A Relentless Pursuit for Love Chapter 162
No one was more loyal than Finn Jansen. This was why Sage’s father took him under his wings, and why Sage transferred him back to her side three years ago. Hunter and Finn, both were her most capable and trustable assistants.However, both of them treated her in different ways.Hunter looked up to her as a boss. They were compatible as working partners, and Hunter was full of potential and capability. He would not stay an assistant forever, and she had plans to promote him in the future.As for Finn, he took her as a sister, or even like a master. He was definitely loyal, no doubt about that. But it could be blind loyalty, and he was often emotional. That was what caused him to leak her secret to Jace.Sage could understand, but she couldn’t forgive him. Therefore, Finn must serve his punishment. “You have not settled your mission and completed your project. I don’t need you here,” said Sage with a cold tone. “I need you to complete the task I gave you, and do your job. Underst

In the evening, Jace finally tasted the fish stew he unreasonably requested from Sage. It was absolutely delicious. The fish stew tasted refreshing and not at all fishy. Jace nodded in satisfaction and asked, “Did your boss make this?”It was Sage’s personal assistant who sent the soup. The young woman answered honestly, “No, this was from the restaurant in the lobby of our office building.”Looking at Jace’s disappointed expression, she added, “Miss Norah said she was too busy, and she had no time to make you the fish stew.”He was speechless. ‘That cold-blooded woman,’ thought he.Jace put down his bowl as the soup didn’t taste as delicious as before. He wiped his mouth and said, “Is she really that busy?”“Yes she is,” said the assistant, “She had a few conferences and didn’t get to have lunch. She’s still in the office right now. Not sure when she’ll be able to get off work.”Jace narrowed his brows.As the night fell, Sage had just ended her video conference. She said goodb

Sage remembered just this morning he had to be observed in the hospital for a few more days.“No,” said Jace as he turned off his screen and smirked, “I ran out from the hospital secretly.”‘Why does he sound so smug?’Sage was speechless. She gave Zayne the side-eye and asked, “Is this how you take care of your boss?”Zayne let out a dry laugh and said, “I can’t tell him what to do.”That was right. How could an employed staff discipline his stubborn boss?Sage signaled for the rest of her staff to go home and looked Jace in the eye. “Follow me.”“Where to?” Jace asked as he stood up.“You wanted my fish stew, yes?”Jace never would’ve thought he would be in the seafood bazaar with Sage.This was Salem City’s largest seafood bazaar, and it was bustling with crowds even in the evening. Sage hadn’t been here for a long time, but it was no strange place to her. She had changed into sneakers as the seafood bazaar could be quite muddy.This was Jace’s first time coming to such a

Sage frequented the Skye Hotel, but she was always in Room 88 and nowhere else.All the VIP rooms were very similar in style. The rooms were fully equipped. As they entered Jace’s room, Yoel had just done with his workout routine. While sweating profusely, Yoel walked toward the door with dumbbells still in his hands. He looked like he’d seen a ghost as Jace and Sage appeared together.“You’re out from the hospital? I thought you needed to stay for two more days?” This question was for Jace.“Why’d you come? Wow, you brought us so much food… You’re too kind.” Yoel rushed towards Sage to help with the bags, and he accidentally hit the live fish. Shocked, he took three steps back, eyes widened, “What’s going on? You’re cooking in here?”Sage looked at Yoel hazily and said, “Thought you said you wanted to taste my food?” She checked him out from head to toe, “I think you’d better stay off the food if you’re on a diet.”“No, I’ll eat!” Yoel hurriedly dropped his dumbbell and said, “

"Alright," both Jace and Yoel said in unison as they went over to help set the table.In an hour, Sage managed to make mac and cheese, braised ribs, grilled steaks, mashed potatoes, and crab cakes. Everything looked scrumptious."The fish stew will take a while longer. Let's just start now," Sage spoke as sweat dripped from her forehead. When Jace saw this, he took his handkerchief out and wanted to wipe it off for her. Her body froze, and she wanted to escape. Shaking the feeling off, Sage acted quickly, "I'll do it myself.""Allow me," Jace held on her wrist with one hand and wiped her forehead with another. He was not happy about not being able to have her homecooked meal as dinner, but at the same time, he felt guilty because he witnessed her working so hard on this meal. He felt that he should not trouble her so much."Thank you for your hard work," said Jace. Sage felt a little astounded and waved his hand away saying, "It's just a meal. Not a big deal."Yoel looked at them

That was a meal to remember.They talked about the turf club project and drafted the outline. They even made plans to visit the turf club once Jace was free to go.Sage and Jace were prepared to leave when they finished up all the food. Yoel looked at the dirty dishes in the sink and said angrily, "You guys are leaving all these to me?"That was crude.Sage looked back at Yoel and said, "Do you know how much I charge per session?" Yoel was taken aback and shook his head, "No?""Ten times more than Myles Damian, alright?" answered Sage."That's pricey... But it's something you totally deserve!" Yoel stuck up his thumb. "And did I charge you for the meal just now?” asked Sage, ignoring the fact that he was bootlicking. “Absolutely not!" Yoel quickly answered."That's right," replied Sage. "Is it that hard to wash the dishes in return?" she added.Yoel was dumbfounded. It sounded about right. He looked up and pointed at Jace, "Then why wasn't he asked to wash the dishes?"Jace ra

When Sage looked up, she saw a beautiful woman dressed haughtily with long silky hair. She had sunglasses on and intentionally looked down to hide her face. Yet, she was still easily recognizable.She had always been the hottest celebrity and talk of the town, Suki West. She was everywhere; anyone could spot her in the theatres and even at the airport. It was hard not to know who Suki West was.Suki was slightly taken aback when she realized it was Jace, but she quickly greeted him with a smile, "Hi, Mister Yuriel."Jace looked nervously at Sage, not intending to reply to Suki. He could not have Sage misunderstand the relationship between Suki and him again.Suki looked at Jace and followed in his eyesight's direction at Sage. Her face froze as she realized it was Sage. "It's you!" Her expression changed really fast. On top of that, she sounded offensive, it was a tone one could hardly miss.Sage calmly asked with a slight frown, "Do we know each other?"Women could sense the off

The bruises on his face had healed, and he looked as dapper as always.That day, he wore a casual suit: a pair of black slacks and a white shirt. He looked fresh and clean like a college kid with a vibrant personality. Sage, on the other hand, dressed in a black T-shirt with white-colored ripped jeans. Her shoulder-length hair split into two ponytails; she looked playful and cute.They did not discuss their outfits, yet coincidentally they dressed like a couple with matching clothes.Sage was distracted by all the various k

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.

"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..."
