A Farewell After Being Reborn

Chapter 18

Chapter 18

When Ian got downstairs, Sage was already nowhere in sight.

“Mr. Holcomb, Mrs. Holcomb hailed a cab and left on her own,” the driver said tentatively.

Ian pursed his lips. He had the driver take him back to Solaris Estate. When he arrived, he saw Sage’s shoes strewn haphazardly on the floor. He went upstairs.

Sage’s door was shut. There wasn’t so much as a sound coming from inside. Ian lingered outside for a while but eventually decided against knocking on

the door.

The following morning, Ian went downstairs after finishing his morning workout. Wanda was serving breakfast. He sat by the dining table and glanced upstairs. “Wake her up for breakfast.”

Wanda said politely, “Mrs. Holcomb already left the house, Mr. Holcomb.”

Left? He’d deliberately given her some time to calm down last night, only intending to ask her about what had happened in the morning. Yet she’d already left the house?

“Where has she gone?”

Wanda shook her head. “I’m not sure. She didn’t say anything. She didn’t even have breakfast; it looked like she had something important to do.”

Ian frowned. “Got it. You can get back to work.”

Wanda went to the kitchen. Ian called Terry. “Find out what happened at
