened that day. 

“Didn’t I delete this photo on my social media feed? I have the tendency to show my cooking off whenever I’ve whipped up something nice. After posting that photo, I felt that it wasn’t nice enough, so I deleted it after a while. 

“Why did you save this photo, Ian? Is something wrong with it?” 

Ian asked, “Why did you include my shirt in your photo?” 

“Huh? Did I?” Ivy seemed to be scrutinizing the photo to verify the details. “You’re right. Did Mrs. Holcomb misunderstand our relationship, Ian?” 

Ian answered right away, “She thought I took a shower and spent the night in your apartment. 

It was then that Ivy noticed Sage, who sat next to Ian. She quickly said apologetically, “I’m so sorry, Mrs. Holcomb. You’ve misunderstood lan.” 

After explaining what happened that night, Ivy continued, “Mrs. Holcomb, if you still don’t trust me, I can always ask the property management to show you the security footage of that 

night.” 

Ian turned to look at Sage after hearing Ivy’s suggestion. At the same time, Sage picked up on the trace of provocation and mockery shining in Ivy’s eyes. 

She just smiled before tugging Ian’s tie downward. Then, she stood on her tiptoes and kissed him on the lips. 

Ian could feel the softness of Sage’s lips and her fragrance overwhelming his senses. His breath now hitched in his throat. He dipped down to reciprocate the kiss without thinking about the reason why Sage had kissed him in the first place. 

Since Ian was still holding his phone, he tossed it onto the table immediately, thinking that it was distracting him from enjoying the kiss. He held Sage by the waist with the intention of deepening the kiss. 

But the moment his hands made contact with Sage’s small waist, he felt her pushing him away forcefully.

“Ian, please be gentle with me!” she moaned in the direction of the phone. 

The next thing they knew, Ivy ended the video call immediately. 

A satisfied smile crept onto Sage’s face as she moved to take her seat at the table. She looked so calm as though she wasn’t the one seducing lan just now. 

“Are you satisfied now?” lan asked while suppressing his desire for Sage. 

Sage wiped her mouth with a napkin. “Feel free to explain to Ivy what happened if you’re worried she might misunderstand you.” 

Ian didn’t respond to that remark. If it weren’t for the fact that this was a bad time for him, he’d definitely kiss her without a care in the world till she begged for mercy. 

At that moment, Terry entered the dining room and reminded lan that it was almost time for 

them to leave. 

Ian picked up his phone from the table while gazing at Sage. “Don’t forget to show up at the banquet on time.” 

Sage took a sip from her glass of milk. “Don’t worry. I won’t forget about our little date. I’ve received your payment, after all.” 

Only then did lan walk away. 

As Sage watched Ian’s silhouette leaving her line of sight, she put down her glass and let out a deep sigh. The truth was, she couldn’t endure how pretentious and fake Ivy was during the video call. Hence, she decided to irk Ivy by kissing Ian. 

But Sage didn’t expect lan to return the kiss eagerly instead of shoving her away angrily. 

Was it true that men could easily be intimate with women they didn’t have any feelings for as long as they were horny?
