A Farewell After Being Reborn

Ian’s expression hardened on hearing her words. “I dare you to!”

However, Sage couldn’t comprehend his words at all. Hugging the pillow, she started sobbing. “I forgot… I can’t even use his money. He’s so stingy… he wouldn’t even give me a million dollars…”

Lan couldn’t be bothered to talk to Sage anymore. He retrieved a towel from the bathroom and wiped her face roughly. He then sat her up, picked up the half glass of water from the bedside table, and placed it near her mouth.

“Drink up,” he ordered.

Sage was much more docile after her previous outbursts. She lowered her head and took a sip. However, she started coughing and spat out the water as soon as she swallowed, wetting Ian’s clothes.

“Sage Joyner!” he snapped. “Are you doing this on purpose?”

Tears instantly welled up in her eyes after being scolded by him. “I don’t want to drink water. I want hot chocolate…” she sobbed. “I waited in line for over an hour to get it. Why did you throw it away? Give me back my hot chocolate!”

lan, who was usually calm and collected, was beginning to lose patience with Sage.

“You’re not going to give it back to me, huh? Fine, then you can pay me back with your body!” Sage rose to her feet and reached out to tug on his clothes.

He grabbed her hand with a hardened expression. “Look here. Who am I?”

Sage blinked and looked at him intently before flashing him a smile. “Woah… you’re handsome! Do you have a girlfriend? If not, can I become your girlfriend?”

“Did you forget that you were married?” he said through gritted teeth.

“Shh… I’ll let you in on a secret,” she whispered into his ear like a mischievous fox. “Don’t let my husband’s looks fool you. The thing is… he can’t get it up! I’m going to divorce him soon.”

Then, she held his face and continued, “So you can be my boyfriend!”

“Sage fucking Joyner!” Ian was furious. “Are you drunk, or are you serious? If it’s the latter, I wouldn’t mind proving you wrong right now!”

He then yanked her over and was about to bite her. However, the sudden movement made it look like she was about to throw up. Hence, he hurriedly lifted her head up.

“I feel awful…” Although Sage did not throw up, she collapsed onto his abdomen. “Sleep with

me…” Belongs to (N)ôvel/Drama.Org.

Ian shook the woman in his arms, but she had already drifted off to sleep. She even pinched his abs dissatisfiedly. “It’s too hard… it hurts…”

“Sage Joyner… you had better not be pretending to be drunk!” he said through gritted teeth.

Sage woke up thirsty. She reached out for her water with her eyes closed, but her hand came into contact with something warm and firm. Instinctively, she began feeling it up.

“What’s your problem this early in the morning?”

Sage sat up abruptly, startled by the husky voice that rang in her ears. She then noticed Ian sleeping next to her. He was lying on his side, facing her. He was topless, exposing his lean body.

As Sage realized she had touched his chest, images from last night suddenly flooded her mind. She remembered seeing Ian, but she assumed that she was dreaming.

Hence, she complained that he was being mean to her. Then, she gleefully held up her hand to show how much she had drunk. She cried, hugged him, called him handsome, and asked him to be her boyfriend….

“Hello? Earth to Sage.” Jan opened his eyes and frowned when she didn’t answer him.

Sage suddenly came to her senses. She found the whole thing funny. He left with Ivy in his arms, but instead of staying with her, he came home and slept in her bed.
