A Relentless Pursuit for Love Chapter 1158
The two men on the floor shuddered at Sage's question. They had been working for Norah Group for many years. How could they not know Sage's temper?Sage had always been clear in rewards and punishments. She was protective over her own people, but she would never tolerate anyone who dared to betray her.Sage looked at the two familiar faces on the ground and felt disappointed. Their battered faces were almost unrecognizable.She sneered. "I really didn't expect this. Well, well. Our directors from the Purchasing Department and Marketing Department turned out to be the ones behind this. Both of you have colluded to steal from the company. I still remember the show you put on in the meeting earlier. Great acting. Maybe I should send you two to Norah Entertainment and become actors instead."Jon Jablonsky, director of the Purchasing Department, looked ashen. Meanwhile, Jericho Mabbery, director of the Marketing Department, looked indifferent. He seemed like he did not care about what

"No need. I can find out what I want to know with ease. Why do I have to dig the information out of you? You don't mind it, but I find it disgusting."Sage stood up with a straight face. "I came to see you today because of the time we've worked together. I came to see you off. You'll always pay the price for your mistakes. This is the last lesson I'll teach you. From now on, take care."Sage turned her head and walked away without any hesitation. The man behind her screamed for mercy, but she remained unmoved.…After they got into the car, Hunter sat down next to Sage and handed her a stack of documents."This is all the details of the purchase and transaction. It's impressive. They got so many fake diamonds at once."Sage had gone through the documents electronically while on the way there. She casually flipped through the hard copy a few times. Sage became angrier as she read and threw the documents back at Hunter."Give it to the lawyers. Make sure they get the heaviest sent

Jace froze. He was stunned by what Sage had just called him. Jace dared not to move at all. He was still in his apron and stood still while still holding an oily spatula in his hand. It was supposed to be a romantic moment, but all they could smell was the food and smoke.All Jace could feel was his excitement. He was overjoyed and almost melted in happiness. God knew how long he had waited for her to call him 'Hubby' so intimately.Jace was about to try to hug her. Then, there was a sizzle in the pan. He was shocked and took a big step backward with Sage in his arms.Sage craned her head and looked in the pot. Her eyes lit up to see what was inside. "Are you making some fried pork chop?""Yeah. I had a slab of meat, so I made it."Jace turned the meat over with a spatula and turned off the heat. Sage took a plate out and was about to plate it, but Jace stopped her."It's very oily. Don't get yourself dirty. I'll do it. Go over and have a seat. Just wait for the food."Sage

It was Jace's first time making fried pork chop. It was crispy on the outside and tender on the inside.Sage nodded in satisfaction. "You're quite a talented cook."It seemed like she could train him to become a househusband soon."If you like it, I'll make it for you more often." Jace smiled with great pleasure.Jace thought Sage was just being nice. She probably would not eat that much to keep fit. He did not expect her to have such a good appetite. Sage did not hold back and could not stop eating the whole night. She gulped the soup down and ate the meat in mouthfuls. Looking at her eat made him crave food too.Even so, Jace knew Sage was not in a good mood. She was not happy when he got back. Perhaps, it began after she got the phone call from Hunter.She was eating this way to vent her annoyance."Do you want some wine?" Jace asked softly. Earlier, Jace used a portion of the wine to make the seafood soup. He drank the rest with Sage during the meal.Sage nodded and wante

Sage got really drunk after the wine. She curled up in Jace's arms like a cat and no longer tried to hide her emotions. She seemed to be very emotional and down."I don't understand. I haven't wronged Jon and Jericho. Why are they doing this to me?"Sage's eyes seemed mesmerized and sad. "Jon and Jericho have been working with me for a long time. They are capable, which is why I promoted them. They stayed with me during my most difficult years."She lamented, "When Braxton and Zane made Norah Group a mess, they didn't even think about leaving. We've gone through thick and thin together. It's time to enjoy the blessings, and this happens. Why? Do you think they are short of money? Why didn't they talk to me? Do they think I'll be stingy? Of all things, they chose the most stupid way and got into big trouble."Jace held Sage in his arms quietly. He listened to her talking about these things.He had been betrayed by his own people before and understood her feelings at the moment.Th

While Hunter was trying to shower Sage in flattery, there was a knock on the door.Hunter immediately changed his expression to a serious one. He turned around to open the door only to find Finn's pale and haggard face."Mister Janssen." Hunter greeted Finn.Finn answered with a slight nod of acknowledgment. When he went in and walked past him, he stopped as if he remembered something.Finn asked Hunter, "Is your wedding the day after tomorrow?"Hunter responded, "Yes. It's the day after tomorrow at Crowne Suits. Can you make it?""I have some plans for the day after tomorrow. I may not be able to make it," Finn said and fished out a thick red envelope from his suit pocket. He put it into Hunter's hand and managed a smile on his pale face."Happy wedding."Hunter thanked him. He wanted to say something to Finn, but he was afraid of making Sage wait too long, so he held off his thoughts and let him in.The door to the office was closed. Finn stopped in his tracks a little longe

