Was he too late again?
After some time, Yale finally walked toward them. “We shouldn’t stay here for too long. Let’s go back to
Rosa Garden.”
Yale drove them back to Rosa Garden. It was a spectacular sight to see ten identical bulletproof cars
on the road.
Sage and Jace sat in the back in silence during the whole journey.
The scenery outside the window flew past them.
Sage’s eyes were still red, but she was no longer crying. Her emotions seemed to have calmed down.
However, she still had many questions and doubts in her mind. She wanted to ask him, but she was
unable to start.
Even so, he was still alive. This alone was more important than any of her questions. She did not even
feel like asking him anything anymore.
She was afraid that he would disappear again after asking him all those questions.
Yale did not ask any questions either. However, he was not as surprised as Sage to see Jace alive. It
was as if he saw it coming.
Despite that, not everyone could be as calm as they were.
When they arrived at Rosa Garden, they were greeted by many people. The security personnel
arranged outside were three times more than usual.
Luther stood anxiously at the door and waited for Sage and Yale’s arrival. When he saw the car, he
hurried to the entrance.
The door opened, but a tall figure in black walked down first. The man was wearing a black baseball
cap with his face covered.
He was the first to get out of the car. After getting out, he held his hand to the person inside. Sage
pursed her lips as she took his hand and stepped out of the car.
“You’re finally back. I was so worried.” Luther shouted anxiously, “What’s wrong with your arm… Are
you hurt… Ah!”
Luther was looking at Sage’s arm before seeing Jace’s face in the next beat. He was so shocked and
took a big step back in fright.
Luther screamed in panic. “Y…You… You… It’s a ghost!”
Luther shrieked and immediately went around the front of the car. When he quickly retreated to the
back, he almost tripped over himself. He glared at Jace from across the front of the car with a pale face
in fright. Luther was not the only one frightened. Everyone else in Rosa Garden was shocked to see
Jace.
Zamora almost had a heart attack. When Hunter and Leah rushed to Rosa Garden, they screamed in
terror too.
Everyone welcomed Jace’s return with a series of shrieks. They were unable to say anything but a
short syllable of ‘ah’.
Sage gradually calmed down, seeing everyone’s reaction. Everyone was as frightened as her. This
must not be a dream anymore, right? Jace’s appearance distracted everyone from the wound on
Sage’s arm. Everyone’s eyes were fixed on him.
Luther wanted to go over and touch Jace twice, but he dared not. He could only stare at him with wide
eyes. “Are you human or ghost? If you’re a ghost, I advise you to get out of here now. Sage doesn’t
owe you anything. Don’t haunt her!” Hunter’s eyes almost pop out of his head. “Mister Jace? Are you
really back? Don’t scare us in broad daylight…”
Mister Wando’s reaction was even more simple. He sent his men to surround Jace from all sides. He
would not let him hurt Sage. While everyone was watching, Jace slowly took off the hat and showed his
handsome face. He gave the crowd a faint smile, but his eyes were fixed on Sage. “It’s me. I didn’t die.
I’m back.
Sage stared at his extremely short hair. On the left side, her name was shaved into his hair. She was
stunned to see the word Sage there, but what surprised her more was… Why did the handwriting look
so familiar?
It reminded her of her dad’s handwriting. Also, this haircutting skill… looked like her mom’s!
