Chapter 52
This time, Jace was the one who started the conversation.
“I have come.”
His voice carried hints of gentleness. For some reason, he sounded like an apologetic husband approaching his wife after a fight.
Raising her brows, Sage found the situation somewhat strange.
She had clearly told him that they should treat each other as strangers the next time they met. So, why was Jace acting as if he was on familiar terms with her?
“Sorry, but do I know you?”
Sage simply glanced at him nonchalantly, turned around, and walked away.
Jace was left alone. Staring at Sage, who was leaving, his face hardened.
He felt a weight settle on his shoulders, and he heard Yoel’s chuckle. “Damn, wasn’t it embarrassing? I feel for you.”
Trying his best to not laugh, Yoel went on, “This is not how you get a lady, especially not your ex-wife. You were the one who abandoned her and with an ‘I have come’, you’re expecting Sage to come running back into your arms? Do you really think that Sage is the kind of girl who would throw away her dignity and integrity for love?”
Jace furrowed his brows tightly. It was true. He was not good at pursuing women, and he somewhat agreed with Yoel. Putting aside his ego, Jace asked, “What should I do to pursue her then?”
His serious attitude startled Yoel. “Are you asking for real?”
