A Relentless Pursuit for Love -
Chapter 799
Chapter 799 Jace said, “I think Shawn has already swapped me by that time.” He only knew how hewas brought back to life when Jack and Sage’s parents told him after he woke up.
Shawn found a double to die in his place. He did not know how Shawn was so successful at hidingthis from the world.
Afterward, Primsone guessed that Shawn found a body very similar to Jace. Shawn made thedouble’s face look like Jace, and the double was buried in his place.
This was not the first time Shawn had done this. He also set up the scene of Primrose and Sawyer'scar accident with dead bodies and made the police believe it.
Primrose and Sawyer went along with it and escaped from Shawn's hand. However, they wereseriously injured in that incident too. After escaping, they spent a lot of time on the island inrecovery. They happened to run into Jack, who was living in hiding. Half a year ago, they snatchedJace from Shawn's hand. “Shawn didn't think I'd live. He probably took my body to blackmail you orexperiment with my genes.” Sage's turned cold. If Shawn had captured Jace, he would be a livingcorpse by now.
Shawn was a complete demon who viewed himself as a being better than humans. He was devotedto all kinds of experiments and controlling others’ fate in his hand.
He loved to play with people's destinies. If he had her parents or Jace in his control, he would usethem to blackmail her. She would have gone mad from that.
Jace saw Sage shaking in fear and anger. Her eyes turned red with murderous intent. She washovering on the edge of rage and desperation.
“Sage,” he called out to her urgently and walked over to her. He woke her up and comforted her,"Don't be afraid! I'm back and alive! His plot didn't succeed. Your parents are fine. We're all alive andwell...”
Jace squatted in front of Sage. He kept talking to her with a gentle and strong voice. Sage lookedup at him with her red eyes. “Don't leave me behind again,” she forced her words out with atrembling voice. She struggled to choke out, “Jace, don't leave me behind again.”
Seeing her like this, Jace felt so much pain throbbing in his heart. He almost suffocated to see her inso much distress. His eyes turned red as he got up and hugged her tight.
“Il won't.” He pressed her head close to her chest and let her feel the sound of his pounding heart.His equally determined voice sounded above her as he choked out, “I'll never leave you again.”They talked for a long time and stayed this way for a long time.
They spent such a long time together until Zamora came up and interrupted them. She Inocked onthe door and asked Sage if she wanted to have dinner downstairs or in her room.
Sage was not very hungry. Then, she remembered how Jace ravished the food as if he had starvedfor years.
"Who's the one cooking on the island?”
Jace said, “At first, Uncle Sawyer cooked. After that, I learned how to cook. I cooked for everyone,but the resources on the island were limited. We didn't have many types of ingredients, so wemostly ate fish for every meal.” No wonder he ate so happily earlier. He was already lucky not tostarve with her parents. Back then, she went to learn cooking because her parents’ cooking was tooterrible. “If you do it yourself, you'll have enough to eat,’ was what Primrose had taught her sinceshe was a child. 1
Sage curled her lips. “Let's go down and eat with me. I'll make you anything you want.” Jace was soflattered that his eyes lit up. “You'll cook?”
