Jace arched his brow. Did Sage post something on Facelook? That was rare.

Sage rarely posted on Facelook, let alone Jace. He rarely browsed it because he was uninterested in other people's business. He was only interested in Sage's.

When he clicked into her Facelook, he saw a post of nine photos of three women wearing classy dresses. They had their hairdo done classically. They had sunglasses and carried small bags with them. They posed sitting in a yellow car and looked like they came out of a historical film.

Jace locked his gaze on Sage. He kept browsing her photos back and forth and looked at her continuously.

It was his first time seeing Sage dressed so classically in extravagant dresses. It showed off her curves and temperament. One had to be confident enough to pull this look off.

Sage changed into a total of three classic looks. One was dark-green colored with leaves imprints. She leaned by the window and looked beautiful in the photo with the blue sky outside. It reminde

    Luna was stunned and shook a little in disbelief. She could not believe it. Freya's new husband was not a mediocre doctor but a world-renowned doctor. She even laughed at them before! Was she too ignorant? Luna bit her lips hard. Why? How could she be so blessed? Why could Freya always have such a good life?The world has always been unfair. She refused to beg Freya regardless of the circumstance! They had fought for half of their lives. In the end, was she destined to admit defeat to her? Never!"You should give up. Even if I die, I'm not going to beg Freya." Luna stubbornly looked at Dane. "Worse come to worst, you'll stay in the wheelchair forever. I'll support your living."Dane was sweating in pain. He grabbed Luna's hand and begged, "Sis, I don't want to spend the rest of my life in a wheelchair! I might as well die!""Why don't you die then?!" Luna was furious. "How much more do I have to contribute to the family? You're my brother, not my son. I had to help pay your debts

When he saw Lucas standing near his house, he remembered that Dane got beaten up and his legs broken.Jace's face sank in annoyance. The Yuriel family ignored Lucas again and shut him off, so he leaned against the wall smoking a cigarette with a frown.He straightened and showed a relieved smile on his tired face when he heard the car stopping and Jace approaching. "Jace."Lucas seemed to have aged a lot after the neverending devastating events that came one after another. His hair was completely white."What are you doing here? Why are you here again?" Jace looked at him without expression and treated him like a stranger. Lucas forced a smile and said weakly, "I calle

    Luna got upset and yelled at Francesca, "Will you stop it? I'm on the phone!" Francesca was shocked and dared not speak after that. Luna was furious. She knew Lucas would not be able to get Freya's help, but she was worried that the previously married couple would reignite their old love again. Luna kept calling him because she was conflicted and anxious. She had no idea where Lucas had gone. They were already at the health center, but Roy was nowhere to be found.The health center wanted to arrange for another doctor to diagnose Dane, but the Zelda family insisted on Roy. They would not let another doctor treat him."We want Dr. Duncan to see us! We'll pay whatever it costs!"The nurse said, "Dr. Duncan seldom comes down the mountain. His appointment for this year is full. All his patients came for him. Even if staff want to book him, we can't. Many rich people would like to buy the health center to see him, but they couldn't either."The nurse's remark made Luna and the res

    'Oh my.' Sage shuddered at the last sentence on the card. Why was Jace so cheesy?!The message next looked more normal. 'I've had the shoes cleaned. You can wear them.'Sage picked a pair of pink slippers with fluffy rabbit ears. She put it on and felt like she was stepping on a cloud. It was soft and comfortable."What do you think? Does it look good?" Sage asked Louis. Louis glanced at the slippers. He thought the slippers looked similar to those worn by his six-year-old niece. Was Mister Jace treating Miss Sage like a little girl?"It's nice but a little childish," Louis answered honestly.Sage gave him a look as a reply.Louis noticed the coldness in Sage's gaze and quickly changed his tune. "But even the most childish shoes will look good and valuable on your feet."He was clearly trying to flatter her and speaking against his real feelings, but Sage nodded with pleasure anyway. She observed the slippers on her feet for a moment and agreed, "Well, I think so too."Louis

    "Mister Jace, we're done with Mister Spencer's hospitalization. You just need to pay the extra fee." Jace responded to the nurse, "Okay. I'll be there shortly."Sage's heart jumped. When Jace spoke to her again, she asked, "Are you at the hospital?"She heard someone calling Mister Spencer in the background just now. "Is Lucas…""Myocardial infarction plus stomach cancer." Jace's voice sounded a little impassive on the phone. His voice had no trace of emotions. "The doctor said the cancer cells are spreading quickly. He doesn't have much time left."Sage suddenly remembered her last meeting with Lucas. She knew he was unwell but did not expect it to be this bad. At that point, she did not know what to say. It was inappropriate to gloat at Lucas's misfortune, but she would not sympathize with him either.To be frank, she never liked Lucas. She could not feel any pity for his current condition. She just felt sorry for Jace and pitied him for having a father like Lucas."Sage," Ja

    Luna never expected to receive Lucas's bad news. She kept waiting for his phone call, but instead, she learned about his hospitalization.She could not be bothered about Dane and rushed to the hospital in a hurry. She learned from the doctor that Lucas had stomach cancer and would not live long. In addition, he had a myocardial infarction and could die at any time.The bad news struck her like a thunderbolt. Luna was in so much despair that she almost fainted.She never understood why she had such a tragic fate. It was the same with her brother and Lucas. Problems kept coming up one after another. She could not have a moment to rest at all.She was exhausted. She was really tired of all this. Luna sat on the bench outside the hospital for a long time before she calmed down. When she entered the ward and saw Lucas, she could hardly recognize him.Lucas was once a handsome and elegant man. Why had he suddenly become such a thin and bony old man?What had happened in just a few da

    Lucas called out to her again. "Luna." "We should get a divorce," he said.His words made Luna feel a loud bang in her heart. It was as if someone tore her apart by flying a cannonball at her, crushing her heart.Luna stopped dead in her tracks, turned around, and glared at Lucas with a vicious look. "Are you crazy? You still want to divorce me?""Yes." Lucas looked at her and said in a low voice, "I don't want to drag you down with me.""If you don't want to trouble me, then who?" Luna's eyes reddened. "Lucas, you can't be putting your hopes in your ex-wife, Freya, right? Do you think she'll care about you? You're long divorced!"She went mad and said fiercely, "She has another man now. She has a new husband. Do you know who her new husband is? He's a great doctor from Mostal. A world-renowned doctor who brings miracles. A normal patient won't ever have a chance to see him. His annual salary and social status are probably much higher than yours. Do you think she'll still rememb

Those outside wanted to break in, while people inside wanted to break out of the siege.'Sage and Jace had been through marriage once. In their first marriage, they were both losers.

It's a good day for this number."Jace suddenly came up with a good idea, "Let's have a daughter and call her Little Nine, okay?"'Did he just come up with that? How brave,' Sage thought and

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.
