A Farewell After Being Reborn novel Chapter 160

Michael lifted his glass. Sage had toasted to him and was ready to down the contents of her glass when someone suddenly snatched it away from her. When she turned around, she found Ian staring at her.

He was dressed in the same black suit from lunch. Standing up straight and exuding elegance, he attracted much attention from the guests in the bar.

Sage frowned. "Why are you here?"

His expression was unreadable. "I can't find my pajamas. I need your help at home."

She looked puzzled. Although she was tipsy, she was not delirious. She knew he had shown up at the bar because he was angry that she had hung up on him.

"I am not obliged to do anything for you." She reached out for her glass. "Now give me back my wine glass!"

He stared at her with furrowed brows. "You've had too much to drink. You shouldn't drink anymore."

Most people at the bar had met Ian before. The last time, Ian had insisted on dragging Sage away. This time, they weren't about to simply watch as he harassed Sage.

"Sir, Ms. Joyner might be your wife, but you have no right to stop her from drinking."

"Yeah. You're pretty self-centered, don't you think?"

Hearing that, Ian calmly turned around to face those who spoke up. He had an imposing air. That, coupled with his expressionless face, exerted pressure on the people around him. The few who protested suddenly shivered under his gaze.

Bravely, Michael said, "Mr. Holcomb, Ms. Joyner isn't drunk. We'll send her home when she wants to leave. You can't force her to leave."

He sensed her aversion, so he held his tongue, which was rare. Silence enveloped the car. With the AC running, Sage felt sleepy. Before she knew it, she had drifted to sleep.

When she woke up, it was daytime. Sitting up groggily in the bed, she scanned her surroundings and realized that she was back in her bedroom.

Puzzled, she recalled that Ian had placed her in his car after they left the bar last night. Did he carry her up the stairs and into her room?

She regretted drinking so much at the bar. Although she had slept like a log, she was still exhausted. As she was gathering her thoughts, her phone started ringing. She looked at the caller ID and picked up.

"Sage Joyner, have you seen that clip? You're famous now!"
