Chapter 226


    “Don’t you watch where you’re going?” Ian grumbled. Sage had almost gotten hit by a car.


    Startled, she came to her senses. What was she doing? Why did she suddenly get upset with Ian?


    Why did she sound so jealous?


    It seemed like Tiana had brainwashed her into believing Ian was being good to her and that she didn’t


    want a divorc


    anymore. Sage was terrified when she noticed a glimmer of hope rising in her heart yet again.


    Ignoring Ian, she took a step back and said calmly, “I don’t want to go to the mall. I’d just like to go to a


    patisserie.”


    Ian had expected Sage to be enraged and tell him that it had nothing to do with him and that he


    didn’t need to worry about it. However, she didn’t lose her temper at all. She seemed calm and rational


    instead.


    Naturally, he preferred her current reaction–no fuss and no drama. Just straightforwardmunication.


    She didn’t put up an invisible wall that made it impossible for him tomunicate with her.


    The couple got back into the car, and Ian casually ced the bag of medication on the dashboard. He


    then used the GPS to find a renowned patisserie.


    When they arrived, they noticed a queue snaking out of the store. The patisserie must have been


    popr.


    Sage was about to unbuckle her seatbelt and get out of the car when Ian noticed what she was


    wearing. “Stay in the car. I’ll go and get the pastries,” he said.


    Sage stopped in her tracks when she heard that. Ian then got out of the car. Sage still felt


    ufortable, so she opened the medicine bag and took out an antacid. She felt parched after taking


    them and grabbed a bottle of mineral water from the car’s mini–fridge.


    Then, she identally spilled some water on the seat and herself while chugging it. Sage hastily wiped


    it with a tissue and identally knocked the medication Ian bought for Ivy onto the ground.


    To keep things clean and organized, the prescription medications were packed in small transparent


    bagsbeled with their names and dosages. Sage picked them up and took a look to ensure the water


    hadn’t damaged the medication before stuffing them all back into the bag.

    Sage was on her phone when Ian returned. He sat back in the driver’s seat and noticed the water


    stains on the console and the water bottle next to it. “Have you taken the antacids?”


    Sage nodded absentmindedly. The couple didn’t force a conversation on the way back to the resort.


    After getting out of the car, Ian offered to send Sage back to her room first, to which she agreed.


    Along the way, the couple met several Hob Corporation employees, who greeted them warmly.


    One of them was bold enough to say, “Mr. and Mrs. Hob, you guys are literally a match made in


    heaven!”


    Sage maintained a polite smile. She had already figured out why Ian had gone to such great lengths to


    get her toe to Greenfield Resort.


    He probably felt bad for leaving her behind at hispany’s partyst time, which had caused her to


    be criticized, so he wanted to let everyone know that they were fine.


    Well, he seemed to have achieved his goal. However, she never cared about being criticized. When


    they arrived outside of her room, she told Ian, “You can go now.”


    Ian didn’t respond. Instead, he called out to a young housekeeper in front of them and handed him the


    bag of medications. “Could you please deliver this to Ms. Shekdotter:in room 3209?”


    The man nodded and epted the bag.

    Meanwhile, Sage took the opportunity to open the door to her room. As soon as she walked in, she


    was surprised to see not only her belongings inside but also Ian’s.


    What was he up to now? Only her belongings were in the room when she arrived earlier in the day.


    Sage turned around when she heard Ian’s footsteps. 1
