A Farewell After Being Reborn novel (Sage and Ian) novel Chapter 96

Chapter 96 

Everyone murmured among themselves when they noticed Priscilla. 

“Isn’t that Mrs. Xenith, who’s currently working in Mimosa? Why is she here?” 

“Mrs. Xenith? She’s already divorced, you know. She’s now Ms. Davis.” 

“She must be here to convince people to invest in Mimosa. I heard that Benjamin has already stolen Mimosa’s core technology as well as a huge sum of money. Perhaps it’s tough for 

Mimosa to continue its daily operations right now.” 

“That’s a huge possibility. Look, she even brought such a young and beautiful woman with her. That woman must be Mimosa’s PR manager.” 

At that moment, Terry approached Sage. He nodded at her politely before saying, “Mrs. Holcomb, Mr. Holcomb will join you soon. Please excuse me for now.” 

Sage nodded in response. “Alright.” 

The simple interaction between those two was enough to make the guests widen their eyes in shock. They could see Terry’s shining name tag being pinned on his breast pocket, indicating that he was Ian’s personal assistant. 

Since he had addressed the young woman as “Mrs. Holcomb“, did that mean she was Ian’s wife? 

If Ian truly had such a beautiful wife in the first place, why didn’t he bring her along to public events in the past? 

Also, why was she and Priscilla standing together? 

Sage continued smiling in the face of the guests‘ puzzled and intrigued looks. She deliberately invited Priscilla to the banquet just to show everyone that Mimosa wouldn’t anytime soon.

In a way, it was Sage’s way of showing that Mimosa still had a strong force backing it up. She decided to let the guests ponder about whether or not Holcomb Corporation was the backer.

The 

echelons always worshiped the strong while trampling all over the weak. Now that all the banquet guests noticed Sage and Priscilla standing together, they wouldn’t dare to harm Mimosa without thinking their decisions through. 

If anything, they might start paying attention to Mimosa out of curiosity. 

This was the goal that Sage wanted to achieve. 

Priscilla was no greenhorn either. The moment she noticed the confusion and wariness in the guests‘ expressions, she said with a smile, “This woman is Mr. Holcomb’s wife. It’s rare for

her to attend such social events. 

“She’s only attending the banquet tonight just to celebrate Holcomb Corporation’s success.” 

Everyone started kissing up to Sage right away upon hearing Priscilla’s words. 

“You really are humble, Mrs. Holcomb. Not only are you beautiful, but you’re also blessed with an amazing figure. If it weren’t for Ms. Davis‘ introduction, we wouldn’t have known that you’re Mr. Holcomb’s wife.” 

“Precisely. Mrs. Holcomb, you should attend social events more often. That way, we’ll be able to get to know you better, just like how Ms. Davis is affiliated with you.” 

Sage made small talk with the guests with a smile on her face. 

“Mr. Holcomb is here!” someone exclaimed all of a sudden. 

Everyone turned to look in a certain direction. Sage did the same as well, soon noticing Ian walking toward her in a black tuxedo. His gait was well–paced, and he looked dashing as 

ever. 

Even though everyone present at the banquet was well–dressed, none of them could outshine Ian’s charming looks. It seemed that he would always be the center of attention anytime, 

anywhere. 

Ian’s handsome visage looked exceptionally dazzling under the illumination of the lights in the banquet hall. 

In Sage’s past life, she’d feel proud whenever she saw Ian being admired by countless people. Even though she was no longer obsessed with him now, she still found it difficult to look away from his handsome face.
