Chapter 226
A Farewell After Being Reborn
âDonât you watch where youâre going?â Ian grumbled. Sage had almost gotten hit by a car.
Startled, she came to her senses. What was she doing? Why did she suddenly get upset with Ian?
Why did she sound so jealous?
It seemed like Tiana had brainwashed her into believing Ian was being good to her and that she didnât
want a divorc
anymore. Sage was terrified when she noticed a glimmer of hope rising in her heart yet again.
Ignoring Ian, she took a step back and said calmly, âI donât want to go to the mall. Iâd just like to go to a
pâtisserie.â
Ian had expected Sage to become enraged and tell him that it had nothing to do with him and that he
didnât need to worry about it. However, she didnât lose her temper at all. She seemed calm and rational
instead.
Naturally, he preferred her current reactionâno fuss and no drama. Just straightforward communication.
She didnât put up an invisible wall that made it impossible for him to communicate with her.
The couple got back into the car, and Ian casually placed the bag of medication on the dashboard. He
then used the GPS to find a renowned pâtisserie.
When they arrived, they noticed a queue snaking out of the store. The pâtisserie must have been
popular.
Sage was about to unbuckle her seatbelt and get out of the car when Ian noticed what she was
wearing. âStay in the car. Iâll go and get the pastries,â he said.
Sage stopped in her tracks when she heard that. Ian then got out of the car. Sage still felt
uncomfortable, so she opened the medicine bag and took out an antacid. She felt parched after taking
them and grabbed a bottle of mineral water from the carâs miniâfridge.
Then, she accidentally spilled some water on the seat and herself while chugging it. Sage hastily wiped
it with a tissue and accidentally knocked the medication Ian bought for Ivy onto the ground.
To keep things clean and organized, the prescription medications were packed in small transparent
bags labeled with their names and dosages. Sage picked them up and took a look to ensure the water
hadnât damaged the medication before stuffing them all back into the bag.
Sage was on her phone when Ian returned. He sat back in the driverâs seat and noticed the water
stains on the console and the water bottle next to it. âHave you taken the antacids?â
Sage nodded absentmindedly. The couple didnât force a conversation on the way back to the resort.
After getting out of the car, Ian offered to send Sage back to her room first, to which she agreed.
Along the way, the couple met several Holcomb Corporation employees, who greeted them warmly.
One of them was bold enough to say, âMr. and Mrs. Holcomb, you guys are literally a match made in
heaven!â
Sage maintained a polite smile. She had already figured out why Ian had gone to such great lengths to
get her to come to Greenfield Resort.
He probably felt bad for leaving her behind at his companyâs party last time, which had caused her to
be criticized, so he wanted to let everyone know that they were fine.
Well, he seemed to have achieved his goal. However, she never cared about being criticized. When
they arrived outside of her room, she told Ian, âYou can go now.â
Ian didnât respond. Instead, he called out to a young housekeeper in front of them and handed him the
bag of medications. âCould you please deliver this to Ms. Shekdotter:in room 3209?â
The man nodded and accepted the bag.
Meanwhile, Sage took the opportunity to open the door to her room. As soon as she walked in, she
was surprised to see not only her belongings inside but also Ianâs.
What was he up to now? Only her belongings were in the room when she arrived earlier in the day.
Sage turned around when she heard Ianâs footsteps. 1
