A Relentless Pursuit for Love
Chapter 456

Chapter 456 When Sage saw Jace, her mind wandered with the cold wind. She suddenly thought ofthe time when Jace recovered from his high paraplegia and started to return to work at YurielGroup. He had to fly off to many different places all the time. No matter how late his plane arrived,she would always pick him up at the airport. At that time, Sage was worried that his body and mindcould not cope with the intense workload. However, Jace could not understand why Sage needed toworry about him and was unwilling to let Sage go pick him up from the airport. In the end, shecould only wait for him at home.

There was one time the television was airing a new and popular drama that took place in the middleages. She was sitting in the living room and saw a scene where one of the actresses was

crying and said, “Do you know how it feels to sit and wait alone all night?” Sage did not know if theactor's performance affected her emotionally or if it was the script that had touched her heartdeeply. She cried like a little baby as she watched it. It was the first time Sage cried since her parentspassed away. Maybe she felt sad that her marriage was more pathetic than the drama at that time.The concubine who was no longer the King's favorite would still be lucky enough to be visitedoccasionally, whereas, in the modern era, Sage, the wealthy man’s wife, was not even living a betterlife than the concubine from the middle ages. At that time, she never thought that Jace woulddivorce her one day. She did not expect that after the divorce, Jace would be the one waiting to pickher up at the airport. The difference in this was she had returned to the eldest daughter of theNorah family, who only cared about her career and money. She was no longer the old Sage whoonly cared about being Missus Yuriel. How absurd it was.

During the short period when Sage was daydreaming, Jace had walked toward her and stood infront of her. He greeted her as usual, “You came.” Originally, Ross and Luther were standing behindher. Since they saw Jace waiting for Sage, they immediately took each side and stood beside her.They glared at Jace as if they were Sage’s guardian angels. Compared to Ross and Luther's arrogantattitudes, Sage was more relaxed and polite. She stretched her hand out to shake hands with Jace.“Mister Jace, it has been quite a while since we last met.”

Jace was startled, and his expression showed how disappointed he was. It was only a couple of dayssince they last saw each other, but Sage was treating him like a stranger. “Why?’ Jace thought.

Jace shook hands with Sage so her hand would not continue hanging in the air. “Miss Sage,” hegreeted. After the short interim shaking, Sage withdrew her hand and introduced him to Ross andLuther, “You already know Luther. This is Dr. Ross Samuel from Mostal. We are here in Nadeem Cityto settle some private affairs.”

Jace nodded at Luther and initiated a handshake with Ross. “Dr. Samuel, I have heard many goodthings about you.” Ross had no intention of shaking hands with Jace as he kept his hand in hispocket. He said indifferently, “The last time I saw you, you were in crutches, and Sage was followingbehind you, worried and ready to hold you in case you fell down. From the looks of it, you are fullyrecovered.”

Maybe the wind at the airport was too cold for Jace; he felt a sudden chill air blowing into his heart.It was so cold that his hands and feet were numbed, and his face was pale. He silently retracted backhis hand and forced a smile. After that, he looked at Sage, “Yes. I have Sage to thank for taking careof me, so I was able to recover fully.” Sage tried to avoid mentioning her past at all costs. She turnedher face away and helped Wayne down from the ladder. The group slowly left the airport and gotinto a limousine. Jace had arranged a five-star hotel under the operation of Yuriel Group for Wayne.However, Wayne expressed that he did not want to stay in the hotel. In the end, Jace sent him toMendoza's place directly. Wayne could not wait to meet his old friend and take a look at the brokenjade pieces.

After sending Wayne off, Sage greeted Mendoza and left the bodyguards with Wayne. She returnedto the car and followed Jace to Yuriel Mansion to pick up Emily. On their way to Yuriel Mansion,they changed from the limousine to two luxury sedan cars.
