Luther got off from the car and swung his car keys around his finger. He asked purposely with mockery, "Are you feeling embarrassed?"With straight faces, Flynn and Felipe had the desire to return home. In the end, they put on their thick skin and followed Luther into Rosa Garden.However, Wayne treated Flynn and Felipe differently from the way he treated Henry and Zachary. He gave them the silent treatment when he saw Flynn and Felipe come in thru the door and walked away immediately without hearing a word from them. He rather went back to his study room to admire The Starry Night than listen to Flynn and Felipe bicker.In the end, Flynn and Felipe had no choice but to wait for Sage to return. By the time Sage returned home, it was already late at night. They were treated very well in Rosa Garden. The maid served food and drink to them and took care of them.Flynn and Felipe sat on the couch while drinking the freshly brewed tea. The tea helped to freshen their minds and was very
The anger in Sage's eyes scared Flynn and froze him up. Felipe nudged his second brother and approached Sage with an apologetical smile, saying, "Sage, don't be angry. We don't mean to moral blackmail you. We just hope you would consider executing Jace's will.""I won't consider it." Her face was emotionless from the start as she continued, "I'm not his wife and do not have the authority.""Zamora, escort the guest out," Sage said. Without any further words, she went upstairs.After getting the cold shoulder, Flynn and Felipe failed to accomplish their mission and even offended Sage. Their faces looked very terrible.Zachary furrowed his brows with dissatisfaction, "Uncle Flynn, what you said was just terrible. I would be angry too if I were Sage. Is that the way to talk when you are begging someone?""I…" Flynn lost his tongue."Zachary's right. Dad, Sage is never in debt to our family. Even when Jace left so many things to her in his will, she never wants anything. It was the b
This was another shocking piece of news for Sage to find out that the artist actually needed five years to complete the painting. It was no wonder that the painting gave an impression of time passing as if many centuries had passed. However, the artist was just 15 years old when he completed the painting. That meant that he was just a teenager."What's his name? Where is he? Is he still painting?" Sage asked.The act of imitating was different from creating one's own art. It was not a glamorous occupation, and most people could never understand the reason behind it. Most imitation artists preferred to stay low-key and often did not like to disclose their names and occupation to other people.Nevertheless, it did not stop Sage from being curious and eager to want to know this teenager that was able to imitate such a legendary piece of art.With a pair of sorrowful eyes, Wayne stared at Sage with a regretful expression, "He… he's passed away."'Passed away?' Sage squinted her eyes a
The Yuriel family called for a family meeting and requested every family member to attend. Henry and Zachary took the first stand and talked about their experiences in Salem City for the last two days they were there. They even mentioned the attitude Mister Wayne had about continuing on being in charge of the Forget Me Not project."Obviously, Grandpa Wayne was still mad about it. But I asked Grandpa Mendoza and he said he used all kinds of methods to get him to agree. I think there's still hope." Henry built up everyone's confidence with the last statement.Zachary replied, "There's something I must reiterate. Rosa Garden is really very beautiful and she is rich. She doesn't even care about the small amount of money from our house."He said excitingly and tilted his head in Flynn and Felipe's direction, "So, we should not gauge the heart of a gentleman with one's own mean measure."Flynn’s and Felipe's faces turned green, and they both spoke in unison, "What do you mean by that?"
"Alright, Roy then." Grandma Yuriel laughed and asked, "Are you two a thing?""What are you talking about?" Freya blushed, "Both of us are just friends with similar common interests. That's all…""What do you mean that's all? He came all the way from Mostal to our home. There must be something going on." Grandpa Yuriel was trying hard to make a match.Grandma Yuriel chimed in, "I agree. He's a funny guy with good medical knowledge and seemed pretty easygoing. Plus, he's much better than that Lucas boy. You look very happy when you're with him."Freya lowered her head and smiled unconsciously when she thought of Roy, saying, "He's pretty funny."Grandpa Yuriel and Grandma Yuriel knew there was a chance of something blossoming based on Freya's reaction. Their daughter had always been better and more talented than their sons. The only mishap she had was with her relationship with Lucas. She nearly died because of it and now her son was…Every parent loved their child. They only hope
The Yuriel family kept on coming to Salem City continuously. This time, Grandpa Yuriel was here together with Flynn's eldest son, Riley. They were truly sincere to enlist for help.Sage had expected Grandpa Yuriel to pay her a visit so she actually worked from home while waiting. However, she did not expect Riley to come along with him. When she stayed with Jace, she hardly communicated with Riley.Although Riley was elder than Henry and Zachary, he looked younger than them in terms of appearance. He had a good student vibe and always looked very neat and tidy with his choice of clothing.He was quite shy when he entered and was also experiencing some social anxiety. While he followed his grandpa very closely, he unconsciously hid behind his grandpa when he saw anyone and yet, he would still greet the person politely.Having said all that, Riley was still a stunning guy. He had cherry-red lips and shiny white teeth. He also had eyes that were quite similar to Jace, yet slightly dif
"That won't do." Simon said, "Leaving our friendship aside. Have you forgotten about your habit?"Wayne widened his eyes, "What habit?""Once you start on something, you must complete it and it must be flawless or you'd rather not start at all." Simon chuckled and continued, “A perfectionist with OCD. There’s no treatment for that.”Wayne shouted, “Scram!”“Alright, alright. You don’t have to be so hot-tempered.” Simon pulled Wayne to sit down on the couch, saying, "It's all my fault. I failed to supervise those people. It will never happen again. You are the head of the project and you have all the say in it.""I'm not going back because of you. The reason I agreed to go back is because of money!" Wayne snorted, "You think I didn't know how capitalist-minded you are? The project is already halfway done. I need to complete it to get my money."Simon grinned from ear to ear. "You don't have to worry about money. I know that when you sign the contract with Jace, all of the pr
"First of all, there should only be only one CEO in the group, which would be me. Everyone else must obey me, other than you of course."Simon nodded, "Of course. I know that you're worried about Flynn and Felipe. I'm here to overlook them. Whatever position Jace had, you would have the same as him.""Secondly, I can't just leave and abandon the Norah Group. If I were to manage Yuriel Group, it would be hard for me to balance between the two. So why don't we form an alliance and be corporate partners? It would be a win-win situation to avoid any speculations from outsiders."That thought crossed Simon's mind too, and it was exactly what Flynn and Felipe worried about the most. Since Sage proposed this condition, it proved hat she had thought about it for quite some time and did not want to randomly agree to anything without knowing what she had at hand. She even thought about it carefully from different aspects and had the ability to look at the bigger picture.Simon was impressed
