Sage did not know if this was sadder or simply mocking.

Sheila took two lives as soon as she came to Salem City. Instead of being low-key, Sheila's method of keeping a low profile turned out to be more high-profile.

...

Sage got them checked into room 66, a presidential suite. When she entered the password to unlock the door, she casually asked, "Are you two going to share a room?"

It was a very serious question, but it made Lulu and Asher blush.

Asher secretly glanced at Lulu and stammered, "If you don't have an additional room, we can stay in one room… That's fine."

His reply made Lulu flushed red.

Sage and Jace looked at their interaction and were wise enough to stay quiet.

Just after the door to room 66 was opened, the door of room 77 next door opened too. A head with messy hair poked out. It was Yoel.

"You're back. I just woke up…"

Yoel scratched his head and froze when he spotted Asher standing right there. He rubbed his eyes and craned his neck. "Damn! Asher!"

    No one would have expected to see Melody walking out of Yoel's room.Everyone was dumbfounded and watched Sage go after Melody, who rushed back to the room at lightning speed. Before Melody could close the door, Sage held it open."Don't you run! Open the door!""Sage..." Melody pushed against the door as hard as she could. She was completely awake from the shock. "I'll open the door, but you have to promise not to hit me."'Promise? What nonsense!' Sage could barely control the anger burning in her. She just wanted to give Melody a beating!Sage gave her no room for negotiation. She said with a sullen look, "On the count of three…"Melody opened the door before Sage could say one. The count of three had been an effective spell against Melody from childhood to adulthood.Melody was not the only one shaking in fear. Yoel was so nervous outside the door that he wanted to run on reflex.Sage pushed open the door and wanted to slap Melody, but Melody quickly jumped and hid behind

    "What are you looking at? Stand still!" Sage roared.Melody jumped in shock and quickly turned her head around again. Meanwhile, Jace and Asher forced Yoel to the corner."Hey, this is too much! I didn't do anything wrong!"Yoel rubbed the corners of his mouth with an aggrieved look. He glanced in Sage's direction and retracted his gaze immediately. Then, his gaze wandered around Melody for a while."What are you looking at?" Asher smacked him on the head. "Won't you stop it?"Yoel glared at them. He kept his voice low and muttered, "Are you my comrades or not? Why are you helping the enemy?"Jace crossed his arms and looked at him coldly. "We're fighting for justice."Yoel was lost for words."That's right!" Asher went along with it and squinted his eyes at Yoel. "I haven't seen you for a year. You've become more and more terrible. You even put your hands on such a young lady. What a pervert. Don't you know molestation of minors is against the law? You'll get in jail for thi

    Yoel behaved after Sage punched him. After that, he changed into more formal clothes and sat on the sofa. He also had ice packs on his face. He hugged a pillow and curled on the sofa in a depressing mood.He occasionally glanced at Melody, who was in the kitchen. Melody simply ignored it and stood by Sage and helped her.Sage was in a bad mood and looked gloomy. 'You deserved it,' she cursed when Melody grumbled about her headache, but she still made some hot chocolate for her."Thanks, Sage." Melody smiled sweetly at Sage with a cup of spiced hot chocolate in her hand.Many children hated spiced hot chocolate because of its spiciness, but Melody had loved this taste since she was a child. Whenever she had a headache, fever, or feeling down, a cup of spiced hot chocolate would cure all her discomfort. It was very effective and an easy cure.Ross found little Melody in the mountains when she almost froze in the cold. A cup of spiced hot chocolate saved her life. Maybe that was why

