Jace knew who Sage meant when she said 'they'. He just did not expect them to come back so soon. It seemed that their operation to get Shawn was going well and ended early.He said without any hesitation, "I'm going to Salem City with you."Sage said, "No need. You're back after a long time. Spend some time with your family. How can you leave right after coming back?"Jace frowned. "But you...I'm worried about letting you go back alone.""Tim sent a plane over to get me. Ross is also in Nadeem City, so he's coming with me.""But...""No more buts." Sage breathed a soft sigh. "Our family reunion is not as warm as yours. It may be a bloody storm. You'd better not see it." Jace arched his brow slightly.It so happened that Primrose had said the same thing. He did not quite understand how a family meeting could be so serious as to be a bloody storm.Although Jace insisted, Sage refused to take him back to Salem City with her. She looked like she was about to get angry, so Jace ha
Sage knew about Wayne's story. It reminded her of her days in the countryside as a kid. The family used to be fun and lively which came with a lot of bickering. She could not help but laugh as she was reminded of those days."Stop laughing and tell me the truth. Are there any updates about your parents?" Wayne narrowed his eyes. "Are we rushing back to Salem City to meet them?" Sage looked at Wayne with amazement. "Grandpa, this is as expected of you. You've figured out everything haven't you. But why aren't you surprised at all?""I am surprised!" Wayne said, "But if Jace can come back to life. Why can't my son and daughter-in-law do so?"Sage could not help but laugh at Wayne's tone. She gave him a thumbs up. "Your logic is perfect."Wayne had a smart guess that Sawyer and Primrose were alive. However, when he got the news from Sage, he was still a little excited and fell silent.Wayne looked out the car window and smoked. His lips trembled a little and his eyes turned red.R
Sage did not know what to say when Jace admitted his mistake that honestly.She hated it when people deceived her, but she was not so angry after learning the truth from Zachary. Jace was afraid that she would ignore him, so he used Zachary's account to keep in contact with her. She only brought it up because she suddenly thought about it. However, her anger cooled down as soon as he apologized."Whatever." Sage had a big heart and did not mind it. "If you lie to me again, I'll…""I won't, I swear." Jace assured urgently. His heart nervously pounded nervously for fear that she would no longer talk to him.His desire to survive seemed skewed. This reminded Sage of the old days. When Mom was angry with Dad, Dad would always be the first to admit his mistake and apologize.Sometimes, even she could not stand to look at his pathetic state. Most of the time, it was simply Mom's fault, but Dad took all the blame anyway. However, it was easy to coax her mother. The fight would always e
The car slowly made its way to Rosa Garden. Sage had just sent another message to Jace. Then, she saw a row of luxury cars parked in the large and spacious courtyard.Her brothers were not the only ones who came, their fathers had arrived too.They were all here?! Sage's heart skipped a beat as she followed Wayne and Ross out of the car and walked inside.When the door opened, Luther walked out and greeted them with a worried look on his face. "You're finally back! Come in!"Sage was nervous. When she stepped in, the first thing she smelled was the scent of blood.It was not very heavy, and it seemed to be deliberately masked by the smell of tobacco and alcohol. Even so, Sage noticed the smell of the blood at once and her heart pounded worriedly.Her fathers were in the living room too. Her second father Connor Hudson, third father Rowan Hector, fifth father Sergio Bennett, and even eldest father Senior Shelby were here!There were a few people who were drinking and chatting a
Primrose answered her but insisted she could not hear her. Sage pouted, but she did not mind it it. After all, Primrose was finally home. Sage raised her voice and shouted again, "Mom!"Sage's brothers were lost for words. All of them cast a look of disgust at her. Why was Sage calling her mom over and over again? Primrose shouted, "What are you shouting for? Can't you see I'm busy? Find your dad!"Sage was rendered speechless. She turned to Sawyer and complained, "Daddy, Mom is bullying me again.""It's okay, honey." Sawyer glanced at Primrose and whispered to Sage, "Don't mind her, she seems busy." Sage nodded gently, but her eyes were still a little red. She dropped her head and rubbed her head against Sawyer's knees. "Dad, I missed you two so much."Sawyer raised his big and warm palm and gently patted her head. "We miss you too. We missed you every day after."Unfortunately, their touching moment was interrupted by Kane's tragic scream again. "Stop shouting!" Primrose
Mason took off the blood-covered glove and faintly smiled. "You're welcome. Fortunately, it didn't hurt your bones, but you'll have to talke a few days off for a while."That was when Sage realized that Tim had been shot in the left shoulder. Her heart tightened. She stared at his wound and bit her lip."Did Shawn do this?" Sage asked with fiery eyes. She could no longer contain her long-suppressed emotions. She burst out, "Why did you hide it from me? Why won't you take me with you?!"Everyone turned to her in unison. Sage's tears fell uncontrollably. "Am I really that useless? I can help too. Even if I can't be Shawn, I can still help you block the bullets!"The ward suddenly fell silent and solemn because of Sage's outrage.Sage covered her face with her hands and sobbed uncontrollably.Her brothers looked at each other and was at a loss. The fathers who heard her cries rushed to the door and looked inside.No one dared to speak when the little tiger got angry. Primrose
Finally, the surgery was done. No complications occurred during the surgery and it was a successful surgery. Sage was relieved and her whole posture was able to relax.As for the time when she got hit by her mother, she decided to forgive her and to not dwell on it because she had a big heart. Or so she tried to convince herself of. However, she could not let go of the fact that they had been alive for four years, but she was in the dark about it.With her arms crossed in front of her chest, she glanced over at those fathers who were sitting on the couch with her squinted eyes. "Be honest with me. Did all of you know they were alive and did not tell any of us about it?"Seth, Nigel, and Luther looked at them in unison. Their faces showed they were slightly angry or extremely furious. The godfathers felt the fierce look from their kids and felt guilty so they quickly looked in another direction to avoid making eye-contacts with the kids.Sergio retorted, "I won't say I knew about it
It was the first time in many years for it to happen. Sawyer looked at everyone and explained lightly, "It's not that we don't want to tell any of you. We were badly hurt then. Not because of the injury from the accident but when we were fighting with Shawn. When we drifted to a deserted island, we basically lived a primitive lifestyle. We had to eat insects and harvest honey to survive. We only got in touch with the outer world about a year ago."Everyone's faces looked horrified as they listened in on the conversation. Sawyer was never a person to ever exaggerate on such things. Although he said it with a very easy and relaxed manner, they could easily tell that Sawyer and Primrose never had it easy over the past few years.The rest of them had went through a lot of hardships to get to where they were now. However, there was no saying that they could survive once they were stranded on a deserted island. Not everyone could have the ability to adapt to primitive life or to survive ou
