She gritted her teeth and said, "Show me the evidence! How dare you accuse me of something I'm not? I'll sue all of you for defamation! You'll be hearing from my lawyer, just you wait!"Gwyneth knew she could not stay any longer. She picked up her purse and reached for the door, but Sage’s men got in her way."Wait a minute, where do you think you're going, leaving and coming in as you wish?"

Look at your hands, they're so badly swollen," said Sage.Hunter felt embarrassed for Leah as Leah smiled naively. "That was my first time beating someone up. I have no idea either. But hey, that woman's face was ten times more swelled up than my hands!"Sage looked up at Leah. Although her hands were swollen, she was looking more alive and refreshed than ever.Hunter noticed that too, as though the gloomy clouds above her head finally disappeared, and her traumas were slowly recovering.Sage caressed her cousin's head, "Are you satisfied now?"Leah nodded happily.She leaned over her cousin's shoulders with ice on her hands as she spoke, "Sage, I hated that woman’s guts.

If it was someone else who told her that, Tilly would not believe them, but those words were coming from Seth.Scoffing bitterly, Tilly replied, "I am just a D-list celebrity with no connections whatsoever. I can't possibly cause any damage, and I'm well aware of that. Miss Sage, what about the second option?"Sage replied, "Take the time you need to recover, and I will have the best surgeon in town fix your face. The company will cover all of your medical expenses. As for Zane and Gwyneth, what goes around comes around, and karma will hit them hard when the time comes. As for you, I will make the arrangements if you want to terminate your contract or withdraw from the entertainment industry.""Or if you'd choose to still believe me and stay at Norah Entertainment, we will do our best to help you gain fame and popularity, but of course, you'd need to put in the effort, too. But at least, you wouldn't have to worry about not having any income," Sage added.Tilly stared blankly at Al

"You…" Yeva got up, went upstairs, and complained to Braxton, "Dad, did you hear what Sage said to me?""There, there."Comforting her daughter, Braxton looked at Sage with a face of scorn and said, "Sage, why are you being such a party pooper on a happy day like this?"Braxton then asked Yeva, "Have you given out your wedding invitations to Sage and Leah?""Oh, here they are."Yeva handed the invitations to Sage and Leah.

"Is it me who's gone mad, or are you guys the ones?""Dad, Gwyneth is not my mom. My mom is Ryleigh Tessa. Do you even remember her name? Or how she looks? Do you even remember how she ended up dead?"At the sight of Zane flinching after being frightened, Leah chuckled softly, but her laugh was filled with sarcasm and scorn.
