Jace stroked her head with a bright smile. "Okay."

After paying the bill, Jace and Sage came out of the clothing store. Sage bought more clothes and gave several sets of clothes to the bodyguard. Then, she told them to refrain from any unwanted attention.

Sage's bodyguard, Alan, asked, "Miss, what are we doing here again? Are we really here to act? I'm not good at acting. What if I fail at it?"

"Get changed! What's with all the nonsense!"

Sage still remembered Alan's nonsense babble on the phone. She wanted to beat him up, but she held back.

She told the bodyguards to find a place to park the car and wait for them in it tonight. If things went well, they could leave first thing in the morning.

"So you're not leaving tonight?" Alan poked his head out of the window and asked, "Where will you and Mister Jace sleep? Do you need to set up a tent? I can help!"

Sage wanted to slap him. Before Sage could act, Adam reached out his big hand from behind and gave Alan a hard slap on the ba

    Their request startled Old Madam Luz slightly. She said, "You can, but our place isn't that great…""It's okay. We're not that fussy," Sage said. Then, she turned back to Jace and silently asked for his opinion with anticipating eyes.Jace did not want to leave the place either. He wanted Sage to stay comfortably at first, but after hearing her request, he only nodded and patted her head.After that, he said to Old Madam Luz, "Please. Sorry for the trouble. We'll pay for the room."Old Madam Luz waved her hand and said it was fine. "Why don't you go ahead and eat? We'll just look around and clean the room," said Sage.Old Madam Luz agreed and went back to the living room for dinner.

    On that snowy day, Primrose drove and searched for Sawyer and Sage. By the time she found them, the father and daughter were almost frozen because of their snowball fight.Her mother was so angry and kept cursing at her father while helping her to shake off the snow from her body. She greeted Sawyer with a stream of expletives in dozens of languages and scolded him until he was scared. Anyway, no one in their family seemed quite normal. Sage thought and sighed at the memory of her childhood.Old Madam Luz came over shortly with a red quilt and two pillows. Sage was surprised to see the nice bedding."Old Madam Luz, is this… a wedding quilt?"Old Madam Luz smiled and said, "Yes. This is the only brand-new quilt in the house. It was intended for my daughter's wedding, but then… The wedding didn't happen, so the quilt was left unused. I used a lot of good cotton and satin to make this. It's warm." Sage hurriedly said, "We'll make the bed.""Don't worry about it. I'll be done soon

    Sage's heart pounded at Jace's question. She panicked a little when her eyes met Jace's deep and alluring eyes. It felt like she was going to drown in his seduction."You… Get a grip." Sage muttered weakly, "We're still in someone else's house."Jace's gaze flickered. He suddenly inched closer and rasped, "Are you saying it would be okay if we were somewhere else?"Sage fell silent. How did Jace come to that conclusion? She was confused for a moment and tried to remember what she had just said that led Jace to that conclusion. Before she could recover, Jace leaned in and started kissing her."Mmm."Jace was taking advantage of her while she was in a daze!Sage blushed and tried to avoid his kiss, but he tipped her chin and continued kissing her. He used his height to his advantage and kissed her from above, taking her breath away.The swift gradation of intensity invaded her and made her breathing heavy."No…" She whispered, "Not in someone else's house… We shouldn't be…"Jace

    "The more you try to explain, the more you sound like you're trying to cover up the truth," Jace said, smiling.Sage went silent in shame. "Go to bed."She climbed into bed with her clothes and lay down. She covered herself and moved her pillow further to keep a distance from Jace. At last, she rested her hands on her navel, lay upright, and closed her eyes. Jace smiled at the way she tried to pretend nothing had just happened. He knew if he continued, she would explode, so he stopped teasing her."I'll turn off the lights, okay?" he asked softly.Sage answered with a soft hum.Jace went over and turned off the lights. The world seemed to have fallen silent as soon as the room fell into darkness.The cold moonlight came in through the gaps in the curtains that were not tightly closed. Sage could not help but gulp at the sound of Jace taking off his jacket. Somehow, she felt a little nervous.A rustling sound came as Jace lifted the corner of the quilt and climbed into the be

    Old Madam Luz came out of the house before Jace could answer. She explained to Sage, "Jace heard that our roof was leaking, so he went out without saying a word. He flew up the wall so fast that he scared me. It's dangerous up there. Jace, you should hurry and come down. There's no need to repair this broken house.""I was so scared that I pissed myself…" Old Sir Luz came out of the toilet shaking. His face was still pale.Old Madam Luz laughed at him. "Just look at you. Sage is going to laugh at you."Old Sir Luz refuted, "When I was young, I was quite nimble too. I could easily climb to the roof without an issue. Now that I'm old, I'm afraid of heights."Old Madam Luz twitched her mouth. She would not comment further and save his dignity in front of Jace and Sage.Sage looked up at Jace with a faint smile. "Do you need me to come up and help?"She had always wanted to go up a roof."You shouldn't." Jace saw through her mind and said with a smile, "I'm just changing a few roof

