Chapter 21
Ian had even gotten the idea that Sage was demanding a divorce because she was throwing a tantrum over what had happened that day.Even if it was unnecessary, she still couldn't help asking, "Since you knew that was the fifth anniversary of our first meeting, you must've known how important it was to me. Why did you still leave with Ivy?"Ian looked calm. "To me, it was no different from any other day."Of course. Since he didn't love her, what did any sort of anniversary matter? All of this was nothing but her single-sided expectations.Sage muttered self-deprecatingly, "I wonder where I found the courage to think I could move you one day."Ian didn't hear her properly. When he turned to look at her, her expression had already gone back to normal. "I'm not throwing a tantrum or kicking up a fuss. I'm serious about wanting to divorce."She was still going on about the divorce! Ian's expression darkened. "Do you think marriage is a game? Do you think you can get married and divorc

Sage tended to go shopping in the past, but she had never bought this many items.Did she suffer from some sort of shock or trauma?Sage smiled as she responded with a question of her own. "Do I not look fine to you?"Tiana nodded immediately. "Yes, you look a little less than fine!"Now rendered speechless, Sage could only pat Tiana on the shoulder. "Don't worry. I'm fine. I know what I'm doing."By the time the women reached the men's apparel section, Sage's arms were already loaded with shopping bags.Tiana started browsing the display of ties on the racks. "Sage, do you want to pick out a gift for Ian as well?"Sage rejected her immediately. "No way. He's not worthy of anything."Tiana fell silent at that response. Sage was definitely not fine at all."How could you stain the tuxedo? When I loaned it to you, I made it very clear that you mustn't get any dirt or grime on it!"At that moment, Sage and Tiana heard a loud voice berating someone else from the luxury tuxedo sto

Terry found himself regretting his decision.Ian had worked overtime till the wee hours of the morning. He proceeded to spend the entire day wearing nothing but a poker face. It was clear that he was in a bad mood.Would Terry be making things worse for Ian by bringing up Sage's shopping spree at this time?"Get your ass over here right now if you want to talk to me about something!" Ian grumbled impatiently.Terry had no choice but to walk over to Ian. There, he tapped on the messaging app cautiously and displayed the horde of messages.Ian shot a glance at the screen, soon noticing the automated messages sent by various mall-based stores. There were purchases that exceeded hundreds of thousands of dollars, but there were also purchases showcasing only triple digits. All of these messages were sent from jewelry and apparel stores which were frequented by ladies.At that moment, a new message popped up on the screen with a loud ding."Thank you for shopping at Gentlemen's Styl

Ian's voice came drifting into Sage's ear when she was in the midst of stomping on the gas pedal. She raised her head immediately, only to find out that Ian was already standing next to her car.Yes, she might be embarrassed because of what happened, but she wasn't so immature to turn down his helping hand at a time like this.Sage pouted as she undid her seatbelt and got out of the driving seat.Ian got into the driving seat and spun the steering wheel around casually. Then, he threw the gear into reverse and slammed his foot onto the gas pedal. Just like that, he was able to back the tire out of the pit effortlessly.Soon, he got out of the driving seat. "You can continue practicing now."Sage pouted once again as she got back into the seat. The moment she buckled her seatbelt, she was surprised to see Ian getting into the front passenger seat."What are you doing here?" she demanded with a frown.Ian shot Sage a glance. Instead of answering her question, he asked, "Why did yo

It sounded as though a drunkard had just crashed into the wall after losing their balance.That thought weirded Sage out. Wanda and Ian were the only ones staying in Solaris Estate. None of them would ever drink.The next thing she knew, her room door was flung open from the outside with a loud click.Ian actually stumbled into the room afterward. He staggered about like he was about to keel over at any given moment. His cheeks were unnaturally flushed, with sweat beading on his forehead. Even the corners of his eyes were unusually red.Sage's instincts screamed at her that something was wrong. She closed her laptop with the intention of kicking Ian out of her room."Did you drink alcohol?" she asked as she opened the door. "Wan—mmph!"Before Sage could call out Wanda's name, she felt intense pain prickling from her lips. It turned out that Ian had just captured her lips with his own."You—"Shocked, Sage tried to push Ian away, but he responded by kissing her passionately.Ia

