Fabian put down the teacup and said, "Yes. I've heard of it before."

Fabian placed his hands in front and interlocked his fingers. He said with a sober look, "East Town is located in the Southeast region of the Golden Triangle. It's a formerly prosperous business town that became a base for outlaws. It was also known as the Little Golden Triangle. The local leader, Shawn, has been responsible for several bombings, assassinations, kidnappings, and robberies. He has attracted attention for his belief in the Holy Maiden Elan, which promotes geneticism and racism."

Sage answered with a hum. "Then you should know Jekyll, the man who kidnapped me before. He's from East Town."

Fabian glanced up at Sage and responded with a nod, "I know him. He's one of the bosses from the organization in East Town."

Then, he turned to Jace. "If it weren't for him, Jace wouldn't have been in such a bad accident and almost died."

Jace bowed his head slightly.

The Yuriel family was very happy when Jace cam

    Fabian raised his hand slightly. He said, "Personal matters are personal. Rules are rules. Peter's status is quite special. I can't show you his file."Jace and Sage tensed up. They were waiting for Fabian's next words. It seemed like there would be a 'but'."However..." Fabian met their eyes and gave them a fox-like smile. "I can give you a tip without breaking the rules."Sage and Jace saw his smile and sensed a dangerous trap ahead. They should watch out.Their instinct was right. Fabian said in the next moment, "Since he's an old acquaintance of your mother's, why don't you just go to him and ask him?"Sage and Jace were rendered speechless. They knew it! It was a huge trap ahead!Sage and Jace could barely manage a smile. They both shared the same thought, 'Uncle Fabian, you're so smart!'If they could have asked Peter directly, why would they travel to Gemfield?Sage was at a loss after sending Fabian away. "Somehow, Uncle Fabian doesn't seem very reliable. Why?"Jace cl

    It was no surprise for Jace and Sage to get suspicious.Fabian knew the situation in East Town very well. He was aware of Peter's special identity as well. Besides, he gave them a tip with a fox-like smile. It seemed like something fishy was going on.Sage and Jace pondered about Fabian's reaction earlier and thought that Fabian and Peter must know each other. They might have long been in collusion!Sage wanted to call Primrose at once, but Jace held her hand and stopped her.He hesitated a little. "Is it okay to tell her just like that?"Jace was afraid that their findings would make Primrose angry. If she stopped him from marrying Sage, that would be a real loss for him."What else can we do? Uncle Fabian has made it clear. He won't show us the file. At this point, we can only go directly to Peter to ask. My mom can decide whether she wants to talk to Peter or not. It's Peter's decision on whether he wants to admit it or not."Sage thought over and over again and made up her m

    Meanwhile, Sage was already bored with her mother's yelling. She took Jace's phone and played a random game in boredom. She wore the headset and blocked all the noises from the outside world while passing one level after another.Jace listened to Primrose scolding them until her voice became a little mute. When Jace wanted to advise her to take a break, he heard Sawyer's voice on the other end.Sawyer advised Primrose, "Okay, enough. Stop lecturing them. Your voice is getting hoarse. Drink some water and continue later."'Continue later?' Jace was not afraid of her lecture and was more worried about Primrose's voice.When Primrose paused slightly, Jace took off Sage's headset and signaled to her. It was Sage's chance and talk.Sage realized Primrose had finally stopped, so she spoke to the phone."Are you done yet? Can I say something now?""Say what!" Primrose got angry again. "I'm not done yet!""Oh. Then go on. I'll play some more games," Sage said and was about to put on th

    It was a quiet night. It started raining at some point, and it was wet outside the window. Sage and Jace were torn between returning to Salem overnight or staying longer. When it started raining, Sage was too lazy to move."Forget it. Even if my mom wants to go to Peter, she won't go tonight. It's not too late for us to go back tomorrow."Sage just fought with her mother. If she went back, she would either be beaten by her mother or her big brother. Just thinking about that made her head hurt. She would rather hide here in peace. It had been only chaos lately without stopping. Sage had not enjoyed the peace in a long time.Sage sat at the window and watched the rain. Meanwhile, Jace went out and brought back some fruits and snacks.When he came back, Sage got down from the window and went over to him. "You didn't bring an umbrella with you. Did you get wet?""I borrowed one from the hotel lobby. I didn't get wet."Jace was a little moist from the rain outside. Sage took the bag

