Ian ignored Shane.Downstairs, Terry was cleaning up. They walked out of the bar.Sage hastily shook off Ian's hand.Ian's expression shifted a little. Then, he said in a cold voice, "Give your car keys to the driver. You're getting in my car."Sage was puzzled. "How did you know that I drove here?"Ian said in an unfriendly tone, "Anyone with eyes will notice the striking color and license plate of your car!"Sage fell silent.Her Maserati was one of the wedding gifts from her grandfather.The color of the car was a bright red, and the license plate was a combination of her initials and birthday.It wasn't low-profile, but it definitely wasn't as flashy as Ian had described it to be.The driver had already gotten out of the car. Without thinking too much about it, Sage handed the car keys to him. Then, she tactfully got into the passenger seat of Ian's car.After Ian started the car, Sage couldn't help but ask, "Why were you in the area at this hour?"This place was quite

Ian could barely suppress his anger. He said in a cold voice, "If I could afford to let others tarnish your identity as Mrs. Holcomb, do you think I'd spend my time bothering about your business?"Sage knew it.That must also be why he had such a concerned look in his eyes when he arrived at the second floor.Fortunately, Sage wasn't as presumptuous as she used to be. If not, Ian would be leading her by the nose again.Sage retorted carelessly, "If you don't want to bother about my business, hurry up and sign the divorce agreement. I've said before that you'll regret it if you don't sign the agreement!""You…" Ian's expression turned foul when he heard those words. Then, he slammed the brakes!Sage grabbed her bag. Ian didn't even have to say anything before she got out of the car.In the end, Ian got out of the car as well. With a dark expression on his face, he disregarded her shouts as he stuffed her into the driver's seat. Then, he fastened the seat belt around her."Go str

There was a distant look in Ian's eyes.He even frowned a little.Ivy was stunned when she saw that reaction.She began to feel a little awkward.Still, Ivy didn't reveal her emotions on her face. She straightened herself as she apologized gently."Ian, no matter what, I'm the one at fault for what happened today. I'm willing to take any punishment or reprimand."With the explanations so far, Ivy's actions seemed excusable.Ian didn't probe further. He said in a cold voice, "We can't afford any mistakes in this matter. Get someone to look into Benjamin. If he wasn't framed, cancel the investment plans."Ivy hastily said, "Don't worry, I've already asked someone to look into it. If there really is something off with him, you don't even have to say the word. I won't dare to partner with him."Ian's expression relaxed a little. He rubbed his temples for a bit. "If there's nothing else, you can leave now."Ivy could see that Ian was experiencing discomfort. She asked gingerly, "I

Wanda looked at Sage in confusion. "Mrs. Holcomb, aren't you helping Mr. Holcomb upstairs to rest? He might catch a cold if he sleeps on the couch in this weather.""He's not a sickly man. He won't catch a cold so easily."Sage raised the blanket she was holding. "Also, I got a blanket for him, didn't I? Just put it on him."She felt that this should be enough to express her gratitude.Wanda took the blanket. She was a little hesitant. "Mrs. Holcomb, isn't this the blanket you placed on the lounge chair to step on?"Sage liked to go around barefoot at home. She also liked to jump and stretch on the lounge chair for no reason. So, she tossed a blanket on the chair to prevent it from getting dirty."It's okay. It's not dirty," Sage said. "I don't have any extra blankets other than this one."Wanda glanced at the various pretty and clean blankets on the bed and in the chair. She looked like she wanted to say something."Those are my favorites. I can't let Ian use them!" Sage prote

"Even though Sage is quite annoying about it, you haven't divorced her yet. Isn't it a little inappropriate?" Calvin asked.Ian was irritated. "If you have something to talk to me about, speak right now. If not, get lost."Just then, the secretary came in with the coffee. So, Calvin pleasingly handed it to Ian. "Ian, have some coffee. Don't let your throat go dry."There was indeed some discomfort in Ian's throat. So, Ian accepted the mug."Heh. Ian, I'm sure you know why I'm here."After the secretary had gone out, Calvin began to plead his case. "My dad is very serious about the gulf project. If you turn it down, I'll lose my freedom for the next few months. No, I'll lose it for the whole year!"He'll drag me to the company and force me to take lessons!"Ian said, "Great. Then I won't have to listen to you yapping anymore.""Ian, you can't do this." Calvin sobbed, "Remember when you and Shane got into a fight at school back then? Who rushed forward to help you with abandon?"

