Chapter 151

Jace laughed, although he got a slap from Sage, “I never said I was a nice man from the beginning.”‘What’s so funny about being not nice?’ Sage thought angrily to herself.Again, she glared at Jace furiously. Her eyes were filled with emotions and she looked like she did not have dignity.Jace stared at her blushed face, she had a child-like but prideful expression. Jace thought she was so adorable and wanted to kiss her again.As Jace leaned over, hands about to touch her face, Sage tilted away and left the bedside.Jace felt saddened as he looked at his empty hands. Sage kept his distance, and she slowly calmed down. She said, “You forced a kiss upon me, and I gave you a tight slap. We are even now.”Jace smiled as he looked at her serious face. He leaned on the headboard.“That sounds like a good deal. Will you let me kiss you again if I say I can take another slap? My face is already bruised all over anyway.”Sage couldn’t find words to say. She felt a mix of anger and gui

Though Jace already knew Sage couldn't promise him a remarriage, it stil hurt. Jace felt his pride get hurt. His lips pursed into a slit.He let out a bitter smile and said, “I’m not an idiot. How could I force you to remarry me with this? I can’t bulldoze you to such arrangements. I know.” At least Jace was smart enough.Sage asked patiently, “So, what do you want me to promise you about?”“I want you to trust me one more time,” said Jace as he looked her in the eyes firmly. “I did not meet with a lady in my room. Suki West flirted with me at the bar and I thought she was you. I was pretty drunk at that point. I apologized and told the bartender to bill it to Room 77, I guess she must’ve gotten my room number from there.“After that, I didn't expect her to come to my room with wine. I told her to leave after telling her I’m not interested in her. You can also ask Yoel if you don’t trust me, or check the surveillance cameras.” Sage felt a little lost while listening to him. After

Sage’s face darkened as Jace opened his mouth. She asked with an annoyed tone, “Jace, don’t be greedy now. You said I only had to promise one thing.”Jace replied, “You also said other than remarrying me, you would promise anything else.”Sage wanted to punch him in the face again.‘He has always been good at loopholes. Pfft, what a cunning businessman!’ thought Sage.Sage squinted and looked at him in silence. Jace stared right back at her. They remained to stare at each other for quite a while before Sage looked the other way.She was cursing Kane for always causing trouble in her heart. Sage rubbed her fingertips and said slowly, “Mr. Yuriel, please think carefully before you make any more requests. If you forced my hand, who knows what I’ll do next,” Sage tried to bargain.Noting the threat in Sage's voice, Jace chukled and said, “Don’t be nervous now, it won’t be something crazy. I guarantee it will be something you can manage.”Sage scoffed. She didn't really believe that.

“I’ve missed this face.” Jace replied as he asked out of curiosity, “I’ve always wanted to ask, did you have anything injected into your face?”“What injection?” Sage suddenly understood what he meant, “You mean Hyaluronic Acid?”Jace nodded, it sounded something like that.Sage scoffed and said, “I don’t need that. I’m not a celebrity. I don’t care about that at all.”Jace complimented her as he smiled, “You’re prettier than the celebrities.” Sage didn’t even look back and replied, “Au-naturel.”Sage was everything but humble.Jace happily watched as she applied moisturizer in front of him. She didn’t take him as an outsider. And he couldn’t help but keep smiling.As Sage applied layers and layers of skincare and patted it into her face with slapping motions, Jace’s smile disappeared, and he asked, “Doesn’t it hurt?”Sage looked at him and asked, “You want some?”“No thanks,” said Jace.Turning off the lights, Sage went up to bed and covered herself fully in sheets, revealin

Jace was astounded by Sage’s directness.He stuttered, “How did you…” Sage scoffed at him and said, “How did I know? I know better than you yourself, Jace. Don’t try to play tricks on me. Such a shame if I had to embarrass you.”Jace was speechless. He compressed his lips, feeling embarrassed already at this time.‘She actually knew!’ thought Jace.“You’re foolish,” Sage’s voice sounded extra cold. “For thinking I would be softened up after taking up a beating?”Jace toned down his voice and said, “All I wanted was a chance to chase after you.”“And if I deny?” Sage asked.“Then I’ll seize the opportunity whenever I can!” answered Jace with a voice full of determination.“You used to say, you being in love with me has nothing to do with me. Now, that I chase after you has nothing to do with you either. I’ll not ask for you to be with me,” Jace said.And he added, “Because, from today onwards, I am chasing after you, Sage Norah!”Sage kept quiet.She looked at him quietly

