A Relentless Pursuit for Love Chapter 46
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

Jace watched the night scene through his car window. He was fumbling with the rose seal as he realized that he had not known his ex-wife at all. Now, he wanted to get to know her. The car drove past the landmark of Salem City— The Rose Parterre.Jace called Yoel. "I've reached."…Just as she was about to get off work, Sage received a call from Luther. He wanted her to attend a charity event with him. Without a hint of hesitation, Sage rejected his offer, "I'm busy.""You're going to die from all the work. To maintain a healthy lifestyle, you should work hard and play hard." Sensing that Sage was about to end the call, Luther hurriedly added, "There'll be an auction at the dinner event. I heard that they're auctioning four enamel porcelain plates. They are from that famous potter that you admire. It's mine if you are not going to go for it." Sage, who was signing the papers, stopped, and said, "Time and venue."Luther chuckled, pleased. "I'll pick you up from Rosa Garden

Yeva was rendered speechless.Watching Sage as she walked away with graceful strides, Yeva, who was burning with jealousy, gritted her teeth.Things had always been this way since they were young. Sage had always gotten whatever she wanted without even having to ask while Yeva had to settle for Sage's castoffs. However, Yeva's father was the chairman of Norah Group, and she was supposedly the rightful heiress of the Norah family, not Sage. At the thought of this, Yeva hated the fact that she had to tiptoe around Sage, and she swore to herself that she would no longer allow this to continue. As soon as Sage walked out of Rosa Garden, she realized that Luther was nowhere to be seen. Instead, a silver BMW was parked in front of the gate, and she saw Julian getting out of the car. "Julian!" Yeva was filled with emotion when she saw her boyfriend, and she began running toward him with open arms. She had even deliberately bumped Sage's shoulder as she ran past her. Caught off guard

Julian and Yeva turned to look at Sage at the same time.Although she had a cold and indifferent expression, Sage's remarks were filled with sarcasm.Studying Julian from head to toe, Sage mocked, "Do you even look at yourself before you judge others? Look at that beer belly of yours. Can't you see it sticking out?"At Sage's remarks, Julian cleared his throat uncomfortably and sucked in his stomach.Before Julian could even defend himself, Yeva exploded.Like a wife protecting her husband, Yeva stood in front of Julian and started yelling angrily at Sage, "Who are you to judge my boyfriend? What does it matter to you if he has a beer belly? I like Julian no matter how he looks. You don't even know how to appreciate men! It is no wonder you're always single and unmarried until now!"Thinking that Julian was backing her up, Yeva got even bolder and continued, "Humph, a woman like you would get divorced later even if you get married!"Sage stared at Yeva with a cold and piercing g

The earlier episode did not affect Sage's mood.The fashion magazine, Timeless, had organized a charity dinner at Crowne Suits. As this country's fashion industry's leading magazine, the invitation to the dinner event was highly sought after among well-known figures and artists.Even though Sage had received an invitation, she did not bring the invitation card with her. With Luther accompanying her, she was able to enter the venue without a problem. Sage became the center of attention as soon as she entered the venue. On the red carpet, an emcee was interviewing several artists. The artists were flashing brilliant smiles at the camera as they were interviewed. After the interview, they would sign their names on the board and get their pictures taken. Sage, on the other hand, walked past the red carpet and politely declined to put down her signature.The crowd of reporters noticed the beauty and elegance that Sage radiated, and they assumed that she was someone well-known and reput

This time, Jace was the one who started the conversation."I have come."His voice carried hints of gentleness. For some reason, he sounded like an apologetic husband approaching his wife after a fight. Raising her brows, Sage found the situation somewhat strange.'I've made myself clear to him that we should treat each other as strangers the next time we met. So, why is Jace acting as if he is on familiar terms with me?'"Sorry, but do I know you?"Sage simply glanced at him nonchalantly, turned around, and walked away.Jace was left alone. Staring at Sage, who was leaving, he compressed his lips into a slit.He felt a weight settle on his shoulders, and he heard Yoel's chuckle. "Damn, wasn't it embarrassing? I feel for you."Trying his best not to laugh, Yoel went on, "This is not how you get a lady, especially not your ex-wife. You were the one who abandoned her and with an 'I have come'. Are you expecting Sage to come running back into your arms? Do you really think that

Everything happened in a split second but Sage could not completely avoid it.Before Sage could move away, she was being pulled aside. Losing her balance, Sage fell into the arms of the person who had yanked her out of the way. She crashed into his chest. She immediately felt a piercing pain in her nose, almost tearing up.As he was in a hurry, Jace did not hold back and yanked her into his arms a little too vigorously. Sage's head was resting against his chest, and she could hear clearly the beating of his heart next to her ear. Thump! Thump! Thump! It was an unfamiliar feeling to Sage.For a moment, Sage was stunned.She had been married to Jace for three years, but he had never touched her. This was the first time that she had been this close to him.Sage, of course, had imagined what it would feel like to be in Jace's arms. She thought that it would be comfortable and warm, but his chest was as hard as a rock.'Has he been working out a lot? Why are his abs so hard?'Feel

Those outside wanted to break in, while people inside wanted to break out of the siege.'Sage and Jace had been through marriage once. In their first marriage, they were both losers. This time, they were both determined to win. They wanted to live their lives well. Even if their passion were to fade in the future, they would never leave each other.

It's a good day for this number."Jace suddenly came up with a good idea, "Let's have a daughter and call her Little Nine, okay?"'Did he just come up with that? How brave,' Sage thought and

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

"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. He said, smiling, "It is. Basketball is all about teamwork. Small forward is probably the most versatile of the five main basketball positions and carries multiple functions in the game.

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.
