Yoel truly had the ability to jinx many things.
Jace had been blocked by Sage on every platform, he could not get a hold of her. So, he decided to
use the racecourse as an excuse and headed straight to Norah Group to look for her.
The assistant by the front desk said to him, “Miss Norah has not been to the office in a while.”
Jace frowned and asked, “Where has she been?”
“I’m not so sure either.”
All the assistants shook their heads. “Miss Norah’s schedule has always been packed. Her schedule is
handled by Mister Grant. All we do is wait for his orders.”
Jace finally got a hold of Hunter, but all he said to Jace was, “Mister Yuriel, Miss Norah has been really
busy lately, everything about the racecourse is now being handled by Mister Janssen, he’ll get in touch
with you soon.”
After things in Posie City had been settled, Sage sent Finn back from Posie City to handle the
racecourse.
After Zayne reported things to Jace, Finn appeared.
“Mister Yuriel, I’ll be liaising with you regarding the racecourse from now on, I look forward to working
with you.”
The last time Finn was here, he was the one who told Jace about how Sage had been crushing on him
for many years. So Jace’s first impression of Finn had always been a good one.
However, it could be that Finn had been warned by Sage this time, since everything that came out of
his mouth was just about work.
No matter how Jace tried to probe and ask anything about Sage, Finn would try to change the subject.
Eventually, he could not take the bombarding questions anymore and told Jace the truth.
“Mister Yuriel, I offended Miss Norah last time by sticking my nose in things that I shouldn’t have. She
got so pissed that she transferred me to another office, I’ll never do the same mistake ever again. Or
else I might be sent to the countryside next.”
Jace was speechless upon hearing that.
He had stayed in Salem City for too long now, it was time for him to return to Nadeem City. Before he
left, he told Yoel, “Inform me at once if Sage ever appears.” Yoel hummed yes unwillingly. “You wish,”
He uttered as soon as he hung up the phone with Jace.
Right now, he was having a delicious meal over at Tasteful Restaurant and sipping on a bottle of beer,
feeling completely at ease. Yoel had been forced to stay inside with Jace for the past few days, it was
agonizing.
Unlike the stubborn Jace, Yoel was a wise man who submitted to fate.
Sage was obviously an untouchable woman, Yoel was nowhere as talented and skillful as her. Why
offend her and trouble him in such ways?
Isn’t it better to be obedient and just follow her around?
He would rather offend his friend than to offend a queen.
He valued his life after all.
Sage’s recent whereabouts had been a mystery. Not even Luther was able to get a hold of her. He
eventually found her in the Rosa Garden’s workshop. Luther was covered in white dust the moment he
entered the workshop, immediately putting a mask on.
Luther frowned upon seeing the woman whose face was covered in dust. “How long have you been
here for? You’re turning into a clay sculpture.” Sage patted the powder off her clothes unwillingly as she
observed the freshly grinded diamond ring. She smiled and said satisfyingly, “It’s finally done.” Luther
got closer to sneak a peek, two intricate roses had been carved perfectly onto the yellow colored jade,
under the roses was a tiny face, like a lively princess.
