Susan ordered the housekeeper to serve them coffee before settling into a chair."What's wrong, Sage?" Donald asked gently.Sage felt a lump form in her throat when she noticed her grandfather looking at her with the same indulgent and helpless expression he had whenever she got into trouble as a child. "Grandpa…" she choked out. Tears began rolling down her cheeks"Why are you crying, Sage? What happened?" Donald inquired anxiously. Then, he glared at his son. "Owen, did you do something to upset Sage?""That's unfair, Dad. How could you jump to such conclusions?" Susan couldn't help but interject. "This has nothing to do with us. It's your precious granddaughter! She wants a divorce!""Divorce?" Donald was genuinely caught off guard. He almost dropped the glass that was in his hand."Watch out, Grandpa!" Sage dashed forward to grab her grandfather's glass. Then, she placed it on the coffee table and held his hand to help him catch his breath."Stop pretending! If you don't

Tiana burst out into laughter when she learned that Sage hadn't gone through with the divorce. "See? I told you so! Ian wouldn't let you go that easily."Sage rolled her eyes. "Believe it or not, it has nothing to do with Ian. He kept his word and signed the divorce papers. But then, things took a surprising turn."Sage then filled Tiana in on how her aunt stumbled upon the divorce papers."Isn't that too much of a coincidence? Why were your uncle and aunt there when you went to pick up the divorce agreement?" Tiana asked."My uncle needed Ian's help to seal a deal."Even though her story sounded plausible, Tiana couldn't shake the feeling that Ian was somehow involved. "Regardless, the fact that you didn't get divorced only proves my point!""Wow. With such a wild imagination, perhaps you should quit being a nurse and become a writer instead.""Hmm… that's a great idea! I could write a novel titled 'My Clueless Best Friend Who Can't Seem to Get a Divorce'. Isn't that a great id

Henry was an expert at leading people on. Instead of jumping at the opportunity right away, he responded coolly, "Why don't you send me the location, Sage? I'll check it out."Sage smiled. "Sure."After hanging up the phone, she sent over the name of the gym. After all, she had to get to know him better to keep track of his and Layla's progress. It would be even better if she could get him to work for her.Henry replied almost instantly. "Thanks, Sage.""You're welcome. By the way, I would appreciate it if you refrain from calling me by my name since you and Layla haven't made things official yet. You should address me as Ms. Joyner instead.""I understand, Ms. Joyner. Have a nice evening!" …Meanwhile, Ivy sat on the hospital bed with a hardened expression. Her forehead and arms were wrapped in bandages."Whoa, this ward is pretty nice. The young man of the Holcomb family seems to be treating you well," Sandra remarked as she looked around.Ignoring her comments, Ivy asked c

"Mr. Holcomb! Ms. Shekdotter has just fainted! Please come over as soon as possible!" the person on the other end of the line said urgently.Ian's forehead creased when he heard that. "Alright." He then put his phone away and glanced at Sage. Without a word, he changed quickly and walked straight out the door.Sage was close by and heard everything that had been said. Of course, she knew exactly where he was going.Her grandfather had asked her to give their marriage another chance because he could tell Ian cared about her. But why the hell would she want to give another chance to a man who dropped everything for another woman just because of a damn phone call?…Meanwhile, in the hospital, Ivy clutched her bruised elbow and said apologetically, "I'm so sorry to bother you at this hour. I just wanted to stretch my legs a little, but I got dizzy and fell. I only passed out for a few minutes, but the nurse made a big deal out of it."Ian's brows knitted. "There are nurses everywher

"Ian Holcomb, you're the one who's picking a fight with me!" Sage snarled. "If you don't want to give me anything, don't force yourself to! I'm not a recycling bin. I don't need things that have belonged to someone else!""Could you stop being so damn difficult, Sage?" Ian was afraid that she might snap if he mentioned that Ivy was the one who had picked out the earrings. So, he gritted his teeth and said, "The earrings are brand new. It still has the tag on it. Where did you get the idea that these belonged to someone else?""Oh, so just because it has a tag means it's brand new?" Sage sneered. "Ian, if you wanted to make things right, perhaps you should've found out what I liked first! Otherwise, just do what you always do and ignore me altogether!"Ian ran out of patience in the face of her accusations and sarcasm. "Fine! Forget I ever gave you anything then! Who gives a damn about what you want anyway?" He then stormed out of the room.Sage was so furious that she threw the box
