Jace sat on the bench outside the ward. He was awake all night. The blue under-eye bag was showing on his face.

Yoel just had a phone call with his father. After a long explanation of the series of questions, he could finally retreat.

He strode over to Jace. "Why are you sitting outside? Didn't you bring the lunchboxes to eat with Sage?"

Jace's voice was raspy. "I'm not hungry."

Yoel glanced into the ward and understood. He snorted, "Why are you not hungry? Did they kick you out?"

"No." Jace grimaced, "I'll make the air tense inside."

"Right. Looking at you, I don't think Sage's brothers can eat."

Yoel laughed at his friend's misery from the bottom of his heart. As he sat down on one side of the bench, Jace suddenly got up without warning. Yoel almost tumbled over with the bench.

"Holy cr*p." Yoel steadied himself with a grimace, then glared at Jace. "You're too vengeful!"

Jace sat down again with a stern face.

Yoel looked at his grim face. He made Jace upset, so he had to co

    Jekyll was arrested by the police for the earlier bombing and kidnapping case, in which Sage was the injured party. Sean represented Sage as her lawyer. He made a trip to the police station for her.As an internationally wanted fugitive, Jekyll's arrest was a big deal. However, Sean did not look optimistic. He told Sage, "Jekyll's case is far more complicated than we think."Sage's eyebrows twitched. She suddenly had a bad feeling.Sean explained that Jekyll was wanted by Interpol as a Class A criminal. He might have committed crimes here, but there were many forces behind him. For a felon like him, no matter which Interpol member or non-member countries caught him, he should be handed over to the country with jurisdiction as required. He could not be executed without permission.Sage frowned, hearing Sean's explanation. "You mean Jekyll can't be executed here? He must return to his home country?"Sean nodded. "That's right.""What?"Luther jumped in anger. "Then Sage hurt her

    "Huh?"Everyone was shocked.Laura almost choked and hurriedly rephrased her sentence, "No, it's a change of heart! Now, I don't hit people as much."Sage chuckled, "You don't fight ordinary people, do you? Brothers, be careful. Laura works for the special force. She's a female machine gunner and one of the people who rescued me in the jungle operation."Laura was a female machine gunner in the special force and saved Sage's life before! When Sage mentioned these points, it was awe-inspiring and immediately captured all their hearts."Laura, right? Come and have a seat. Don't just stand there."Nigel was the first to send a friendly signal.Kane hissed, "How dare you call her Laura?"Nigel was confused. "Huh? What else can I call her?"He observed the look on Kane's face and tried seriously, "Should I call her Tyrant? Or, how about calling her just Mrs. Hudson?"Seth smiled warmly. "I think it's okay."Luther also echoed, "I agree!"Kane fell silent and went beet red. No on

    No, not just a little. He was extremely nervous!"Kane."Laura was also anxious, but she had always been straightforward. She was so used to being with men in the military that she would just say anything on her mind.She mustered her courage and looked up at Kane. Her heart thudded loudly inside her chest at his handsome face and deep gaze."I think you're pretty good-looking."Kane was stunned. "You really think so?"Laura smirked and said, "Yes! I don't mind having a son like you."Kane felt his brain buzzing.'I wanted you as my wife, but you see me as your son?'Kane's lips twitched. He was about to lash out at her when Laura blurted, "You're handsome, and I like you very much. Let's date!"Kane was confused and at a loss for words at first, but he was stunned when he realized that he had been confessed to!The situation had gone entirely out of Kane's control. He heard white noise, and he stood frozen in place for a long time before he could react.Jace sat on the ben

    Jace sat on the chair. His eyes never left Sage's forehead.Her forehead was still wrapped in gauze. Nigel was the one who bandaged it for her, and he even cut out the shape of a rabbit and pasted it on her forehead. It was adorable.If only the skin behind the bandage was not a wound.Sage ignored his worried gaze and asked, "Have you been tracking Jekyll?"That he could arrive so quickly was surely not a coincidence. Sage found from Laura that Jace had been tracking Jekyll's whereabouts.Not only did Jace request help from his ex-comrades for help, he even spent a massive amount on hiring a group of special forces.After the car accident, Sage was unconscious and had no idea what had happened at the scene.She was relieved when she found out that Jekyll had been arrested.Sage thought it was her men who caught him, but Luther told her that when they arrived, it was chaos.Even though Sage had her own men, Jekyll had his men too. Both parties got physical at the scene.At th

