Freya slowly sipped her tea. "Also, when I divorced Lucas, there was some property we didn't divide clearly. Now, I want to take it back."

She looked at Jace. "Do you have any objection to that?"

Jace shook his head. "I don't have a problem with that."

"Good."

Freya said to Sage, "Sage, can you please get Sean to recommend a lawyer specializing in divorce proceedings? I know it's impossible to get it all back after these years, but I don't want him to spend the money on his new wife and child. I'll take what I can get back."

"Sure." Sage got up. "I'll speak to Sean right away."

Then, Sage gave Sean a phone call.

Freya looked at Jace and told him to come over. She took his hand and said, "Son, are you really happy that I'm with Roy?"

Jace nodded. "I am. Really. I'm happier than anyone else for you. You've finally found your happiness. Besides, Uncle Roy is Sage's uncle too. He's one of us."

Freya smiled. "Yes. He's one of us. I'm trying to get our families closer. What about

    Luna could not hear anything Zimmer said next. Her hand dropped from her ears weakly as if she had no strength."What's wrong?" Sienna was still concerned about her show. "What did he say?" Luna felt stiff and cold as her mind went blank.The chief was replaced… How could it be?Lucas had been the chief of Universal Channel for so many years. He was well established in his position. How could he be replaced just like that?"Hurry up and tell me! What's going on!"Sienna grabbed Luna's arm so hard in a panic that it hurt her. Luna finally woke up from the pain. When she saw the agitated Sienna, she slapped her right on her face."Slap!" The slap hit Sienna's face so hard that she staggered and fell to the floor. Luna shouted coldly. "Shut up! That's enough!"Sienna covered her face and finally stopped annoying Luna. Luna stopped talking to her and picked up her phone to call Lucas. Lucas still did not answer the phone. In the end, he simply turned it off. He was deliberatel

    She felt slightly relieved to know that Freya was not getting married to a better man. "Forget it. Isn't it just the position as a chief? If he can't be the chief of Universal Channel, he can just work for another channel. He has connections anyway. What do we have to be afraid of?"The assistant sighed again. "Can't you see the seriousness of the present? If his friend can help him, he won't be replaced without knowledge."He sighed and added, "Let me tell you this. The last time you went to the Yuriel family's old residence and caused a scene, you got Miss Freya into the police station. You completely pissed off the Yuriel family, and now, they want to deal with Chief Spencer. He's in deep trouble now and can't save himself.""Are you blaming me now?" Luna's face turned cold."No, I'm not, but Chief Spencer is very unhappy with you now. I advise you to stay low and quietly stay at home to protect the baby. Let Chief Spencer have the peace of mind to deal with things."Luna fel

    Sage and Jace were watching the talk show in their Looming District apartment too. However, they were not watching the talk show broadcast on Universal Channel. Instead, they were watching her interview with Kurt, which was titled 'Farmer Stepdad Accuses His Daughter, a Big Star, of Being Mean'.The title of the show was clearly smear-mongering to ruin Suki's reputation. In the episode, Kurt appeared as an almost fully bald middle-aged man who sat on the couch and kept demanding that society give him justice. A host should tell the truth of the story. However, Sienna, as the host, led Kurt to dish the dirt about Suki. She was adding fuel to the fire and was completely unprofessional.Sage and Jace's faces were grim throughout the whole episode. "What nonsense!" Sage was furious.Sienna must be delusional to think that she could make a name for herself with her talk show. Did she think she could take over Luna's position and become the most popular host on Universal Channel? Did

    Sage's were cold. As she expected, Brody was also a troublemaker.Brody continued to make more trouble out on the streets while his father, Lionel, was still stuck in prison. What a good son he was!Suki gradually calmed down after learning that Brody and Kurt had been caught. She leaned on Seth's shoulder and closed her eyes weakly."I don't want to see that b*stard again. I never want to see him again…""You won't see him again. Calm down."Seth soothed Suki softly. How could he let the woman he loved go through the pain of her youth again? He would never acknowledge a man like that as his father-in-law.He made up his mind to let Kurt spend the rest of his life in prison. He could enjoy his old age there!Sage brought Suki into her room and had a heart-to-heart talk with her.Seth went to the wine cooler and brought a bottle of wine and two glasses. He said to Jace, "Have a drink with me?""Okay." Jace readily agreed.Seth poured the wine. After that, he raised his glass t