Just as Finn was about to say something, his phone suddenly buzzed twice and interrupted him. He could not say anything.When he took out his phone and looked at it, his face changed.Sage's eyelashes flutter slightly. She was about to say something, but Finn stood up abruptly and clutched his phone hard in his hand."I'm sorry. I have to leave now. I…"Finn stammered. He met Sage's eyes but could not say anything in the end. He only bowed deeply to her and ran out with his phone in his hand."Finn!" Sage called out to him but could not stop him. The only response she got was a closed door.…The Norah Group was at a crossroads. During this eventful period, the company lost three key members in the senior management with Finn's resignation as the CEO and the firing of the two directors of the Purchasing Department and Marketing Department.It felt as if all the troubles were making her age faster."How about I work for you as the CEO?"Yoel followed the Samuel family to atten

While Sage was busy looking for the right candidate, someone suggested himself.Sage looked at Kyle sitting across from her with Shanie and Jenny. The girls were here to shop. Sage was still in disbelief. "Are you serious? Do you really want to work for us?"It was a hot day, but Kyle was still dressed in a white shirt and black pants. He had the complete look of a business elite. He looked handsome with his features and sharp brows.Kyle smiled. "Of course, I'm serious. I've already submitted my resignation letter. If you don't hire me, I'll have to get a job at Jenny's company."Kyle said and glanced over at Jenny with clear eyes and a bright smile.Sage watched their interaction and thought Kyle might prefer to be a security guard at Golding Shiny Jewelry rather than a CEO at Norah Group."Thank you for coming forward at a time like this. You're a blessing. If possible, I'd love to have you."Sage said faintly, "I'm just afraid it's not good enough for you."Kyle let out a

Sage heard of the saying, 'Marriage is for happiness, and so does divorce.'Based on Wikipedia, the definition of marriage was, 'Marriage is a long-term contractual relationship between a man and a woman based on equal consent.'Someone once said, 'Marriage is like a siege. Those outside wanted to break in, while people inside wanted to break out of the siege.'Sage and Jace had been through marriage once. In their first marriage, they were both losers. This time, they were both determined to win. They wanted to live their lives well. Even if their passion were to fade in the future, they would never leave each other. There were eight couples in line ahead of them. Sage and Jace were the ninth.Jace was eager for their turn. He counted carefully and then said with a smile, "It's nine again. It's a good day for this number."Jace suddenly came up with a good idea, "Let's have a daughter and call her Little Nine, okay?"'Did he just come up with that? How brave,' Sage thought and

The ninth of September arrived quickly.Sage was worried that Jace would not be able to get up on time, but Sage turned out to be the one who overslept. Sage had not slept all night because of a certain someone. She was so sleepy, while Jace was full of energy.Jace carried Sage to the bathroom to wash up and brush her teeth. "Open your mouth. 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. "Dear, aren't you hurting yourself by doing this…""Look at my dark circles. They're so ugly. How am I supposed to take pictures? Sage complained in anger.Jace squinted and rubbed his eyes. "Let me see. What's ugly?"He held Sage's face and observed it. "What's ugly? It's not ugly. My wife is the prettiest in the world!"Jace did not care about the toothpaste foam all over Sage's mouth and kissed her anyway.Primrose opened the door and

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

'Electric drill? Seriously?!' Jace thought and got a headache.Seeing that Sage was about to open her mouth again, he panicked and kissed her directly to shut her up.Dean was stunned by Jace's quick action. When he saw the couple kissing in the light, he suddenly raised his hand and hit his head.'I must be on the set… Who else would be so shameless as to kiss in public like that?' Dean thought.Sage finally calmed down after a long kiss. Jace breathed a sigh of relief and picked her up. He told Logan, "I'll leave the other guy to you!""Oh," Logan responded. Then he picked Dean up like a kid and walked out the door.Jace was tired and sweaty by the time he arrived at the hotel. Sage was already soundly asleep.

"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. He said, smiling, "It is. Basketball is all about teamwork. Small forward is probably the most versatile of the five main basketball positions and carries multiple functions in the game.

Jace muffled his laughs and relaxed in the night light. He said, "I have to work harder, or someone will call me old.""Hey." 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. Sage and Jace lay flat on the bed after laughing nonstop. They opened up and improved their intimacy so much. As a result, their whole body and mind were very relaxed tonight. "Hey..." The two spoke in unison, exchanged a glance, and smiled again.Sage said, "Go ahead."Jace looked at Sage and muttered, "I'll say something, but don't get mad at it.""Just say it."
