It was almost New Year's Eve, and the box office of The Double Life of Veronique was continuing to rise to a new record. The review of the movie was also stable at 9.1. The director, editor, and the production team were all very satisfied with the review and result.

Other than attending the premiere, Sage did not participate in the rest of the publicity events. She was too busy and unable to free up her time. However, she would still look at the movie review when she was free. After preparing to receive criticism from the public, she was surprised to find out how friendly the public had commented on her.

"Probably, they did not have a high expectation of me, so they could easily accept my acting skills as long as it was not too lame," Sage said.

Luther widened his eyes. "What? Have you seen you in the movie? You were great! All the Bennett ended up in tears as we watched the movie. Suzy is trending now! So wicked yet passionate."

Sage smiled as she did not feel the way Luther felt.

    With a stubborn mind, Primrose said, "This is my daughter's film debut. If I had known she was so good at acting, I would train her to be a child star."Sawyer could not help and refuted, "Chitose had told you so many times. You were the one who was against it."She said, staring at Sawyer with her teary eyes, "I was just trying to protect her. You were the one who had to bring her everywhere you did. So scared that she would fall down or accidentally knock over something. So protective of her. You won't even allow me to scold her or punish her. You are not qualified to be commenting on me!"Sawyer was not a match for his wife. "Hmph!"Primrose replied the same thing, "Hmph!"Both of them acted like a pair of primary students fighting over something childish. Jack shook his head and sighed. Then he whispered to Jace, "This is why I don't want to get married. Too annoying.""Oh really? I think it's very interesting." Jace's eyes were sparkling as he was very jealous of the chemist

    Sage sat up in the bed suddenly. Her legs cramped from her sudden force."Ouch…" She frowned in pain and clicked into the Twidder account named ForeverEighteen. What a narcissist name! It reminded her too much of her mother!Sage could not stop thinking about it once the seeds of doubt were planted in her heart. She shuddered at the thought of it and got goosebumps all over. Then, she jumped out of bed and took her laptop over. She began to check on the motherly fan's account. She tried hacking, but she could not break through! The account owner had set up layers of protection, keeping her information safe. D*mn!Sage's eyes were red. She called Luther right away. "Luther, remember the motherly fan you told me about?""Yeah. What's up?" Luther said, "Hey, I'm giving out movie tickets to the Skye Hotel staff. They'll go to the theatre and support you. I'm so generous, isn't it?""Forget about that for now! Quickly help me check this Twidder account's information!"Luther was s

She directly asked, "Do you have news about our parents already?"Tim frowned a little and looked at her with a calm face. He pressed his lips slightly. When he raised his han

    The people in Tovres were not accustomed to spending their New Year this way. It was Yale's first time watching the New Year Gala programs on TV. He did not understand many of the jokes, so he tried hard to listen and understand.Sage was starting to feel sleepy from watching the shows, but she smiled as she turned her head and saw Yale's concentration. He looked so serious, like he was watching some military documentary."Yale, aren't you sleepy yet?"Yale finally shifted his gaze from the TV to Sage. He shook his head softly and said, "Not yet."Sage looked at his restrained look and quietly scolded Tim in her heart. Yale was Tim's friend and brother-in-law, but he went upstairs to sleep alone instead of entertaining him."Let's talk," Sage suggested. Otherwise, she did not know how to spend the long night.Yale's eyes glowed beautifully in the white light.

    Sage laughed so hard that tears came out of her eyes. The Iceman was really an iceman.Yale did not know what she was laughing at. However, his mood brightened when he saw her smile. He smiled too."Let's try again!" Sage tossed the coin to Yale and told him to toss it. Yale placed the coin at the edge of his nail, put his index finger against it, and flipped the coin.The fifty-cent count leaped into the air and flew high in midair. When it fell back, he caught it with precision.Yale opened his palm. This time, it was the heads."Ah, the heads. It's your turn to ask." Sage opened a packet of dried mangoes and munched them while waiting for Yale to ask her a question. Yale gave it a thought and said, "Tell me about your childhood. I heard from your brother that you were a pain in the *ss when you were a kid.""Me? No, don't listen to him!" Sage repeatedly denied it, "I'm just a little bit naughty, but I'm not a pain in the *ss! I'm better behaved than the boys."Yale chuckl

You gave me a home. Thanks for being my sunshine by my side." Primrose listened attentively and covered her face with her hands shyly. "Oh, you're so serious. You're making me blush…"She peeked from her hands and showed her eyes. "But I'm not the sun. I'm your moon. The moon fairies always live on the moon."Sawyer toasted and drank the wine. He faintly said, "But you're not a moon fairy.""Hm? Then what am I?" Primrose asked. She sounded like she was already drunk.Sawyer said solemnly, "You're my woman, wife, and child's mother.""Oh? I already have a child? I have a child at such a young age? Oh…" She was completely drunk by then.Sawyer said, "You don't just have one. You have six."Primrose gasped. "Wow.

    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.

    Sage spread out the notebook and looked at the blurred handwriting. She slowly read it out loud, "Step one, conquer her with sweet talking.

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.

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.
