Chapter 239
The driver opened the car door for lan, who paused as he was stepping in. After giving it some thought, lan turned around andentered the house.
He found Sage and Donald staring at a tablet by the coffee table and discussing the many attractions in Colville. She wore asweet smile, one lan had not seen for a while.
"Grandpa," lan called out to Donald.Donald turned around. "lan, aren't you heading back?"
"Yes, I'm about to leave, but | need to apologize to you for something," confessed lan. "Sage injured her hand due to mynegligence.”
That was when Donald noticed Sage keeping her other hand hidden in her dress pocket. "What's wrong? Where are you hurt?Let me take a look!"
Sage shot lan an irritated look and displayed her bandaged palm. She reassured Donald, "I accidentally hurt my hand bypressing it against some rocks. It's almost healed now."
Donald still felt sorry for her. "You can't take pain. You cry at the slightest extraction. They must have disinfected your handbefore bandaging. How did you endure the pain?”
Sage was indeed a fussy and spoiled character in the past. She'd cry and wail over every single minor ailment, only calmingdown after Donald and the maids pacified her and fed her medicine.
The scene reminded lan of the time Linda forced him to visit the sick Sage at the Joyner residence. He vividly recalled Donaldpraising Sage for being brave and coaxing her to take the medicine.
She spat out the medicine after a taste and complained that it was too bitter. The maids had to bring her candies and honey tomake her take the medicine.
However, this time around, Sage did not frown or respond in any way when the doctor disinfected her wound, applied themedicine, and bandaged it.novelbin
Although lan disliked Sage's previously fussy demeanor, he felt disturbed by her uncharacteristic calmness this time."Grandpa, it's all my fault for failing to protect her,” lan apologized again.“What happened yesterday?" Donald pressed on.
“It's not a big deal.” Sage didn't want Donald to worry about her. She turned to lan and urged, "Since you've delivered your giftsand conveyed your message, it's time for you to leave."
Instead of leaving immediately, he calmly replied, “Let me know your date of return beforehand. I'll send my driver to pick youup.”
Sage's patience was wearing thin. "We'll talk about that later. | have more to discuss with Grandpa. Just go about your day. Wedon't have time to talk to you."
After being told to leave a few times, lan did not shamelessly hang around. He left the main hall after bidding farewell to Donald.
"Sage, what happened between you and lan? And how did you get hurt? And why did he apologize to me?" Donald was plaguedby questions.
