"You prepared all these?"Studying the young lad in front of him, Yoel found it hard to believe.He still recalled the last time he tried Jim's beef lasagna, he thought that Jim's cooking still had room for improvement. However, Yoel nearly thought that today's dishes were prepared by Chef Damian.It had not been a long time but Jim surprisingly improved a lot.Pressing his lips tightly together, Yoel started picking on Jim. "The meatballs… are a bit dry and it's quite tough to chew on. And the lasagna? The cheese isn’t enough and it should be baked longer for it to be crispier on the top…"Yoel started giving a bunch of comments but he was simply nitpicking. He only stopped commenting when he felt Sage's cold stare on him.Staring coldly at Yoel, Sage said, "Do you know how our restaurant treats customers like you?"Yoel shook his head.Sage replied, "Get the hell out if you don't like our food."Yoel was rendered speechless.Can they treat customers this way?Yoel, of cour
Sage's eyes widened upon hearing the word 'grandpa'. "Grandpa will be attending your wedding? Who told you that?"Seeing how excited Sage got, Yeva became conceited. She hummed proudly, "I'm grandpa's biological granddaughter; of course, he's coming to my wedding! I've sent my wedding invitation to him, and he has accepted it. He's definitely coming to wish me on my happiest day."Sage was about to ask more questions, but Yeva just wanted to wrap things up. "Anyway, I have a ton of things to do. We'll talk again soon. You should definitely come to the wedding with Leah. I might even throw my bouquet toward your direction if I feel like it!" Yeva said proudly and hung up the phone immediately.Sage sat up straight.Sage had announced her 'Jade Master' title for almost half a month, and Wayne had yet to say anything about it. Will he really attend Yeva's wedding?That old man had never been a fan of such public events.Sage called Hunter and had him track Wayne's whereabouts. Hunte
Yeva and Julian's wedding was held in the Regal Grove Resort under the Jefferson Group.The Jeffersons were considered somewhat of an upper class in Salem City. A Jefferson son's wedding would naturally be grand. On top of that, it was a wedding between two powerful families. Julian's father, Wilson Jefferson, was extremely happy since he could now make use of Yeva and Braxton to take down the Norahs.The wedding was more or less a business banquet since Wilson had invited all the important people of Salem City as guests. He wanted to seize the chance to push the Jeffersons' fame onto a new level.The Jeffersons were one step away from becoming the richest family in Salem City!To Wilson's surprise, the eldest son of the Yuriel Family from Nadeem City and the youngest son of the Fulton family from Riverside City are also attending the wedding.Even though the Jeffersons were not that familiar with the two families, they had still decided to attend. Wilson was ecstatic, and he felt
Wilson was pissed. However, he could not risk offending them, so he sucked it up and smiled politely as he led the way. "This way please."Wilson wondered what Sage's relationship was with Jace and Yoel.They seemed to care so much about her.The seating arrangement was very particular; it was obvious that there was a hierarchy.People with a higher title sat in front while those who were not as important sat behind and by the entrances. Even the food and beverage served differ from each other; it was an unpleasant sight.Jace and Yoel sat at the front, of course; Sage and Leah, however, were seated by the door.Sage was alright with it since the reason she came was to witness a drama unfold. Being seated at the back meant she got to see more of it. She sat down satisfyingly along with Leah.Jace and Yoel were displeased.The reason they came to the wedding was just so they could spend more time with Sage and nothing else.However, now that they were so far apart, how were the
Sage arrived backstage and was greeted by nobody.She frowned in disappointment.A light gray suit and a smoking pipe were Grandpa's signature items. Sage was certain it was him.Grandpa did come after all, but why did he leave before the wedding ceremony ended?He could have at least come to see her, or so she thought.Jace caught up with her and was stunned upon seeing Sage. Her expression was of a helpless child.Sage's perky nose was curled up, and her lips pursed… What happened?"What's going on? Did you see a ghost?" Yoel finally caught up and said while panting. Jace shut him up with a glare.Sage ignored them completely. She stood there without saying a single word whilst looking around for the figure to return but was greeted with disappointment."Miss Sage!"Hunter ran backstage in a hurry and was stunned by the two men standing by the entrance. He walked over to Sage calmly after catching his breath.Hunter whispered in Sage's ears, "Mister Wayne did go back to hi
Yeva's lips pursed into a straight line. Her eyes traveled back from the big screen before her.She stood on the stage with a darkened face, glaring at Sage from a distance.How could Sage wander around during such an important ceremony and almost cause a distraction? She was always trying to steal Yeva's spotlights.'I'm the only main character today. No one is allowed to steal my spotlight!' Yeva thought to herself.The photo slideshow finally came to an end, and the emcee finished her speech about fate and whatnot, concluding it with the couple being childhood sweethearts and how their marriage had been decided by the cupid since the beginning.Leah listened quietly, but her mind was elsewhere.Sage and Julian were supposed to be the real childhood sweethearts since Julian always used to follow Sage around, while Yeva tailed behind Sage and Julian, unwelcomed by the pair.Yeva took the mic away from the emcee and narrated her own stories of how she and Julian met and how they
Queenie's single sentence had managed to shock a hall full of people to their core.Julian strode down the stage and across the hall with a face of surprise as he exclaimed, "Queenie, you're pregnant?!"Queenie hummed yes as she smiled sweetly as if she had fallen in love for the first time. She took out the report and showed Julian. "The baby is yours, it's four weeks old now."Julian stared at the report and thought deeply. "Was it from that night when we were in the car?"Queenie nodded shyly.They looked like a couple who were in their honeymoon phase, as if there were pink hearts and bubbles surrounding the air between them, whilst the lone shadow of the bride on the stage looked desolate.Yeva had invited some media reporters to the wedding just to create some traction. The reporters were uninterested at first. They only came because it was advertised as the 'Wedding of the Century', but were utterly let down upon arriving at a mediocre ceremony. They came all the way just
Yoel laughed and said, "What an epic wedding, the opening was a romance drama, and it escalated into those absurd family television dramas. It finally ended with a comedy… Tsk tsk, what an interesting journey filled with plot twists."He then looked at Sage and said, "What a talented cousin you have there."Sage could not agree more.Yoel looked over at Jace and said, "The amount of chaos and drama in this wedding is almost as good as yours. It's definitely worth coming."Jace glared coldly at him, wishing he could sew Yoel's lips up.Sage looked up and smiled. "Isn't that right? Mister Jace's wedding was so unforgettable, the memories were still fresh in my mind."Jace gulped as if his throat had been shot by a bullet, he looked down without saying anything.Sage did not expect a response from him. She waved goodbye and left the scene along with Leah.Inside the car, Leah seemed to have not calmed down from the chaos earlier, as she was still stunned.Sage looked at her and a
