"That's not true." Sage spoke truthfully, "If we are really talking about fighting skills, yours are definitely better than mine. I could only win by using some tricks. You have unorthodox fighting skills. Whereas I knew a little of conventional and unorthodox fighting skills. Sometimes I didn't care if the posture was good or ethical when I fought to survive. I just want the best and faster way to apprehend my opponents."

Logan opened his eyes. "Fought to survive?"

"Yes, I fought to survive."

Sage moved a stool over and placed it beside the bed for herself to sit. "Do you really think I'm a young lady who lives glamorously and is spoiled? Honestly speaking, there are many dangers around me. I was kidnapped before too. That explains my reaction when the redhead tried to kidnap me. I'm really scared of it."

"I wanted to fight with you to see how good you are and test your personality. I know I might not be your match. You only used thirty percent of your strength today, and I used s

Who?"Alan scolded, "Who took our job from us?"Both of them widened their eyes and were fairly irritated. They rushed to the hospital angrily and dashed into the ward.

Hey man, how unlucky.""You can pick a fight with anyone, but why did you fight with Miss Sage? She never cared about dignity or morality during a fight. I nearly had the same experience as you when I was young. It's really scary."The two brothers were so noisy that it gave Logan a heada

This was being promoted everywhere.Thus, the lady's request was acceptable."The salesperson checked the purchase history and confirmed it is a new product from the Norah Group. There's nothing wrong with it. However, I noticed the diamond was weird. Before I came here, I used the machine in the department to check. Then I found out…" Howl looked at Sage and paused for a while. "It contained harmful substances that could cause cancer."Sage and Jace's faces looked terrible when they heard that. Instantly, Jace took over the brooch from Sage's hand and threw it back into the jewelry box. His eyes sank."It's impossible." Sage was still calm. "Norah Group has a specialized Testing Department. All of the diamonds were tested during purchasing. Whether it's a finished or semi-finished product, all of them are required to undergo numerous tes

It was not a good habit from his point of view."I know. I will trouble you when it's necessary. I won't force myself to handle everything," Sage replied.Jace furrowed his brows slightly. "You're wrong. Whatever that happened to you, I'm also part of it. You are not troubling me. I don't feel troubled at all."Sage smiled and answered, "Alright."Then she waved her hand and smiled to bid goodbye to Sage and Elder Norah. Nonetheless, her smile disappeared after closing the car's door. She took her tablet and put on her earphones to talk to the people from the Testing Dep

How can this happen? We've invested so much manpower and resources in this project. It's a project worth more than a billion. If we recall everything, we may lose everything. Our hard work for the season would go down the drain. It would be a big loss. Miss Sage, please think twice before acting.""We've issued the press release and made a police report. Isn't it too late to consider the consequences now?"Someone expressed their discontent and complaints but immediately shut up as soon as Sage glared at him."Are you telling me what to do?"The meeting room fell into dead silence as soon as Sage spoke. All eyes turned to her.Sage kept her eyes on the man who had just spoken. He was Jon Jablonsky, the director of the Purchasing Department. "Mister Jablonsky, tell me. How can we keep the loss at

    Primrose frowned at her daughter's carelessness. "How can you fall on a flat surface? Is there something wrong with your brain?"Before Sage could say anything, Primrose said in all seriousness, "It could be a neurological problem.""You should wish me well!"Sage could not help but roll her eyes at her mother. She steadied herself in Jace's arm and said, "Why are you all here?""We came to back you up."Primrose said, "The company has gotten in such big trouble. How dare you hide it from us? Do you think we are dead, or do you think we are old and useless?"Sage was so speechless to hear her mother's nonsense. She was so used to it and did not care.Sage looked up at Jace and asked, "Did you tell them that?"Sage did not mean to blame Jace, but her words made him shake his head nervously. "No.""He didn't tell us and acted as if nothing happened. If we hadn't seen the news, your father and I would still be in the dark."Primrose crossed her arms and looked at Sage with a ste

    Jace looked at the way Sage slept like a baby and smiled. He tentatively reached out to tease her. He dabbed a bit of her drool on her mouth and wiped it on the tip of her nose, making her grunt.Sage rubbed her nose on his chest as if it was ticklish. Then, she clicked her mouth and went back to sleep in a different position.Amused by her reaction, Jace craned his neck and laughed in silence. However, he forgot that his chest would move as he laughed.As Jace's chest rose and fell from his silent laughter, Sage woke up with a start.Sage opened her eyes and stared at him blankly for a few seconds. She touched her face and felt something wet on her face. When she looked down, she finally noticed that Jace's clothes were also wet."I drooled."Sage was still half-awake and sounded very soft. She looked dazed with her messy bed hair, but she did not seem ashamed of her drool. "I had a dream. You made me a nice seafood soup and some fried chicken. It's too tasty…"After saying tha

    Sage's back was facing him. She bent over the coffee table and tried to sneakily taste the cooking wine he opened. She tried to steal a taste of the wine like a playful monkey.As she bent over, the shirt on her moved up a little, revealing her buttock. When he saw the light-colored and patterned fabric underneath, his eyes darkened with desire. Jace went over and patted her perky buttock gently."Whose monkey is this? Are you stealing some wine?"Jace's movement was light and gentle. He did not want to scare her. Otherwise, she might choke on the wine.Sage was caught red-handed, but she continued drinking anyway. She took a sip of wine and said, "Yours."Sage's eyes were no longer as dazed as she was while half awake. Her eyes were clear and glowing beautifully, like a clear pool in the spring staring right at him.Jace seemed to be mesmerized by her. He leaned forward to take her into his arms and kissed her again.Then, he tasted the wine aroma in her breath."Mm, it smel

Ah…"Sage squinted as she saw the terrible dark circles under her eyes. She turned around in anger and bumped Jace's head.Jace was caught off guard and felt dizzy from the impact. He rubbed his head.

    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. 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.
