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,
It was common knowledge that maintaining a business was even harder than starting a business. The truth was that Sawyer and Primrose had built a strong and sturdy empire, and there was no chance that it woul fail in the hands of someone like Sage. Sage visited the branch office at noon and had dinner with the general manager as well as higher management team. She reached her hotel quite late in the evening.Sage had quite a bit of the wine made locally in Ark Town, and it tasted slightly sweet. She had gotten a little tipsy, and her face was red as she got down from the car.Hunter assisted her down the car and held on to her bag while looking at her worriedly, "Miss Sage, you okay? Can you walk? Should I carry you into your room?"Hunter gave her his back, but Sage slapped his back and said, "Get up, I don't need you. I can walk, I'm not drunk."Hunter looked helpless and said quietly, "Drunkards never say they're drunk...""I'm really not drunk!" Sage was in a daze, but she st
Jace didn't scream it out loud, but it was clear enough that even the front desk staff and guests heard it. They raised their brows and were astounded at his words. They had heard of men gifting luxury bags, jewelry, and so on, but it was the first time they heard someone gifting a mansion in Salem City. After all, it was quite expensive to buy property in Salem City.Sage asked in an icy voice as she heard it, "Are you humiliating me?"Everyone was stunned at her words. Humiliated? If this was called humiliating, please humiliate them all! Everyone there was willing to accept all the humiliation Jace was willing to give!Jace frowned and said, "That wasn't my intention."Hunter looked at Sage's expression and knew she was about to lose it. She looked like she might even kill someone. He hurriedly took Sage away and said, "The elevator has arrived. Let's get in now…"Helena stood behind Jace as she watched Sage go up the elevator. She asked, "Mister Yuriel, I ask this out of cur
Hunter's heart skipped several beats, and he almost kneeled in front of Sage, "I'm so sorry, Miss Sage, I didn't do my job well. I'll go talk to the bodyguards right now! There won't be a next time!"Hunter was always sincere to admit his mistakes. Sage forgave him seeing as he went to get her honey, and most importantly, Leah liked him.Jace, on the other hand, was a pain in the neck for Sage. "Did he say he was going to buy me a mansion last night? Huh. What made him think that I would willingly stay in a house he bought? Do I look like I need a place to stay? What a joke!" thought Sage inwardly. As expected, Sage saw Jace and his staff again. Sage felt the need to explain once and for all so that he would stop disturbing her.Sage ignored Jace, grabbed Helena's arm, and said, "Helena, come to my car. Let's have a chat." Helena was overjoyed. After getting permission from Jace, she got into Sage's car happily.Sage's car was heading to Ark Mountains. She planned on going back
Jace froze for at least 30 seconds before processing everything. He tried to piece every detail, every suspicion, and every observation, and it finally came all together…Everything now made sense…No wonder he couldn't find any information from the hotel about Doctor S' stay. He thought maybe Sage wanted to hide Doctor S from him, and she did — she was hiding herself.Sage was Doctor S and Doctor S was Sage. Jace's pupils turned red from being aghast and angry at the same time. He curled up his fists as a reflex, and he was trembling all over. He felt a severe ache from his heart, and it was so painful that he bent down…"Mr. Yuriel, are you okay?" Zayne quickly helped him out.Jace's lips turned ghastly white. Sage lied to him again, and again, and again. Sage didn't care nor noticed Jace's reaction. She followed Jim to Dean's room to check on his leg. Looking at Jim's worried face, Sage said, "It's not a big issue. It's quite normal to feel pain after surgeries like these.
Sage walked out of Dean's ward and headed to the conference room to discuss about the paralyzed patient's case. As she walked out of the door, Jace stood frozen at the same location.He looked like he had just taken a beating. Sage glanced at him and looked away immediately. She did not want to care for him, so she headed her way. "Doctor S."He called her with a low and hoarse voice. He was even trembling a little as he spoke. Sage stopped walking. Oh, yes, she accidentally leaked her identity to him when she came here. Footsteps were heard behind her, and Jace walked slowly towards Sage and stood in front of her. His red eyes were staring intently at her.Jace looked ill. He slowly opened his mouth, and his voice asked dryly, "When were you planning to tell me the truth?" Sage looked up at him, expressionless.They were standing too close together. Sage was not used to it, so she took a step back to maintain a certain distance between them, just like he had done all those y
