Chapter 339
Jim did not answer Jace’s questions, but he added, “So, you’re the ex-husband, Jace.”
Jace was dumbfounded. “Who you calling Jace?” Sage walked over in time and patted Jim’s back, “I’m not close to him,” and turned to Jace and said, “sorry, my kid is over-friendly with everyone.”
Kid? Did she just refer to this young man as a kid?
Jace looked at Sage’s usual unfazed eyes in contrast to this young man’s friendly attitude, he felt an ache in his heart and he looked down, “It’s not a big deal.”
Silence filled the room. Zayne walked over and broke the awkward silence, “Mr. Jace, we have to leave now before it’s getting too late.”
Hunter reminded Sage as well, “Miss Sage, we have to go too.” Jace huffed on his cigarette and let out a slight cough. Zayne immediately understood and looked at Sage with a smile, “Miss Sage, your car has been sent to the maintenance workshop, it’ll take some time to get fixed. We’ll be glad to send you back to the airport.”
Sage kept quiet. Hunter observed her face and forced out a formal smile and replied, “Thank you Mr. Yuriel and Zayne for the invitation, but our car has arrived.”
Zayne looked in the direction Hunter pointed and he saw a bulletproof, heavy-duty off-road vehicle parked outside of the police station. Zayne thought to himself, ‘Isn’t this a bit much?’
