Chapter 20
In the mirror of his suite, Yoel checked his bruised lips. He gasped in pain
“We haven’t seen each other in such a long time, and he punches me in the face?”
Yoel glared resentfully at the man sitting on the sofa. The expression of Jace’s face was as cold as ice.
He said nothing as he thought about Sage, and how she had looked. The scene flashed through his head, second by second, as her words rang through his ears.
Was that confident and charismatic woman with her sarcasm and indifference really Sage Luz?
Jace had his doubts.
Sitting across Jace, Yoel lit a cigarette and said, “How can unlucky can I get? Last night, I got slapped by your girl, and today you punch me in the face. I swear that the both of you are a match made in heaven. You’re both violent and aggressive. So, tell me, why the sudden divorce?”
Jace looked up; he was utterly cold when he said, “Ex-wife.”
He had corrected Yoel’s misaddress.
Yoel nearly choked on cigarette smoke. He raised his brows and asked, “Why do you care so much if she is merely an ex? Hell, you even came running all the way here from Nadeem City. Jace, your actions and words clearly don’t match up.”
Furrowing his brows tightly, Jace ignored Yoel’s teasing and said, “Cut the nonsense. So, who exactly is Sage Luz?” .
