"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

    Jace left after acting weird and saying things Sage couldn't understand.Sage compressed her lips as she recalled his words.Was he really here to repay her kindness? Why did it sound like he was seeking vengeance instead?Sage genuinely thought that they shouldn't see each other anymore. She'd be the most grateful if he could keep his distance. Her day was always ruined every time Jace appeared.He was such an annoying idiot.Sage had a meeting at the head of the hospital's office with her team of medical professionals, so she did not think too much into everything. She texted Nigel right after the meeting as she was worried that he was busy. [I've gone through the patient's file. We can go ahead with the surgery.]Right when the message went through, she immediately received a video call request. She answered it, and a wild face appeared on her screen. Sage almost couldn't recognize the messy-haired, unshaved man with dark circles around his eyes. She frowned instantly, "

    Sage looked doubtfully at Nigel, "Did you do this on purpose? Pretending to look pitiful so I would help you?"Nigel cared about his appearance as much as Luther, always trying to look his best at all times. Why would he ever show anyone his unkempt side? It didn't make sense to either of them.Now Sage knew that he was trying to use her…Nigel admitted and grinned, "You've always been a clever girl."Sage was speechless. All of her brothers, except for her eldest brother, were abnormal."Let's get into it," said Sage. She briefly explained the situation about the patient. "This patient possibly sustained some external injuries that hurt his spinal cord, or there may be a tumor pressing the spinal cord that might be causing him to be paralyzed from the waist down. Luckily, he isn't completely paralyzed yet and there is a cure. "I read his file and it said that he used to be in the special forces of the military, so he is quite fit.""Okay," Nigel said. "Not just that. I heard f

    Sage saw Jim walking out of the ward with his backpack on when she was coming out of the office. He carefully closed the door behind and puffed with huge relief like he had just went through something difficult.Sage felt at ease when she saw him and called his name, "Jim." Jim turned his head and was met with a beautiful smile, "Miss Sage, are you done with your meeting?""Yes," Sage looked at his expressions, "What's going on?"Jim was stunned at Sage's wonderful observational skills. He pointed in the direction of the ward and signaled for them to walk away.They walked out together. Right when they reached the elevator, Jim admitted something, "My brother found out about my part-time job and I got a scolding from it."Sage gave him a look of disapproval before he quickly defended her. "Oh, I didn't tell him about you being my Grandmaster. I'll never spill your secrets without your permission."After finding out that Sage is a doctor, Dean might not be able to handle the fact

    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.

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.

    "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.

    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.
