Chapter 222
His dark gaze made her uncomfortable. Sage forced herself to calm down and said, Whether you marry her or not has nothing to do with me.”
“Sage-”
“Tiana, over here!” Ian was about to say something, but Sage cut him off and waved to Tiana, who was at the entrance.
Tiana walked over to them and asked, “Mr. Holcomb, are you

Sage told her what Ian had said earlier.
“Ian’s worried that you’ll be upset, so he’s explaining why he didn’t turn Ivy away at lunch,” Tiana said. “I’ve been telling you that he has feelings for you and that he doesn’t want to divorce you. Do you believe me now?”
Sage rolled her eyes at Tiana. “I don’t think so. Even if you’re right, it wouldn’t change my mind about getting a divorce.”
Tiana couldn’t help but speak up, “Sage, you’ve loved Ian for so many years. Why are you backing away now when there’s a light at the end of the tunnel? Ian is many women’s Prince Charming. Won’t you regret it if you go through with the divorce?”
Sage shook her head firmly. “I won’t.”

In her previous life, she had too many regrets because she was obsessed with Ian. Sage didn’t get to spend time with her grandfather, she failed to save Maven Corporation, she didn’t get to pursue a career she loved, and she didn’t get to enjoy life.
Hence, in this life, she wanted to make up for all of her regrets, except for Ian. She wanted to stay as far away from Ian as possible.
“You can pretend all you want, but I’m not buying it,” Tiana responded.
“Suit yourself.” Sage didn’t want to dwell on this topic anymore. “Why did Wilson call you?
Has he arrived?”
“He’s on his way. He should be here in about half an hour.”

“Should we wait for him to have dinner together?”
“Nah, he said he already had dinner at the hospital,” Tiana responded. “He’s really disciplined. He doesn’t eat much for dinner.”
“Why don’t you have dinner with me first? I know you’ll be too preoccupied with your husband to pay attention to me when he arrives,” Sage teased.
Tiana didn’t mind her playful jab and readily agreed. “Sure. Let’s have dinner together.”
Hence, Sage and Tiana stuffed themselves with food before Wilson arrived.
“I’m stuffed. Let’s go out for a walk and see if Wilson’s arrived,” Sage suggested once they were full. Then, she realized she and Wilson had never formally met. She felt like it was time to formally introduce herself and chat with him for a bit that day.
Tiana agreed.“Sure.”
The ladies left the restaurant and passed through several corridors and the lobby to arrive outside the resort. It was already dark outside, and the lights had been turned on everywhere in the resort. The warm yellow light illuminated the distinctive building, creating a cozy and.
serene ambiance.
There were several groups of people, as well as couples holding hands.
“I’m going to have a good time with Wilson later as well.“, Tiana then spotted a familiar figure up ahead. “Wilson’s here!”
She paused before continuing, “Hold on, Sage… Isn’t the guy talking to Wilson over there, Ian? Do they know each other?”
