A Relentless Pursuit for Love Chapter 1230
Primrose and Sawyer's sudden arrival was just in time.Primrose and Sawyer originally planned to come over to meet Jack and Florence for fun. When they arrived, they were surprised to see Sage's car at the foot of the hill and knew she had come to visit too.They noticed Sage's car first and then Finn's. 'Is Finn here too?' they thought in confusion.The two entered without knocking. Then, they heard the argument in the inner room from a distance. They heard about Jack's condition and Sheila's ridiculous demands and ravings.The short-tempered Primrose immediately turned furious.Sheila was shocked. Clearly, she did not expect Primrose's sudden appearance.Primrose was none other than the legendary Holy Maiden Elan and Queen of Hearts, who became the Missus Norah today. She was her senior.Sheila grew up listening to the legend of the Queen of Hearts in East Town. Everyone said she was the big boss's godsister and had the most beautiful and ageless faze. She had amazing combat p

Primrose suddenly looked up and glared at Jack with fierce eyes, which made Jack cough.Jace was still holding Jack to support him and rushed to pat his back."What have you been doing these past few months?"Primrose bellowed as she squeezed Jack's wrist and looked at one of his hands.The members of the Norah family all had rough hands. Unlike the Norah family, Jack's hands were more delicate than girls. His long hands were fair and soft.Jack had taken good care of his hands. In the past, Primrose always laughed at Jack for applying hand cream all morning and night, but she knew he did it for professional reasons.Jack's hands were still fair and soft, but it was very red. His skin seemed to be very thin. Jack had been clutching his hands earlier, hiding them from them. When Primrose spread out Jack's palms, Sage and Jace both frowned at what they saw. Their hearts jumped."Jack!" Jace called out to Jack anxiously, "Did you take some jobs again?"Sage looked up at Jack with

Sage had the same question as Primrose. She had never known about Sheila being a student of Jack. When did Jack take her in as a student?From the biographical information Sage found, it was mentioned that Sheila had studied painting and won some awards. However, there was no mention of a famous painting master like Jack. This was an unusually low profile in Sheila's inspiring and high-profile biography. Sage could tell that something was strange from experience. Jace and Jack's relationship was more like a tutor and student, but Sheila referred to Jack as her master. Sheila seemed more like Jack's protege. Jack was great at painting, but his art forgery skill was even better.Sage suddenly looked over at Sheila's hand.She had touched Sheila's hands more than once. At first, she suspected Sheila's identity and deliberately tested her, but Sheila's hands were not rough with calluses. Instead, it was delicate and well taken care of. Sheila seemed like a lady who had not done an

Sheila broke Finn's grip and shot Sage a cold glare. "If you're not leaving, why should I leave?""Because we can help. Can you?"Sage thought that Sheila must be very ill. She could never understand what others said to her politely. In that case, she had to be as rude as possible."Sage!" Sheila got really furious at Sage's provocation. "Don't go too far!""Are we going too far, or are you going too far?"Sage lost her patience and said coldly, "Jack is so sick. As a student, you should be concerned about his illness and hurry to get the doctor to treat him. Instead, you're behaving arrogantly here. What's the point?""You said a student should serve the master and made it sound so pleasant. If you're really so filial, Jack wouldn't have been in this state under your care. If you can't take care of him well, we will. You're not Jack's only student. Jace is Jack's student too.""Hmph." Sheila sneered. "I'm different from him.""Isn't it just forgery? I've learned that before."

Jack's condition was much more serious than it appeared. Jack was still fighting with Primrose in the afternoon. The two elders could scold each other relentlessly until their faces were red. Sage took Jack's side and argued with Primrose for him. Primrose scolded Sage for being an ungrateful child and helping Jack.Jace listened quietly without saying anything. He knew the mother and daughter were trying to use this way to stabilize Jack's energy and bring him to life.Jack's end was near. By late afternoon, Jack slumped in the bed drowsily. He was already out of breath and slow to breathe."Mom, this isn't working. Let's get him to the hospital."Sage was already panicking as a doctor. Jack's condition was deteriorating so fast that their way was not working.Primrose read Jack's pulse again and shook her head with a heavy sigh."He has attained his goals and has no desire to live."Primrose looked over at Florence. "What did Sheila take, and what are they up to?"Florence

Otherwise, Jack's hand would not be badly injured. His lungs would not have deteriorated to that extent all of a sudden.Sage got up from Jace's shoulder. The two exchanged a gaze and walked together to the studio without saying anything.The art studio was originally Florence's studio. When Jack moved in, she generously gave him half the space.Both of them were artists. One focused on costuming, and the other on drawing. The two were always busy with their work and did not disturb each other. They occasionally advised each other with a few comments. They also spent their free time enjoying a leisure walk in the mountains and picking flowers. They invited their friends over to hold an art exhibition occasionally.The two had a quiet and peaceful life. It was the perfect life for the couple.There were many drawings displayed in the studio, such as Florence's costume design for the classic dramas and Jack's landscape paintings and character portraits. The heroine in all the portra

Just when Sage and Jace were suspicious of the drawings, Sage's phone rang. She took her phone out and saw it was Sean calling.He called to inform them there was new information about the case.After that, they left the art studio and went back inside. Sage put the call on speaker and requested Sawyer and Primrose to come to listen to the call together.Sean started, "The Jablonsky family has been turned upside down, and they provided some new information to us."The new Missus Jablonsky had gone overseas with her two sons. The police were unable to contact her, so they went to look for Jon's ex-wife and his eldest son for more information. At first, his ex-wife was reluctant to cooperate and insisted she knew nothing after being divorced from Jon for many years.Thus, Sean deliberately revealed the current Missus Jablonsky received 30 million dollars from an education fund that was left by Jon. Once Jon's ex-wife knew of that, she was furious. When the police were still there, s

"Your young miss?" Missus Maberry squinted her eyes, "Who is the young miss you are working for?"The housemaid replied, "Her family name is Norah."Missus Maberry got worked up and nearly threw the housemaid out of the house by beating her. Luckily, Logan arrived in time and brought the housemaid away with him. He even scolded Miss Maberry for being ungrateful."Ungrateful? Stop trying to act like you are the good guys! If you are so kind, why don't you get Sage to give me back my husband? Or I'll never forgive her!"Missus Maberry could not stop throwing fits. She even flipped the table. The food and plates were over the floor. It startled her two younger sons. They cried horribly."That's enough! When are you going to stop being a crazy woman?" Joaquin could not tolerate it anymore. He grasped his hands into fists and shouted at his mother with red eyes.Missus Maberry was stunned when her eldest son yelled at her. Joaquin ran into the room and gave her his father's letter bef

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. Jace put her to bed and took off her shoes, socks, pants, and clothes. He stripped her clean.Sage drank a lot and was reeking of alcohol. Jace did not want to wake her up, so he did not carry her to the bathroom and bathe her. Instead, he wet the towel with hot water to

"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." Sage looked at him.Jace though
