Cole was panting. "It's an international flight heading to Tovres. Lucian is on the plane too."Then he sent the flight information to Sage. After thinking for a while, Sage sent an email to Yale, and Yale replied in no time.[Don't worry. Tim told me. I'll handle the rest.]Sage felt relieved reading the reply from Yale. She mumbled to herself, "I really have to give it to Tim. He is still amazing as always…"…At night, Jack woke up once. Jace quickly approached and looked at Jack's emaciated face. He whispered in Jack's ear, "Are you hungry? Florence cooked chicken soup."Jack opened his eyes and laughed when he heard Jace's question. "Chicken soup by Florence. Is it edible?""How is it not edible?" Florence had a pair of sharp ears. She walked over and said, "Primrose had two servings."Jack looked more spirited when he heard that. "Primrose is a picky person. If she had two servings, it means the chicken soup must be very tasty. I'm going to drink three servings!"Jace he

Jack had a grand funeral. The newspaper had dedicated a section reporting Jake's passing and also displayed part of his works. Florence and Jace kept some of his works. A portion of his works was being collected by other people while they auctioned off the other portions. All of the auctioned money was donated to charity.It took two days for Sage and Jace to handle Jack's funeral after Jack passed away. In the meantime, they failed to arrest Sheila. Yale had made the necessary arrangements to arrest Sheila once she arrived at the airport, but he only managed to arrest Lucian.Sheila had tricked them. She was never on the plane in the beginning. Now that her whereabouts were a mystery, no one knew where she went.As Lucian got deported back, Jon and Jericho's murder case were solved as Lucian and Finn finally confessed the truth. Finn took all the blame and confessed to being the one who murdered Jon and Jericho. As such, Sage was cleared and no longer a suspect in the case.The co

Sage answered her own question, "I'm always optimistic.""Yeah." Jace nuzzled her ear and kissed her. "You're my little sunshine. You're the warm and bright sunshine just for me."Sage did not consider herself a little sunshine, but his kiss made her feel hot. She turned her head and met his gaze. The two looked at each other and kissed without saying a word.…Sage looked at Jace as he got up. She felt a little bad about it and asked tentatively, "Jack died not long ago. Isn't this a bad idea?"Jace thought about it and said, "What was Jack's last wish?"Sage was slightly startled and said, "Didn't he say he wanted to have a couple of children with Florence.""Well, he was still thinking about that at the end of his life, so we… Let's think of it as fulfilling his dream. It's fine," Jace said and leaned over.Sage pondered Jace's words. It made sense when she first heard it, but the more she thought about it, something felt wrong.It was obvious that Jace was in the mood for

Sage's cold question made Finn shiver uncontrollably.Finn lifted his face from his palms. He seemed as fragile as a child, with his face full of tears. When his wet eyes met Sage's cold eyes, his heart sank.Sage had always been smart. He knew she could see right through him.Finn dropped his head and felt like a sinner. He moved his dry lips and said, "My father caused Sawyer and Primrose's car accident."Finn forced the words out of his throat, "My father betrayed your parents."Sage narrowed her eyes. "How did you know? Did Sheila tell you?"Sage's reaction was different from his expectation. He looked up at Sage and widened his eyes in shock. "Y…You knew?"Sage nodded indifferently.Finn was completely stunned. At that moment, all sorts of complicated emotions flashed in his eyes.Sage felt like Finn was on the verge of collapse for a moment. He looked like he was hanging in mid-air and swaying dangerously. If not careful, he would fall into the abyss."Finn!" Sage leane

"Are you talking about her identity in Harbor City and the Stone family?" Finn answered honestly, "I didn't know at first, but I found out later."Sage asked, "Did you know Sheila's purpose for coming here?""I found out later too." Finn looked up at Sage and said, "She came for you. She also came for something.""Something that Jack made?"Finn nodded. "Yes."Sage narrowed her eyes. "So, do you also know her other identity besides Miss Stone?"Finn hesitated slightly and nodded. "Yes."This time, Sage was silent.Finn's heart jumped at her silence. He called out to her in a mumbled voice, "Sage..."Sage questioned flatly, "Are you trying to get me killed?"Her cold words pierced Finn like a sharp blade.Finn shuddered and shook his head violently. He exclaimed, "No! Of course not!""You don't want me to die, but you conspired with her. You helped her and threw dirty water on me. Aren't you trying to kill me?" Sage's tone was cold.Finn's breathing became rapid. He seemed

Sage left the detention center with a darkened look as gloomy as the dark and overcast sky.Jace leaned on the side of the car while waiting. When he saw Sage coming out, he came to get her.Jace did not have to ask about Sage's conversation with Finn. Just by looking at the look on Sage's face, he knew it did not go well.Nigel sat in the car. When he saw Sage, he poked his head out and rested his arm on the window frame. "Look at your face. You looked so pissed…"Sage ignored him. Meanwhile, Sean threw the suit jacket on his arm at Nigel. Nigel caught it and went back into the car.While on the way back, Sage remained silent the whole time. Sean told Nigel and Jace about Sage's conversation with Finn in summary.Nigel and Jace both listened with sullen faces."I can't believe she used hypnosis. Sheila really has many tricks up her sleeves."Nigel crossed his arms and narrowed his eyes. "She hypnotized him to awaken his specific experiences and behaviors… Finn felt guilty for

Soon, the group went back to Rosa Garden. Sean took the trouble to repeat Sage's conversation with Finn to the family.Sawyer and Primrose listened and furrowed their brows. They were surprised that Sheila hypnotized Finn and that Finn's mother was in Sheila's hand.Primrose said, "Is Finn's mother still alive? I thought Finn was raised in a single-parent family. Didn't Frank raise him alone?"Primrose looked at Sawyer. Sawyer shook his head in reply. He was not quite sure about that either."Who said Frank was the one who raised Finn?"Zamora came over with a pot of tea. She said to the confused crowd, "Frank and his wife are very lovey-dovey. I used to see Frank crying in the garden with his wife's photo in his hand. He missed her so much that he hid in the garden and cried.""There was once when Finn asked his father for his mom. He asked Frank where she was. Frank got so mad that he hit Finn twice, but I stopped him. Little Finn was crying badly. I went over and talked to him

The discussion continued all night, but Sage barely spoke. Her face was very sullen.Zamora had prepared some sausage and pasta for everyone to snack on as supper. Sage usually ate a lot, but she had no appetite and went upstairs instead.Jace saw and wanted to follow, but Primrose stopped him."Eat your food and leave her alone."Jace's gaze flickered as if to say, 'How can I leave her alone?'Sawyer looked up and explained nicely, "She's not in a good mood. Leave her alone and let her calm down. You can coax her later."Jace then sat down slowly. He knew Sage's temper well. Sage did not like to be disturbed in a particularly bad mood. She would either vent by carving something alone or zone out."She's furious," Nigel said as he picked the meat out of the pasta and gave it to Sean."She hates it when someone keeps talking next to her when she's angry. When she was a child, she once quarreled with her mom and shut herself in the room for three days. Luther and I went to mess w

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.

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

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. 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..."
