Chapter 499

Meanwhile, back in the cafe, Sage and Laura were chatting happily. Both were quiet people with fewwords. It was the first time they had met after a long time, but somehow, they managed to keeptalking. Laura was serving in the military as a Major General and a female machine gunner. She usedto be comrades with Jace and Yoel in Team Draco and had a life-long friendship. Soldiers wererespectable. Sage always had a liking for them because of her experience of being kidnapped as achild. Besides, Laura was a heroic and handsome special force police. “And I was wondering why Inever saw you again. So you're now a soldier.” Laura left a strong impression on the young Sage.After all, not many could defeat Kane or make him cry. To see Laura beat Kane to tears was truly anunforgettable scene.

It was not just her. Her other brothers would bring up this incident from time to time to tease Kane.When they were young, all of them studied martial arts in a martial arts school. Laura's family senther to learn martial arts. They wanted her to become healthier, but they never thought that shewould become a little bully there.

Laura was beautiful enough to do anything she wanted. Strangely though, she insisted on replaceingher place in the world of men by using her fists.

Laura's beauty was different from Sage's sweet and aloof appearance. Laura looked charminglyseductive with her sharp chin and defined eyes. Her features were strong. She spent years fightingin her career, which added a hint of masculinity and handsomeness to her appearance. A writernamed Woolf once wrote, “Great souls are androgynous.”

What he meant was women like Laura.

Laura laughed. “I'm a girl with a manly heart. A typical girl's life isn't for me. I didn't want to go toschool, fall in love, get married, and have children. Military life is more suitable for me.” Sage said,"Girls don't necessarily have to get married and have children. People may think that having ahusband and children is normal life for girls, but we only have one chance to live. It's our choice inthe way we live. I think it's fine as long as you choose the right path and continue to walksteadfastly.” “You're right. I think so too.” Laura and Sage had fun chatting. They raised their glassesand toasted. Laura mixed the cocktail herself and named it Blue Moon. The cocktail was ice-blue incolor. It was nice but very strong.

No one else except her would mix a cocktail in a cafe.

The alcohol was hot and spicy but gave a comfortable and refreshing feeling.

It had been a long time since Sage had such a nice chat and good drink.

Jace stood aside and watched them. He could not help but say, “This drink is too strong. Drink less.”“Just let me be.” Sage shot a cold glare at Jace. “Are you not going to comfort your dream lover?What are you doing here?”

Jace pursed his lips and remained silent.

Laura glared at Jace too. “She's right. What are you doing here? Go do what you need to do.”

Jace was good-natured to Sage but fierce to others. He turned to glance at Laura and said, “Whydidn't you go home during your break? What are you doing in Nadeem City?” “I'm here to hidefrom trouble and heal my wounds.” As soon as she said that, Jace and Sage asked in unison withdifferent concerns. Jace asked, “Hide from trouble?” Sage asked, “Are you hurt?”

Laura saw their nervous and concerned look and smiled softly. She put her hand on her waist andsaid casually, “It's not a big deal. I have an old injury on my waist... Ah, now that I mention it, it hurtsagain.”

She did not explain her trouble and reason for hiding. After all, she did not even know who wasstalking her.