Tiana was standing in front of the camera. Behind her, her husband had his head lowered as he looked at the documents in his hands.It wasn't quite a group photo, but Tiana was smiling happily.Sage couldn't bring herself to disrupt Tiana's sweet holiday. After thinking about it, Sage sent a message to Priscilla."Mrs. Xenith, do you have time this afternoon? Would you like to go for a full-body spa day?"I'm not trying to rush you about the matter with Mimosa. I just heard that there's a newly opened beauty salon which is quite decent. I want to invite you to try it out with me."Sage felt that it would be too sudden to tell Priscilla straight away, but she would feel bad if she didn't say it. So, she wanted to see how Priscilla felt about Benjamin before deciding on her next step.After a while, Priscilla replied, "Sure."Sage sighed in relief. After settling on a time with Priscilla, she sent her the address of the beauty salon.Just then, Wanda served lunch."Let's eat tog

When Sage heard Calvin's words, she didn't get angry and embarrassed like she used to.Instead, she asked him earnestly, "You're close to Ian, right? Can you persuade him?"Calvin said arrogantly, "Of course, I'm close to Ian. But I will never persuade him to fall for you!""I mean, help me persuade him to sign the divorce agreement.""I will never—Huh?"Calvin thought that Sage would keep begging him, but what did she just say?"Divorce agreement? Are you saying that Ian wants to divorce you?""No, I want to divorce him." As Sage corrected Calvin, she stuffed the container into Calvin's hands.Then, as she took out the divorce agreement from her bag, she said, "No matter what tactics you use, as long as you can get him to sign this, I'll be very grateful to you.""You… I…" Calvin was so shocked that he could barely think.He wished that someone could tell him what was going on.Why was Sage the one who wanted to get a divorce now?Why would she carry the divorce agreement

To make sure that her uncle and aunt wouldn't be able to protest, Sage would have to become so powerful that she had the final say in things.So, she had to work on her career as soon as possible."When you said that I care about you, you were referring to this, right?"Sage pointed at the container. "I have indeed come here to deliver this to you, but that's because Grandma wants me to make sure that you finish the soup."Ian thought that it was the special concoction from before. He felt a headache coming on as he said, "Take it away. I don't have time to fool around with you."Sage said, "That won't do. You must drink it."When she opened the container, a strong herbal smell wafted out of it."These are body-strengthening herbs Grandma got from a famous doctor." Sage emphasized the word "body-strengthening." Then, she said, "I'll watch you finish it, and I'll also record a video for Grandma."When Ian heard Sage's tone, he thought of something. His expression and gaze darken

Priscilla chuckled. "You know about Ben being blackmailed, right?"Sage was startled. "So, you knew about it, Mrs. Xenith?""Just call me Priscilla." Priscilla had a mocking look on her face. "I don't think the title of Mrs. Xenith suits me anymore."Priscilla said that she had only learned of Benjamin's terrible deeds after receiving the news last night."What do you plan to do, then, Priscilla?"Sage knew that in their more than 20 years of marriage, they were joined by familial ties, children, and benefits. It wouldn't be easy for them to file for divorce.This was also why many women chose to silently endure it even after they found out that their husbands were cheating.It was especially so for people with a high status and reputation like Priscilla. She would be even more reluctant to show her bad sides to the public.Priscilla drank some tea. She didn't intend to hide her decisions. "I refuse to tolerate any infidelity. Ben has to pay the price for this incident."Even

Sage smiled and said, "The company has been at a standstill for the past few years. If it weren't for the fame of the Holcomb family, it'd probably be even worse off than it is right now."Ever since her uncle, Owen Joyner, took over the company, he grew overly ambitious. He had also switched out some veterans and replaced them with his confidants.So, Maven Corporation was doing worse every year.Fortunately, Donald still held some prestige, so many people would give him some credit. That was why the company didn't plummet.However, Donald wasn't in great health, and his energy levels were failing as well. Even though he often reprimanded Owen, the effects were miniscule.Last year, after Sage got married to Ian, Owen signed some partnerships by making use of the fact that their family was in-laws with the Holcomb family. It was only then that business started looking up."We can't depend on the Holcomb family forever. This isn't a long-term solution."Sage continued, "Even tho
