A person’s face and body would appear bigger on camera, especially when no filters were
used. However, Sage’s unfiltered beauty was fully shown.
She was standing at the center of the stage. Her formal clothes were neat and nicely pressed. Her
flowing lush black hair was either tied up into a refreshing high ponytail or a gentle low ponytail. She
stood there naturally with poise and was interpreting and hosting in multiple languages in an orderly
fashion. There was not a trace of stage fright in her. She was speaking eloquently in those unfamiliar
and familiar languages, and she was confident and charming… When he saw that, he could not help
but wonder what had blinded his eyes in the past that he did not realize how great she was.
Jace could not help but be fully immersed in Sage’s charm of being able to speak multiple languages.
Then, for the first time in his life, he actually felt a sense of inferiority. If he did not work any harder, he
truly would not be worthy to be with her.
Early morning the following day. Sage woke up very early. To her, sleep was the best cure to get rid of
her exhaustion. After a night’s sleep, she was feeling completely refreshed. She had just gotten
dressed and was about to leave the house when she received a call from Ross.
She clicked on the answer button and called out, “Ross.” Then, she directly walked toward the guest
bedroom and opened the door to Melody’s room.
No one would ever dare to compliment Melody on her sleeping posture. She was sleeping on her
stomach with her head on the pillow, one of her legs curled, and her bottom slightly raised. The covers
had long been kicked off to somewhere. She looked just like a three-year old who had not grown up.
Sage went forward and slapped her bottom. “Silly girl, your father is on the phone.”
Melody was still in her dreams, so she woke up with great fury. She said in a low voice, “Gosh, get out
of here. I don’t have a father…” Sage said on the phone, “Your daughter doesn’t want to acknowledge
you.”
“Perfect. I’ll be able to save money then.”
Ross, who was on the other end of the call, was not anxious at all. He instructed his disciples – who
were drying the herbs in the courtyard and practicing yoga – his personal opinion. He camly spoke, “If
you don’t think she is annoying, then just let her stay at Rosa Garden for a few more days. If you think
she is annoying, kick her out and it’ll be fine.”
Sage could not stand the pair of father and daughter. “You only have one daughter. How can you bear
to do something like that?”
Sage was speechless.
“Of course I can. I can just have another child. If the first one is ruined, I’ll have another and try with the
next one instead.” Sage was speechless. He was unexpectedly calm and unbothered talking about it.
Sage had him on loudspeaker, so Melody had heard every single word that Ross spoke of loud and
clear. Earlier, she was still half-awake, but now, she sprung up, turned her head, and shouted at the
phone, “Go ahead and have another child. I’d like to see how you can produce another child as smart,
cute, pretty, and stunning as me. Old man, we’re father and daughter after all, right? Let me give you a
piece of advice.” Ross said, “Hmm. I’m all ears.” Melody said, “You can only produce pups if you get
together with vixens. If you wish to turn Mostal into a fox den, then go ahead and spread your wings as
much as you like! Goodbye!” She angrily hung up the call right after. Sage looked at Melody – who was
so infuriated that she was willing to run away from home – and asked curiously, “What kind of girls did
your father have been dating that made you reject them so much?”
“It’s those ugly and flirty ones. In any case, there’s a world of difference between you and them. My old
man is already old. His eyesight isn’t what it used to be. I’m not going to care about him anymore. If he
is willing to degrade himself, then I’ll just let him rot on his own!” Melody was now completely awake
considering the fact that she was passionately cursing her old man. After this energetic burst of anger,
her stomach grumbled from the fiasco. So she pestered Sage to go downstairs for breakfast.
When they arrived downstairs , Sage unexpectedly saw a man sitting in the dining room. He was eating
a sandwich and drinking milk. His posture was so natural that it was as if he was in his own home.
There was no one else but Mister Fulton who could that shameless to come uninvited and be so
unbothered by the others.
While Melody was clinging to Sage and complaining about her father, she was caught off guard when
she saw a handsome man dressed in a tracksuit in the dining room. Her big eyes were sparkling, and
her complaints came to an abrupt halt.
She stared at Yoel. Then, she suddenly tugged on Sage’s shirt and asked, “Aunt Sage, this old man is
really good looking. Is he your lover?”
Before Sage answered her, Yoel first raised his lovely eyes at her and it turned into a glare. “Kid, who
are you calling old man?”
