Chapter 403
Sage glanced at him. “Are you not planning to accumulate your wealth and marry Leah soon? Don’t say I haven’t given you a chance. If you want to be my brother-in-law, you have to be more than just an assistant.” “I understand. Haven’t you seen that I’ve been working very hard recently?”
Hunter followed Sage and continued, “I’ve just gotten into a relationship with Leah. Are you willing to see us separate right after we start dating?” Sage glanced at him, “I’m not trying to separate you. Besides, Norah Jewel will be opening a branch in North City. Ada will be going over and taking the lead. I plan to transfer Leah there too.”
Hunter tried to curry favor with Sage and praised her with flattery. “Oh, so you’ve got everything planned. You’re so thoughtful, Sage. Thank you!”
Sage glared at him. “Tsk. Stop it.”
Hunter must have learned that from Yoel. Sage simply blamed Yoel for it.
They walked out of the airport and unexpectedly met a group of unwelcome people.
Lucas, Luna, and Sienna were behind them. What bad luck.
Sage wanted to ignore them, but Lucas approached her with a smile. “Sage, I saw you at the wine tasting event, but I didn’t manage to speak with you. Did you just arrive too?”
It would be impolite to ignore them at that point. Since Lucas had initiated the conversation, Sage greeted him back. She nodded at him with a faint hum as a greeting and wanted to leave right away. However, Luna was unwilling to let her go.
Luna found Sage too arrogant and rude! “Miss Luz,” Luna blurted and hurriedly covered her mouth. “Oh, I’m sorry. You’re now Miss Norah. I almost forgot that you married Jace with a country bumpkin’s name and identity. I still can’t get used to the change. My apologies,” he
Luna was so pretentious. Sage had to refute her to counter her shamelessness.
Sienna was so angry and wanted to rush forward. However, Luna pulled her and stopped her. “We’re public figures. We’ll be at a disadvantage if we get into a conflict with ordinary people.” Ha. Did Luna call herself a public figure? Did she think she was somebody? “Right. Commoners like us wouldn’t be bothered by big shots like you,” Sage said sarcastically and put on her sunglasses. Then, she nodded and turned to leave.
Sienna glared at her back. “What did she say?”
Hunter smirked, “Don’t you understand? Well, I can translate for you. Miss Sage said you’re just pretending to be a big shot, which you aren’t.”
Then, Hunter put on his sunglasses and left in a dashing manner.
Sienna was stunned and lost for words. “How could she say that?”