    Yoel did not expect Melody's reaction. Instead of feeling sorry for him, she grunted softly."It was because you bullied me. You deserved Sage's beating, and she has been merciful to you. If someone else had done so, she would have given him a hard beating, breaking their limbs. You should be glad, you know?"Yoel listened to Melody and caught something. "Oh," he responded meaningfully."I should be glad because it's me… Why? You can't bear to see me hurt?"Melody was rendered speechless. She looked up sharply and widened her eyes. "That's not my main point!"Yoel could not help but laugh at her stunned and embarrassed look. "What's your main point then?""The point is… You…" Melody looked at Yoel's teasing eyes glowing in the sunlight and was unable to speak.Yoel had fun teasing her. "What's the main point? What about me?"Melody gulped involuntarily. "You're such a shameless man!"After that, she ran away in embarrassment.'D*mn. How can this playboy look so good? He's lik

    Sheila looked at the man across the table. Her eyes flashed with disgust as she saw how he ate frantically without any manners."You shouldn't have come to Salem City and met me at this time."Lucian took the spoon out of the bowl and gulped down the soup. He ate like he had been starving for days and burped loudly.Then, he pulled a tissue paper and wiped his oily mouth. "If I don't come to you, I'll starve to death."Sheila smiled coldly. "Aren't you the great Chief Rockey? Are you showing me your miserable side? What you have is more than enough for a commoner to survive for weeks. What happened to your jewelry collections? Did you sell all of them?""Don't mention it. Missus Jablonsky is very greedy and insatiable! We agreed on one hundred million at first, but she daringly demanded double! She said she needed money to raise her two sons. To raise them to adulthood, she needed one hundred million each. Did she really think about her sons as a golden goose?"Lucian complained

    Sheila narrowed her eyes."Sage has everything I've dreamed of. She's born with it. She has everything I tried so hard to get with no effort. Seriously, what makes Sages so special? What makes me no better than her? She was lucky to be born into a good family. What's the big deal?""I just want to trample those high and mighty princesses under my foot and show them who is the real king of this world!"A cold light flashed across Sheila's eyes. Her words seemed to carry their own sound effects and hit Lucian's heart like fireworks.Lucian went over to hug her. He carried her in his arms, kissed her cheek, and said, "I really like your brashness."Sheila chuckled softly. She puffed cigarette smoke in his face as the two made out with lingering passion.Lucian had a lot of questions in his mind. "However, I've always wondered about Sage's mother. How could she have so many children? She has so many sons with different family names. Did she remarry so many times? She's a lecherous wo

    After lunch, Sage and Jace parted ways with Lulu and Asher at Tasteful Restaurant.Yoel offered to take Lulu and Asher to the horse farm for a bit of fun and a walk around Salem City.Melody stood beside Sage obediently. Although she wanted to go as well, she felt guilty and did not dare to ask for more.Yoel got into his fancy car and looked over at Melody. "You're not coming with us?"Melody darted her eyes to Sage. She pressed her lips and did not dare to say anything.Lulu sat in the car and saw the situation clearly. She chuckled and said, "Melody, you should come with me. Accompany me."Sage turned to Melody. "Do you want to go?"Melody nodded. "Yes.""Then go ahead. I don't have time for you." Sage said, "You're an adult now. I don't have to lecture you about safety, do I?"Melody shook her head and said, "Safety first! I know that!"Melody smiled happily at Sage's nod and approval. Then, she got into the car and left with Yoel.Sage seemed unworried, but Jace was a l

    In the past, Sage constantly reminded herself to stay awake and sensible. She warned herself not to fall too deep or rely too much on another person. However, she was just human.Her feelings naturally changed over time. It was not something controllable by sheer will. She had to admit that she actually liked this feeling."Jace," Sage suddenly called out his name. She looked up and met his gaze."You don't have to stay with me all day. I'm fine. You can go about your business. We're dating, but you don't need to be around me at all times. I can take care of myself. You don't have to worry. By the way, you've stayed in Salem City for so long. What about your family in Nadeem City?"Jace fixed his gaze on her. "Are you chasing me away?"Sage looked at his innocent and aggrieved look in silence. She suddenly felt speechless, unsure whether she should laugh or cry. 'Why is he acting like a child?' she thought."Am I?" Sage said helplessly, "Most domineering CEOs are always busy with

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.

    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

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?'

    "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.
