Chapter 177

When she first graduated, she did mention that she wanted to work in his office. She wanted to be

close to him and see him every day. Sage was surprised that Ian remembered what she

had said.

However, she was not interested in working anywhere near his office now. In fact, she wanted to stay

as far away from him as possible! However, she was aware he wouldn’t buy it.

There were less than 10 days left until their divorce. There was no need to argue with him anymore.

Hence, she slid into the driver’s seat without another word. Sage was about to start the car when Ian

got into the passenger seat.

“Where do you think you’re going? I haven’t finished talking to you,” he fumed.

Sage looked at him coldly. “What else do you have to say? If it’s about the job, thanks, but no thanks.

I’m not interested in any position in your office. Whoever wants it can have it.”

Ian gritted his teeth when he noticed her impatience. “What the hell do you want, Sage?”

“I want you to get the hell out of my car,” she snapped. “Can you manage that?”

“I’m going home with you,” he said through gritted teeth.

“I’m not going home right now.”

“Where are you going, then?”

“That’s none of your business.”

Her distant demeanor made it seem like he was the one who was pestering her now. His

patience snapped.

Ian

Want to get a divorce because he thought they could work things out. He had done everything he

could, but Sage was still unable to move past their troubles. In that case, he wouldn’t force her to stay.

Ian got out of the car. He had intended to warn Sage, but she stepped on the gas and sped off as soon

as his feet touched the ground. He was rendered speechless.

Sage arrived at her grandfather’s house. Her eyes misted over as she watched her grandfather tend to

his flowers and plants. She was overjoyed that she was still able to be by her grandfather’s side in this

lifetime.

Donald spotted his granddaughter and waved excitedly. “Sage! Come on in, dear.”

Sage wiped away the tears that had gathered in the corner of her eyes. “I just got here. I noticed you

were busy, so I didn’t want to interrupt you.”

Donald chuckled. “Come over here and help your ol‘ Gramps weed the garden.”

“Alright.” Sage picked up a mini hoe and joined Donald in the garden to help with the flowers and

plants.

The sun hadn’t completely set yet, and the afterglow lit up from the horizon. The garden was filled with

a sense of peace and tranquility as the two of them tended to the flowers and plants.

Sage couldn’t help but feel like she had been too obsessed with Ian in her previous life. It got to the

point where she had missed out on the simple joys of life.

“What’s on your mind, Sage? Have things gotten better between you and Ian recently?” Donald

inquired.

Sage was reminded of the gift from a few days ago. “Grandpa, why did you buy a gift for lan in my

name?”

Donald chuckled. “Well, did you buy him a gift yourself?”

Sage pouted. “Of course not! He doesn’t care anyway.”

“I heard from your Aunt Susan that Ian was quite pleased when he received the gift.” Pleased? He

didn’t even bat an eye. Her aunt was definitely exaggerating.

“Grandpa, what did you get him? Was it expensive?” she asked. Sage wasn’t willing to spend

any more money on Ian.

Donald flicked her forehead. “I got him a tie clip, nothing too fancy.”

All of a sudden, she remembered that Ian had been wearing a tie clip when he had helped her the night

before. She found it a little strange at the time since he rarely wore a tie unless it was for a formal

occasion.

Sage now couldn’t help but wonder if he had worn the tie because of the tie clip.