Jace thought​​, 'I can’t make her angry again now that she’s opened up a little to me.'He had to practice self-restraint and lie back on the bed.Her biological clock woke her up and as she opened her eyes and turned over. She realized the bed next to her was empty. Jace was not there.She furrowed her brows and got up. A sizzling sound came from the kitchen corner. Sage walked towards the kitchen and saw Jace dressed in his hospital gown frying an egg in the kitchen. He felt her at the door and he turned around immediately. "Awake already?” he asked.Jace gently smiled at her as a drop of oil splattered on him and he jumped. He quickly checked on his fried egg. Jace was not like his usual CEO persona at all. He looked clumsy.Sage sighed and signaled him to step away. It was a wonder he didn’t start a fire. She rolled up her sleeves and took the spatula over from Jace, “I’ll do it.”Jace was ordered to stay aside. He quietly observed as Sage flipped the egg. A perfect sunny-s

Jace answered Yoel with pride, “Sage made chicken noodle soup.” Jace smacked his lips at Yoel. “You had Sage’s cooking?!” Yoel was shocked by what he said and dashed to their table.“Anymore left for me? I’m so hungry… What! not a single bite left for me?” Yoel yelled as he looked at their empty bowls and the room was still filled with the delicious smell of the food, “Make me another bowl, please.”Zayne stood at the door and sighed. 'Why can’t these men grow up?' Sage wiped her mouth and said, “Next time. I’m running out of time already.” She glanced at Jace and said, “I don’t think you can make it to the turf club today. Let’s meet again another day.”“No, no. I can go,” Jace said as he tried to take the bandage off his head. Sage held his wrist and glared at him as she said, “You are not fully healed yet. Just stay here if you don’t want it to be worse.” Jace obediently put down his hand and nodded, “Yes. Whatever you say.”'What is happening?' Yoel stared at them with his

Chapter 158

Braxton’s trip to Yusemite wasn’t fruitful. He only bought a few pieces of worthless pebbles. He almost spent all his savings, too, and he fought with Zane all the way home about stuff that happened in the past. Yeva fell into her father’s embrace and cried hysterically as she saw him. She scolded about how Sage bullied and traumatized her while he wasn’t around.Braxton was not interested in their squabble. He comforted his daughter half-heartedly and said, “Your sister did that for your good. I’ll have less to worry about if you are half as smart as her.”Yeva was not pleased with how her father reacted. She felt a great deal of disappointment. She was longing for her father to teach Sage a lesson. In the end, that was all she got from him. ‘Might as well be unhappy together,’ Yeva thought. Then, she told her father about his land being turned into a turf club.Immediately, Braxton was pissed at what happened to his precious land. He almost had a heart attack, and he questione

Everyone stood up and bowed lightly at Sage as they saw her. They greeted, “Good morning, Miss Norah.”Braxton got even angrier. These idiots didn’t even look at him as they saw him, the director of the company!Sage nodded lightly and signaled everyone to take their seats.She walked towards the right hand seat of the conference table, and Hunter fetched her a chair. As Sage sat down, all the board members and voting members instantly pulled their chairs nearer to Sage and turned towards her.They clearly had a preference when it came to who was the real decision-maker of this corporation.“Hello my niece, you finally came." Braxton lowered his body onto the table as he glared at Sage who was seated opposite and said in an unkind voice, “You seem to owe me an explanation on the turf club issue.”“What else do I need to say? You clearly knew it all,” Sage looked up lazily and threw a file across the table.She added, “This document stated more than twenty reasons as to why this

When Sage first returned, she was courteous towards them and compromised to benefit both sides. That time round, she was prepared to turn against Braxton and Zane. Moreover, she was fearless because situation was extremely unfavorable for them.Zane had a guilty conscience. He was a man with no substance; he only knew how to spend money and never learned how to make it. He was never interested in running a business, and all his life he was obsessed with antiquing and nothing else. During the trip to Yusemite, he unintentionally got involved in gambling all his money away. He hadn’t recovered from it financially.Zane was still hoping to sell some Norah group shares to cover his loss. He needed the share price to inflate just a bit more. If Sage were to kick him out now, he would have lost everything.It was not worth it for him.He thought of that, shrunk back to his seat, and kept quiet. Braxton on the other hand felt extremely uneasy.Braxton opened his mouth after two long br
