A Farewell After Being Reborn

Ian’s expression softened when he saw who the caller was. He answered it.

“Ian, it’s almost time for the meeting at Bolton Investment. How long will it take to get here?” The car was so silent that Sage heard every word that Ivy said over the phone despite her voice being soft and gentle.

Ian had recently acquired Bolton Investment. Ivy had been appointed as its director.

In Sage’s previous life, Ivy had contributed much to Bolton Investment and had produced excellent results. It had won her the nickname of “Queen of the Workplace”.

At the time, Sage had been indignant. She’d told Ian that she wanted to get a job at Holcomb Corporation to prove her capabilities.

But all she’d received was Ian’s mockery. “You, work at Holcomb Corporation? Do you even know how to survive in the workplace? Ivy put in so much time and effort to gain the board of directors’ approval. Do you think you can do the same with just a few words?

“Ivy may not come from as good a background as you, but she’s hardworking, ambitious, and well-mannered. She’s the complete opposite of you—all you know how to do is boss people around. You can’t do anything else!”

Sage absent-mindedly recalled the events of her previous life.

“Alright, that’s it for now.” Ian hung up.

Sage was pulled out of her reverie. The Ian from her previous life overlapped with the Ian who sat before her now. Suddenly, she felt like she couldn’t breathe. “Could you pull over here, Mr. Zane? I wanna get out.”

“It’s not easy to hail a cab here, Mrs. Holcomb. How about I drop you off at home after taking Mr. Holcomb to the company?”

“No, that’s not necessary. Just let me off here.” Sage didn’t want to spend another second with Ian.

Terry didn’t stop the car. He looked at Ian in the rearview mirror and waited for his command. Ian’s blood boiled when he saw how Sage looked like she couldn’t stand to be in his presence. “Stop the car so she can get out!”
