Sage was in a good mood after the call with her eldest brother.

It was always that way for her - just a phone call with Tim and she would be put in a good mood. It was the feeling that she did not have to worry about anything because she knew Tim would have her back.

It was just that Tim was always busy. Because of his identity, he was not able to leave his country, so Sage would need to visit him instead.

There was a time when he bought her an entire island and said, "I've gotten you an island. Do you want to fly over and come and have a look?"

It was obvious to Sage that Tim missed her.

He just could not bring himself to say it.

The corners of her lips curled up, which was seen by Yoel.

"Did something good happen? Look at you all smiling."

Yoel arched his brow. "Come on, share your happiness with me."

He was about to sit down next to Sage when Sage pushed him away. At the same time, Laura walked over and gave him another push. "Did we allow you to sit here?"

Laura then sat

    Laura kept her eyes on Kane. Still confused, she asked, "I thought dating it's supposed to involve both parties? Since when does dating only need one person's approval?"Laura was confused.Kane nodded. "It's what the youngsters do these days."Youngsters.To prove that she was still young, Laura tried to convince herself that Kane made sense.Yoel, on the other hand, found Kane ridiculous."I never expect to see this side of you, Kane."Yoel smirked, "I've always thought that you were gay."Laura turned her head abruptly to look at Kane. "Are you gay?""Of course not! Don't listen to his nonsense!"Kane then glared at Yoel, seething, "Do you have a death wish?""Uh, no."Yoel added nonchalantly, "But if you wish to win over Laura, you better mind your manner when you're with me. After all, I have a bag of all your dirty little secrets."Kane simmered in anger.Yoel was unfazed.Laura looked to her left and right.It looked as if a fight was about to break out."Are yo

    It fell silent for a moment."My my, look at me. I just remembered that I have a medical appointment with Doctor Samuel."Jace's grandmother added, "Honey, let's go. Didn't you want to drop by the museum?"Jace's grandfather nodded and played along, "Oh right! I'll be taking my leave then, Sage!"Jace's uncles suddenly checked their wristwatches simultaneously."There's still some work left to do at the office. We'll be leaving now as well. Take care of yourself, Jace."Zachary said, "Jace, I have some assignments that I need to rush. I'll also be leaving now. See you around, Sage!"Faye and Zachary then waved goodbye to Sage and Jace.With her eyes full of delight, Freya left the ward and softly closed the door behind her.Within a few seconds, everyone in the Yuriel family left, leaving Sage and Jace alone in the room.Sage was stunned. She then felt the grasp around her wrist being tightened.As Sage lowered her head, her brows knitted into a frown when she realized that

    He lay on the bed and she stood next to his bed, leaning toward him. They were at a dangerously close distance from each other.Jace still held her hands, and the sounds of their breath were in sync.It was a rather peculiar scene."Feeling better now?"Sage felt slightly uncomfortable and moved further away from him."Yeah, much better."Jace let go of her hands slowly, and just when Sage was about to take back her hands, Jace grabbed her wrist again.Sage was annoyed as she did not understand what Jace tried to do.Only God knew how confused and conflicted Jace felt.He had to decide between his rationality and emotionality.Staring right into Sage's mesmerizing eyes, Jace finally came to a decision."Sage."In a husky and low voice, he asked, "Can you keep me company during my stay here at the hospital?"Meeting his eyes, Sage fell into silence.***"What? He wants you to keep him company at the hospital?"Luther exploded in anger. "Jace Yuriel said that to you?"Wi

    Her brothers were triggered by the fact that Sage showed off."Tsk tsk, we all know that Tim got an island for you only, and the rest of us got nothing. You don't have to rub it in, do you?"Luther rolled his eyes at Sage. "Don't push it, Sage."Sage, on the other hand, flashed a smug smile at him."That's not the point, guys. The point is, do you guys want to go to Yathein with me?"At the thought of Tim's stern face, Sage suddenly felt chills running down her spine. "I might have crossed the line when I escaped the health center, and Tim did mention that he would talk to me about this face to face. You guys won't possibly leave me to die, right?"Luther avoided her gaze and responded, "Count me out. I don't want to be caught in the crossfire between you and Tim.""Tsk, why did I even expect anything from you? I mean, if you go with me, I'd be able to share the 'pain' with you."Sage then turned to look at Kane. "Kane, come with me, hmm?""No can do."Kane shook his head and

