A Farewell After Being Reborn novel Chapter 273

Ian didn't tell her what it was right away. Instead, he said, "Don't take my father's words to heart. He's never pleased with anyone. it's not just you."

Sage chuckled. "Is that so? I think he's quite pleased with Ivy."

He remained stoic. "Uncle Ron used to be the steward of Holcomb Estate. My father trusts him, so he's got a soft spot for Ivy."

"That's none of my business." she sneered. "After all, I won't be his daughter-in-law anymore starting tomorrow. What exactly were you going to say?"

Ian stopped beating around the bush and brought up the issue in Colville. Sage's attention was instantly piqued.

Ian explained that he stopped by the police station to gather some information before he went to the hospital the day before yesterday.

"Terry looked into it, and it turns out that those two guys were just regular street racers who used to zoom around town with their crew.

"That day, they took a shortcut through the pedestrian street for a race. I've given all relevant information to the local authorities who will interrogate them and look into it. They will notify me if there are any updates."

Sage was a little skeptical. Hadn't she already turned down his offer to help the other day? "So, are you looking into this for me, or are you attempting to clear Ivy's name?"

"Sage, what does this have to do with Ivy? I'm looking into this because you're eager to find out the truth."

Ian grimaced. "I let all your nonsense slide in the past. Why did you say that in front of Dad? How on earth did you get the impression that I would marry Ivy?"

Sage could only blame herself for being stupid in her previous life. She couldn't see through all these mind games. Sage shook Ian's hand off and said, "I didn't ask Delilah to do anything. She went off on her own to stir up trouble for me."

Ian pursed his lips. "I'll look into that then."

Sage calmed down a little. "Ian, I know you're looking into the incident at Colville for me and patiently explaining all this to me because you don't want to get a divorce. But ask yourself this—how much longer do you think our marriage would last if I didn't mention divorce?"

He responded lowly, "I've never thought of getting a divorce with you."

"That's true. Of course, you wouldn't bring it up yourself," she said sarcastically. "You would just push me to my limit with your cold, distant demeanor until I couldn't take it anymore. Then, I'd either pick a fight with you or just suggest ending our marriage by myself."
