A Relentless Pursuit for Love Chapter 240
Sage and the other two were waiting in Room Elegante for a while before Sean showed up.Suki and Dean both got up to greet the latecomer but were stunned upon seeing the man who walked in. They had been both aware that Sean was young and successful, but they had no idea that he was so good-looking.Sean wore a striped suit. He was 1.8 meters tall with chin-length wavy hair and a pair of gold-framed glasses sitting on top of his nose bridge. Curling around his wrist was a Lorex watch. He had a typical look for a young urban professional."Apologies for the long wait. I’m late because of the traffic today."Sean's voice sounded low, which made his apologies sound solemn."Don't worry about it," said Suki and Dean whilst Sage said, "The meatballs are getting cold, Mister Chester!"Sean's face loosened up immediately as he took his suit off and said in a casual tone, "Let's dig in then, your meatballs are the only reason I came all the way from Brown City to Salem City!"Sage snappe

"How about this, Dean and I will excuse ourselves while you guys carry on."Sage was about to get up and leave along with Dean when Suki stopped her. "There's no need. I have nothing to hide from you guys," Suki said.Suki was someone who had been through ups and downs. So, she easily composed herself within a blink of an eye before continuing.Suki then answered Sean, "Yes."Without a change of expressions, Sean pressed on, "Did he succeed?""No, I called his wife. She arrived in time and beat me up before leaving the scene," Suki answered with a straight face.Sage bit her lips and cracked her knuckles, making a crisp crackling sound. Her eyes were filled with rage.'That f*cking *sshole!' Sean nodded lightly as he continued, "Has Lionel attempted to pimp you out to other men before?""Yes."What else was there to hide anyway?"Not too long ago, Lionel had to look for a new advertising company to work with as the partnership with the Yuriel Group did not go through. As a

No female celebrity who managed to climb to fame had a pure heart.It was impossible to survive without having some tricks up one's sleeve for self-protection.Suki knew and prepared herself for the worst. However, she was extremely cautious as once news like that got out, her whole career would go down the drain."Pass me the videos, I'll take care of it," Sean responded calmly.Suki was hesitant. "Mister Chester, once I give you the videos, there'll be no turning back for me. Are you certain you can terminate the contract?""As long as you're honest with me, everything will go as planned," Sean said confidently. Once the video was sent to Sean, he got up and said to Sage before leaving. "There's still some wine left in the bottle, please seal it for me to go."Sage ordered the staff to pack the wine as she said to Sean, "My brother has a pretty low tolerance, please watch out for him.""I can't watch out for him."Sean took a drag of his cigarette and chuckled lightly befor

Jim's eyes sparkled in anticipation and responded timidly, "I shouldn't, I'm afraid Master would kill me if he hears that…""Who is higher in seniority, me or your Master?" Sage asked."You, of course.""That's right, I have your back. Don't be intimidated by him." Sage took another sip of the tea.Jim smiled brightly and said, "Alright then, Miss!"The way Jim said miss sounded so gentle and pleasing to the ears. Anyone would be easily charmed by that.Sage had many older brothers and two younger cousins; not a single younger brother. Having a younger boy showing her respect and treating her like an older sister felt pretty refreshing."Miss, what's your relationship with my brother?"Jim asked as he sat aside and continuously poured and served Sage with tea."Your brother is going to be working as a signed artist under my company," Sage explained calmly."Oh, I see."Jim frowned and said, "Dean was in a pretty bad mood a while back, like something had been bothering him.

Being with someone younger really would make one feel youthful.Sage was laughing a lot on her way home. As she stepped into the Rosa Garden, she felt her steps becoming lighter.It was getting late, most helpers aside from the night shifters had already gone to bed. The walls were thin in the house. Sage took off her heels and walked bare feet up the stairs. A tiny figure was seen sitting in front of her room as she got up the stairs.Yeva had already moved out today, so it could only be Leah.Why did Leah fall asleep in that spot though?"Leah."Sage walked towards her and patted lightly on her shoulder. Leah picked her head up from her folded arms and looked at Sage. Dazed, she asked, "Sage, you're home."Leah tried to pick herself off the ground but sat back down immediately because her legs had gotten numb from the awkward position she was in. Sage had to hold her as she stood up to balance herself.Sage frowned lightly. "Why are you waiting for me, is there something yo

Wolves were spotted often in that forest; police assumed that the body had been taken away by the wolves. Since they had only managed to find some torn fabric along with some blood stains that had proven to be Sage's after the DNA test, they concluded their search.Leah could not and would not believe that. She almost flipped the whole forest inside out looking for Sage; she wanted to see the body with her own eyes, dead or alive.Leah's feet were filled with wounds and blisters. She eventually passed out in the forest due to a high fever from the infections that were festering in the wounds.Even though Sage's body was never found, her father and Uncle Braxton rushed to hold the funeral just so they could get a share of the assets that were left to Sage by Uncle William."I've given you the title of CEO already, and now you're trying to have the Rosa Garden all to yourself? You can't just take everything and not share. That's selfish!" Zane slammed the table as he exclaimed grudgi

Leah was stunned upon hearing all of that.She stared at Sage, wide-eyed. "So… Why haven't you…?""Why haven't I sent them to jail?"Sage predicted what Leah was going to say. The corner of her mouth curved into a cold smile. "They don't deserve a quick death. Torturing them before their eventual death should be the real agony, isn't it?"Leah stared blankly at Sage. She felt chills shoot through from the bottom of her feet all right to her heart, and down her spine."So… You've always known that your father wasn't the Norahs' biological son and that Yeva and I… aren't your biological cousins?"Sage looked up at Leah. "Is that really all that matters to that so-called family? Being blood-related?"Braxton and Zane were envious of my father and eventually killed him because they found out they weren't biological brothers. On the other hand, they've taken my father's inheritance in the name of being his brothers."Sage chuckled in disdain and continued, "They're the prime examp

Leah nodded shyly.After a pause, Leah asked in uncertainty, "So, about my father and Uncle Braxton…""Soon."Sage's eyes darkened. "They'll pay for what they’ve done. But before that, I still need to look for someone. That's within the family, and we'll settle that in the down low."There was no way that they would have it that easy.They had to suffer first.…Sean Chester really was an impressive lawyer.Lionel eventually caved. He had to use the money he got from Dean and Suki's liquidated damages to pay for the money he owed to his taxes, and got himself probation.Sage had also compromised on her side. Lionel was willing to let Dean and Suki go, and in return, Sage let his son, Brody off. Brody was bailed and returned to freedom.As for Missus Liam, she gave up and abandoned her husband. Once their son, Brody was bailed out of jail, she flew out of the country with him to wait for things to quiet down.Starship Entertainment had now lost two of its biggest artists at o

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.

The next morning, Sage, Jace, and Dean went to the basketball arena for the World Championships after breakfast.It was the men's basketball world championship, where their country's basketball team was up against another country. By the time they got to the arena, many people were in the audience.The staff guided Sage and the group to their designated seat in the family section.As soon as Dean sat down, someone next to him called out his name. Dean seemed unsurprised by this. He even smiled and waved at them. After that, he gestured for them to be polite and silent. It was not Dean's first time watching his younger brother's basketball game live. Many of his fans knew that Dean's younger brother was playing on the national team. They especially came over to get closer to him. Some were Jim's fans too. They knew Dean was Jim's brother, so they would greet him.After listening to Dean's explanation, Sage's businessman side as the owner of Norah Entertainment appeared again."If

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..." 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
