"He deserves to be left hanging. How could he leave his injured wife and accompany someone else?" The doctor dressed her wounds and bandaged her palm with gauze. "Be sure not to get it wet and apply the ointment on time. Otherwise, it'll scar.”

"Thanks, doctor.” Her phone rang again when she was paying the bill. This time, lan had initiated a video call. Sage declined it and blocked his number.

In the past, she would never have had the heart to block lan. Sage would have found the thought unbearable. But now, she did it without a second thought. It seemed hard, but in reality, it only took her a couple of seconds to do it.

Sage walked out of the clinic and hailed a cab back to Solaris Estate. She didn't want lan to bother Tiana, so she sent her a message while she was on her way home.

"My shoulder's acting up, and I didn't bring my medications. Enjoy the hot springs with Wilson, Tiana. I'll be heading back first."

lan called her once again after she sent the message. Annoyed, she turned off her phone. There was less traffic at night, so the drive was faster than it had been during the day. Sage made it back to Solaris Estate in about an hour and a half.
