Who knew he was capable of hiring a bunch of thugs to take her life when he was still in jail?

"Kane is on his way to Medina City. Wait for him to leave together," Tim instructed as he was afraid there would be more troubles waiting for Sage ahead.

Sage adhered and quickly added, "Tim, we want to go back to Nadeem City first…"

There was a one-second pause. Then Tim sneered lightly, "Go anywhere you like. It's none of my business."

Sage was speechless.

"Try to use your brain. Don't just think about romance just because you're in love. Think about why Dave knows your schedule," Tim said and hung up the phone the minute he finished talking.

Sage was, however, stunned. When Jace realized Sage was not looking good, he rubbed her head and asked softly, "Tim scolded you?"

Sage looked up with a pale face, and the redness in her eyes had not subsided yet. "Tim's right. How did Dave know about my schedule?"

This question was already in Jace's mind. He moved his lips and said certainly, "

Sage furrowed her brows and exhorted as she carefully oversaw the movers.Jace was nervous too. Both of them kept on running up and down. Kane looked tired and sat down in the hallway with his legs crossed. He felt helpless looking at how nervous Sage and Jace were.Back in the past, he never felt they were good for each other, but now he felt they matched very well, especially their love for antique furniture. It was at a level that scared any normal person. While at it, he casually took a photo and sent it to Laura. It was not too long before Laura video-called him, and he answered it right away."How's Sage?" That was the first question Laura asked."She's fine," Kane answered lazil

    Sage's medical team rushed to St Francis Hospital in the afternoon. The hospital welcomed them with great pomp and made it look grander than the mayor's visit.Before the intern doctors went into the operation room, the dean kept reminding them to pay attention. "Dr. S has a big temper. Watch and don't talk. Don't ask what you shouldn't ask, okay?"Everyone nodded obediently in nervousness and anticipation. As Jace listened to the dean's comments about Sage, he could not help but think of the two major surgeries she had performed on him before.She operated on him when he got into a car accident four years ago. She operated on him again a year ago. At that time, he had a blood clot in his head because he was hit in the back of the head with a rod.He was in critical conditions in both situations, and Sage was the one who performed the operation on him and brought him back from the brink of death.Jace sometimes wondered how lucky he was to meet such a nice girl like Sage.

    The little kids Sage ranted about were the best medical doctors who graduated from various medical schools. How would they feel if they heard her?"It can't be helped. Everyone looks up to my dearest Sage, the great Dr. S. Those school kids who can't stop loving you are even talking about introducing nice people to you," Jace said.Sage stayed in his arms and looked at him with a confused look. She stared at him with dewy eyes and asked, "Huh?""I won't give them that chance." Jace lowered his head and kissed her. He pecked the corner of her lips and swore, "You're mine, and I'll fight anyone who tries to take you away from me!"Jace had such a serious and stern face. He looked as if he was going to fight someone. Sage was amused and relieved from the pressure and tension from the earlier surgery.Sage met his beautiful eyes and willingly inched closer to him. Hugging his neck, she pressed her lips firmly to his like an invitation to him. Her initiation was like a spark that s

    Sage held a post-operative Q&A session for the intern doctors in the meeting room. Meanwhile, Jace did not go into the meeting room and waited outside. He could see Sage through the glass panel on the door. Sage was sitting on the stage calmly. She was the youngest in the room, but her maturity and strong aura were the same as the seniors.When she spoke, the intern doctors and even the dean listened to her carefully. The dean was also nodding in agreement from time to time.The way Sage talked reminded Jace of what Faye showed him before. Faye showed him some videos of Sage as an interpreter at an international conference. At that time, she carried the same confidence and spoke with power and charisma.Many people said Jace was too mature for his age before. Jace found Sage the same. She had multiple identities and mastered many skills. She was dazzling and charming to most people, but no one really knew how much effort it was to achieve professional heights like her.Jace only

    Howl's eyes lit up. "When can I start?" Sage said, "Anytime." Howl seemed a little worried and hesitant. "Can I start a couple of days later? If I go to work, I may need to hire a caregiver for my father.""No hurry. You can make your arrangement before starting," Sage said and felt like she was the best employer in the world. She cared so much for her employee.Before leaving, Sage handed a bank card to Howl. "Here's a year's salary in advance. The password is six sixes. If you need anything, feel free to contact me."Howl was stunned and stared at the bank card in his hand in silence. How could he be so lucky?! It was way too astounding!"I… Can I ask a question? Why are you two so kind to me? I'm shocked and somewhat flattered."Howl had always been an ordinary person. He grew up ordinarily surrounded by ordinary people with a simple life like him. He never thought that he would meet someone like Jace and Sage. They helped him again and again."After all, there's no such t

    Sage met Jace's dark gaze and was slightly stunned. She got off his thighs and sat up straight."Are you proposing to me?" Sage asked suddenly.The driver's hand shook a little at Sage's abrupt question.Jace was startled too. He quickly shook his head and waved his hand. He stammered, "No, no. I'm not."Sage frowned at his reply. When he saw her frown, he hurriedly inched closer to her and explained, "How can I be so hasty in proposing? I wanted to pay your family in Salem City a formal visit. I wanted to visit Rosa Garden and gain your family's approval. After that, I'll propose to you. Then, we'll get married. Let's take it one step at a time, shall we?"Sage just kept staring at him without saying anything.Jace noticed her silence and added, "I just want to make sure that I've got all the steps right. I want to make it formal and show you my sincerity. I didn't prepare well last time… I'm going to make it up for you this time."Sage remained silent and glared at him with de

    Sage knew they were all experienced. Their dirty discussion crushed her, who was still a virgin! Jace explained, "I don't know what to give Aunt Primrose. I wanted to give her a set of jewelry, but she said she has plenty of those. Aunt Primrose asked if I had something different and unusual. I asked her what she had in mind, and she said something like an antique adult book. I happened to have a set in my collection, so I gave it to her."Sage's face was still red after listening to his explanation. "Why did you even collect this stuff?""It's a highly collectible antique from the Middle Ages. A great painter made it and drew the figures vividly. It's interesting. "Jace tilted his head and looked at her. "The poses are also quite…"Sage stopped him before he could finish his sentence. She covered his mouth and warned, "Okay, stop there! That's enough!"

    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. 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 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.
