Chapter One Sage's POV “You have to believe me, Sage. It all was a mistake. It was my fault he cheated on you. I am totally to blame for it all,” my husband's mistress sobbed as she sat before me, wiping her crocodile tears for the tenth time since she sat before me. She does not know how much I wanted to smile with joy and pour myself a glass of alcohol to celebrate the appearance of a tangible reason to divorce my husband. “I do not mind being his mistress,” she suddenly said, kneeling in front of me to reach out to grab my hands. “I promise, I'll make sure to stay out of your way, and if my child is born, I can leave if you want. But you would not want me away from my child, would you? I'll have to stay with him for a while.” I wasn't a fool; I understood what she was trying to do perfectly, and I wasn't complaining. It was going better than I had anticipated. “Please, say something, Sage.” As I was about to open my mouth to voice out something, the door was suddenly fl
Chapter Two Sage's POV “Aaahhh, so life is this perfect,” I exhaled, sinking deeper into the warm, fragrant bath, a smile of satisfaction spreading across my face as I looked down at the glowing city from my penthouse. I have not been this free and satisfied since before I met Theodore. I didn't care what he was doing right now, but I knew he should be welcomed by his cellmates by now, and whoever that Emily bitch was can drop dead. “Boss, you have a lot of paperwork to attend to.” I heard Violet's voice from the other side of the door. “Do you ever talk about anything but work, Violet?” I pouted, shaking the glass wine in my hand gently, not peeling my gaze from the dark city filled with dots of lights beneath me. “No, I don't, Boss.” She replied bluntly, and I just wanted to stuff her with alcohol, but I knew I was going to regret it. She was a very light drinker, and her drunken state wasn't the one I could deal with on a daily basis. “I am going down to the club to t
Chapter ThreeSage's POV Without his approval, I walked over to him, and in no time I was standing in front of him. From that, I could measure out our height difference nicely, as he was much taller than my petite self, reaching just his chest. His cologne was a mixture of ocean scent and rain scent, and I just wanted to drown in it as I sat on the sink, looking up at his flustered face while pulling off my shoes. “I didn't expect you to be the shy type, but now you're totally even more of my type.” I said, grabbing his rock-hard cock with my legs, making him throw his head back, trying to stiffle a moan. He was trying hard to keep in, but as my feet moved up and down, rubbing him together, he let out a groan. “Fuck… I want your mouth,” his deep baritone made my stomach tingle, and a smirk appeared on my face as I got off, kneeling before him while looking up at him. His face immediately flushed as I stared up at him naughtily, grabbing his cock, and a soft gasp escaped his lips.
Chapter FourDiego's POVMy heart thumped in my chest as I saw the woman I was seated before was the same one from the club last night. I couldn't sleep all night because she was on my mind, and right now, looking at her, my body was acting instinctively. Unlike her wild look yesterday, she looked more professional, and it made me feel hot knowing she didn't have just one side to her. So she was the famous Sage Willows with the reputation of having the best work in town but could also be ruthless and sweet, which was a weird word to stand side by side. She didn't act like she knew me at all during the entire meeting, which made my heart drop and at the same time made me quite intrigued to play the game she was trying to. “Will you love to check out the estate with us now?” Her assistant asked, and my gaze finally shifted to her since she was directing her question to me. “No problem.” I gave a nod of approval, and we all left for the estate they had built just for me. I would be s
Chapter FiveSage's pov He gritted his teeth, and he let out a sigh as I positioned myself below him. His submissive side was in play as he watched me dominate him.I grabbed his button and unbuttoned it, but the familiar footsteps of our assistants held me back."I guess today isn't your lucky day, Papi," I said as I slid off his length."What?" He asked in a whisper, and I could tell that he was confused by my words."Our assistants are here," I informed and arranged my shirt while I spoke.I could hear him curse under his breath as he arranged his clothes, and I knew that he was disappointed by such wrong timing.I would have been too if I wasn't satisfied.I turned to him with a bright smile, one that could pierce through anything, and I saw the defeat in his eyes. He wanted me so badly.The door swung open, and the assistants walked in.The deal was concluded, and I was sure that Diego's mind was divided."It was a pleasure, Ms. Sage," Diego turned to me with a handshake and a s
Chapter SixSAGE'S pov After some time in a Zoom meeting call with my partners, the issue was resolved, and I discovered that the wrong documents were given to them.I settled it professionally and got off the call with them on a good note. With a frown, I turned to Violet, who stared blankly at me with a tab in her hands."Who issued the documents?" I inquired with a frown, and she looked down at her tab once before answering, "Victoria from the management team.""Fire her, and let her know the silly mistake she's made so she won't try it anywhere else," I ordered, sitting behind my personal computer. Violet gave me a suspicious gaze, and I knew her long enough to know that it had nothing to do with Victoria or the issue with the clients that had been settled. "Say it." I met Violet's suspicious gaze, and she held the tab beside her waist before clearing her throat. "Mr Ivanova?" "Come on, Violet, there's nothing between me and Diego." I protested, but she maintained a suspicio
CHAPTER SEVENChapter SevenSAGE'S pov "Good day ma'am, the boss asks that you come with me immediately," Justin informed with a slight bow.Justin was my father's butler, but he shouldered more than what a butler would do. He was the only one my parents could send for such a secretive and urgent matter.I turned to Violet, and she gave me a courageous nod in response. No words were needed. She knew that I was going in for questioning, and the nod was to encourage me to face them.Justin stepped aside, still slightly bowed. He gestured towards the car parked right before the entrance, and I walked to it without arguments. Maybe it was time to let the cat out of the bag once and for all. I sighed and fixed my gaze outside the window of the car. "Would you like some music ma'am?" Justin asked with a light smile "I'm good, Justin, thanks." Justin had almost worked forever for my dad, and the family had grown fond of him. He knew when to speak and when to keep mute. When to smile an
Chapter EightSAGE'S pov "Calm down Dad, what other lesson do you intend to teach him? Besides, he's already a sorry soul. " My smirk turned to a smile as I couldn't help but admire my father's aggression.I knew he could make life a living hell for Theodore, but I didn't want him to stress over someone as irrelevant as him. Besides, I wanted to handle him myself. Theodore was my catch, and I was going to roast him to my taste.My parents' faces suddenly held pity for me but I didn't want that, I was so happy Theodore messed up, he allowed me to get the divorce I'd always craved and I was grateful for everything that made it possible for him to cheat and steal from me.Including his mistress, who got pregnant for him and refused to abort it.'Okay! Now is the time to go.' My parent's pitiful faces made me conclude within myself. One more minute in the same space with them could lead to hours of words of encouragement.I didn't have such time, and I had more issues settling outside t