    Yoel could no longer dodge Jace's cold and frightening glare and finally gave in. "Fine, fine. My father has been urging me to get married and have a family of my own. I got annoyed and did what I did. However, Sage didn't say yes and even wanted to throw her sandals on my face. She’s so hard to get!"Laura scoffed. "Wasn't there a woman who wanted you but was rejected by you?"Yoel immediately said, "Your situation right now is pretty similar to mine. Stop teasing me when you're not any better."Laura became listless as soon as she thought of Kane.She had never been pursued by a man before. When it came to things like that, she was definitely inexperienced.All Laura wanted was to treat Kane like a big brother, but Kane insisted on making her his woman. Laura felt frustrated.Sigh.All three members of Team Draco had fallen into their own personal relationship issues at the same time.Yoel eventually snapped out of it and went back to their original topic. "Say, Bald Fish."

    Sage always fulfills her promises.The Yuriels were ecstatic that Sage would accept the task of being Jace's companion, but at the same time, they felt bad for troubling her. The Yuriels had arranged for two extra bodyguards and two extra care workers to help Sage out.Jace stayed in a very spacious single room.The next day, Hunter knocked on his door early in the morning. "Sorry to bother you, Mister Jace."Hunter then ordered the men around, "Move them in now, be careful."Jace looked up and saw men in uniforms moving a foldable couch in.Followed was an office table, an office chair, a laptop, a table lamp, a pen holder, a bookshelf…All the furniture and appliances filled up the corner of the room, occupying more than half of the room.There was even a pair of stuffed rabbits just sitting around with a smile on their faces.Jace was at a loss of words.Even the stuffed rabbits were in a pair.The movers left after moving everything in.Hunter observed the room whilst c

    The two men started laughing as they played the imitation game.Jace could not help but laugh as well, being reminded of Sage's bad-mouthing skills.As soon as Jace laughed, Hunter and Louis contained themselves and immediately switched their tones."But of course, Miss Sage did it for our own good.""That's right. We'll forever be grateful for Miss Sage's kindness."Louis looked at Jace with guilt written all over his face. "I sounded genuine, right, Mister Jace?"Jace shook his head and said, "No, it didn't sound like it."Hunter and Louis were rendered speechless."How dare you badmouth the boss behind her back? Are you trying to lose your job?" Hunter was a step ahead of Louis.Louis squinted and said, "You were the one who started it, Hunter.""What? Is that so? How could it be? I have all the respect for Miss Sage." Hunter defended himself anxiously.Louis added quickly, "Me, too! I'll follow Miss Sage for as long as I live!"As the two men went back and forth, Sage a

    It was almost afternoon when Sage helped Jace up. She pulled out the table and set the dishes she had brought on the table.Jace smiled upon seeing the variety of dishes before him.Sage was utterly confused when Jace started laughing, thinking it was odd.Sage did hurting his head, but she did not remember breaking his brain. Why was he laughing so much?"What's so funny?"Jace looked up at her and asked, "Don't you think this is familiar?"Huh?Sage paused for a brief moment and eventually understood what he meant.Touche.Just a few days ago, Jace was the one who brought food and visited her in the hospital. Now, it was the complete opposite.Sage chuckled bitterly and said, "What a curse, we and hospitals."Jace's heart skipped a beat when he heard the word 'we'.His inky iris stared straight into Sage's eyes; his gaze was glowing with sparkles."Why are you staring at me? Is there something on my face?"Sage was oblivious to the flirting. She passed a pair of utensil

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.

    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

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.

    "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.
