Cole was not happy at his friends' disdainful gazes."I have to find an excuse for myself. Otherwise, how can I get away from this? I'm just a small captain of the investigation team. How could I investigate a chief like him?"Yoel, however, was curious about the result of Cole's question. "What did he say to you?"Cole said, "Peter looked at me and said nothing. He let me go."Yoel moved his mouth. Cole seemed to read his mind and reached out to him. "If you say that's it again, I'll smack you."Yoel bristled in silence and swallowed the words.Jace looked at Cole with a sullen look. "So, what did you find out?""I did find out something."Cole said, "I heard about this from the old detective. Peter's personality isn't the same as it used to be. He always had a serious face, but he spoke less nowadays. He was short-tempered and might scold and curse others while angry. His temperament has changed a lot now. He's colder than before, and his eyes are scarier now. However, he doe

Jace reached out and patted Sage's head. He said in a low voice, "Don't worry. I'll speak to my uncle later and see if we can get more information from him. Aunt Primrose probably doesn't want to tell us because of her own reasons. Maybe there are some things she doesn't want us to know. We'll find out eventually.""Indeed." Sage snorted, "There's no secret that'll last forever. I'll see how long she can keep it to herself."When they returned to Rosa Garden, they saw Primrose munching a packet of snacks with an angry face. She was watching television while sitting with her leg crossed.A drama played on the television. Primrose was glaring at one of the characters and biting into the snacks fiercely."What's wrong?"Sage found Primrose to be in an unpredictable mood. Her mood was changing like a roller coaster.Sage looked at Sawyer and asked, "Did the snack bar offend her? Or did the character offend her?"Sawyer glanced at Sage and said, "The computer made her angry."'The c

The group stayed in the room with the doors and windows closed. Primrose leaned over the desk and stared at Sage and Jace coldly and quietly.She looked very serious. It was as if she was looking at her daughter and future son-in-law as some outlaws. Her gaze was sharp as knives.Jace sat on the sofa and felt uneasy. Jace was on pins and needles because of Primrose's intense staring.Sage actually felt weak in her heart. She was usually very aggressive with her mother, but she was still quite afraid of her mother. After all, she grew up under Primrose's strict guidance.Primrose might be casual and playful while relaxed, but she was quite different whenever she got serious. Sage resembled her mother a lot in this regard. It was like a split personality.Sawyer found the atmosphere too tense, so he went over to Primrose and patted her back. "Talk nicely."Primrose's face eased because of Sawyer's comfort. However, her eyes were still sullen. "Tell me. What have you found out?"Sa

Tim, Sage, and Jace turned to Primrose as soon as she asked that question. Their actions seemed to say, 'It's you. That's you. Yup, you.'Primrose was lost for words.Tim came in and closed the door behind him. He said, "It's about Peter, isn't it? Good, I'd like to know too."After that, he found a place to sit down and was all ears.Sage was pleased to have Tim's backing. She decided not to leave and sat on the sofa again. She tugged Jace's wrist and signaled him to sit down.Tim had spoken. This time, Primrose must tell them something.Primrose suddenly felt like she was surrounded by enemies.Sawyer advised Primrose timely, "You can't keep it a secret forever. The more you try to hide it, the more trouble will come. If the children want to know, just tell them. Otherwise, they won't stop going about it. Besides, more people means more help."Sawyer gave Primrose a look and told her to go along with the situation. After all, she was the one who needed Sage's help.Primrose

"Younger brother?"It was surprising to Sage. She asked in shock, "Is he our uncle?"Primrose missed her brother and was in sorrow. When she heard Sage's question, she gave her a look and said, "We're not blood-related.""I see." Sage did not find that surprising. She said indifferently, "Isn't Shawn your godbrother too? You weren't blood-related to him either."Primrose's face sunk at the mention of Shawn. "How can he be the same?"Sage knew Shawn was Primrose's nemesis. She should not have mentioned his name. She did not like talking about that perverted old man either, so she quickly changed the topic."Okay, okay. Let's continue with Blue Snake's story. Didn't you say before that he was dead?"Sage's words stabbed Primrose's heart like a knife. Primrose paled immediately. The past she wanted to forget kept coming back to her.Sage, Jace, and Tim saw Primrose pale and tremble in fear. Their faces changed immediately. They stood up and wanted to go over to Primrose, but Sawye

Sage gaped in shock. She could not accept how she was suddenly related to Peter Walter.Jace agreed with Sage's guesses, but he was equally surprised and found it unbelievable."If the current Peter is Blue Snake, then what about the original Peter? Is he dead?" Tim hit the nail on the head when he said that with a sullen face.Everyone looked up and turned to Tim. Everything they say was just their speculation. There was no evidence to support their analysis.As the state minister, it was unlikely that someone would replace Peter casually. Whether Blue Snake was alive or dead was still a mystery."That's all you've found out?"Primrose looked anxious. "Didn't you say you contacted Jace's uncle? Does your uncle have detailed information on Peter's profile?"Sage and Jace felt bad at Primrose's question.Sage touched her nose and said embarrassedly, "Uhm… We were going to look for it, but we haven't had time yet..."Before she could say anything, Primrose yelled at them, "You h

Sage had been sick recently. Jace stayed close to take care of her, but it had been a while since their last intimate moment.Staying so close and skin-to-skin made them a little emotional and passionate.Sage stared at Jace with an intense gaze and dewy eyes. She appeared more attractive in Jace's eyes. Jace gulped at the way she looked at him and tensed a little.Sage put her hand around his waist and touched the spot on his back where he got beaten.When she was about to ask him if it hurt, Jace frowned and asked, "Why is your hand so cold?"Jace rolled over slightly and put Sage down. He held her hand and warmed it up. Sage got back on top of him and lifted his shirt. The spot was only red but not swollen or bruised. She was relieved to know that her mother had not bruised him. Sage muttered, "She's surprisingly soft on you. She was much harder on me when I was a kid. Who's her child?"Jace laughed at Sage's jealousy and said, "My mom beat me hard too, but she's a lot nicer

"Why are you laughing!"Sage smacked Jace. She thought Jace was laughing at her terrible singing. When she turned her head, she saw Jace wearing a big and silly smile on his handsome face.Jace used to be no smiles at all times. He always wore an indifferent or stern face. Jace started smiling more after he got together with Sage. He always wore a soft smile but rarely beamed as much as this moment.Sage gave her a strange look. "What's up? Why are you wearing that silly smile the whole time?"Jace continued smiling. "Did you hear what Primrose said earlier?"His question was an affirmative statement. He heard what Primrose said to them. Sage could not have missed it. However, Sage played dumb and asked, "What? My mom said a lot of things. Which one are you talking about?"Jace reached out and cupped her chin with his thumb and forefinger. He gently tipped her head toward him. Then, he met her eyes and said solemnly, "She said something about me wanting to marry you.""Did she s

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.
