Since there were already people sitting in the driver and front passenger seats, four of
them needed to sit in two separate cars. Jace had shown Ross and Luther to the second car and
invited Sage to sit together with him in the first car.
Luther was afraid that Sage would feel embarrassed and Jace might be up to something bad, so he
wanted to change with Sage. However, Sage told him it was unnecessary. “Coincidentally, I have some
business matters to discuss with Mister Jace.”
It was better to act normally rather than being awkward. They were divorced, not criminals.
When they got into the car, Sage spoke first, “I’m sorry that Melody had disturbed and caused trouble
for you. She is a very naughty girl.” Jace tilted his head and looked at her, “Sage, you don’t have to act
like a stranger with me.” After that, Sage began to talk about the racecourse project. Jace did not go to
the discussion. Everything was decided by her and Yoel. They planned to launch it on Valentine’s day
for good luck
Jace nodded lightly. “Valentine’s day, not bad. I am okay with it.” “Then that’s settled.”
After that, both of them ran out of topics to talk about. Thinking of Valentine’s day, Jace was a little
stunned. He was not someone who celebrated such holidays. He only remembered festivals like Easter
day and Christmas because the elders in his family regarded those two festivals highly and requested
everyone to unite back at home for those two festivals.
In his impression, for the three years he had married Sage, they never celebrated Valentine’s day.
However, he slightly remembered the house would always have a bouquet of yellow roses on
Valentine’s day. It was not red roses but yellow roses. They were placed in a vase, and each petal and
branch were at its best. The dewdrops on the roses were crystal clear. Even a person like him who
never appreciated flowers thought that it was very beautiful. He thought Sage was the one who
trimmed it herself.
However, there was one time he asked the butler if Sage was the one who bought it. The butler
answered, “I think it was imported from overseas. These roses are premium roses. We don’t have it
here. Since it was imported, it only has a lifespan of three days.”
Since then, he had been wondering why his wife, who grew up in the countryside, would receive yellow
roses from overseas. “Valentine’s day…” Jace suddenly spoke with a deep voice and disturbed the
silence in the car, “Do you have any plans this year?” Sage was startled. After a while, she realized
Jace was asking her. She looked up and saw a pair of eyes looking at her. She was thinking about how
she had spent Valentine’s day in the previous years. Her mother, Primrose, was a person who valued
the importance of ritual. For every Valentine’s day, her father would order a bouquet of yellow roses for
her mother from overseas. Since it was not available in the country, his father had to get her godfather
and Tim
to buy it from Yathein and ship it back by air. At that time, she felt that her mother was just being
troublesome and wanted to make her dad work hard to please her.
However, after Sage married Jace, she finally discovered that her mother had married the right person
who would rather seek help from his rival in love in order to make his wife happy. Fortunately, Tim had
continued with this ritual and would send a bouquet of yellow roses on Valentine’s day. He did it to
cherish the memory of his wife.
With an indifferent expression on her face, she said, “Not planning to celebrate it.”
Jace looked at her deeply and felt something was stuck in his throat. He mustered up a lot of courage
and spoke slowly, “Hey Sage, let’s celebrate Valentine’s day together this year.”
