A Farewell After Being Reborn

“Whatever. I heard you’re going to attend the banquet hosted by Holcomb Corporation. You can accompany me to a beauty salon to get my hair and makeup done.

“I’ll have to pick out a gown there, too. After that, we can attend the banquet together,” Delilah ordered.

“I’m not obligated to do all those things with you.”

Sage moved to place her belongings on the couch. “If I’m not mistaken, you told me you’d never meet up with me ever again. The door’s that way. You can see yourself out.”

Just as Delilah was about to lash out at Sage, she happened to catch sight of the gown the latter had bought. It elicited a surprised gasp from her.

“Oh, my gosh! That gown came from the latest lineup sold by Gorgine Fits! I’ve always wanted. to own one of those! Sage, you can give me that gown! That way, I don’t have to pick out a gown for myself anymore!”

Delilah reached out to grab the gown to try on it as she spoke.

Sage quickly snatched the gown out of her hands while retorting coldly, “If you want it, you’ll have to buy it with your own money. This is my gown. Why must I give it to you?”

Delilah stared at Sage in puzzlement. “Since when are you this stingy, Sage? In the past, you’d give me the clothes I wanted as long as I got my eye on them!”

There was once a time when Sage cherished her friendship with Delilah. As long as Delilah had her eye on one of her belongings, she’d give it to the former no matter how reluctant she was to part with it.

Now, Sage would rather use the gown as a washcloth than give it to Delilah.

“You know, the ability to feel shame is a wonderful thing. You should learn how to.. ability one of these days.”

After saying that, Sage grabbed her stuff and got ready to head upstairs. But Delilah quickly blocked her while looking pissed off.

“Do you really want to end our friendship, Sage? Don’t you remember what happened in the past? I was the one by your side when no one wanted to be your friend. I was also the one coming up with all sorts of ideas and suggestions just to help you pursue Ian back then.

“You think you can just end our friendship just like this, Sage? What the fuck are you up to, huh?”

Sage couldn’t help but chuckle in amusement after hearing what Delilah had to say.

“Judging from how arrogant you are around me, those who don’t know us might mistake you for a debt collector hounding me for money instead of my former best friend.

“You are indeed my childhood friend, but don’t go around deluding yourself into thinking that you’ve never gotten any benefits out of our friendship. Let’s not talk about the business deals between your family and mine. Instead, let’s use our hangouts as prime examples.

“Whenever we hung out in the past, I was the one footing the bill for everything. Every time you wanted something from me, I’d always give it to you, wouldn’t I?

“I don’t owe you anything, Delilah. You’re well aware of your Intentions–be it helping me out or setting me up–when it comes to matters concerning lan.

“I can’t be bothered to settle the score with you regarding what happened in the past. But now, I want you to leave my home immediately. Also, I don’t want to see your face ever again!”

Sage bore an icy expression, the chill in her tone evident as she spoke. She didn’t sound like she was joking at all.

Delilah’s cheeks flushed out of anger. “Fine. So this is how you think of me, Sage Joyner! I can’t believe I wasted my time and energy on a piece of shit like you!”

Then, she stormed out of the estate with her handbag in tow.

Sage huffed in response. She had learned that she couldn’t be nice to anyone unconditionally at any given time, be it her friend or her lover. Otherwise, they would definitely take her kindness and sacrifices for granted.

If she were to decrease her contributions or even stop contributing to a relationship entirely, those ingrates would blame her instead.

After stowing the gold bars into the safe and hanging her gown, Sage proceeded to pack the incense’s essential oil meant for Linda into a beautiful gift bag. She wanted to give it to Linda. as a present on her birthday. This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org: ©.

Sage spent the afternoon chatting with Priscilla on WhatsApp. When she realized it was almost time for her to get ready, she headed over to the walk–in closet to change into her gown. There, she left her phone next to the mirror.

Just as Sage was in the midst of stripping her clothes, she saw a video call coming in. One glance was enough to tell her that it came from Ian.

Seriously, he kept bothering her at the worst time. Sage was about to change into her gown, after all. How could she answer the video call in her state of undress?

Hence, she declined the call without thinking much about it.

Sage continued stripping her clothes afterward. After that, she strode away to grab her gown and placed it before her figure in front of the mirror.

But when she glanced at her phone screen, which was currently lit up, her expression shifted Into one of horror.
