Zachary must have charged the phone. The phone's battery was still full.This phone was manufactured locally. It had a starry sky wallpaper, but the screen was pretty much empty. All the software was deleted, except for WhutsApp.The strange feeling in her heart grew stronger.Sage clicked on the WhutsApp icon. There was only a name in his contact list.

Freya looked at her with sincere eyes. "When Jay divorced you, he gave you a two hundred billion check. However, you didn't take it and left it behind. I know you don't care about his money, so I scolded him after that.""You took care of him for three years. How could he use a two hundred billion check to get rid of you? It's shameful.""After that, he explained that he didn't want to give you so much money at once. He was worried that it would be unsafe for a girl to have too much money in hand, so he planned to give you the rest of the money after you settled down.""He got the property in Nadeem City a long time ago. He wanted to give you the Fairview Residence unit. He probably bought the unit in Salem City much later. The keys are with me…"Freya turned back to Aunt Wendy. Wendy handed two sets of keys to Freya, which Freya, in turn, handed to Sage."Aunt Freya, I don't…" Sage wanted to return it, but Freya held her hand and stopped her."Sage, please accept it.

Laura filled her plate with more food and kept urging her to eat. However, Sage had no appetite and could barely eat.Her heart felt empty and terrible.Outside, it was hot and sunny.She thought the autumn rain would remain cold, but it had been unbearably hot for the past few days.They sat in the restaurant with air conditioning and cooled down, but the restlessness in her heart refused to go away."I remember having a meal like this with Jace and Yoel when we were on a break from the army. At that time, he found a roadside restaurant and enjoyed the meal and drinks."Laura chuckled. "At that time, the three of us didn't know each other well enough yet. I wasn't good at reading people, so I thought Jace came from a family of public servants. I assumed that his parents worked as civil servants, which influenced him into a quiet and cold man.

Are you sure it's not one of your disciples?" asked Sage.Both Sage and Wayne were infinitely more interested in the replica than anything else that happened in the afternoon."I don't have any disciples except for you. After all, our family has been working in the jade industry for years."Besides, I

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.

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.
