"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

There were limitations, but that did not stop Sage from showing off her best skills.Sage wanted to make some of her favorite dishes. Fortunately, the kitchen was complete with all the pots and pans and a good stove.With Jace's help, they prepared the ingredients as quickly as possible. Sage turned on the stove and started cooking. The kitchen was in full swing.Bailey was still worried at first. She thought not many young people could cook these days. 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

It was nightfall.The bodyguards who had been wandering around Luz Town all day finally showed up to load Jace and Sage's organized furniture onto the truck. Sage was helping Bastian and Bailey to pack their suitcases in their house.

Jace's cell phone rang suddenly. It was Yoel who called."Answer it for me." Jace was driving and could not answer his phone, so he asked Sage to pick it up.Sage said, "I'll turn on the speakerphone."Yoel's jolly voice came as soon as the call connected. "Hey, man. How's your trip going?"Jace said, "We're heading back.""So soon? Are you not going to spend two more days out there? It's a rare opportunity for you to spend time together with Sage." Sage held up the cell phone and stayed silent. She looked out the window and pretended she did not exist.Jace coughed softly. "Yeah." Yoel sounded like he was doing some lifting at the gym. He was panting a little after the workout. "How'd it go?"Jace said faintly, "Fine.""Oh? Did it work this time? Congratulations! You've been abstinent for years. I'm glad you've finally experienced love. Do you feel like it's a whole new world?" Yoel's remarks were getting more and more absurd. They were clearly not on the same page.Sage

Suddenly the door opened, and she found herself in the air. Jace carried her out of the car.She was in shock, and her arms quickly reached out to hold Jace's neck. She was feeling helpless at Jace's stubbornness. "Why are you so overbearing?""I panic when you drive too fast." Jace was worried Sage would be angry when he explained it to her. He looked at her seriously as he tried to talk her out of being the driver.Sage struggled and replied, "I can try to drive slower."Jace put on a disbelief look on his face and said, "Forg

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.

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.

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

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.
