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 did not expect Jace to be waiting for her to say that. She gave him a look and pouted slightly. "Could you be any more obvious with your hints?"Jace smiled and said frankly, "I'm making an obvious hint."Sage managed a smile and did not continue the subject. She was just talking about having children for fun but not yet ready. Giving birth to children was not that easy. She would have to be responsible for her own choice.It was not the same as grabbing a toy from the claw machine. She could stuff any toy she disliked back into the machine.Sage was not afraid to raise the children, but just the thought of giving birth made her feel pain in her belly.If only Jace could give birth. In that case, she would not mind having more than a dozen children. Having enough children to form a soccer team would be very impressive.…When Sage and Jace returned to Rosa Garden, the place was very busy. Everyone was working on the wedding preparations.Sage's brothers were busy, but th

    Jace was not just silly. He was quick too.Before Sage could even react, Jace came over and planted a hard kiss on her lips.Sage was still sleepy. She muttered lazily, "What are you doing here in the middle of the night? Why aren't you staying in your room?"Sage's family set up a room in Rosa Garden just for Jace because of his frequent visits. Jace no longer had to stay in Luther's room every time he came, but he did not spend nearly as much time in his room as Sage's."I want to sleep with you in my arms," Jace said, rubbing against her and taking her into his arms.Sage stopped pushing him away. She did not have much time to sleep. After all, it will be a busy day ahead. Sage leaned into his arms and rested on his shoulder. She could not help but lament, "A wedding ceremony is so troublesome. There's a lot more to do tomorrow."Jace chuckled softly. "For a couple who truly love each other, a wedding is both tiring and happy. After all, to them, it's a marriage in a lifetim

    Luther crossed his arms and teased her, "You're such a narcissist. Do you really love yourself that much?""What's wrong with that?"Sage did not seem embarrassed at all. She looked up slightly and said, "If I'm a man, I don't think I'll be good enough for a woman like me."Luther rolled his eyes at her in speechlessness. He elbowed Jace slightly and asked, "Is she implying something about you?"Jace was not angry at all. He smiled warmly and said, "I don't think I'm good enough for a woman like her either.Luther was lost for words and convinced that the couple was in it in their own world. He was just an extra between them.After Sage got changed, she went to Leah's room. The makeup artist was styling Leah. It was clear that Leah was very sleepy. She squinted her eyes and dropped her head like she was about to drift to sleep.When Leah saw Sage, her eyes lit up in surprise. "Sage, you're so pretty!""You're even more beautiful. You're the most beautiful today. No one else wil

    The crowd went downstairs. There was still one more activity before leaving the house.Wayne, Sawyer, and Primrose sat on the mahogany sofa. Hunter held Leah and paid their respect to the elders."Grandpa, please have some tea."Wayne smiled with joy and drank the tea. Then, he handed over the wedding gift and his blessings.Wayne purposely groomed himself and dressed better for the big day. Instead of wearing his usual gray suit, he put on a formal suit and looked extraordinarily energetic."You better be nice to Leah. Otherwise, I'll hit you with a tobacco pipe." Wayne made a warning gesture to Hunter, which made the crowd chuckle. Hunter and Leah laughed along with them.The newlywed exchanged a glance. Hunter replied cheerily, "Don't worry. I'll be good to her for the rest of my life. I'll love Leah and treasure her like the apple of my eye!"Sawyer and Primrose drank the tea and handed their wedding gifts to the newlywed couple.

Therefore, Primrose made a phone call to Sergio and requested the largest banquet hall.At first, Sergio thought Sage was getting married and almost fell off his chair with excitement, but he calmed down a little after knowing that it was Leah who was getting married instead. He pretended to be troubled and said to Primrose, "July is full. Well, as you know, Crowne Suits is really busy…"Before Sergio could

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.

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

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.

    "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.

    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.
