Melody eyes were blinking frantically and she tried to process what just happened. ‘Was I
rejected? That was my first time confessing my feelings to another person, and I was rejected?’ Melody
thought to herself. Sage sent Ross a text. (Your daughter is about to find a boyfriend for herself.] Ross
immediately replied. (Who is this unfortunate victim?]
(He’s no victim, he’s more of a perpetrator.]
(I see. Well best of luck to him. I applaud his bravery.]
Sage was at a loss for words, how could Ross be so nonchalant about it.
(Are you sure you’re her dad? You should take her back, I think she’s going to forget you if you drag
this out any further.]
Not long after, Ross’s reply finally came in. (I’m at Rosa Garden already. Tell Melody to behave herself
and to also bring that guy home. I want to see who this perpetrator is.)
Sage couldn’t help but feel in awe of how Ross can make it sound like he didn’t care at all but in reality,
he cared about that young girl more than anyone else.
Just as Sage texted Ross, Faye also texted her, asking about the translations. Sage looked at the
examples she sent her and decided to send her the answer via voice messages. Sage also
recommended some reading material and a few tips that would come in handy for an international
meeting. Experiences like this are hard to come by and those with experience might not be as ready to
share them as Sage is.
Faye could only feel admiration for Sage when she shared all her hard-earned experiences of hers.
The feeling that Jace missed out on the best wife in the world only kept getting stronger.
Yoel came over and sat by Sage’s side. He suddenly blurted out, “Are you jealous?” “Jealous of?” Sage
asked without looking up from her phone. The nonchalant way she asked made it seem that she
couldn’t care less about what was going on.
Yoel knew that Sage wouldn’t be jealous, but her nonchalant attitude still hurt him a little. “Do you really
have no feelings for me?” asked Yoel. Sage finally looked up from her phone and said, “Is repulsion a
feeling?” Yoel was at a loss for words. Yoel made a last-ditched attempt at regaining his dignity, “The
kid said she likes me.”
“Yes, she did say that,” replied Sage.
Sage continued typing away at her phone while replying to Yoel, “And your future father-in law also
knows she likes you. He wants to meet you, he’s already here at Salem City.”
Yoel did a double-take. “Future father-in-law?” Melody overheard what Sage said and immediately ran
over, “Ross is here?” “Yup,” replied Sage. Melody immediately tensed up, she looked at Yoel and
spoke in a serious, unwavering tone,”
Brother Yoel, let’s run away!” Yoel couldn’t believe what he just heard!