    Sage nodded. A sorrowful emotion rose in her heart as she looked at the photo of the young and energetic girl with a lovely smile.Blake was around the same age, but she sacrificed herself to save others in a mudslide. She lost her life so young.Meanwhile, Sage borrowed inspiration from her name and survived.Sage put the frame back in its place and made up her mind."Jace..." She called out to him. Before she could say anything, Jace patted her as if he understood her already."I know." Jace said, "We're already here, so we shouldn't leave with regret. Bastian's father left behind so many wonderful things. We can't just take them for granted, right?""I've always felt something spiritual about the antiques passed down through the years. It feels like destiny."Sage nodded with teary eyes. Somehow, Jace always knew her thoughts and understood her well.Jace hugged Sage and pressed a kiss on top of her head. He patted her back and said warmly, "Let's eat?""Yeah." Sage wiped a

However, she was stunned to see Sage's actions in the kitchen.Sage was not just good at cooking. She was probably as good as a chef.They bought some pork from the market earlier. Jace chopped them nicely and handed the plate of pork to Sage. Sage put it in a pot and poured in the other ingredients and spices like soy sauce, salt, sugar, and more. She was braising the meat and making a traditional dish passed down in her family—braised meat. On the other stove, she was cooking some braised pork balls. It was all fancy and good

    Jace was so happy to eat Sage's home-cooked food. It was thanks to the old couple that he could enjoy all the flavors of her cooking.Sage's phone rang in the middle of the middle meal. She left to answer the call from Sawyer."Hey, Dad… We're eating."As soon as the call connected, Sawyer asked eagerly, "Well, how is it? Did you find anything good?""Yes, but they are ours, not yours.""You kids. Why are you keeping them away from your father? Are we still a family?" Sage laughed and said, "This is just a rule in this business. You'll own whatever good things you pick up. Even if we're father and daughter, we have to account for them accordingly. You're the one who taught me these.""You little thing. I've loved you for nothing." Sawyer grunted softly and said, "Your mom is asking when you're coming back. Should we send a car to pick you up?""No need. We're leaving in the evening."Upon hearing that, Sawyer said, "I see. It seems like you've found a lot of good things. Othe

    Jace made Sage stay up all night. Sage was so sleepy that her eyes were closing."Sleep. I'll wake you up later."Jace leaned down and kissed her forehead. As he closed his eyes, he remembered something and sat up sharply."By the way, we have to wear white shirts for tomorrow's photo session. We haven't prepared the shirt…"Jace rolled over and jumped off the bed right after saying that. Sage could not stop him in time, so she turned on the lamp helplessly. She leaned over the bed and waited for Jace in silence.Shortly after, Jace came back with two shirts. His eyes were shining. "Dear, you've prepared for us?""Yeah." Sage nodded weakly. "I've got them ready. I've had Zamora iron them for me."Jace could finally put his mind at ease. "What about the documents and identifications…"Sage pulled open the drawer of the bedside table and took out the papers and documents she had prepared ahead. "It's all here."Sage looked at Jace. "Everything is ready. You've checked three time

    Sage spread out the notebook and looked at the blurred handwriting. She slowly read it out loud, "Step one, conquer her with sweet talking. Use sweeter and flirtatious words that would make people blush. Forget about modesty and shame in bed. It's best to whisper them into her ears…"Sage read the notes with a straight face, making Jace so embarrassed that he could hardly keep his feet on the ground.Jace strode forward with a stiff face and tried to snatch the notebook away. Sage was quick to dodge and continued reading with her head down."Step two, be aggressive at your offense. Focus and remember this, being rough yet gentle. You can use props such as blindfolds, ties, handcuffs, and so on…"Sage's face turned red while reading it. As the images popped into her mind, she had to stop reading.Jace was about to go crazy. He buried his face in his hands, unable to look up at Sage."Where did you learn all these?" Sage threw the notebook at Jace. "Rough yet gentle? Are you seriou

    "Is that so?" A trace of interest flashed in Jace's eyes.Sage did not understand, so she asked, "What does a small forward do?"Jace explained, "The small forwards are typically the tallest and most athletic of all players. They are responsible for scoring points and defending. The main goal of strong shooters is to score and create opportunities for teammates. In other cases, they would operate as off-ball specialists. They would wait for teammates to pass the ball, catch the ball, and shoot to score."Seeing Sage's confused look, Jace added, "James and Durant, for example, are playing as small forwards.""Oh!" Sage immediately understood after hearing the name of these famous basketball stars. Her eyes lit up. "Isn't that amazing?"Jace saw the sparkle in her eyes and found her really adorable.

Sage knew he would get back at her.She rolled over and lay on top of Jace. She played with his chest and said in a muffled voice, "I have a new nickname for you."Jace responded, "Hm?"Sage looked up at him. "Vengeance."Jace was stunned and soon broke into a peal of laughter. Sage leaned on him and felt the rise and fall of his breathing. As his chest resonated with his laughter, Sage followed along with his laughter. Both of them were laughing like fools.
