"Sure thing." Tiana nodded in agreement.

Sage and Tiana then soaked in several different hot spring pools and took numerous selfies. Before they knew it, night had fallen.

In the evening, Tiana stepped out to answer a call from Wilson while Sage went into the restaurant first. Dinner was held in the resort's luxurious dining hall.

Even though it was also in the form of a buffet, the food was much more lavish than the snacks and barbecue they had in the hot spring area earlier. There was an assortment of fresh seafood available. Everyone was starving after a long day of fun, so their eyes lit up when they saw the delicious food. Some found using the utensils troublesome and ate the lobsters with their hands instead. Sage felt hungry after watching everyone inhale their food.

Perhaps the harsh hunger she experienced in the psychiatric hospital in her previous life intensified her love for food.

Most of the time, she ate alone when she was at home. Even when lan was around, the way he ate made it seem like he was posing rather than having a meal, so she didn't feel rushed at all.

But watching everyone roll up their sleeves and dive into their food made her appetite grow. Sage picked out a lot of food and started eating with gusto.

"Why are you stuffing your face? No one's going to steal your food.” Sage was enjoying her meal when lan appeared out of nowhere. He had changed into his usual shirt, with the sleeves rolled up and a few buttons undone to reveal his well-defined chest.

"Did you zone out? Swallow the food in your mouth first.” lan noticed her puffed-out cheeks and couldn't help but feel tempted to brush a stray strand of hair from her forehead aside.

Sage hastily backed away and looked at him coldly. "How I eat is none of your business." Her voice was muffled because of the food in her mouth, softening her usual distant demeanor.

lan casually took the seat across from her. "That's Tiana's spot,” Sage reminded him.

lan looked at her and said, "There was an emergency at the branch office this afternoon. I've been handling it via video call."

Was he explaining himself to her? Sage responded with a nonchalant "oh" and continued eating.

“Ivy's a part of the company and has worked hard for the company. As her superior, I can't just dismiss her for no reason,” he added.

"Why are you telling me all this?" Sage looked up.

He looked at her bare face and said calmly, "Calvin called and said you were upset about what happened at lunch.”

"Nope. That didn't happen.” Sage denied. "I've told you before that your relationship with her does not concern me. I wouldn't care even if we got divorced and you married her right away."

Sage had already said this several times before. lan suppressed his emotions and asked, "When did I ever say I was going to divorce you and marry her?"

Sage was slightly stunned when she heard that. Did that mean he wasn't going to marry Ivy? So lan hadn't fallen in love with Ivy yet because she hadn't done anything stupid in this life?

Sage thought she was pathetic. Her eight years of devotion were just to catalyze someone else's love story. She responded, "The other day at Ivy's place, you didn't deny it when I asked you if you were planning to divorce me and marry her.”

His dark eyes met Sage's. "Do you think that was the right moment to ask me a question like that?"

Sage had thrown fruits at Ivy for no apparent reason. Plus, she looked like she wanted to strangle her to death. He had been taken aback by her wild behavior. There was no way he would have entertained such an intrusive question.