    Lucas finally returned to his apartment late at night. He was exhausted to the point he was feeling weak.Luna could not sleep. She was searching for various news and information about what was going on. She kept calling Lucas so much that her phone was almost out of battery.When she heard the sound of the door unlocking, she immediately turned her head. She looked momentarily ecstatic to see Lucas back.She stood up and said, "You’re finally back. I called you so many times. Why didn’t you answer? Why did you turn off your phone?" She was happy, but she had to complain."My phone is out of battery," Lucas explained faintly. Then, he took off his shoes and went into the bathroom.Sienna and Luna stood in the living room and looked at each other in dismay. They became uneasy and worried because of Lucas's serious expression. They felt like the situation seemed to be out of their control. Things were becoming more and more difficult.When Lucas was done using the toilet, he came

    Sienna was so used to acting coquettishly with men that she forgot this was her aunt's husband.Before Luna could criticize her, Lucas spoke first. He said soberly, "I'm afraid your show will be canceled. It's not just the show. You'll lose your job as the host too."Thump! Thump! Thump!Lucas's words struck Sienna like three thunderbolts, leaving her stunned. "What?" Luna could not help but frown at Lucas's words. "Lucas, it can't be that bad, right?"Lucas laughed. "I've been kicked out as chief, not to mention a little host like her. Do you really think the Zelda family runs the Universal Channel?"He stood up and went into the room, leaving Luna and Sienna behind. Both of their faces turned ugly.…Seth stayed with Suki at the apartment in the Looming District.Sage wanted to give them some space and leave them alone for a while. Since she was worried about Freya, she took a trip back to the old residence with Jace in the middle of the night."Did he sign it?” Freya re

    It was dark at night. Luna went into the bedroom with a tray of freshly cooked food."Honey, let's have some supper." Lucas sat on the bay window in the bedroom with one leg curled up. He held a cigarette between his fingers and smoked. He looked haggard and much older.When he heard Luna's voice, he turned his head slowly and looked at her. Then, he said indifferently, "I don't have an appetite. You can put it there."Luna wanted to say something more, but after seeing his face, she chose to shut up and put the food on the coffee table.She supported her waist with her hand and walked toward him. Then, she sat on the side of the bay window.When she reached out her hand to touch his face, he avoided her touch.He frowned slightly. "Stay away from me. The smoke will choke the baby." Luna put down her hand with a little frustration.She began softly, "Lucas, can you tell me what's going on? Why did you quit as the chief?"Lucas's mouth twitched at her question. He had a mo

    Luna did not argue this time and nodded obediently. "Hmm. I know. I'll talk to them.""You should really be worried for me." Lucas raised his hand and touched Luna's belly. He said without looking up, "I'll have nothing soon. You better be prepared. It's not too late to leave now."A loud thud pounded in her heart. "You… What do you mean?" Lucas finally looked up with his cold and red eyes. "I've been busy with Freya's divorce lawsuit for the past few days."Luna had heard about it from his assistant, Jenning, but she did not quite understand it. "Didn't you two divorced long ago? What's with the lawsuit now? Is she trying to mess with you?"Lucas frowned slightly. He realized he was still unable to stand hearing others badmouth Freya."We divorced in a hurry back then. We left without dividing our assets properly. Now, she wants her share, and there's nothing wrong with that.""What do you mean by her share?"When it came to money, Luna became anxious and shook Lucas's hand a

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

Jace thought and got a headache.Seeing that Sage was about to open her mouth again, he panicked and kissed her directly to shut her up.Dean was stunned by Jace's quick action.

    "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.
