For some reason, Sage calmed down when she heard from Jace that her parents were still alive.

She was not as shocked as she thought she would be. Perhaps, she already knew that they were still alive somewhere.

What puzzled her the most was the fact that her parents saved Jace! How did they even cross paths?

"You guys..."

Sage did not even know how to phrase her question. "Did you go into another timeline with them?"

When Yale interrogated Jekyll, he heard about the concept of a parallel timeline from him. This was still stuck in Sage's mind.

"Another timeline?" Jace looked puzzled. Then, he shook his head and explained, "No. When I woke up, I was on an island."

He smiled bitterly. "When I woke up, I saw my teacher. He taught me how to paint when I was young. I thought I was already dead, and then I saw another you."

Sage's eyes narrowed. "Another me?"

"Yeah. She looked like another version of you."

Jace smiled. "Aunt Primrose looks almost exactly like you. You two look so muc

    When Sage and Jace came downstairs, everyone downstairs was gone.Firstly, they were too busy dealing with Sage's photos scandal online. Sage did not care about it anymore, but they could not ignore it.Secondly, they left to give Sage and Jace some space. Sage only had her eyes on Jace ever since he returned.

He always wanted to eat her cooking, but he could not.Sage made a few of her specialty dishes. While she cooked, Jace stayed beside her and helped her. Looking at his knife work, she could tell he had a lot of practice.Sawyer and Primr

Many broken functions had to be restored, which meant processing these complicated feelings.Both of them took a long time to finish the meal.Sage had not eaten properly for the past six months. After many irregular meals, her appetite shrunk. She quickly felt full after eating a little.However, she ate quite a lot that night. Meanwhile, Jace kept eating.Sage thought he should have eaten his fill by then, but he would not stop eating. He ate as if he had been starving for years. He finished all the food to the last bit.He cleaned all the plates on the table.After the last bite, he wiped his mouth and burped.Sage looked up at him.Jace flushed in embarrassment. "Sorry. I couldn't help it. This is the best meal I've had in six months." Sage could not help but smile.When the house telephone rang, Za

    It was getting late at night, and it was time for bed. Sage was not sleepy at all, but it was time to get some rest after a long day of fighting and surviving another death. Besides, she had to go to Nadeem City tomorrow.Sage went upstairs with Jace walking slowly behind her. When they reached the room, Sage stopped. Jace also stopped behind her.When she turned back, she happened to meet his eyes."You..." Sage felt like she still had much to ask him, but her mind went blank when she met Jace's dark and meaningful eyes. Jace answered with a hum, "Hm?""It's nothing." Sage looked away and muttered softly, "We have an early flight in the morning. Let's sleep early."Then, she turned around and headed to her room."Sage," Jace called out to her.Sage turned her head around to him again. "Hm?"Jace looked at her arm and advised, "When you sleep, be careful of the wounds on your arm. Be careful not to touch the water when you wash up. Don't take a bath."Sage was amused by hi

    Sage was speechless and confused. Why would her mom teach Jace how to remove makeup? Was their life on the island that boring?Jace squeezed a dollop of makeup remover into his palm and rubbed it in. Then, he said to Sage, "Close your eyes." Sage closed her eyes and made a leap of faith. 'Forget it! Let's see what he can do!' Jace's palm was covered in thick calluses. It was a little rough when he touched her face. However, her hand was similar to his. She was long used to that sensation.Besides, his movement was much gentler than her own. He seemed… very skillful.Jace started by massaging her face with his hands. He massaged in circles and added some water to his palms. Then, he continued massaging her face and added more water again. He continued this process until the oil-based makeup remover was emulsified into milky white foamy liquid."Okay. We can wash it off now." Sage did not dare to open her eyes. Jace led her to the sink and then treated her like a little child w

    When she opened the door, she saw Jace standing at the door with a worried expression. "What's wrong? Is your wound hurting?"Sage frowned, looking at the dark circles under his eyes. "Did you stay up all night, keeping watch at the door?" she questioned.Jace shook his head. "No. I'm just passing by."'Passing by? Who'd believe you!' thought Sage.Jace scratched his head under Sage's intense glare. He changed his story and said, "I'm just standing here for a little while." Actually, he had not slept all night. He feared he would wake up and go back to the past as if everything was just a dream. He felt relieved when he saw Sage. Only then would he feel rooted in reality.Sage looked at Jace and said nothing.Jace's gaze shifted to Sage's arm and furrowed his brow when he saw blood oozing from the white bandage. "Did the wound open up? Let me see."Sage moved too much when she stretched earlier. The stitch on the wound was slightly affected, but it was not a big issue. J

    "Is that so? Let me see it." Sage pushed Jace away and looked at herself in the mirror. She immediately became speechless.Just look at the two thick and long black lines on her eyebrow! Were they really eyebrows? Was he trying to transform her into something else? Sage's mouth twitched. She tried, but she could not hold back her anger. "Jace! Remove my makeup and redo it!" she yelled at him, and the Old Dried Fish shivered three times in fear.…Jace took a long time and finally finished with Sage's makeup. When he came down the stairs, he could feel his hand shaking.He only learned by watching and had no actual experience, so it was easy to make mistakes.After Sage's coaching and training, he could finally apply the makeup she was satisfied with.At breakfast, Jace was in a good mood because he could tell Sage was in a good mood. The flight they booked for was around ten o'clock in the morning. They had to go to the airport after breakfast. Sage and Jace did not bring any

He would not trade the world for this moment and wished that time could stop at this moment forever.He saw that Sage had changed a lot since his return. She was no longer as cold and distant to him.

Sage had not slept all night because of a certain someone. She was so sleepy, while Jace was full of energy.Jace carried Sage to the bathroom to wash up and brush her teeth. "Open your mouth. 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

    "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.

    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.
