Sage felt somewhat moved by Shane's declaration. Even after she said all that, Shane still wasn't willing to give up.Shane was someone who valued emotions deeply. The death of his mother already caused him a lot of pain. She doesn't want Shane to fall out with his family because of her. If Shane knew that Simon had visited her, the two brothers would definitely end up arguing.Sage said, "Shane, your brother did come to see me, but he didn't force me to do anything. Everything I'm telling you today is my own decision."You know how I used to pursue Ian. I never cared about what others said or thought. If it wasn't my own will, no one could force me to do anything."Shane naturally understood what Sage was implying. He stood up and said, "I'll send a driver to pick you up. I still have some things to take care of, so I can't take you back today."After speaking, Shane turned to leave. Sage knew what he wanted to do and exclaimed, "Shane, don't go looking for your brother! My decis

Sage instinctively looked up when she heard this name being called out.Outside the private room, a man who seemed to be the manager was politely showing Ian the way in. Ian was dressed in a custom-made black suit, paired with a simple white shirt underneath. He looked sophisticated and remarkably handsome.Perhaps he had sensed Sage's gaze, as Ian glanced over at her with his dark eyes.Their eyes met, and Sage couldn't help but think about the night she fought against him. She quickly looked away.Calvin also saw Ian and called out to him in surprise, "Ian?"Ian turned his gaze to Calvin and calmly asked, "What are you doing here?""Come over and meet Tiana's good friend. It's Priscilla. You might know her," Calvin introduced.Ian then looked at Tiana and Priscilla, and he politely greeted them, "Ms. Ford, Ms. Davis."Tiana reluctantly nodded, while Priscilla politely said, "Mr. Holcomb, long time no see.""If Mr. Holcomb doesn't mind, would you like to stay and have a meal

Donald noticed Sage's displeasure and gently tapped her on the head. "Ian had already made plans with me to come play chess today," he explained.Sage smirked. "Does he come to the house often?"Ian had never been this free before.Donald replied, "He comes once or twice a week. I told him that he could just focus on his own stuff and doesn't need to come by all the time. But he said he enjoys playing chess with me, and he doesn't want me to tell you because he thinks it might upset you."He knew she'd get upset, yet he still came here?Sage still wanted to say something, but Ian had already walked inside the house.Upon seeing her, Ian was slightly surprised, but he quickly composed himself and returned to his usual demeanor without initiating any conversation with her."Grandpa," Ian greeted Donald politely."Ian, you're here. Have a seat," Donald said with a friendly smile. "Do you still prefer Darjeeling tea?""Yes, please. Thank you, Grandpa."Ian calmly sat down in the

When Sage saw Shane, she was somewhat surprised. Didn't Marcus say he went back to Cinderpeak County and might not return to Haldon City today?While she was lost in thought, Shane had already walked up to her side. Moreover, he noticed Ian sitting in the back seat.Shane's face showed clear displeasure as he asked, "Mr. Holcomb, why are you everywhere?"Ian's expression was indifferent as he replied, "You should be saying that to yourself.""Mr. Holcomb, there's a saying that late affection is worth as much as a drop of water in a bucket!"Shane spurred on the pain Ian felt even more by saying, "If you truly cared about Sage, how did you end up as her ex-husband?"Ian's typically calm expression turned stormy, his handsome face showing clear signs of anger. His usually serene eyes were now filled with irritation."It's getting late. You should go."Sage didn't want these two to start arguing again. She said bye to Ian, closed the car door, and then told the driver, "Liam, you

Wilson was brought out by the hospital director who loved mountain climbing. He originally didn't want to join them, but a casual remark from the director made him change his mind."Dr. Tate, don't be so gloomy all the time. You should go out and have some fun. If not, which girl is going to like you with that attitude?"The news that Wilson's attempts to pursue Tiana failed had spread throughout the hospital, and naturally, the director had also heard about it.His remark reminded Wilson of Tiana. She used to say that he was too dull and hoped he could find time to go out with her and see the world.While they were in Lathuyria, he accompanied her on several outings. Tiana was very happy and content, even playfully referring to it as their honeymoon trip.Wilson then agreed to the director's proposal.But what Wilson didn’t expect was that just as he climbed to the top of the mountain to take in the beauty of the landscape, he saw Tiana nestled in the arms of a handsome man.Th
