After signing the divorce paper, Sage had disappeared without a trace from Nadeem City. No one expected her to show herself again in this manner.It was too… cool. Yoel was stunned by Sage. He smiled, and he could not take his eyes off her. How could a man deny a charismatic lady?Even Jace, who had always had a poker face even when faced with the collapse of the world, found his mask slipping. Jace was surprised to find that Sage knew how to fly a helicopter. Under the heated stare of the crowd, Sage walked straight toward Freya and crouched down by her side. Sage who gave off an imposing vibe suddenly softened."Mom, I was worried sick about you. Please don't do this again."Freya who was known for being stubborn and domineering had a sudden shift in attitude the moment she saw Sage. Holding Sage's hands in hers, she exclaimed in surprise, "Dearest, I was worried about you, too! How do you know how to fly such a dangerous thing?""A rooftop is an unsafe place for you to be
Seeing Sage about to leave with Freya, Sienna panicked. She pointed at Sage and yelled, "I know now! It must be you! You are the one who set me up!""Sienna Zelda," said Jace seriously. "Don't accuse someone based on groundless speculations."Hearing Jace address her in a formal manner and seeing him implicitly take Sage's side terrified Sienna. She felt like she was about to lose him for good.Sienna did not think that she had accused Sage without any evidence. It was obvious to her that she had been the target of some vicious plot, and it was the reason why her wedding had turned out the way it did. It had not been long since her return to Nadeem City, and she was unable to recall if she had made any enemies. The only feud she had was with Sage Luz. Plus, the garish manner in which Sage had arrived only furthered her suspicions that Sage was here to steal Jace. "Sage Luz, one should be responsible for their own doings. Do you not have the guts to admit them?" Pointing at Sag
A bolt of lightning split the dark blue sky. Almost as if the lightning had struck her, the crown resting atop her head fell to the ground.It started raining. The crowd had slowly dispersed and Sienna looked as if she had her soul sucked out of her body. Staring at Jace who was walking away from her without even a backward glance, Sienna felt despair.The man who had always shielded her from all danger had finally left her.Sienna had finally regretted her decision to break up with Jace. She had finally realized the price she had to pay for all her bad and impulsive decisions throughout the three years that she had spent abroad. …The chaotic wedding ceremony had finally come to an end in the heavy rain.Even though the guests did not get to witness the happy and perfect wedding that they had come to see, they managed to watch a good show and felt that the entire thing had been worth their time. The Yuriel family was not badly affected as they had desperately wished for the w
Since Sage had come to save Freya, she decided to help her till the end. Sage decided to send Freya home personally. Sitting in the car that belonged to the "newlyweds", Sage found the situation ludicrous.Sage mocked herself for going to such lengths as Jace's ex-wife.It was an extended Lincome with enough car seats to accommodate both Faye and Zachary. As soon as Zachary boarded the car, he started firing questions at Sage."Sage, where have you been? We've been looking for you everywhere, and Jace had gone through every CCTV recording that he could get his hands on. But he just couldn't find you.""Sage, did you really fly the helicopter by yourself? I didn't know you know how to fly one! When did you get the license? Why didn't you tell us? Can we have a ride, too?"Sage smiled gently and replied, "Of course, but it's raining today, and I don't think we should fly it. Next time perhaps?""Yay! You're the best, Sage!"Jace took a glance at Zachary who was acting all excite
The moment Sage mentioned Sawyer Norah's name, everyone in the family was stunned.One of Jace's uncles jolted to his feet and said, "What did you say? Sawyer Norah is your dad?"Jace had his brows furrowed tightly together.Although it had been almost three years since the passing of Sawyer Norah, his reputation still preceded him. His brilliant and unprecedented legacy survived his passing, staying alive till this very day. Sawyer was considered a genius in the business industry.Within only half a year, Sawyer had built up the Norah Group to be the most influential company in Salem City. A year after he founded Norah Jewel, the business was listed as one of the top companies in the jewel industry and had been in a fierce rivalry with Yuriel Jewel. Within the span of three years, Norah Jewel had triumphed over Yuriel Jewel and had secured an official partnership with DT, the diamond trading company. A year after that, Norah Jewel had been selected as the official supplier for t
Why in the world did she choose to marry him?Jace did not need Sage to prove anything as throughout the years, everyone in the Yuriel family had witnessed and experienced firsthand how Sage had behaved. She took good care of her husband, her mother-in-law, and she was respectful to the elders in the family. One could say that she was the perfect daughter-in-law.Both his grandparents did not begin to dislike Sage after finding out that she was a Norah. Looking at Sage, Jace's grandfather said, "Sage, please do not take to heart what Jace's uncle has said. He did so because he is still nursing the defeat he suffered at the hands of your father, and his reaction has nothing to do with you. The feud between the Norah and Yuriel family is past us, and it is normal for businesses to compete with each other. Don't be too hurt by it, okay?"Jace's grandmother held Sage's hands in hers and added gently, "We know who you really are, Sage. You've brought happiness to all of us throughout t
"I'm sorry."Before Jace even realized it, the words had slipped out of his mouth, but he did not find them inappropriate.Sage had taken care of him for three years, but there was not a day when he had actually cared for her. He had even hurt her for another woman. Hence, he did owe her an apology.Those two words startled Sage. Sage knew Jace like the back of her hand. She knew that he was short-tempered and stubborn. It was definitely strange for him to suddenly apologize to her.All this while, she had been waiting for him to tell her he loved her, and instead, he had offered her an apology. Sage mocked herself silently. With a straight face, she replied, "Apology accepted."She then turned around and got into the car.Her nonchalant attitude seemed to hint that she no longer had any lingering feelings toward him.'Has she really stop having feelings for me?'Sage's assistants had filed into the car after her, and they were ready to leave.Just when the car started, Ja
Under the umbrella, two men stared at each other, studying each other's expressions.They were once good partners in the business industry, but now, they were each other's rivals."You guys are not suited to be together," Jace replied definitively.Yoel simply shrugged and replied, "How can you be sure if I don't try? Besides, you don't even know her. What makes you think that we're not suited for each other? Mind you, I was the one who informed you about her real identity."Yoel cut Jace to the quick. Every sentence was like a knife that pierced Jace's heart. Jace squinted and said, "She's not the type that you could play around with.""I know, and this is exactly why I'm going to sincerely pursue her."Yoel adjusted his stance, looked where Sage had been, and said, "At first, I was worried that she'd still have feelings for you, but by the looks of it, I must be overthinking it. Sage seems the type who would be able to move on quickly once she has made up her mind. She's more
