A Farewell After Being Reborn
Chapter 216

“Isn't this Holcomb Corporation's employee group? What are you doing here?" Sage asked as she stared at Tiana.

Tiana took her phone back and continued to scroll through the comments with gusto. “It's not a work group. It's a gossip group that the employees set up separately. Calvin roped me in."

Sage was amused. "Wow. Your networking skills sure are impressive. Not only are you close to Calvin, but you've also wormed your way into Holcomb Corporation, huh?"

Tiana shrugged. "I'm just here for the latest gossip. Don't worry. No one knows we're friends, so everyone here is free to speak their mind.” Sage was at a loss for words.

Meanwhile, Ivy was leafing through documents in one of the resort's rooms when she was interrupted by a series of notifications on her phone.

The wound on her forehead hadn't fully healed yet, so she couldn't risk getting it wet, let alone indulge in the saunas. Hence, she didn't join the others downstairs and instead focused on the project she had found for Henry.

Ivy picked up her phone to see what the commotion was about. Her smile instantly froze after she unlocked her phone and saw the photos of lan and Sage. There were several photos of them hugging each other intimately. In the photos, lan was looking at Sage tenderly. Gripping her phone tightly, she wished she could crush it. Ivy had checked with lan's secretary before coming here to confirm that lan was alone. So why was Sage here? Why were she and lan publicly displaying their affection?

Ivy forced herself to calm down and messaged Delilah. "I asked you to patch things up with Sage. Why haven't you made any progress?"

She couldn't take the initiative to do anything because no one had given her any information about Sage.

Delilah immediately gave lvy a call. "Ms. Shekdotter, Sage is wary of me. She doesn't listen to anything I say, so we can't rush things.” "What are you going to do about it then?" Ivy asked harshly.

Delilah responded, "Don't worry. I took your advice and re-established business relations with the Joyner family. Once everything is settled, I'll visit Mr. Joyner Senior more often. Sage will surely come around then." "Why did she suddenly distance herself from you?" Ivy inquired, her brows knitted.

Delilah answered, “I have no idea. When you posted on social media last time, I suggested we go and teach you a lesson, but she didn't budge at all. I was indignant and went alone, but she turned against me after I sent her the recorded video. Also, I feel like she's become much more intelligent and assertive."

She paused before continuing, “This time, I won't underestimate her anymore. That is why I intend to get to Mr. Joyner Senior."

Ivy had also noticed that. Sage had become much sharper. She wasn't as easily provoked anymore, and she no longer acted impulsively. She also seemed uninterested in lan.

However, Ivy wasn't buying it. There was no way that Sage would have no feelings for lan. She must've just become more manipulative and realized that men always wanted what they couldn't have. That must be the reason why lan had started to see her in a different light.

Based on the current situation, it was clear that it was no longer possible to make lan hate or distance himself from Sage.

Ivy had never been able to figure out what was on lan's mind. Apart from being annoyed, he had never wanted to get a divorce, even though Sage had done a lot of foolish things. If he wanted a divorce, he had plenty of ways to go about it, even if his grandmother was trying to stop him.

Since it was impossible to get through to lan, she might as well start with Sage. After all, it was much easier to get a woman to give up than a man.

Ivy calmed down, and her tone softened. "Keep up the good work, and rest assured, you'll be duly rewarded for your efforts.”

"Will do. Besides, you've never let me down. Oh, by the way, I'l need your help to negotiate the terms with “my father's friend’ to seal the deal with the Joyners," Delilah said.

Ivy nodded. "I understand.”

Then, she made two more phone calls before turning off her laptop and changing into a new set of clothes.

Meanwhile, Calvin arrived at Greenfield Resort. “What's the meaning of this, lan? Why can't I call you? Do I seriously have to go through Mr. Zane to get to you?"

lan was lounging under the sunshade and feeling very calm. He couldn't be bothered to waste his breath on Calvin. "What brings you here?" he asked lazily.

Calvin responded, "I was going to tell you I couldn't make it because I have to have dinner with my old man tonight. Yet, your words got under my skin, so I decided to come over and hash it out with you!"
