“What are you worried about, then?” Linda asked knowingly. “I’m assuming you still haven’t changed your mind about divorcing Ian?”

Sage didn’t answer her question. Instead, she apologized. “I’m sorry, Grandma. I didn’t realize Uncle Owen and Aunt Susan would go and bother you last time. I must’ve caused you a lot of distress, didn’t I?”

Linda let out a soft sigh when she heard that. “I wasn’t bothered by their visit. However, I wished what they said was true–that you wouldn’t divorce Ian.”

Sage fell silent because that was something she couldn’t do.

Sage used to complain to Linda quite frequently, which caused her a great deal of trouble. Sage apologized again. “This has nothing to do with Ian, Grandma. I insisted that he sign it first. I heard you even scolded him. But the truth is, you should have scolded me instead.”

Linda chuckled. “Oh, Sage, just look at you. You’re still standing up for Ian. Be honest with me, did you decide to have Ian sign the divorce agreement early because of what happened with Ivy at the party last time?” 1
