Jace had a serious accident, and his family forbade him from ever driving again. They even had his license revoked.However, not long ago, Jace applied for a driving license again. Zayne was unsure what gave him the courage to drive again.At that moment, Zayne felt anything but courageous."Mister Yuriel, are you… Are you alright with driving?" Zayne trembled as he asked; he had no confidence in his boss' driving skills.Jace got into the driver's seat and buckled up the seatbelt. He turned to Zayne and replied coldly, "Do you want to give it a go?"Zayne smiled awkwardly and waved at his boss while secretly clutching the door tightly. "You can go."As soon as Jace started driving, it felt much smoother, and the roads seemed less rocky. Zayne thought it was all a coincidence, but he forgot that Jace was in the special forces and had to drive in various conditions.Driving off-road vehicles along mountain roads used to be a daily routine for them.…The car parked right at the
That was not the first time Jaxon came unannounced. Nevertheless, he still felt nervous.He knew that people in higher positions would tend to have an unpredictable temperament, and it was imperative to play in their favor. Jaxon used to hate the industry for its ugliness and filth. There was a dark and ugly side to all the beautiful and successful celebrities on screen. Eventually, Jaxon became one of them—the ones he pledged to never be.That was because he would rather have that short-lived fame rather than be an unappreciated anonymous his whole life."Keep an open mind. There's a price to pay if you want to be famous. It's just business," Mister Don once told him while patting his cheeks.Jaxon scrubbed every inch of his body to ensure he was clean, but his heart was polluted long ago. He laughed at himself as he thought of a quote from a teen movie.'People will eventually turn into the person they hate the most.'Jaxon was willing to give it all for a taste of success.
"Is that so? Oh right, I nearly forgot." Jaxon tried to divert the topic by saying, "Miss Sage, it's getting late. Do you want to take a shower or…"Sage abruptly cut him off, "You started as a stunt double in the entertainment industry, is that right?""Yeap…" Jaxon was getting impatient. He was not particularly proud of his past as a stunt double for it only reminded him of his lowly days. Yet, he could not afford to displease Sage in any way, so he replied truthfully.He remained patient and continued to smile at Sage, "Miss Sage, time flies by during good times. Why don't we...Sage continued, "Was it fun being a stunt double?"The smile on Jaxon's face disappeared as he answered, "Nope."What was her catch?Sage asked again, "You must be quite nimble, right?"Jaxon answered, "I'm alright."When would she stop asking these questions?Sage asked him again, "Did you push Dean down the hill?"Jaxon replied, "Yes."There was a long silence in the room. Jaxon subconsciousl
Sage looked up to see that Sunny and Jaxon had not left. Wondering why, she looked out. To her sight, she realized that it was Jace that stood in their way at the entranceShe frowned slightly and thought to herself, 'Why is he everywhere I go?'She put the laptop aside and stood up. Sage walked towards the exit and said with a displeased tone, "Why haven't the two of you left? Are you staying for dinner?"She sounded extremely cold and impatient. "We're leaving now, goodbye, Miss Sage." Sunny smiled and nudged Jaxon to hurry. The used towel was left by the door, and Jace was extremely furious while looking at it.He gritted his teeth, and veins popped out of his forehead. His voice was laced with ice when he spoke, "Since when did you start to have unspoken rules?"Unspoken rules?Sage was dumbstruck, but she quickly understood what he meant. The situation could be easily taken out of context, but Sage didn't bother to explain herself to Jace."What's that got to do with you?"
Sage kept her cool no matter what Jace asked. "So what if it is? What if it isn't?"Jace compressed his thin lips and said, "I want to meet Doctor S."Sage was speechless. Was he deaf?Sage almost lost it. "You can meet her anytime you want. I'm not stopping you, and you don't need to ask for my permission, not to mention asking for my help!" Jace blocked her once again as she tried to close the door the third time. She kicked him in the leg. While he scowled in pain, she slammed the door close loudly.He was completely healed. Sage kicked him hard with no mercy. Him wanting to meet Doctor S? Not a chance!Meanwhile, Jaxon, on the other hand, stayed wide awake throughout the entire night. He slept on a huge bed in a luxury room, and his dreams were finally coming true. He should be sleeping soundly, but he couldn't stop thinking about Dean falling down the hill with blood all over his leg and Sage's death stare.He was right; Sage came to seek vengeance. Sage wasn't intereste
The hospital wasn't too far away from the production set. Dean could even be seen walking out of the hospital in crutches when Sage arrived.His agent Ryan and his assistants were persuading him to stay, but he couldn't be stopped. Jim carried his black backpack and stood near Dean. He knew he had no way of stopping his brother, so he decided to follow him closely to take care of him.Everyone kept quiet as Sage appeared. "Miss Sage!" They all greeted her with relief. Their savior was finally here!Sage walked over and behind her leaving a flock of bodyguards in her wake, which looked terrifying. “Miss Sage,” Jim greeted her as he thought she was going to take his brother down.Sage did. Dean deserved to be punished for not listening to his doctor, but he cooled down after he saw Sage.She gave Dean a once-over and said, "Not bad at all, you're recovering well since you're able to get down from the bed so quickly."Dean could hear the mockery in her tone. He compressed his lips a
Sage turned to Ryan and instructed him, "You can release the news of Dean getting hurt during the shoot now. You can also announce that his role has been replaced. As for the reason, please keep that a secret for now."Ryan was going to ask more, but Sage was already probably five steps ahead of him. He had some concerns to share, so he said. "I'm worried that some of his fans might overreact about this and blame you instead. What are we going to do about that?""Let them be."Sage said, "I'm not afraid of keyboard warriors, it doesn't affect me. Plus, they'll find out the truth in a few days. Their target will be a different person by then."Jim still listened in on everything quietly even though he didn't understand how everything worked in the industry. Overall, he picked up on what Sage's intention was — she was definitely trying to make a scene.Xavier immediately got on a plane when he received the news about his new gig. Though he was a blabbermouth, he was also great at ma
"This is not a place to talk business. May I treat you to a cup of coffee?" Helena asked Sage politely. Truth to be told, Helena was dumbfounded upon knowing that Sage was the world-renowned Jade Master. She called her good friend Ada to verify, and Ada was still trying to hide it.She reprimanded Ada for being dishonest. How could she do that to her?!Ada was feeling helpless. Her boss, Sage, was a person who kept an extremely low profile, and Helena shouldn't blame her for doing her job. Helena should just blame Jace for not being able to keep Sage as his wife. He was stupid and blind for letting her go.Helena never would've thought the person she admired the most was in fact closer than she thought. She kept staring longingly at Sage. Zayne looked at her with disgust and reminded her to act normal for the sake of the company image. From another perspective, one could see that she was about to drool in admiration."You're Ada's classmate, and by right I should honor your wishes,
