Sage had clearly gone through a lot of suffering and ingested sillegal drugs.

lan suppressed the murderous feeling rising within him. He resisted the urge to harm Benjamin right there and then. The audacity of him to even lay a finger on Sage! "Mr. Holcomb, Benjamin Xenith has disappeared!" Terry reported.

lan hissed, "Send our men after him! We'll capture him no matter what it takes!" Sage, visibly shaken, sought solace in lan's embrace.

"Mr. Holcomb, leave this to me. Please send Mrs. Holcomb to the hospital now," Terry suggested.

Without wasting any time, lan picked up a disoriented Sage and placed her in the car. He rushed her to the nearest hospital.

Fortunately, the doctor's assessment revealed that she suffered no injuries except for the slap mark on her face and srope abrasions on her wrists. However, she very likely ingested skind of hallucinogen, judging from the state of her.

The doctor stated, "It's not advisable to get her stomach pumped. That'll only make her suffer needlessly. Patients who have ingested hallucinogens typically do not suffer any long-term effects, so it's best to allow her to recuperate naturally. Since she appears calm now, it's safe for her to rest at hunder supervision." The hospital was too far from Solaris Estate. Hence, lan booked a room in the hotel next to the hospital for Sage. Staying near the hospital would allow them convenient access in case she felt unwell.

After booking the room, lan brought Sage up to their room and placed her on the bed. He was about to fetch a wet towel to wipe her clean when she grabbed his waist. She moaned, "lany, please don't go..." According to the doctor, hallucinogens would affect the nervous system, leading to confusion of tand space. Hence, he assumed that Sage was suffering just that.

Since she was reluctant to let go of him, he sat beside her on the bed. She immediately wriggled into his arms and pressed her warm cheek against his cool skin.

"lany, you finally visitedafter one year. Have you investigated the case and cleared my name?" Sage mumbled in a low voice. "The people here are hostile. I don't want to stay here any longer. Bringhnow..." lan couldn't understand her rambling, but he felt sorry for her regardless. Kissing her on the forehead, he said, "Just rest. You're fine now." When she felt his kiss on her skin, she opened her eyes. As she stared at lan's handsface, her glazed eyes twinkled in excitement, and tears rolled down her face. "lany, you're finally here to see me! You've looked into the case, right? See, I had nothing to do with it!" Looking sympathetic, he played along, nodding. "Yeah."

Seeing the apologetic look in his eyes, she consoled him, "lany m everything's fine now fine now if you him you discovered the truth. I won't blyou for keepinglocked up here..." As she spoke, she reached out to caress his face. "Since the truth's out, will you finally love me?" The warmth of her fingertips jolted him. Composing himself, he nodded and said lowly, "Yes."

Hearing that, she collapsed in his embrace and cried her heart out "lany, the day I waited for has finally come. I'm so happy. Hug me! Letknow it's not just a dream!"

He hugged her back tightly, his heart aching at the sight of her petite and fragile frcrying in his arms. He couldn't help but whisper in her ear, "Sage, why do you insist on a divorce if you still have feelings for me?" "A divorce?" She lifted her head. Her eyes, nose, and cheeks were red from her crying. It made her appear more attractive and vulnerable.
