Female Novel
Chapter 248
Shane, perhaps distracted by some fun thoughts, readily agreed to Sage's plan and promised to carry it out smoothly.
After hanging up, Sage laid on the king bed in her hotel room with a lingering fear for what happened earlier that night. She feltthankful that Donald wasn't hurt, otherwise she'd blame herself for it.
After lying around for a bit, she heard a text notification on her phone. Terry had texted her. "Unblock my number."
She could tell from the tone that lan had composed the text. After hanging up on lan the other night, she had blocked his contacton her phone.
To hell with his request! His text irked her. If only he agreed to the divorce, Ivy wouldn't have repeatedly stirred trouble for her.

She snickered. In the past, she was the one in the relationship who showed off their marriage certificate to call dibs on him.Never had she thought that lan would one day do the same thing.
"So what brings you here?" She sounded impatient.
He did not reply. Walking up to her, he ignored her cold shoulder and took her injured left hand. The scabs were healing well, andthe skin over her wound had regenerated. However, it looked a little red and swollen after she forcefully picked up the traffic coneto fend off the motorcyclists earlier.
"Why didn't you tell me about the accident?" he questioned with unreadable emotions. There seemed to be a hint of concern inhis low, frosty tone.
