A Relentless Pursuit for Love -
Chapter 816
Chapter 816 “Mom, have a drink.” Jace poured a glass of warm water for Freya.
Freya gazed at Jace intently. This still felt like a dream.
“Jace, what's going on? I saw your body with my own eyes. How did you survive?” Freya asked Jaceas she pulled him and made him sit beside her.
Jace saw his mother’s graying hair and wrinkles at the corner of her eyes. He felt that she had ageda lot in the past six months.
Only those who had gone through the pain of losing a loved one could understand the pain.
He asked, “Did you touch the corpse in the morgue?”
Freya shook her head. The memory of that day still pained her. “I lost it when they pulled down thewhite cloth and revealed your face. I couldn't accept it at all. How could I have the courage to touchyou? Yoel and Cole were the ones who helped with the funeral.”
After that, Freya looked up at him. “Do you mean that corpse isn't you?”
"Of course not. How else could I be sitting in front of you?”
Jace smiled and told her the story. He had not hidden the part about Sage’s parents’ story too.Primrose specially told him to share it with Freya.
"When you go back, everyone will ask who saved you. Don't tell others about us, but you don't haveto hide it from your mother. We'll meet sooner or later anyway. Tell her earlier and let her bementally prepared. We don't want to scare her when we meet later.”
Primrose added, “I've wanted to befriend your mother for a long time. I heard she gets along verywell with my daughter. They're more like mother and daughter than 1 do.”
Freya's initial surprise at learning that Sage“s parents were still alive turned to delight.
"Did she really say that? Hahaha... Primrose is my idol!"
Freya's eyes glowed when she spoke of Primrose. Her eyes were full of admiration for her.
She said with a long sigh, “As expected of Primrose. She's always doing some unexpected andamazing things. I was really sad when she died. I lamented her early death. Now, I learn that Sage'sparents are still alive. You're alive too, and they saved you. Maybe this is really fate.” Jace chuckled.“Yeah, I think fate is wonderful too.” “Jace, your safe return is God's greatest gift to me.” Freyapatted Jace’s hand. “We both have a difficult fate. We've been dependent on each other for so manyyears. Fortunately, we're blessed with luck. I've thought a lot over the past six months. I've learned alot from Roy too. Life is not easy, so just go with your heart and do what you want to do while youstill can. Love whoever you want to as long as you don't let others and yourself down. This is goodenough.”
“You're right. I feel the same way too.” Jace knew what Freya was implying. “I've hurt Sage so muchin this life. This time, I'll give my life to love her and protect her. Whether she wants to be with me ornot, I still want to protect her by her side. Will you support me?”
Tears welled in her eyes and she nodded. “Of course I do. I'll support you unconditionally!” Jace saidwith a smile, “I unconditionally support your relationship with Uncle Duncan too.” Freya was slightlystunned when Jace suddenly changed the topic to Roy. Her face flushed red. “I'm talking about Sageand you. Why did you mention him?” Jace said, “I want to replace myself a reliable stepfather.” Freyawas rendered speechless. Who did Jace learn this from?
Meanwhile, Luther was still barking on the call with Sage, who was in the courtyard.
“Holy crap! D*mn! Did you know Mom and Dad are alive?”
Luther came to his senses and thought Sage should not have been so calm. Maybe she knew it longago!
Sage said faintly, “What? Who do you think saved Jace?" Luther fell into silence on the other end ofthe call.
