Sage froze a little. She stared at Luther for a moment and finally managed to say something."

"You're so annoying." Then, she lowered her head and went to work. She refused to continue the topic.

"I know I shouldn't have brought it up," Luther put his phone away and walked to Sage. He leaned over her desk and looked at Sage with a sidelong glance. "I just hope to see you move on some day. I'll bring him up more until the day you stop responding. When you stop reacting to his name, it means you've moved on."

Moved on. She thought she had let go of him, but it was easier said than done.

"Whether you can accept it or not or let go, it's a fact that he's gone."

Sage said indifferently, "I just don't think he'll die like that. It's too rash and irresponsible."

"Who says it's not? But there's no use saying anything anymore. You can only say that life is short and enjoy your life while you can."

Luther breathed a soft sigh. "Anyway, you can continue with your work. I'll go check on He

She spotted Zachary right away, reached out her hands, and grabbed him by his collar, causing Zachary yelping in pain.The crowd, however, turned silent."Ma'am." Louis was the first to regain his composure. Fixing his crumpled suit, he greeted Sage politely.Sage shot a cold glare at him. Louis immediately lowered his head, walked over to where she was, and stood behind her.Mister Holmes covered his nose with a napkin and his hand was covered in blood."Sage, it's painful…"Sage still grabbed onto Zachary's collar from behind and he was nearly out of breath.Sage though had no intentions of letting him go. With a cold tone, she asked, "What's going on?"Zachary shot a glare at Mister Holmes and seethed, "I didn't like the way he

Anger thrummed in his veins as he heard Mister Holmes's voice again through the video."If it wasn't for Sage who stopped me, I would've ripped off that stinky mouth of his!"The siblings were about to rush out the door."Stay there."Sage stopped them."Sage," with a straight face, Zachary said, "you might not be bothered by this but we are!""I'm the one being bad-mouthed but why are the both of you so enraged?"Sage looked nonchalant on the outsid

    The car was quickly filled with a smell like urine.Holmes must wet himself from being threatened.***Holmes immediately lodged a report to the police saying that someone attempted to murder him.However, there were no obvious signs of injuries or bruises on his body and the CCTV at the parking lot was somehow broken. Hence, there was no evidence to prove that he was attacked.He had no choice but to suffer in silence.Holmes could not let it go and went straight to Yuriel's mansion. Counting on the fact that he was one of the seniors in the Yuriel Group, he demanded that Grandpa Yuriel speak out for him."I've already heard about it."Grandpa Yuriel went on calmly, "Holmes, I thought that you'd know better now since you've been working for us for quite some time. But why are you proving yourself to be less wise than both of my grandsons?"Holmes expected Grandpa Yuriel to comfort him but he was questioned instead."Sir, what are you trying to say?"Holmes could feel anger

    Yale simply pulled into a smile.Was she hard to handle?Yale thought that it was not too bad.He even found Sage adorable.***"That's about it."Sage looked at the x-ray films and said, "Good. He's recovering better than I expected."She then asked, "What did your master say?"Quest replied, "Master said the same thing as you. Recovering doesn't take only one or two days. It's a marathon and we have to do it slowly. The patient also has to have a strong and positive mentality to go through this and he would need someone to take care of him."Sage looked conflicted."I can't free up a lot of time and I won't be able to keep him company during the physio sessions. Do you have anyone else in mind?"Quest replied, "I have several people in mind. Melody also wants to go to town. She's been complaining that there's nothing else to do at Mostal."Sage raised her brows. "Isn't Yoel here at Mostal? Why is there nothing else to do?""Because he left. And that is why Melody wants t

If not, he would have given a good beating to the guys."Well, he's still charming."Sage went on, "Just that he wouldn't be able to move around freely for the time being. You'd need to rest. Don't end up like your brother."Jim looked at Sage, puzzled. "I thought my brother's leg recovered?""If it wasn't for me, would his leg have gotten better?"Sage glared at him and went on, "You better take good care of your leg. If not, I'l

    His teammates immediately stop in their tracks.They wondered why Jim acted strange today.He was not being himself today.It was as if he was a ticking bomb."Get over here and help me up.His teammates went over to him and held him. "Let's go!"He had his head hung low all the time and he did not dare to look at Sage.Right when the trio reached the door, a voice called out to them. "Stop right there!"The trio immediately stopped in their tracks.Jim's entire body tensed up as he shut his eyes tightly.Inwardly, he thought to himself: 'Sh*t, sh*t, sh*t!'Sage then said to the coach, "Sir, would you and the boys wait outside?

    Sage stared quietly at Jim. She moved her lips slightly, wanting to say something."But I know that your heart's with someone else."Jim continued without giving Sage a chance to say anything. "And even though he isn't around anymore, he still left a scar on your heart. I just want you to know that you deserve the best and I hope that you'll stay happy.""Thank you."Sage felt tears welling in her eyes. She walked over to Jim, wrapped her arms around him, and said, "Take good care of yourself.

"I'm looking forward to when the day comes."Sage smiled."Mm, me too."The coach and the boys had their ears stuck against the door and Luther too tried to listen to their conversation.No

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

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 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.
