A Farewell After Being Reborn

Chapter 211 lan had told her that his company would be having a team-building event in Greenfield on Saturday. Sage didn't think it was a coincidence that Tiana and her colleagues had decided to chere.

Sage dragged Tiana aside and asked, “Con! Fess up. Did you plan this ahead of twith lan?" Tiana looked at her, puzzled. "What are you on about?" "Don't play dumb with me." Sage glared at Tiana. "When did he get to you?" After all, she had just met Tiana at the hospital the day before yesterday, and she hadn't mentioned anything about the team-building event.

Yet, all of a sudden, Tiana had decided to chere, and she didn't even tell her where they were going. She probably didn't want to arouse her suspicion.

Tiana smiled sheepishly when she noticed that Sage had figured it all out. "He didn't actually get to me. My colleagues and I genuinely planned to go on a road trip. Ian just mentioned that his company's team-building event would be held here. He invited us to join them, so I didn't stand on ceremony with him." Sage rolled her eyes at Tiana. “I didn't take you as the kind who'd betray your best friend for a good deal'." Tiana responded, "This isn't just any deal! Greenfield isn't cheap, you know? It's a 5-star- rated natural hot spring that's rich in minerals and can be used for recuperation and rehabilitation. It's practically made for you! Honest to God, I'm just looking out for you." "Sure, I believe you," Sage drawled.

"Of course! As you should." Tiana then pushed Sage into the resort. "Besides, lan isn't sferocious beast. He used to be your beloved husband! Sage felt like punching someone in the face. "Tiana... I've already told you that's all in the What's the meaning of all this? past.

"I'm sure you don't have to cut off all contact with him even if you're getting a divorce, right? “Tiana held onto her hand. "Besides, you guys are, technically, still married. You'll still have to see him at heven if you don't see him here." Even though that was true, Sage'couldn't shake the feeling that something was wrong.

"I guess it's my fault. I let Calvin talkinto agreeing to this," Tiana added.

lage Sage was surprised to learn that Calvin was in on this too. "How'd Calvin manage to talk you into this?" she asked.

Tiana explained that Calvin had brought up the incident at the bar the other night. He mentioned how lan had gone out of his way to help them and had injured his waist in the process. Even though lan didn't deserve any credit for his actions, he should at least be given credit for his efforts.

Tiana continued, “He also said that lan felt bad about leaving you behind at Holcomb Corporation's party last time, so he wanted to take you out and cheer you up." Sage smiled wryly as she was reminded of how lan had made it a point to explain himself to her regarding the incident at the party last time. She figured that it was probably Calvin's doing as well.

Calvin sure had lan's back. When lan hated her, he stood up for him and gave her the boot. When lan was reluctant to let her go, he cup with ideas to help him win her back.

"Forget about lan. Since we're already here, we might as well enjoy ourselves!" That made sense. Sage pinched Tiana and warned her, "Don't you dare let this happen again, or I'll give you a piece of my mind." Tiana raised her hand and promised, "Don't worry, I won't let lan get toagain. Unless he invitesand Wilson on a world tour that is! Sage was rendered speechless. The girls had been conversing for so long that Tiana's colleagues had already gone to the lobby to check-in.

"I didn't know we were staying here for the night." Sage looked at the room card in Tiana's hand. "I didn't bring anything since you didn't tellahead of time. I don't think I'll be able to stay over." "No worries. A certain someone took care of it for you," Tiana quipped.

Then, she handed Sage a room card. "This is your room. Your belongings are already inside." everything," Sage brooded.

"What would've happened if I hadn't agreed to come?" she asked.

Tiana responded, "Then, we'd just have to send your belongings back. Easy peasy." Sage was at a loss for words.

The rooms here were all unique. It was mostly styled after the ancient Aztec civilization. Even the corridor floors were made of wooden strips. Sage's room wasn't on the sfloor as Tiana's.

Sage found herself in a spacious room with a large bed when she opened the door. There were roses thoughtfully placed on the neatly made bed, and quite a few rose petals were scattered around. The various matching decorative items made the room look oddly romantic.

Her travel-size suitcase was beside the cabinet. Sage opened it and found her swimsuit, pajamas, other clothes skincare, and makeup products. This was undoubtedly Wanda's handiwork. Sage realized that everyone, except herself, knew about her plans for the day. Sage changed into her swimsuit and looked at herself in the mirror. She felt a little self-conscious as it was showing too much cleavage.

She had bought this swimsuit intending to wear it to the hot springs with lan. After lan outright rejected her, she hid it away and never wore it again. She had no idea that she would look so... seductive and sexy.

Just then, there was a knock on the door. Sage assumed it was Tiana, so door and asked m she opened the door, "Tiana, do you think this swimsuit-" She stopped herself short because she noticed that the person standing before her wasn't Tiana, but the tall and handslan! He was dressed casually that day, sporting a white polo shirt and black trousers. It made him look less serious than usual and more relaxed and laid back.

Shouldn't he be soaking in the hot springs or enjoying the finer things in life with his employees at this hour? Why was he here? lan's dark eyes were also locked onto Sage. The snugness of her swimsuit hugged her curves and made her waist look incredibly slender. The black fabric accentuated her fair and slender limbs. Sage was like a human siren, captivating and soul-stirring.

Involuntarily, his Adam's apple bobbed, and he felt parched.

"What are you looking at?" Sage snapped, realizing that she was practically half-naked in front of lan. She covered her chest and tried to close the door, but he beat her to it. He stepped into the room and closed the door behind him.

"What do you think you're doing?" Sage demanded, backing away warily.

lan's gaze was still glued to her waist. His voice was hoarse as he asked, "Are you planning to X
