A Farewell After Being Reborn

Ivy said, “Ms. Davis is not only highly capable but also has good luck. When she faced economic difficulties, someone helped her out. When sales were poor, they came up with ideas to hype her business up, and they even managed to secure investments for her.”

Benjamin immediately knew who she was referring to. In fact, he had come to her today intending to find out more about her.

“Why would Mr. Holcomb’s wife help that wretched woman so much? Did she do it at the behest of Mr. Holcomb?”

Ivy chuckled and said, “I’m not sure if it was Mr. Holcomb’s intention. But you can have someone look into the truth behind the reports from the party that day and the true nature of the relationship between Mr. Holcomb and his wife. You’ll get your answers if you do.”

Although she was very vague with her words, Benjamin was a smart person who understood what she was trying to say–Ian’s relationship with his wife was not good, and he wouldn’t have cooperated with her to help Mimosa. 1

Satisfied with the answer he received Benjamin said, “Ms. Shekdotter, thank you for having coffee with me. When I expand and stabilize my winery, I hope that you will be a partner of

mine.”

Ivy stood up and replied, “I’m also looking forward to that day. But before that happens, I hope you won’t be crushed by your ex–wife.”

Upon hearing this, a glint of coldness flashed in his eyes, but it quickly disappeared.

Priscilla was thrilled, so she decided to have a few extra drinks at lunchtime. Sage and her assistant had to carry her back to the office. After leaving Mimosa, Sage headed to the sports complex since it was still early. NôvelDrama.Org owns this text.

Michael had specifically instructed her a few days ago to focus on the basics so she could excel in self–defense and kickboxing. Since she was originally there to keep fit, she wanted to stick to her training routine.

Just as she arrived at the sports complex, she bumped into Henry. He was sitting in the rest

area.

“Ms. Joyner, what a coincidence,” he said when he saw her. Standing up, he continued, “I’ve been to several gyms around town and I still fancy this sports complex the most.

“The coach just said that someone like me, who has a good foundation level of fitness, is more suitable for practicing kickboxing. Ms. Joyner, you’re considered my senior here. Please take care of me in the future.”

Sage wasn’t surprised at all by this. She smiled faintly and answered, “I don’t think you’ll need me to take care of you. I’ve only trained a few times, and I haven’t even mastered the basics. But I’m open to friendly matches when we have the time.”

“No problem!”

“How have things been between you and Layla these past few days? Has she forgiven you?” she asked casually.

“I guess she has,” Henry replied, his face lit up with an affectionate smile. “She even came with me to the sports complex today. Look! She’s over there!”

Following his gaze, Sage saw Layla. She was wearing a knee–length skirt, with a designer handbag slung over her shoulder. Looking joyful, she was busy taking selfies with her phone.

“Layla, guess who I ran into?” Henry called out to Layla

Her smile instantly faded a little when she saw Sage. “What are you doing here?” she questioned.

“Layla, I asked Ms. Joyner about this sports complex. She said the training here is good, so I wanted to check it out. I didn’t expect to run into her here,” Henry explained proactively.

Layla snorted lightly and ignored Henry. She picked up her phone to take more selfies. It was then that Sage noticed the pair of dazzling diamond earrings that Layla was wearing. The exquisite craftsmanship and style looked very familiar…
