"Present!" Melody and Yoel answered at the same time."Escort this man out of this place now so he can stop harassing our Freya!"Master Duncan said as he wheeled Freya away, "Let's go, Freya. Who cares about his trash? I have so much turmeric powder in my room. You can take as much as you want."Lucas' face sank as he watched the man wheeled Freya away.He could not help but wonder who that man was. Was that Freya's new potential partner?Seth stayed back in Lundon after the show because of his upcoming advertisement gig.Sage and Tim went back to Birmingham by themselves.On the way back, Tim received an email and said to Sage, "Yale had just arrived at Salem.""Hm?" Sage paused and asked, "What is he doing in Salem?""Jekyll will be sent back to Tovres soon, and Yale will need to be there to sort some things out."Sage understood immediately what Tim was referring to and asked, "Will he be able to find out things about dad and mom?""We've been through and have done worse
Back in Birmingham, Tim sent Sage back to Meadow Castle and headed to Humming Hills.There were things that had to be settled between him and Madam Meyers.It was late at night in Birmingham, whilst Salem was just before dawn.Sage did not call as she assumed that certain someone must have been sleeping. She took a shower and got ready for bed.Jace, on the other hand, had been checking his phone an ungodly amount of times. Yet, there were no messages from Sage.When he closed his eyes, he swore he could hear his phone ring, as if he was hallucinating. He then turned his phone volume to the highest.Jace tossed and turned the whole night, unable to fall asleep.Sage, over at the other side, had just lit up a rose-scented candle. She put on her sleeping eye mask and fell asleep in an instant with the aid of the sound of the rain outside.The next day, early in the morning, she woke up lazily from her sleep. She wanted to do some light stretching to wake herself up.Tim and Seth
Sage replied, as usual, and asked him to take care of himself and to reach out anytime if he needed help, like a good and caring boss she was.Jim, on the other hand, was much cuter than his older brother.His messages had filled up the whole screen. He asked about how she had been doing in Yathein, told her about winning an MVP for the competition, and showed the gold, sparkly trophy cup to her.He also asked her when she was going back to the country to fulfill her promise.'This kid…' Sage thought and smiled.Before the competition, Jim had been training and nothing else. He had only learned about Sage's plane accident shortly before the competition. He sobbed and wailed when he found out.He wanted to ditch the competition and insisted on flying to Yathein to see Sage.Jim's international team's coach could not bear to see that and managed to get in touch with Sage so she could talk him out of it.Sage used up all sorts of tricks and took a long time to convince him to stay
Jace's plan was almost the same as Sage's.From what they knew, Sienna was seemingly 'sold' to Peter by Lucas in order to save Luna.However, these were all part of Jekyll's game.Lucas, Sienna, and Peter were all Jekyll's pawns.Lucas and Sienna were easily manipulated, but Peter, on the other hand, was not just any other pawn. He agreed to Jekyll's plan only because he had his own plan to execute.From what they had learned about Peter, he was a through and through opportunist. He did everything with benefits in mind. He was a scheming, ambitious man.From an outside perspective, it might seem like the reason he had a successful career was because of his wives, but his fathers-in-law always seemed to be more successful than his previous ones.Those wealthy and successful old men all wanted Peter as their son-in-law. They did not care about his background or his marital history because of his capabilities.With that, Jace and Sage knew not to do anything reckless before they t
He picked up the phone and heard Sienna saying, "Jace, it's me, Sienna!"Jace hung up the phone in an instant.The phone rang again and again. Jace knew that she would just keep calling, so he eventually caved and picked it up with a cold gaze."Jace, please don't hang up the phone! Someone's trying to kill me. Please help me!"Sienna was begging for help from the other side of the phone. Her voice was shaky as she told him what had happened.Jace heard the name 'Shanie Hill' and knew instantly that she was Peter's current wife.Jace could not be bothered and said calmly to Sienna, "This is your own doing. It has nothing to do with me. My only suggestion is to call the police."He then hung up the phone and blocked the number.Sienna attempted to call again but failed.She was on the verge of crying.She tried calling Peter, but he refused to pick up the phone. She had thought of calling the police as well, but she was afraid. With Shanice's title, there was no use in calling
By the time Tim returned back to Meadow Castle, it was already evening."Tim…" Sage went running downstairs to welcome him. Other than feeling a coldness from her brother's body, she also smelled some bloody odor. She looked at Tim's eyes and saw his blue pupils glowing with coldness, as cold as the ice cone formed on the winter day, so sharp that it could pierce into a person's heart. The corners of his eyes were full of blood veins that stained them red.At that time, her throat felt stuck, and all those questions she wanted to ask vanished into thin air. She could only embrace him into her arms silently. No matter the outcome, the interrogating process with Madam Meyer was torturing Tim like a knife slicing off the old wound on his body until the bone was seen."I'm fine." With a hoarse voice, Tim let go of his sister and said, "Let's go up."Sage nodded lightly. Tim went to take a shower in the bathroom after entering his room. Sage went to the kitchen to make a cup of hot choc
That bullet took two lives in one shoot as neither of them survived.For the past few years after Cece passed away, Tim exterminated a family in the Yathein at all costs to avenge Cece, and no one else dared to mention that family anymore. However, they did not expect Shawn to take part in the murder."Tim, we can't just stand and do anything anymore." Sage said, "Shawn is a crazy man. We cannot expect or judge his action with our theory. He is not like us. Even if we don't do anything, he won't let us go anyway, so why don't we make the first move?"Tim was calm as the water in the lake. In fact, he had already thought about what Sage said. He was never a person to sit and wait. All these years, he had never stopped tracking Shawn. His men had already fought with Shawn countless times, and each time both parties suffered heavy casualties and none of them was the winner.It was never his intention to let his younger brothers and sister find out about it. As the eldest brother, he d
Sage left the room so that Tim could get some rest. When she was back in her room, she received a few photos and a video from Laura.The photos were of Sienna with a swollen face. Her elegant face was so swollen that it was hard to tell what she originally looked like. She was kneeling on the ground with her head looking down and her body swaying around.'What did she do to receive such retribution?' Sage thought. She played the video, and she saw Sienna get slapped in the face and the sound was as loud as fireworks.Although it was not a good time to gloat, Sage did not think so when it came to Sienna. She felt very happy instead.Later, Laura made a call. "How was it? Are you happy to see Sienna, the homewrecker, being slapped?""Thrilled." Sage smiled as she opened the door. She asked, "Who was the good samaritan who did this good deed?"Laura laughed out loud cheerfully and answered, "It is a good deed but not by a good samaritan."Then she told Sage that a childhood friend
