Looking at Sage's stiffened expression, Jace answered, "I understand."

When Wendy came in, her eyes were still red.

Freya looked pale and languid. Her tiredness was evident in her eyes. Freya always appeared strong-willed outside. However, deep inside, she was just another ordinary middle-aged woman. Time left its traces on her like the fine lines at the corner of her eyes.

"Wendy, bring the mirror over. I want to look at myself in the mirror."

Wendy gave her a round mirror.

Freya looked at her reflection in the mirror and observed the wrinkles on her face. She had not looked at herself so seriously for many years. In her memory, she was much younger than the reflection in the mirror.

Freya did not have so many crow's feet before. Her features were not this sharp either. She remembered the paper's comment on her beauty before. They called her a soft woman with strong features.

A certain newspaper had called Lucas and her the perfect couple and a match made in heaven.

    Jace pressed his lips into a tight line. He was out for words and could not express the bitterness in him.Yoel scolded him for being as blind as a bat. The two women from the Zelda family had fooled him. He mistook them for the kindest angels with the purest heart. He thought they were nice people, but clearly, they were dumb and vicious.Yoel had seen countless women's true colors before and could easily see through them. When he first met Luna and Sienna, he knew they were bad people. Their ill intention was clearly written on their faces. Yoel did not even bother to look at them."Oh, you. You're just too inexperienced with women that you assume they are as pure as they look. Listen. Don't judge a book by its cover. Some women that look tough and smart on the outside, like Sage, aren't necessarily as strong inside." Yoel went on and on. "A strong woman may look tough outside, but they're kind inside. They are like hedgehogs. They are full of thorns, but you'll know they're s

Sage did not plan to wait for Jace, so she walked in first.Jace found a place to park the car. As soon as he unfastened his seatbelt, his head felt dizzy.Recently, he often felt dizzy. He occasionally had a headache and felt nauseous too. When did this start?He could not remember. Did it start after his divorce from Sage?

Now, a wave of disgust would drown him whenever he saw Sienna or heard the mention of her name.It turned out that love would disappear with time. His love for Sienna had disappeared like that.

    Sage turned him down coldly. She said with a deadpan expression, “Please just stay away from me.”Jace was rendered speechless. He rubbed his nose, feeling disappointed. Sage's rejection was evident.Mendoza held the teacup in his hand and drank the tea with a loud slurp. He also grinned in amusement. Wayne was annoyed by the slurping noises. "Mendoza, please keep quiet! Otherwise, I'll throw you out!"Mendoza and Jace were rendered speechless. They looked at each other in silence and obediently shut up.It was clear that Wayne had mentored Sage. Their rhythm, habits, state, and some subtle movement were almost the same and synchronized.Jace looked at them from the side, his eyes gleaming in a beautiful light.He spent countless nights feeling the Rose Stamp in his hand and the gifts Sage left him. He would stare at the drawn, carved, and engraved mark on it and imagine how Sage had made it. He tried to imagine the way Sage drew, carved and engraved them. However, nothing came

    Jace could not understand why they diverted the question to him. It came so sudden, and it stunned him.He gave Mendoza a look, thinking, ‘Are you messing with me? How am I supposed to answer that?'He had Mister Norah on one side and Sage on the other side. He must not offend them.A sudden silence loomed in the air. Jace smiled softly and said, “Let's share the benefit. The money will stay in the family.”Unexpectedly, Wayne and Sage's faces sank simultaneously after he said that. They said in unison, “Who's your family?”Stop messing around!Jace chuckled and faced the trouble. He said, "Isn't all the money Mister Norah earned all yours, Sage?”Well, that was true. Wayne snorted and said arrogantly, “Yeah. That's it.”Sage did not expose Wayne's true intent. She was not bold enough to tell the real reason in front of so many people. Wayne agreed to collaborate on the project and demanded half of the project's profit because he wanted to get justice for her. It was an addit

    Jace frequently drove Sage around and somewhat became her driver. However, he enjoyed it.The two did not speak to each other, so it was very quiet in the car.Jace got a few big boxes out of nowhere and piled all of them on the back seat. Sage had to sit in the front passenger seat because there was nowhere else to sit. She understood his trick, but she simply ignored it and played on her phone instead.A sudden cough broke the long silence.Jace asked, “What do you think of the project?" He was trying to start a conversation.Sage curved her finger and continued tapping on the screen. While she replied to Hunter’s several text messages, she answered Jace dully, "It’s not bad. You will profit in both reputation and money, killing two birds with one stone. Mister Jace, you made a good move."Her comment was pertinent and neutral, but it sounded rather perfunctory and polite.Jace then asked, "How do you know that Mister Norah signed this contract for you?"Sage frowned, looki

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.

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.
