Chapter 840 Sage never felt so much jealousy in her life, thinking about her mother sleeping in,brushing her teeth with her husband wrapping her arms around her, eating, and exercising all whileshe hustled away in the office.

Being born into a family where the parents were truly in love was not necessarily all good, thechildren suffered some degree of trauma watching their parents being overly lovey-dovey with eachother, too.

Sage just finished a meeting and walked back to her office when she received a video from hermother. Primrose baked cookies at home and made a mess in the kitchen.

Sage saw the video and felt her head thud as she sent an audio message to Primrose saying,”Missus Norah, I'd recommend you to stop wasting food since you're inept. If you are cravingcookies, I'll make some for you when I'm home.”

Primrose replied with another video of Sawyer being fed the cookies aggressively and forced tocompliment how good they were. Sawyer had it pretty tough too, it seemed.

Sage felt pity for her father.

“Missus Norah, I completely understand the need to show off how in love you are with others toprove something. But you should refrain from overdoing it and spare the poor man from foodpoisoning.” Primrose replied with an eyes rolling emoticon and followed by an audio messagesaying, “ You're just jealous!!” The pair started spamming each other with Gifs and emoticons.Hunter followed closely behind with his head down going through the meeting notes and did notnotice someone in front of them. When he finally realized and wanted to warn Sage but it was toolate.

Sage walked her head right into Jace’s chest. “..." Sage looked up and thought she just walked into apole. How can a human chest be so tough?! “Why are you just standing there?” Sage frowned asshe rubbed her forehead. “I stood here thinking you“d notice me instead of walking right into me. Ican't believe you knocked right onto me.”

Sage smiled sarcastically and said, “Sorry, I don't have a third eye.” Jace laughed and asked, “Areyou hurt? Let me have a look.” “No.”

Sage slapped his hand away and asked, “Why are you here?”

Sage realized before Jace could answer. “Oh, the final draft of the interview is out?”

"Yes, I came to show it to you,” Jace said gently. “Come on in,” said Sage. Jace followed Sage intoher office while Hunter was stunned in place. Back then, it was hard for Jace to even walk past thedoor, he could not believe how easy it was for Jace to get into Sage’s office now. Love is a mystery.Hunter was smart enough to stay outside of the office, he closed the door and commanded theassistants to not disturb the pair. Sage walked into her office and changed into her slippers by habitand sat down on the couch as she reached her hands out to Jace, “Let's have a look then.” Jacepassed Sage the phone. Sage took the phone and turned the screen around, “Please unlock it.”“Right.” Jace placed his thumb on the screen to unlock it but failed. “What's going on?” Sage heldhis finger and pressed it onto the screen, “Why isn't it unlocking?” “I forgot which finger I use, whydon't you try all of them?”

Sage held onto Jace’s hand as she froze in place and looked at him. His dark iris was like the nightsky, sparkled with stars.
