That drove Zane up the wall. “You bitch! How date you say that about your uncle?”.
Sage held a teacup made of glass in her hands and fiddled with it as she said lightly, “You should be
feeling lucky that you’re my uncle. Your brain would be blown into bits right now if you weren’t!”
As she said it, she flew the teacup in Zane’s direction. The glass brushed against his cheeks and then
landed on the glass cabinet behind him, shattering into pieces. Fractured glass scattered everywhere
on the floor, and Zane’s heart skipped a beat:
It scared the living daylight out of Leah as well. She unconsciously sat up straight, and she felt her
heart almost give out. If the glass did fly straight to Zane’s head, he really might have died there and
then.
Sage was never one to go back on her words. She always did what she said.
Zane held his head and hid under the table. He looked at the shattered glass on the floor and shivered
as if he was experiencing hypothermia; though it was a bright warm day.
He touched his cheeks. One side of his cheekbones was swollen and painful to the touch. Zane stood
up and looked at Sage in horror. He finally realized that Sage was being true to her words. She was not
the little girl being chased around by her uncle anymore. She’s a venomous snake!
He had a feeling that this niece of his will not let him live comfortably from now on. She might even be
crueler than her father.
With that she left with a warning.
As Zane expressed his worries to Braxton his old face wrinkled up and said “I already knew that! This
vicious woman must have found out something about what we did. She’s out for us!”
“W-what does she already know? W-we… just didn’t tell them earlier about the car accident. I’m not
going to be responsible for this. What can we do about that…”
“Alright, just keep your mouth shut!” Braxton disrupted his brother and added, “Do you think you can
escape from being responsible for that? Aiding a murder is no different from the murder itself! She
won’t let us go!”
He let out a scoff and said, “Even if she did forgive us, so what? We’ve already suffered under her
father for a long time. Are we going to continue suffering under her as well? I don’t want that life for me
anymore! I have to risk it!”
Zane had no words upon hearing his brother’s suggestion. He knew that of course. How could he go
back to that lowly life after enjoying power and wealth?
He gritted his teeth and said, “So what should we do now? Sage has revoked my position as Vice
President at Norastar Entertainment. You’re next, and we’ll end up with nothing if she goes on.”
Braxton had an evil thought cross his mind as he exclaimed, “Her father had nothing on us, what can
his daughter do? Don’t worry, this won’t be for long.” As he put down the phone, Braxton turned to his
daughter Yeva and said, “Your marriage with Julian has to be pushed forward.”
