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

'To be my friend?'Sage tugged at the corner of her lips, supported her head with her hands, and replied, "Hmm…let's see. You're twenty-seven this year, and you're of Romani descent. Your father trained all your siblings harshly except for you. He adored and pampered you. He'd keep you by his side and educate you. You were kidnapped at nine, and you almost lost your life. Your father mobilized his entire clan to save you, and you were able to return home unscathed. But, your seven brothers were not so lucky. Some were hurt, and some had even died during that mission. All to save you." Unfazed, Yoel broke into a grin. "You looked me up online? It seems to me Miss Sage, you are rather interested in me."He was about to move closer to Sage when she continued, "You first had sex when you were sixteen. You did it with a French woman who was five years older than you. Since then, you have only dated older women. At eighteen, you were known as a notorious philanderer— changing partners li

After leaving his grandfather's house, Jace returned to the Yuriel Mansion.The mansion was filled with wedding decorations, and Jace found them to be a pain to look at. He quickly ordered his butler to remove the decorations.There were tons of missed calls from Sienna, but Jace had no intentions of dealing with her and turned off his phone instead.Taking off his coat and draping it over his arm, he was making his way toward his study when he came to a sudden stop. Pushing open the door to the master bedroom, Jace realized that the rose-scented smell of Sage was almost gone. It was as if she was never here.The rose seal was still on the bedside table. Picking it up, Jace traced his fingers across the seal and realized that the red ink had seeped into his name carved on the stamp pad.Reading the card that Sage had left him, he realized that the handwriting on the card was similar to the carved-out name on the seal. Could it be that Sage had personally carved his name onto the s

Jace had not used his hacking skills for a long time; therefore, he was slightly slow and a bit awkward.After a while, he finally got a hang of it and he sped up gradually.All these years, he never had to look into anyone on his own as Zayne would have everything settled for him. However, Jace was still annoyed by the fact that Zayne had allowed Sage Norah to hide her identity and marry him as Sage Luz. Jace desperately wanted to knock some sense into Zayne.This time it was Sage Norah, but what if next time it was an industrial spy? However, Jace quickly realized that Zayne was right.

She took a sip from the bottle of water that Hunter passed her. Turning to Yoel with a look of disgust she said, "You just really don't know when to stop, do you? You are really starting to look greasy and cringy now."Yoel's face fell. He was in his prime and here he was being described as greasy and cringy. Today, he had been the recipient of too many insulting "daggers" from Sage and being the vindictive person he was, Yoel had to return the favor. "At this very moment, I bet my dear friend Jace is sitting in front of his laptop feeling defeated. I feel so sorry for him."Furrowing her brows tightly together, Sage asked, "Who?""Jace. Jace Yuriel. Your ex-husband."Yoel enunciated the words carefully, and every word that he said was like a dagger thrusting into Sage's heart. "He asked me to dig up some information on you, but I didn't agree to his request. I'm guessing that he had decided to take matters into his own hands.""You're telling me that the person with such lame

The drive from Nadeem City to Salem City takes about two hours. The sky was overcast, and the sound of rain was hypnotic. Sage did not feel like conversing with Yoel anymore. Putting a blanket over her shoulders, she planned to take a nap. Before she closed her eyes, she warned Yoel, "Keep quiet."To Hunter, she said, "Throw him out of the car if he's causing trouble.""Don't worry. I'll be good," Yoel replied, "I can lend you my shoulder if you like.""No thanks. I might have a nightmare."Yawning, Sage closed her eyes and said nothing more. Yoel chuckled softly. Looking at the woman who was curled up like an adorable small pet, Yoel had the urge to pull her closer into his arms.He reached for his phone and proceeded to take a photo of Sage.Realizing what Yoel was up to, Hunter glared at him and wanted to snatch away his phone.Yoel swiftly avoided Hunter. Winking, Yoel hushed Hunter. He planned to carry out his actions proudly. Hunter tried to force Yoel to delete the

The partnership needed a few last details to be hashed out before it was finalized. Yoel got out of the car when it came to a stop in front of the Norah Group's building. Sage had ordered the upper management to gather for a meeting so that she might tell them that the piece of land near the outskirts of Salem would no longer be turned into a golf course, but instead, would be transformed into a horse racing track. She stayed after work to speed through some documents. After going through several documents, she received a call from home.Miss Zamora, her house butler, had called to report that Yeva could not hold on any longer.Sage's eyes flickered. She had almost forgotten about Yeva.Yeva felt like she was going to die soon.She could feel her soul leaving her body. She had never expected that she would die from starvation.Yeva had never been this hungry all her life. The first day was not too bad as Yeva had told herself that she had been fasting or that she had been on

After the lesson by Sage, Yeva had been on her best behavior. She had wanted to complain to her father so that he might help her get her revenge, but she had heard that her father was away. Both Braxton and Zane had taken a trip to some archeological dig so that they could dig up treasures with a team of archeologists, and she had no way of reaching them. [When the cats are away, the mice will play.]Sage had been busy while Braxton and Zane were not around. She had taken over most of their ongoing projects, and she had also made significant changes within the company by following the rule: [Those who comply will thrive, and those who resist will perish.] There were many companies under the Norah Group, and each company was examined and overseen by a head of department. The workload was heavy. At least three meetings would be held in order to monitor the progress of the important projects. "The rose-themed jewelry project has garnered good reactions on the internet and the pub

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.

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 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

"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.
