A Farewell After Being Reborn

Chapter 75

The bodyguards didn’t seem surprised by this. After escorting Sage over to Shane, they left the office.

“Have a seat, Ms. Joyner.” Shane had his legs propped up on his desk while he swiveled a wine glass in hand. He said in a playful tone, “Do you know why I asked you to come here?”

“Not really.” Sage replied calmly. “I also want to apologize for what happened with Priscilla last time. I misunderstood you.”

Shane scoffed. “At least you know to apologize first. Don’t you think lan should also apologize to me for wrecking my bar?”

Sage knew Shane was looking for a bone to pick. She said begrudgingly. “I’m sorry. I didn’t know lan would bring his men over or cause such a big commotion.”

Sage only apologized, not mentioning the fact that Shane had wanted to abduct her prior.

Sure enough, Shane’s mood lightened up. He pointed at a large bottle of XO on the bar’s countertop and shot Sage an amused look. “If you know you’re in the wrong, you should behave accordingly, too.

“Finish that entire bottle of wine, and we can start talking about my mental compensation afterward.” Even someone who had strong alcohol tolerance wouldn’t be able to stay upright after downing such a large bottle of wine, not to mention Sage and her so–so tolerance.