    Was it purely because they didn’t want to break the law?Sage observed Jace quietly. She looked at his crew cut and cold face, thinking that he looked way better when he was not being all emotional with her about their past relationship.Jace's assumption was correct, but she had no intention of explaining the details to him.Sage said, "You're right that Jekyll must be kept alive for now. As for why, I have no intention of telling you. Please just leave me and stay out of my business."Jace frowned slightly upon hearing that. "No can do." Sage scoffed, "That's because you have no idea how much bullsh*t I have on my shoulders."If he knew, he would have been so terrified, and he would have fled far away.Love was never unconditional.Sage had witnessed countless couples who had sworn to 'love unconditionally', 'forever and always', but when trouble came knocking, they would always prioritize themselves over their partners.They would reconsider how much their partners were wo

    Sage fiddled with the 'easy kneeling pads' in her hands and chuckled awkwardly."Thank her for me, but will Tim allow me to use this?"Everyone raised their heads upon hearing that question, and they looked defeated.Luther said, "I wouldn't dare use it even if you asked me to. If Tim found that I wore knee pads while I was being punished to kneel, he would have me kneel for a whole year."Nigel replied, "Heh! You're too naive. One year? He'd probably have you kneel for the rest of your life until you break your legs."Suddenly, Luther quivered.He felt grateful that he had only gotten some scolding and had his car confiscated. Tim had surely gone easy on him.Sage cowardly stuffed the knee pads back into Seth's hands. "I'd better not wear them then."Sage did not want to risk pissing her eldest brother off any further. The last thing she wanted when she arrived at Yathein was to receive more punishments.Kane was in a rotten mood and said agitatedly, "Why not? You were asked

    Sage couldn’t help complaining, "I thought time was supposed to pass in a blink of an eye. Why is it passing so excruciatingly slowly now?""Hey, it's been an hour!"Luther felt utterly different. "How did it pass so quickly? I've only played two rounds of the game."Sage rolled her eyes at him and thought, 'Oh. Life really is unfair.'Sage could not take it anymore and uttered, "Stop playing on your phones. Come and talk with me." Everyone was immersed in their screens, and none of them bothered to respond.Since everyone chose to be so heartless, Sage decided to stir the pot.She raised her brows and asked, "Kane, has Laura talked to you yet?"Kane was heartbroken.Kane had been holding his phone the entire time for Laura’s reply. His phone had almost run out of battery, but she did not respond to any of the messages he sent."No," Kane sighed grimly."Don't overthink it. Laura isn't the type to ignore you on purpose. Her family probably took her phone away from her

    Luther and the rest casually chatted in their group chat named 'Without Sage'. They told Tim about their recent updates.Sage suddenly shouted so loud that Luther almost dropped his phone in panic.Nigel was startled and stopped by the door. The door was opened within the next second, and he was pulled inside by a big hand!Zamora was in the living room downstairs. Hearing Sage’s roar, she had to rub her chest for a while before finally catching her breath again. "Jeez. I thought Madam resurrected."The maids dissolved into laughter. They thought that the voice was remarkable, too. It reminded them of the old times when Sawyer Norah hung out with a few other men without his wife knowing. Sage was so mad and condemned them for isolating her. Tim snorted softly on the other end of the line. "How dare you laugh at me?!"Sage got angrier and blamed Tim for not being a good example to the rest.Tim asked, "What? Am I wrong to say that?"It was rare for Sage to be so domineering

    Sage heard of the saying, 'Marriage is for happiness, and so does divorce.'Based on Wikipedia, the definition of marriage was, 'Marriage is a long-term contractual relationship between a man and a woman based on equal consent.'Someone once said, 'Marriage is like a siege. 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. There were eight couples in line ahead of them. Sage and Jace were the ninth.Jace was eager for their turn. He counted carefully and then said with a smile, "It's nine again. 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

    'Electric drill? Seriously?!' 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. When he saw the couple kissing in the light, he suddenly raised his hand and hit his head.'I must be on the set… Who else would be so shameless as to kiss in public like that?' Dean thought.Sage finally calmed down after a long kiss. Jace breathed a sigh of relief and picked her up. He told Logan, "I'll leave the other guy to you!""Oh," Logan responded. Then he picked Dean up like a kid and walked out the door.Jace was tired and sweaty by the time he arrived at the hotel. Sage was already soundly asleep. Jace put her to bed and took off her shoes, socks, pants, and clothes. He stripped her clean.Sage drank a lot and was reeking of alcohol. Jace did not want to wake her up, so he did not carry her to the bathroom and bathe her. Instead, he wet the towel with hot water to

    "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. Sage and Jace lay flat on the bed after laughing nonstop. They opened up and improved their intimacy so much. As a result, their whole body and mind were very relaxed tonight. "Hey..." The two spoke in unison, exchanged a glance, and smiled again.Sage said, "Go ahead."Jace looked at Sage and muttered, "I'll say something, but don't get mad at it.""Just say it." Sage looked at him.Jace though
