A Relentless Pursuit for Love
Chapter 603

Chapter 603 Was it purely because they refused to break the law?

Sage observed Jace quietly. She looked at his shaved head and cold, stoic face and thought that helooked way better when he was not being all emotional with her about their past relationship.Jace's assumption was correct, but she had no intention of explaining the details to him.

Sage said, “You're right that Jekyll must be kept alive for now. As for why, I have no intention oftelling you. Please just leave me and my troublesome problems alone.”

Jace frowned slightly upon hearing that. “I've never thought of your problems as troublesome.Sage scoffed, “That's because you have no idea how much bullsh*t I have on my shoulders.”

If he knew, he would have been so terrified, and he would have fled far, far

Sage had witnessed countless couples who had sworn to “love unconditionally’, “forever and always’,but when trouble came knocking, they would always prioritize themselves over their partners.

They would reconsider how much their partners were worth and whether it was worth it for them toinvest and treat them wholeheartedly

A married couple was like a pair of birds from the same flock-when trouble strikes, they fly awayseparately.

Love and relationships were worthless. One would eventually realize that money and their own liveswere more important. “I'd like to replace out,” said Jace, as if he did not notice Sage’s sarcasm anddisdain.

“I'd like to replace out and understand everything about you. I want to know. I wish you'd tell me, but ifyou're unwilling to. I won't pressure you.”

Jace had always been intelligent and capable, but when he was in front of Sage, it was as if none ofhis intelligence and capabilities mattered. She made him realize how small and incompetent he was.Perhaps Jace was ignorant, but he would protect her in his own ways, even if that meant he had tosacrifice everything he had. Sage's heart tightened, and she felt like there was something stuck inher throat.

“Jace Yuriel, we're divorced. I'm no longer your responsibility.” “You are my responsibility,” said Jace.“I'll be responsible for you, even if it's one-sided,” he added.

Sage was discharged from the hospital in the afternoon, and she returned to Rosa Garden after.She felt drowsy and exhausted. She had to rest and recharge for her “labor activities’ later at night.She took a deep nap.

Sage woke up and got out of bed unwillingly, dragging her heavy body from her bedroom to herparents’ bedroom.

She opened the bedroom door and found her brothers waiting inside the room for her.

Kane, Seth, Nigel, and Luther were all sitting on the couch as still as a monk.

They were all looking at their phones but with varying purposes and expressions.

Kane's expression was the most complicated out of all. He looked both frustrated and anxious. Eventhough he was physically there with them, his heart and soul had flown away with Laura.

Nigel sat cross-legged on the couch, texting Sean. The lawyer had been turned into a choreman byhim. Sean had been requested to bring Nigel all sorts of stake-outs.

On the other hand, Luther was still sulking over being scolded by Tim. His sports car had beentemporarily confiscated. After being scolded by Tim, he was also lectured by his other brothers fromthe Bennett family. Lastly, Seth was always the most thoughtful one. Upon seeing Sage, heimmediately smiled warmly and passed her a bag, “Suki wanted you to have this.” “What's this?”Sage took the bag and saw two soft pillowy toys. “These are the knee pads she got from herprevious acting gig. They call it “easy kneeling pads

Sage was speechless. Such a thing existed?
