She gave Nigel an understanding look and carried Puffy upstairs.Nigel blushed. He watched as Sage went upstairs, then turned to Sean and bickered, "Sage is still around. Be mindful of your words…"…The night passed silently.Sage got up and freshened up herself. Then, she walked downstairs with careful steps. She did not want to wake Nigel and Sean up and thought of making breakfast for them.She was surprised to hear some noises in the kitchen as soon as she went downstairs. Sean was already up and was frying some eggs.Sean heard the movement behind him and turned slightly. "You’re up so early?""Yeah. Good morning." Sage greeted him and strode into the kitchen. Sage had only seen Sean in the image of a lawyer in a suit. It was the first time seeing him in home clothes and an apron. Sean did not wear his glasses either. He looked very gentle in his homely appearance.He skillfully put the fried eggs on the plate and asked Sage, "Did you sleep well last night?"Sage nod

Nigel and Sage rushed to the hospital. Upon arriving at the door, they saw the nurse walking out of the ward with Lulu, who was covered in blood.She was injured by sharp objects in many places, including her back, calf, and ankle. Her white T-shirt was stained with blood. The glass fragments stuck on her calf looked appalling. Nigel’s usually warmed face changed greatly. He took a few steps forward and asked, "What’s wrong? What happened to her?" Sage furrowed her brows tightly and said in a low voice, "Hurry up and send her to the emergency room."The ward was a mess. The side lamp, bowls, and vase shards were all blood-stained. Asher was also injured, but not as badly as Lulu.The nurse explained to them. It was Lulu who rushed over in time and stopped Asher. She hugged him, but as a result, she was crushed to the floor and was injured all over.There was a loud quarrel in the morning. A loud crash followed after that. No one knew what was going on.Sage was angry seeing Lu

Asher's current situation was almost the same as Jace’s situation before. Back then, Jace had a period of extreme impatience. He was filled with anger and treated everyone as enemies.The closest ones would be the ones who would be hurt most.Sage thought that things would turn better after hard days that were finally over. Who knew that it was the beginning of the worst. There was nothing but darkness after the hardest days.Sage was about to say something with an icy face. Then, a soft voice came from behind her."If he tries to move impatiently in the future, tie him up and don’t spoil him. He’s a strong man. You should rather hurt him than yourself."Sage turned back and saw Jace’s indifferent face. As their eyes met, Sage’s face turned icier. Then, she looked away, took off her medical gloves, and went to the bathroom to wash her hands.Looking at Lulu's injuries, Jace’s eyes turned a little gloomy."Asher is worried about you and told me to check on you."The girl who alm

When Sage came out from the ward, she saw Jace sitting on the bench outside the ward. He was holding a thin cigarette in his hand, but it was not lit.He sat there with a stiff expression like he almost froze there.The door to the ward was not closed earlier. Perhaps, he had overheard her conversation with Lulu. Then, he must have overheard the four words she said. The two looked at each other. In just a split second, Sage moved her gaze and marched straight forward. Jace squeezed the cigarette and trembled a little. His throat felt dry.He could only blame himself, so he shut his eyes and cursed himself.… Sage headed to Asher's ward. She could hear Yoel yelling at Asher even from a distance."Hey, tell me. What are you doing? Are you an idiot? Did you lose your mind?"Do you think your injury isn’t serious enough? Do you want to hurt yourself again? If you don’t want to live anymore, tell me. I’ll kill you and cut your neck at once. I will guarantee you a quick and easy

Sage’s tone did not change as she emphasized the important points."Asher, listen. If you don’t want to stay with Lulu, break up with her properly. Don’t keep changing the way you treat her. Are you a chameleon?"That child is sensitive, especially when she’s so in love with you. Your actions and emotions will affect her easily. You don’t have to love her, but you can’t hurt her. Understand?" Yoel was stunned for a moment. Meanwhile, Asher lowered his head and was lost in his thoughts.Sage spoke too much and was a little tired as she waved her hand. "Forget it. I should mind my own business, so just do what you like. However, you’re my patient, and I still have the final say on your health."She threatened coldly, "If this happens again, you can expect to die. I put so much effort into treating you. Are you going to take it lightly?"Asher was lost for words.Sage left immediately after she gave him a warning. Yoel gulped and said to Asher, "Don’t take her for granted. She’s

It was already evening when Sage got off the plane. There was a twilight and the sky was rather bright.Sage slept on the whole journey home. When she disembarked the plane, it was already evening. The twilight was dazzling. She stretched her stiff neck and listened to Hunter talking on the phone with Leah behind her in a gentle tone. “Have you completed the discharge procedure? My dear Leah, you’re so capable… Yeah. We’ve got off the plane. We’ll go to the hospital directly to pick you up… Do you miss me? I miss you, too…"They were so lovey-dovey that Sage could not bear to listen to them.Sage witnessed Nigel and Sean’s loving moments in Brown City. Since she returned to Salem City, she had to watch her assistant and cousin flirt with each other.The lonely and single Sage felt tired watching all those lovebirds.Hunter hung up the phone and hurried forward to tell Sage a few words about Wayne’s situation."Leah said that Grandpa Wayne is recovering well. Jim goes to the h

Sage glanced at him. "Are you not planning to accumulate your wealth and marry Leah soon? Don’t say I haven’t given you a chance. If you want to be my in-law, you have to be more than just an assistant.""I understand. Haven’t you noticed that I’ve been working very hard recently?"Hunter followed Sage and continued, "I’ve just gotten into a relationship with Leah. Are you willing to see us separate right after we start dating?"Sage glanced at him, "I’m not trying to separate you. Besides, Norah Jewel will be opening a branch in North City. Ada will be going over and taking the lead. I plan to transfer Leah there, too."Hunter tried to curry favor with Sage and praised her with flattery. "Oh, so you've got everything planned. You’re so thoughtful, Sage. Thank you!"Sage glared at him. "Tsk. Stop it."Hunter must have learned that from Yoel. Sage simply blamed Yoel for it.They walked out of the airport and unexpectedly met a group of unwelcome people. Lucas, Luna, and Sienna
A Relentless Pursuit for Love Chapter 404
Sage’s sarcasm made Sienna burn in anger.Sienna always assumed that she could easily pester Sage as she liked. Perhaps it was because of her first impression of Sage.Since Sage gave off the impression of a friendly and soft person during their first meeting, Sienna never learned her lesson.Even Luna was furious at Sage. She cursed, "Heh! She’s from the Norah family, but she’s so rude! It's no wonder Jace divorced and disowned her."The last part was directed at Lucas. Lucas did not answer her. Instead, he said solemnly, "Don’t fight Sage again. You won’t beat her."Then, he pulled his arm away from Luna’s hand and got into the car first. Luna stared at Lucas’s back and felt a little lost. Somehow, she felt uneasy.It was not the first time he had pushed her away. She wondered if she was getting too old for him. Somehow, it felt harder to keep his love…"Luna, what did Uncle Spencer say? Why can’t we beat Sage? If you didn’t stop me earlier, I would’ve given her a slap!"

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?'

"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.
