A Farewell After Being Reborn

Chapter 46 

Ian was unwilling to let her go yet. “Beg me properly one more time.” 

Sage was both frustrated and confused. She was wondering why she hadn’t noticed so many annoying traits in Ian before. What sort of weird hobby was this? 

Just then, Sage’s phone stopped ringing. 

Ian was about to pull her even closer. He said, “Perfect. Now, you don’t have to- 

At the same time, Sage was ready to use violence when the partition suddenly lowered. 

Terry kept his eyes down as he informed in a business–like tone, “Mr. Holcomb, Ms. Shekdotter says her calls aren’t getting through to you. She needs to speak with you.” 

Ian furrowed his brows slightly and took Terry’s phone. 

Annoyed, Sage pushed Ian away and sat back in her seat. She grabbed her own 

phone. It turned out that she had missed Ivy’s phone call as well. 

Ivy seemed to be well aware of Ian’s whereabouts, considering that she had looked for Sage directly.

“What’s the matter?” Ian loosened his collar and asked in a husky voice. 

“What’s with your voice? Are you drunk?” 

Ignoring her concern, Ian asked again, “What did you want to talk about?” 

Ivy said, “Can you come over now? Let’s talk in person. Or I can come to you. It’s quite urgent, and I can’t explain it over the phone.” 

Ian glanced at Sage, who had now resumed a cold and distant demeanor. “I’ll

After he hung up, Sage said impatiently, “Pull over. I’ll take a taxi home.” 

Ian, however, grabbed her hand. His breath still smelled like alcohol as he uttered, “Let the driver send you home. Terry and I will take a taxi.”

Sage frowned and shook off his hand. Ian’s gaze darkened, but eventually, he ordered the driver to pull over. 

Once Ian and Terry got out of the car, Sage sent a message to Shane. She informed him about seeing Benjamin at the restaurant and requested him to investigate Benjamin’s private life thoroughly. 

Considering he was the manager of Mimosa, any personal issues could affect the upcoming initial public offering. 

Shane was rather cooperative on matters related to the investment, and he 

replied with an affirmative emoji. 

Back at Solaris Estate, Sage vigorously wiped her lips with a towel. 

Ian, the lunatic, had gone crazy after drinking too much! 

In her previous life, he would simply come home and doze off after getting drunk. He had even been completely unaware of her sneaking up next to him, where she secretly listened to his heartbeat. 

Was it that Ian’s level of intoxication was different this time, or had he already slept with Ivy last time to get it out of his system? 

Sage felt nauseous at the thought of him going to Ivy’s place after eating the corn chowder the other day and possibly kissing her with the same mouth that had touched Ivy’s. She wiped her lips even more vigorously. 

After rinsing her mouth several times and taking a bath, Sage began to feel a bit better. She lay on the bed and was about to sleep when she noticed an unread message on WhatsApp and a notification from Venmo. 

Opening it, she found she had received five thousand dollars. On WhatsApp, someone with an unfamiliar profile picture had sent her a message. “Miss, I got my salary. I’ve paid back five thousand dollars first.” 

Sage realized that the sender was Michael, whom she had added to her contacts previously but didn’t get a chance to talk to. 

She replied, “No rush. Pay me back when you have the money.” 

“Accept it. It puts my mind at ease,” Michael insisted.

Just as Sage wanted to refuse again, she was interrupted by another notification from Telegram.
