A Farewell After Being Reborn -
Chapter 101
Priscilla could guess why Sage was feeling blue. Hence, she nodded without hesitation. Alright, let’sdrink to our heart’s content!”
The girls sat in a corner, sipping their wine. The banquet hall, which had been bustling with activity justa moment ago, only had a few employees cleaning up now. This made them look lonely.
Priscilla couldn’t help but feel bad for Sage, who was struggling to keep her tears at bay. “If you want tocry, Sage, just let it out. Don’t hold it in.”
Sage, who was clutching the wine bottle to her bosom, shed a few tears as soon as she heard.
Priscilla.
Priscilla found Sage’s demeanor both beautiful and pitiable. How could Ian leave behind his stunningwife and rush to the hospital with another woman in his arms?
“It’s getting late, Sage. Let me drive you home,” she offered after finishing her bottle.
Sage obediently accepted, allowing Priscilla to help her into the car.
“Do you want to crash at my place for the night, Sage? I’ll have someone get you home tomorrow,”Priscilla asked from the driver’s seat.
“Thanks, Priscilla, but that won’t be necessary.” All of a sudden, Sage sat up straight. Even though hereyes were still glassy, she did not appear as sad as she was before.
“Get the company’s PR department ready to reach out to several platforms and influencers. We mightneed them later,” she continued.
Realization dawned on Priscilla after she heard that. The pieces started falling into place, a her eyeswidened. “Sage, you don’t mean… But I’m afraid there will be harmful rumors if word gets out. Wouldn’tthat be bad?”
Sage scoffed. “I don’t mind. All I care about is the moolah.”
Priscilla squeezed her slender shoulder. “Alright, I’ll go along with your plans.”
Meanwhile, Ivy was still out cold, having sustained injuries to her head and arm from the chandelier.Her wounds had been cleaned and stitched up, but the condition of her head would have to beconfirmed after she woke up.
Several other guests also sustained minor injuries and were treated at the same hospital.
Ian sat in the corridor while Terry updated him on the situation. “The hotel said that the chandelier wascleaned and replaced yesterday. However, a staff member messed up, causing
the wires to snap. The hotel promised to come forward and apologize and to bear all responsibility. I’vealso appeased the injured guests and arranged for them to be taken home.”
“Alright.” Ian massaged his temples.
“Mr. Holcomb, you must be tired from dealing with the board. Why don’t you head home and get somerest? I’ll have someone notify you when Ms. Shekdotter regains consciousness.”
All of a sudden, Ian remembered something. “Has Sage gone home?”
Terry hesitated. “I’ve been too caught up with the guests. I did not keep track of Mrs. Holcomb’swhereabouts. Let me call Wanda and replace out.” In no time, he learned that Sage had already returned
home and was fast asleep.
Ian heard their conversation and rolled his eyes.
“Seriously? I can’t believe she didn’t even bother to check in with me and just went home to hit the hayafter what happened tonight.” He snorted: “Get the driver to pick me up. “Mr. Holcomb! Mrs. Holcomb,she…” Terry gasped just as lan was about to leave.
