A Farewell After Being Reborn novel (Sage and Ian) novel Chapter 99

Chapter 99 

Tan looked at Sage, who was eager to draw a line between them. He thought she was still mad about what happened earlier. 

“I’ll have Terry investigate their company and force them out of this industry. They won’t bel able to cause trouble for you anymore.” 

Sage replied, “Don’t. They’ll just think that I’m just a useless woman who uses my connections and social status to oppress them.” 

Ian thought those words seemed familiar. Then, he remembered having made the same remark about Sage in the past. Only then did he realize that Sage was actually mad at him. 

He pursed his lips together before switching the topic. “What’s your purpose for inviting Ms. Davis to this banquet?” 

“Why can’t I invite her?” Sage shot back. “She’s not the one at fault now, is she? In fact, she’s the heroine who stepped up to carry the burden known as Mimosa after enduring her husband’s betrayal. Not many people possess her courage. What’s wrong with me wanting to help her out?” 

Ian just stared at Sage. “Do you really not have other motives for doing that?” 

Sage had worn a pair of high heels just to match her gown. Thanks to that, the gap in height between her and Ian was slightly decreased. She could easily meet Ian’s eyes just by tilting her head slightly. 

“Don’t worry. Even if I do, those motives won’t harm Holcomb Corporation at all. 

Ian didn’t say anything after that. 

Soon, it was the start of the banquet. The emcee started the banquet by giving a quick speech.

After calculating the time quickly, Ivy accepted a man’s invitation to dance with him. 

The guests swayed and twirled to the rhythm on the dance floor. The atmosphere was lively and boisterous. 

At that time, Sage attempted to swat lan’s hand from her waist. Even though ballroom 

dancing required intimate physical contact from both parties, she felt that Ian’s grip on her waist was too tight. 

Currently, Ian had stuck his palm on the small of Sage’s back. She had to exert some strength just to maintain a small distance between her and Ian. 

But if she were to lose focus, she’d find herself clinging to lan’s body once again. 

“Stop wiggling about, Sage,” lan hoarsely muttered before Sage could voice out her complaints. “Even if you plan to seduce me, you should be mindful of our current location.” 

Ian could feel Sage’s soft and smooth skin under his touch. Her unique fragrance, which no other woman possessed, kept wafting up his nostrils from time to time. To top it off, she kept grinding against him as well. 

To lan, this was akin to physical torture.
