A Relentless Pursuit for Love Chapter 987
Sage concentrated on savoring the desserts in her hands. Her mom used to tell her it was the most basic respect for food.Jace drank a sip of coffee and watched Sage eating with a gentle smile. He always enjoyed watching her eat. The food always tasted better in this quiet and beautiful moment. In a matter of minutes, Sage finished the mochi and pancake.She hummed contentedly and looked at the cream and stain on her hands. As she was about to wash her hands, Jace held them. He gently wiped the cream stain from her fingers with a wet paper towel. He treated her hands like fragile treasures.Sage looked at his slender fingers' movement as he gently wiped her hands in his. Jace's hand looked beautiful, just like a treasure. He was so close to her that she could feel his shallow breathing. It felt like their breathing intertwined in this closeness.By the time he cleaned her hands, her cheeks were red as a tomato. "Enough," she muttered and withdrew her hand, trying to hide. If this

Sage's office was very quiet. Jace was lying on the sofa and sleeping peacefully. Sage felt like the whole world had fallen silent as she looked at his handsome and gentle face. Sage tiptoed in. She did not want to wake him up, so she simply took off her heels at the door and walked barefoot. She sat on the other side of the sofa and wiped her feet with a wet tissue. Then, she put on the slippers Jace had bought for her.As she looked up slightly, she saw Jace's sleeping face again, a little closer this time. Jace's sleeping face was not new to her. She had seen it many times when she took care of him as a caregiver.However, Jace's sleeping face now seemed to be different from his old self.He still had the same black eyebrows, long curly eyelashes, a tall nose, and sexy lips. He still had the same features, but his temperament had changed dramatically.If she were to describe it, the old Jace was a cold and rough dragon slayer who only knew to hurt others and himself; the new

Sage smiled softly and turned to the next page with great curiosity. This time, the beauty struck her.The artist drew her in a vast field of fiery red roses that bloomed enchantingly in the background. She crouched in the field of roses in a snow-white dress, gently sniffing a rose in her hand. Looking at the drawing, she could imagine breathing in the refreshing rose scent.Sage was captivated by the paintings. She flipped page after page and found herself on every page. The way she was laughing in joy, the way she looked with her favorite hairpin, her look in a suit, and her look in an exquisite dress… The album was full of her in all kinds of looks.There were so many. Sage could barely remember some, but Jace retrieved all of them and displayed them in front of her.The album was filled with all kinds of drawings and paintings in different media, from sketches, colored pencil drawings, gouache, watercolor, and even oil paint. The artist chose the best medium to portray her bea

Sage sat on the sofa with her legs curled up. She hugged her knees and blushed. Her cheeks, ears, and neck were all red.If she were standing in front of the mirror in the bathroom right now, she would be able to see that her fair skin had turned pink."Drink some water." Jace fetched a glass of warm water and handed it to Sage. Sage reached out and took it without looking at him.Jace asked gently, "What's wrong? Are you lacking oxygen from us kissing too much?"Sage was rendered speechless and wondered how Jace could ask a shameless question in such a serious tone. She looked up at him with a glare."No." She answered and refuted, "I wonder whose heart is racing so fast like it's going to explode.""Hm." Jace admitted with no shame, "It's mine."Sage fell silent. She briefly refused to communicate with him nicely and pursed her lips, only to end up feeling his lingering touch on her lips. She blushed again.She raised her head and took a large gulp of water, leaving only a li

Sage thought, 'We've kissed already. What else is there to be afraid of?'"Okay." Her voice was low and clear. "You should get ready and come home with me to meet my big brother soon."Jace froze abruptly as her answer caught him off guard. He was mentally ready to get some beating and rejection from her, but he never thought she would agree. She even allowed him to try getting past the last obstacle—Tim's approval.He took a long time to calm down earlier, but his heartbeat was racing again.Sage waited for a long time but did not get any response from him. She began to feel a little nervous and arched her brow slightly. "Why? Are you scared?""It's not that." Jace gave her a soft kiss before leaning back to look at her. He asked, smiling, "Are you finally willing to take me to see big brother?"Sage gave him a look. "My big brother isn't your brother yet."She looked at the smile on his face and had to warn him, "Stop laughing. Don't take it lightly. It won't be easy to get Ti

The tension in the office suddenly rose.Sage stood in front of the coffee table. She felt as though her brain was mashed, unable to think. She froze.Unable to look up at Tim, she lowered her voice and said to Luther, "Why didn't you tell me in advance?" Luther refuted, "Well, who would've expected you two to be kissing in the office?!" Sage was lost for words.Tim said with a clear and soft voice, "Sorry for interrupting at a bad time."It sounded like an apology, but rather than an apology, it seemed like he was questioning their inappropriate actions.Sage looked up suddenly to see Tim's cold and indifferent look without any warmth. Her heart jumped wildly. Tim did not look at her and fixed his gaze on Jace. His earlier statement was directed at Jace.Jace stood beside Sage and managed a smile. He said politely, "Mister Shelby, don't worry. You're not bothering us."At this moment, Tim was the only one sitting on the sofa. Sage, Jace, and Luther were all standing in fr

"Oh, okay," Sage answered with a muffled voice. She bit the bullet and walked to the sofa stiffly. Then, she crouched down and served the coffee. "Tim, have some coffee." Tim looked at her indifferently. There was no trace of warmth in his eyes. His gaze chilled Sage. Her legs went weak, and she quickly changed from a crouching position to a kneeling position. "Tim, I'm sorry." Sage decided that staying alive was more important. As for her pride, who cares? When Jace saw Sage on her knees, he frowned and wanted to go over. However, Luther reached out to stop him and gently shook his head. It was not the time for Jace to do anything yet.Tim's aura was not for the faint of heart. His wrath was terrifying. Sage was not the only one that feared his wrath. Even Luther would kneel to him.When they were young, Primrose tried to unite the siblings by all means. However, the children were not completely accepting of her method. They were still young and did not quite understand the

The office fell into a dead silence again. No one said anything because of Tim's oppressive silence. Luther wanted to say something and ease the tension, but when he glanced at Tim's cold gaze, he decided to shut up. It was better to wait and see at a time like this. Sage was still kneeling on her knees. There were carpets around the coffee table, so kneeling did not hurt much. She was more anxious about Tim's attitude.She was not afraid of Tim's punishment for her. After all, Tim was her big brother. Even if he got angry with her, he would just give her the cold treatment for a few days. However, it was different for Jace.Sage had been planning for so long and thought of all sorts of situations, but she never expected that Jace and Tim would meet in such an awkward situation. She was trying to figure out how to help Jace escape under Tim's nose. Then, Tim suddenly said, "Get up."Sage was puzzled. She looked up in confusion and thought she had misheard him. Tim sat there

The ninth of September arrived quickly.Sage was worried that Jace would not be able to get up on time, but Sage turned out to be the one who overslept. 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.
