It seemed that she still cared for him.

"Grandpa!"

Sage ran into the house and was greeted by Wayne, squatting with a cigarette in his mouth. He was so startled by Sage that he had almost choked.

"Has the hairpin been fixed?"

Sage strode across the room toward the hairpin that was placed on the desk, and it was completely unharmed. It seemed like it had never been broken in the first place.

Sage's eyes widened as she lifted it off the desk and took a closer look at it. There was not a single trace of it ever being broken.

"Grandpa, your restoration skill has improved once again. There was no trace of it ever being broken."

Wayne puffed out the smoke and said, "I'd take that compliment if I could, but that wasn't my doing."

"What do you mean?"

Sage looked at her grandpa, confused.

Wayne took another puff and responded, "I told you, that was no ordinary wood. Maybe there was some sort of spiritual power within it, and its own restoration power was stronger than any other wood."

    "What's going on?" Kane asked when he saw how the veins were visible on Sage's forehead. "You were fine just a moment ago. Where did the headache come from?" Kane frowned."From severe stress."Ross uttered deeply, "She's also been physically spent lately. That on top of mental stress would naturally cause a migraine."Luther and Kane's gazes were sharp as blades as they glared at Sage.Their faces darkened."You're going to drive yourself nuts one of these days!"Luther reached his hands out furiously in an attempt to knock Sage's temple but retrieved it when he thought of her migraine.Sage was in so much pain that she was physically unable to utter a word.Laura looked at her worriedly and said, "She just took some medicine. Let's go outside and let her rest."She then placed a plate of fruits by the bedside and rubbed Sage's head gently."Have some fruits if you're hungry."Laura was an angel compared to her aggressive brothers.Sage stretched her lips and smiled forc

    It felt like a wooden stick.A hoarse, weak voice was heard uttering into his ears, "Take care of her, for me."Who was she?Yale knew without having to ask.That wooden hairpin belonged to Sage.However, he had no knowledge of its history.Did the hairpin signify their past in some way?Jace had a long dream.In his dream, a wispy figure crouched before the tomb, sobbing endlessly. Her shoulders shivered uncontrollably.The sound of her cry was heart-wrenching.He slowly approached the tombstone. Upon having a closer look at the portrait on the tombstone, he realized it was him.His face was serious, his brows knitted tightly together.Jace had forgotten when the photo was taken.The figure that was weeping looked even more familiar, and he could picture the face just by looking at her back.It was the person he had been yearning for, day and night; it was the person who had his soul.Was Sage crying for him?Not only was she crying, but she was also scolding him.She

    No, that was not Sage.Jace slowly snapped back into his senses.The woman before him looked almost identical to Sage; her eyes, her nose, they looked like they had been sculpted with the same mold.However, she looked way older than Sage, a charming and mature lady.Who was she?Why did she look so much like Sage?Jace had all sorts of thoughts running across his mind when the man walked into the room.The man was well-built with refined facial features, and his gaze was sharp as a blade; an attractive and youthful man in his fifties.He emitted a noticeable powerful aura.Jace was stunned upon seeing the man.It was a face that he was familiar with.Jace had seen the man's face in television, newspapers, and financial magazines before. He was crowned the 'Genius Businessman', the founder of the Norah Group— Sawyer Norah.Sage's father.Which meant that the beautiful lady standing next to him was Sage's mother?Jace could not believe that he would see Sage's late parents

    "I don't cook." Primrose said stubbornly, "Do you want me to set the kitchen on fire?"Jack was at a loss for words.He was reminded of Primrose's attempt to roast some walnuts a few days ago, where she had almost burnt the whole kitchen down. Jack sighed defeatedly and went to the kitchen unwillingly.Jack turned back before disappearing into the kitchen and said, "Don't bully my student.""Of course." Primrose waved him away and added, "I will."She had put in a lot of effort to save him. Of course, she would bully and tease him all she could to avenge her daughter.Primrose sat on the chair where Jack was sitting and looked at Jace.He was pretty handsome. Even though he was sick, his facial features were bright and refined.Sage was just like her mother. They both preferred handsome men."You know who I am, right?"Jace moved his lips and struggled to utter, "Y…e…s.""You don't have to speak, just nod and shake your head."Jace nodded promptly after."Good boy," said P

After ten balloons, she felt like she had run for five meters. Sage lay on the sofa and started

    Hence, Nigel's father gave Sean a huge sum of money as a wedding gift.Holding the envelope of money in his hand, Sean understood his father-in-law's intention; hence he received the gift gratefully and thanked him, "Thanks, dad."After Nigel's father had left, Nigel looked at the thick envelope and teased, "You're now one of us after receiving the money from my dad."Sean arched one of his brows and said, "Aren't I already considered as one of the Jetts?

He wanted to take a hot shower and hurry up to bed.However, he did not expect his friends to barge into their room before he could stop them."Woohoo, first night together! First night together!"They were chanting together.Nigel felt annoyance thumping in his veins. With his eyes shot wide open, he hissed, "Do we really have to do this for two adult guys?""Nonsense, of course, you'd need to."Luther added, "Spending the first night together is the 'essence' of a wedding, don't you all agree?""Yes!" Everyone in the room agreed at the same time.Nigel was wordless.He wanted to kick all of them out of the room, but their eldest brother was around, so he did not dare to say anything. He had no choice but to send signals to Sean and ask him for help.Sean, howeve

    "Tim broke the rules!" Sage complained.Tim responded, "Yeah, so I'm out."He then strode out of the room to have a smoke.No one dared to stop him as he was the eldest.Sean turned and started walking toward Seth. He was touching Seth all over.

The crowd was not going to let them go easily.Irritation pricked at Nigel, and he finally exploded, "You brats, are you not planning to get married in the future? Aren't you worried that karma will get back at you? Now get out of my room. We're going to bed now!"An on-edged Nigel then kicked all of them out of the room.The party was finally over.Sean was still blindfolded as he pulled Nigel into his arms from behind. Leaning close to Nigel's ears, he chuckled, "To be honest, I was able to recognize your smell, and I knew where you wer

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.

    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

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.

    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.
