Ross slowly recounted his side of the story, “When we arrived at Nadeem City, we saw how different you were. It was as if you were a completely different human being. Like you were tamed, you were no longer the troublemaking sister that I remembered.”

Sage felt her throat go dry, and her face started burning up, who knew that Ross and Tim saw her back in Nadeem City.

‘Back then, they were probably laughing at me,’ thought Sage to herself.

“We saw how you tried to play the role of a good wife. How you tried your best to make him comfortable. That very moment I felt an uncontrollable rage arise within me, if Tim didn’t stop me then, I would’ve probably got down from the car and brought you home,” said Ross.

Ross felt the rage within him even when it was something in the past. “Your brother said something that I didn’t understand.”

“What did he say?” asked Sage.

“He said you had it coming,” answered Ross.

Sage was speechless. She suddenly felt that everything seemed so meaningless

Don’t be stubborn like me,” said Mendoza.Mendoza continued with his life lessons, “If you don’t apologize in time, you might not ever get the chance. If you don’t try to do what’s right by the people you love, you’re going to regret it for the rest of your life.”Jace listened to his teacher silently.That was the first time Mendoza gave him any advice after his divorce from Sage.When Mendoza was finished, Jace finally nodded and said, “I know what to do.”Mendoza led Jace to the office after locking up the safe.

    The car finally pulled over at Tasteful Restaurant.Holding an umbrella for Sage, Ross walked into the restaurant with her.From afar, it looked like a scene from a movie; Ross who wore a white long-sleeved tee, and Sage who wore a long red dress, both walking under the rain.Jim who served the dishes noticed Sage right away and a smile found its way onto his face. However, his smile faded away slowly the moment he realized the man standing next to her, had his arm placed around her shoulders.Ross handed the umbrella to a waitress and he noticed a tall-looking young lad that stared at him. The gaze of the young lad was cold.Ross felt a sense of rivalry from the young lad.Ross guessed who the young lad could have been when he heard Sage calling out to him, "Jim."When Sage called his name, the young lad immediately beamed and pulled into a wide grin. The coldness in his gaze melted away and was replaced by warmth.He walked over to them. "Hey, sis!"Ross arched one of his br

I've grounded her."Sage took a glance at R

    Sage was completely rendered speechless by her two brothers.Did they think that they were stand-up comedians?Ross, on the other hand, was satisfied with their reactions. He felt as if he finally found someone who understood how he felt and shared his feelings.The three guys started judging and criticizing Yoel. They even came up with a plan to put an end to Emily's silly crush. Their ideas were more terrifying than the others."Emily cooped up in the house for too long and everyone at the school of Samuels is all decent and well-mannered people. Hence, Emily would of course see someone as sly and cunning as Yoel to be special.""I don't mind if Emily gets into a relationship at this age, but it matters who the guy is right? Yoel’s a notorious player and I even heard rumors that he changed 29 girlfriends in just one month. That's a different girlfriend every other day, ain't it?"Sage asked, "What about that one day? Where could he be doing that one day?"No one cared to respo

"Do you have a death wish?""..."Jim immediately shook his head frantically.With a hardened expression on her face, Sage continued applying the ointment on his finger, sounding rather unfriendly, Sage said, "I'm okay with you calling me sis, but don't push it further."Jim replied obediently, "Okay."He then asked, "Is the man one of your brothers too?"Yeah," Sage wiped her hand clean, put on the cover of the bottle, and added, "he's my godbrother."Nodding his head, Jim murmured, "You have so many brothers…""You too, aren't you?"Sage thought that Jim was simply being jealous. Chuckling, she said, "Not everyone’s as lucky as me. You're already lucky to have one brother."Jim looked up at her and smiled, "You're right."Getting up from the chair, Jim said to Sage, "My brother’s recovering quickly all thanks to you.

    Ross and Kane looked at Luther and nodded their heads at the same time. "Yes, you did."The both of them burst into laughter.Luther, "..."Inwardly, Luther thought to himself, 'Why am I always the one who ends up being hurt in the end?"The gathering between Sage and her brothers only came to an end at midnight. By the time they left the restaurant, all of them were already tipsy and drunk. Jim waited for Sage. When Sage came downstairs and noticed that he was still around, she asked, "Mm? Is that you Jim? What are you still doing here? Hop in, I'll give you a ride home.""It's alright, sis. I've brought my car."Holding Sage by her arm, Jim asked, "Are you alright? Why’d you drink so much?""Ah, just because!"Sage pulled into a wide grin as Luther took Sage by her arms. She then waved at Jim and said, "Train hard, Jim! I'm waiting for the day you become the world's best player/"Staring at Sage who walked away from him, Jim clenched his hands tightly together into a fist.

    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.

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 knew he would get back at her.She rolled over and lay on top of Jace.
