Chapter 456 When Sage saw Jace, her mind wandered with the cold wind. She suddenly thought of the time when Jace recovered from his high paraplegia and started to return to work at Yuriel Group. He had to fly off to many different places all the time. No matter how late his plane arrived, she would always pick him up at the airport. At that time, Sage was worried that his body and mind could not cope with the intense workload. However, Jace could not understand why Sage needed to worry about him and was unwilling to let Sage go pick him up from the airport. In the end, she could only wait for him at home.
There was one time the television was airing a new and popular drama that took place in the middle ages. She was sitting in the living room and saw a scene where one of the actresses was
crying and said, “Do you know how it feels to sit and wait alone all night?” Sage did not know if the actor’s performance affected her emotionally or if it was the script that had touched her heart deeply. She cried like a little baby as she watched it. It was the first time Sage cried since her parents passed away. Maybe she felt sad that her marriage was more pathetic than the drama at that time. The concubine who was no longer the King’s favorite would still be lucky enough to be visited occasionally, whereas, in the modern era, Sage, the wealthy man’s wife, was not even living a better life than the concubine from the middle ages. At that time, she never thought that Jace would divorce her one day. She did not expect that after the divorce, Jace would be the one waiting to pick her up at the airport. The difference in this was she had returned to the eldest daughter of the Norah family, who only cared about her career and money. She was no longer the old Sage who only cared about being Missus Yuriel. How absurd it was.
During the short period when Sage was daydreaming, Jace had walked toward her and stood in front of her. He greeted her as usual, “You came.” Originally, Ross and Luther were standing behind her. Since they saw Jace waiting for Sage, they immediately took each side and stood beside her. They glared at Jace as if they were Sage’s guardian angels. Compared to Ross and Luther’s arrogant attitudes, Sage was more relaxed and polite. She stretched her hand out to shake hands with Jace. “Mister Jace, it has been quite a while since we last met.”
Jace was startled, and his expression showed how disappointed he was. It was only a couple of days since they last saw each other, but Sage was treating him like a stranger. ‘Why?’ Jace thought.
