Chapter 47 

It was a message from Delilah. 

Sage hadn’t contacted Delilah since she went to Ivy’s place. She had blocked Delilah’s messages on WhatsApp as well. 

Now that Delilah had sent her a photo on Telegram, it was probably not good news. Sage immediately deleted the message and blocked her number. 

“Please, you must accept it,” Michael sent another message after the money 

transfer. 

To maintain his dignity, Sage decided to accept the payment. 

Michael then asked, “Are you very busy? I haven’t seen you at the sports complex. 

For the past few days, Sage had been occupied with drafting the investment plan. Thus, she didn’t have the time to attend the lessons she had applied for. She replied, “I’m busy with work matters.” 

Following that, Michael sent her a bunch of encouraging cute gifs. Sage found them amusing, so she saved a few. 

She then checked Michael’s social media feed and found that his life was rich and full of positivity. Apart from part–time work updates, there were posts about music bands, which portrayed him as a cheerful and optimistic young man. 

Sage felt a bit envious. She realized that it had been a long time since she experienced the feelings of youth and enthusiasm. 

As Sage was browsing through the feed, she received a notification which indicated she had been tagged in a WhatsApp group chat. 

It was a group chat created by Delilah and some classmates. Delilah had sent a photo to the group and tagged Sage. 

Sage glanced at the image, which featured an appetizing bowl of pasta on the coffee table and a cup of passion fruit juice.

Though there were no people in the photo, an arm in a blue sleeve draped over the couch was in the frame. Sage couldn’t tell if the photographer intended it, but it was a garment she recognized all too well- the one Ian had worn earlier. 

The background in the photo was also familiar to Sage as it was Ivy’s residence. 

A while later, Sage received a phone call from an unknown number. It was Delilah, who sounded displeased. “Sage, what’s going on? You blocked me on WhatsApp, and now, you’ve blocked my number too?” 

“Did Ian blame you for last time?” Delilah added, “I told you to tell him it was my idea alone. If he didn’t listen, you could have discussed a countermeasure with me. Why are you sulking?” 

Sage didn’t bother responding. She waited for her to continue. 

Sure enough, Delilah said, “The photo I sent you was the one I–bitch posted on her social media feed not long ago with a disgusting caption. I left a nasty 

comment, and she deleted the post! 

“But I saved the photo before it was gone. How is that called taking care of a drunk friend? There’s clearly something going on between them. It’s disgusting!” 

Delilah rambled on without getting a response from Sage. “Why aren’t you saying anything? Are you angry? Should we go to her place again?” 

Sage chuckled and said, “You care a lot more about them than I do. I unfollowed Ivy’s social media long ago. If you really consider me a friend, do the same. Don’t do stupid things in my name again.” 

“What do you mean, Sage?” Delilah was getting angry. “I did it for you! I was standing up for you. Yet instead of thanking me, you’re calling me stupid?” 

Sage calmly replied, “I don’t know if you’re stupid, but don’t take me for a fool.” 

“Fine! Sage, if you can’t win Ian over, don’t come crying to me. I won’t help you anymore!” After that, Delilah hung up in frustration. 

Sage saved the image from the WhatsApp group as she considered it potential evidence for future divorce proceedings. 

After anxiously waiting for a day, Sage finally received news from Shane late at night. 

He said, “Benjamin’s situation is a bit complicated. Let’s meet up and talk”