    Jace's strong hands were still pressing and squeezing on her feet. Jace was not a medical student and did not know any acupuncture points. However, the way he squeezed her feet was very comfortable. Sage relaxed and squinted her eyes in comfort. Jace even pulled her toes a few times and gave her a complete foot massage."Ah..." Sage could not help but grunt in pleasure.Jace paused his movement slightly. "Pain?""No. It's ticklish." Sage laughed at him. "You're quite the professional."Jace heard the teasing in her voice and responded with a soft hum. Then, he tickled the bottom of her feet twice.His fingers tickled Sage so much that she jerked up and curled her toes. "Ah! Stop it!"How could Jace let her go so easily? He grabbed her ankle with one hand and tickled her soles with the other hand. Sage tensed up and kept retracting her feet. She giggled so hard that she had tears in her eyes and began to shout his name, "Jace!""I'm right here," Jace responded and continued to

    "Sage, will you marry me?"Sage heard Jace's words loud and clear. It made her feel like her soul was trembling to his words.This was not the first time he proposed to her, but hearing these words again felt different from before. She thought his words would repulse her, but to her surprise, she was happy.A woman would find happiness in the proposal by the man she loved. The hard-hearted Sage was no exception.Sage remained seated on top of Jace. She moved a little and held his face.Jace was sweating. Even his face was covered in sweat.The rain outside the window had stopped. A light flashed in his dark eyes, making them deep and fascinating.Jace fixed his gaze on Sage and looked at her as if he was waiting for a trial. Her silence made him more nervous. Jace suddenly regretted his rash action. He should not have ruined the mood by proposing at this moment."Sage, I..." Jace said in a hurry, but Sage legend in and kissed him on the lips.As he was consumed in the delica

    'She said yes!'Sage wanted to continue sleeping, but she woke up because of the pair of eyes that were constantly staring at her. Sage opened her eyes to see Jace lying close to her. He came so near and was so close to her face."What's wrong?" She opened her mouth, only to notice her hoarse voice. "Why are you staring at me like that? Are you not sleeping?"Jace inched closer and kissed her on her nose and lips. "I'm just staring at your beauty."Jace's kisses tickled Sage. She nuzzled into the pillow and let out a low laugh.Jace leaned forward and took her in his arms like a baby. He nestled her on his shoulder and tucked her in.Sage tried to get up and hissed in pain.Jace nervously asked with concern, "What's wrong? Where does it hurt?""My back feels sore." Sage pressed her waist.Jace understood immediately and hurriedly said, "Lay down. I'll give you a massage."Sage then got down. Jace put a pillow under her arm and rubbed her back. "Is this alright?""Yeah." Sage

    Jace blinked once. Sage remembered what happened and said he would marry her instead of her marrying him. Jace knew she was doing it on purpose, so he leaned in and brushed his finger on her nose."Are you going to marry me and take me home?""Uh-huh." Sage recovered some of her spirits, but she still sounded a little tired. "I wonder if I can afford to take you home?""Yes." Jace went along with her words with a straight face. "I'll marry into your family. All you need to do is provide me with a bed.""Marry into my family?" Sage laughed at that. "That means you'll be in my care. But you're too old. I might as well have a younger lover."Jace's face fell. He turned away immediately and grunted. 'Too old? Should I leave then?' he thought angrily.Sage saw Jace turn his back and sulk with mixed feelings. He was obviously very angry but did not want to leave. Somehow, she found it very cute and unbearable."Okay, okay. I'll stop making you angry."Sage knew she made Jace angry an

    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.

    "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.

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