"I don't care about the beginning and the end of my life. Life goes on for me as usual. I'll forever cherish all three meals every day, and I'll also remember to be kind throughout the seasons of life. The best moment will come to me on the best day with the nicest weather where someone finally joins me on my walkway of life."There was a photo of a fancy spread decked out on the table below the post. Next to it was a selfie of Ivy's side profile.The photos and the tagline made it seem like Ivy was just posting about her daily life in an artistic way. But those who were observant enough would notice a small section of a man's arm being revealed in a corner of Ivy's selfie.It was evident that the man was wearing a dress shirt. The watch he wore might not be eye-catching, but it came from a luxury brand.Sage was very familiar with the watch. In fact, it was one of the watches Ian often wore.It turned out that Ian had been staying with Ivy this whole time.Then again, it wasn't

Sage shot Michael a smile. "I've just registered for a kickboxing class."Delight fleeted across Michael's expression. "What a coincidence! I'm a trainer who specializes in kickboxing!"It really was a coincidence.Sage thought the next time she'd meet Michael would be at a business meeting where they'd negotiate about the collaboration. She didn't expect to see him so soon."I guess I'll be seeing more of you in the future," Sage said smilingly. "Have fun working. I'll be leaving now.""Wait, miss!" Michael called out."What is it?" Sage asked.Michael offered shyly, "I don't know how to repay you for the kindness you've shown me back then. Why don't I treat you to a cup of joe?"Sage just smiled while shaking her head. "Perhaps next time. I don't want to take up your time since you're working at the moment.""It's fine. Actually, I'm about to get off work," Michael said hurriedly.He had a youthful face, to begin with. The sight of him looking so anxious made him seem like

It turned out that Delilah had sent Sage a barrage of text messages. There were photos and video clips as well as audio recordings in those messages.Sage decided to look at the photos first. Delilah had snapped a photo of the apartment's exterior where Ivy stayed. Next came a photo of Ivy's front door.Since the video clip spanned for a few minutes, Sage decided to listen to the audio recordings next."Sage, I've already taught I-bitch a lesson on your behalf! I can't just sit back and watch you suffer from more grievances!"The moment the recording ended, Sage saw Michael approaching the table with the drinks in hand."Miss, here's your rose latte.""Thank you." Sage got up to her feet after accepting the latte. "Something just came up. Sorry, but I have to leave now."Michael was sensible enough to hold his tongue when he noticed Sage's frosty expression. He waved at her politely instead."I'll see you at the sports complex, then.""Alright."Once Sage exited the coffee sh

Sage trailed behind Ian, looking as composed as ever.Soon, Ian sank into the couch in his study. As he tugged his tie off, he said, "I wonder how you'll be able to satisfy me with this solution of yours."Sage handed Ian the two documents."I have two copies of the divorce agreement. One of them states that I'll divorce you without getting any of your assets in return. The other one states that you'll have to pay me 100 million dollars in alimony. "I've already signed both copies of the agreement. Choose whichever copy that has the conditions you want and sign it."Ian raised his head immediately. "100 million dollars?"Businessmen were all money-minded, as expected. Ian's first reaction was to mentally complain about the absurd amount of money he had to pay."Yup," Sage replied. "You promised me ten million dollars back then, but I don't think that's enough for me."Come to think of it, you're the one who wronged me in this marriage. Besides, you're the one who was more eage

Ian was not romantically interested in Sage, but she had an inkling that he was interested in her body.After he had injured her lips that night, she had to suffer for three long days before the injury finally healed.Sage didn't want to argue with Ian. Instead, she asked, "Have you decided on which agreement you'll be signing?""It's difficult for me to make up my mind at this time."Ian grabbed both copies of the divorce agreement as he continued casually, "That's why I've decided to let your grandfather review the conditions of both copies properly. Perhaps he might be able to provide me with a better suggestion.""You don't have to make your choice anymore!" Sage reached out to stop Ian. "I'll just get a clean divorce without any additional payment from you!"Ian looked down at her. "I'm the one who wronged you in this marriage. If we were to take this to court, I'd have to pay you more than 100 million dollars, you know. I don't think your grandfather will want you to lose o
