After giving it a bit of thought, Sage declined, saying, “No, thank you. I have a lot of things to do every day and don't have the time to take care of it.”Ian calmly said, "Let Wanda continue staying here. She can take care of it."Sage shook her head. "Liking something doesn't mean you have to own it. Just looking at it is enough for me."Upon hearing this, Ian chose not to persuade her any further.Wanda brought out some tea and served a cup each to Sage and Ian.While stroking the kitten, Sage said to Wanda, "Thank you for taking care of me these past few days. My foot is fine now. Please pack up your things and go back to Solaris Estate with Ian."Wanda quickly responded, "Ms. Joyner, I don't want to go back. There are plenty of housekeepers at Solaris Estate who can manage without me."Didn't you say before that you wanted me to come take care of you? Can I stay here from now on?"Sage had invited Wanda over before and found her to be very nice, meticulous in her work, g
Sage felt that this was an opportunity.After some analysis and screening, she identified the name and address of the other party's studio.Sage and Giselle went over and found that the studio was only a few hundred square feet.Including the founder and designers, there were only three or four people there, busy typing code on their computers.Sage reaching out to them was a pleasant surprise, but they remained somewhat skeptical. They exchanged contact information and agreed to discuss the next steps at a later date.Meanwhile, Mimosa Cellar had set a date for its initial public offering, and current sales were quite stable. Once the company went public, Priscilla's net worth was expected to rise significantly.Because of this, many people wanted to curry favor with Priscilla. When they found out she held shares in Breakthrough Investment, they introduced her to a pay-for-knowledge program.Pay-for-knowledge programs were quite mature at present, with many companies interested
Before Dale could speak, the middle-aged man praised aloud, "Especially those eyebrows and eyes, it's like they were carved from the same mold!"Sage looked at Dale's sharp features and striking eyes.Despite being middle-aged, he showed no signs of aging. His face still carried a sense of vitality, clearly indicating that he must have been very handsome in his youth.Although Sage's own looks weren't bad, thinking they were father and daughter was just too far-fetched.Just as Sage was feeling awkward and about to explain, she saw Abby returning.Perhaps hearing the middle-aged man's words, Abby's smile seemed to falter slightly."Mr. Hall, you're mistaken. That is my daughter," Dale said as he looked at Abby and waved at her.Abby quickened her pace and walked over, wearing a sweet smile on her face as usual. "Dad!"Dale nodded gently and explained, "This is Mr. Hall from Silver Enterprise, the one I mentioned to you before. He was a bit late."Abby greeted warmly, "Hello, M
Sage smiled faintly, not wanting to discuss these matters with Abby. Instead, she expressed her gratitude to Abby for bringing Dale to the ceremony.Because Dale attended the event, many people viewed Breakthrough Investment's capabilities as quite strong. The opening ceremony drew a fair amount of attention because of that.As long as Breakthrough could secure a few more projects, they would eventually make a name for themselves.Abby said sweetly, "We're friends, so of course I'm going to help whenever I can! My dad happened to be free that day, so I invited him along!"As they were talking, Abby's phone rang.After she answered the call, the other person said something that made Abby very happy."That's great. Thank you, doctor. Let it rest for a few more days, and I'll come to pick it up."After hanging up the phone, Abby took the initiative to tell Sage that Thorn was injured.A few days ago, Thorn fell off the roof. It broke its front leg and also lost a tooth. The vet ha
Sage found it strange. Albert looked quite healthy, and golf wasn't a high-intensity sport. How did he get injured?After making some inquiries, Sage found out that the golf cart that Albert was riding in had a problem.While it was moving, it suddenly veered off into an artificial lake used for water storage and viewing.Albert was hit in the head by the impact, and it seemed his leg was also seriously injured.As an established and reputable golf course, such an accident shouldn't have occurred. Indeed, many people at the scene voiced their dissatisfaction and raised concerns about the course's safety.Regarding Albert's injury, Sage couldn't shake the feeling that something was off, though she couldn't put her finger on it.The staff were maintaining order at the site.Meanwhile, seeing that it was getting late, Sage invited Gordon to have dinner together. Given the warm invitation, Gordon did not decline.A few people got onto a golf cart and left the lawn, returning to the
"Since you're in such a hurry to die, why don't you just stab yourself and end it? Why go to the trouble of jumping off a building and causing a scene?" A man's voice rang out. It was filled with contempt."I wanted to stab—" Suddenly, Sage Joyner found that something was wrong with what Ian Holcomb had said. When had she jumped off a building?"You're finally awake, Mrs. Holcomb." The housekeeper, Wanda May, came over with a glass of water and some pills. "Does your head hurt? The doctor said you have minor symptoms of a concussion and prescribed some medication for you. Do you want to take it now?"Sage didn't answer. She found that she was lying on a bed in a spacious bedroom. From the furnishings, it seemed to be the master bedroom at the Holcomb residence.She hadn't seen the inside of this place since being sent to a mental institution two years ago. Could Ian have suddenly brought her home?No, something was wrong.Sage was certain she'd stabbed herself in the heart. Even
"Haven't you had enough of this, Sage? When will you stop causing trouble?" Ian snarled.Sage laughed silently. She was his wife, yet he treated her worse than he did an outsider.But before she could say anything, Ivy said, "Don't be so fierce toward Sage, Ian."She turned to Sage and explained, "Ian didn't drop by just to celebrate my birthday, Sage. It's just that my father invited him over for a meal because he hadn't seen Ian in ages."I didn't expect you to get the wrong idea about this and even get hurt. I feel terrible, which is why I came over to explain the situation to you. Please, don't be mad at Ian anymore. This is all my fault."Ivy's tone was soft and gentle, as was her smile. Her apology also sounded earnest.Sage could still remember how Ivy had also followed Ian home in her previous life. She'd given her the same explanation. But at the time, they'd been in the bedroom.Sage had listened to Ivy's explanation but had been enraged to see them looking so perfect
Sage's grandfather was the one person in this world who loved her the most. But in her previous life, she hadn't even had the chance to see him one last time when he'd passed away.This time, she swore to stay by his side until the end of his days and treat him well. She didn't want to disappoint him anymore.Because of her injuries, Sage didn't dare to visit her grandfather for the time being. She could only suppress her agitation and urgency. She told him she would drop by in a few days.After hanging up, Sage sat on the balcony and thought about the events of her previous life. When she'd been 18, she'd fallen in love with Ian because he'd rescued her like he was her knight in shining armor. From then on, she'd tried everything she could to win his heart, but to no avail.When she'd graduated from college, Ian's grandmother, Linda Johnson, had learned of her feelings for Ian. Linda had pushed for Sage and Ian to marry. From then on, she'd become his wife.Though Ian despised he
