A Farewell After Being Reborn

Two young men pushed a cart over to them. The cart was adorned with bright red roses, and next to them were various liquors and bartending tools. Each of them held a bouquet in their hands.

When they reached Sage and Tiana, they got down on one knee and gave them a bouquet each. "Your majesties, I hope you'll have a delightful evening here tonight.”

Sage found their cheesy words amusing. "Thanks," she said as she accepted the flowers.

Tiana also accepted the bouquet. She smiled as she said, "These guys are professional bartenders who have participated in competitions. They are here to whip up cocktails for us!"

"Ohh, and here I thought you had arranged for some hunks to keep us company,” Sage joked softly.

"I figured it wouldn't be the best idea since we're both married and all." Tiana suggested, "Why don't I get some hunks to drink with you now?" Sage pretended to ponder for a moment. “Forget it. Though you could find me a bunch once I'm divorced."

"Would a bunch be enough? I don't think so."

"Allow us to whip up two glasses of frozen rosé since we have two lovely ladies here. It's guaranteed to be both beautiful and tasty!" one of the bartenders said amidst their laughter.

The bartenders put on a fancy bartending show before mixing the drinks. The bottles and glasses danced in their hands and even lit up with a pale blue flame.

Dressed in black shirts and trousers, their long, slim legs and slightly exposed chests, combined with their skillful moves, made them incredibly attractive. Many were drawn in and enjoyed their performance.

No wonder Tiana said this was a highlight of the bar. It was indeed unique and pleasing to the eye. The girls had already finished their first drinks when the two glasses of frozen rosé were delivered to them. "Beer is just to start the night. The cocktails are our main attraction. Cheers!" Tiana raised her glass gracefully and clinked glasses with Sage.

"Cheers!" Sage was in a good mood as there were bright lights, alcohol, and the company of her good friend.

Calvin was hanging out with his friends in a booth on the second floor. There were about ten people who were all having a great time drinking and chatting.

"Mr. Luther, check out that bartender. He's so hot! Why don't you invite them up to give us a show?" a woman coquettishly suggested as she leaned over the railing.

Calvin took a look downstairs. "What's so interesting about that? It's just some flashy tricks to impress you girls!"

"What's wrong with that? He's still hot. Mr. Luther, are you afraid that your looks can't compare to his? Is that why you don't want to invite him up to perform for us?" the woman teased, deliberately provoking him. Calvin was furious when he heard that. “There's no way I'd lose to those two bartenders!"

He had always paid great attention to his appearance but was never interested in entertainment. Otherwise, he would have outshined half of the pretty boys in the industry.

He immediately called the bartender over and pointed downstairs. "Get those two—"

Calvin paused midsentence when he noticed a familiar figure standing in front of the bartender, holding a glass of rosé wine.

He leaned against the railing to get a closer look. The lights in the bar were flickering, and the bartender was tossing around something that had been set alight, making it difficult for Calvin to see. Hence, he pulled out his phone and zoomed in.

It was Sage! What was she doing here? Sage was also in the bar when she was filmed playing the drums last time. Did lan know she was here?

"Mr. Luther, are you going to invite those bartenders or those beauties?" someone joked when they noticed Calvin checking out the girls on his phone.

"Get out of my way! Can't you see I'm busy right now?" After he confirmed that the woman was Sage, Calvin snapped a photo of her and found a quieter spot to call lan. Exclusive content © by Nô(v)el/Dr/ama.Org.

“lan, please don't tell me you're still at the office at this hour," he said as soon as lan picked up.

"What do you want?" lan asked apathetically.
