When Melody learned that Sage and Yoel were going to the racecourse, she bugged them to let her go
as well.
“Aunt Sage, can I go as well? I’ve always wanted to learn how to ride a horse, but my old man never let
me. How about you teach me?”
She tugged on Sage’s arm and lifted her head to face her. She eagerly looked at Sage with two brilliant
eyes that were filled with excitement. Anybody who saw how eager and adorable she looked would
have found it difficult to say no to her. Sage was no different.
“You have to behave yourself. Don’t fool around when you’re there.” Sage stated her conditions.
Melody immediately held three fingers up happily as if she was swearing an oath.”No problem!
“Kid, how about if you address me as brother again, I’ll teach you how to ride a horse?” Yoel raised his
eyebrows and teased her while he showed his most charming smile.
Melody pouted her lips with dissatisfaction. “Can you stop calling me a kid? i’m already seventeen!”
“I’m about the same age as your father, so you’ll be a kid in my eyes.” —
Yoel was thinking if had also had a child in his 20s like Ross, then even if his child was not as old as
Melody, his child would have been almost eight years old. The thought of that out a shiver up his spine.
“Why are you unhappy when I call you an old man then?” Melody realized that this person was too self-
contradicting. She looked at Yoel. “Who exactly are you to my aunt? It’s very clear that your personality
isn’t her type.”
Yoel was speechless.
He was caught off guard when she attacked him with hurtful truth. “What kind of personality do I have?
What’s wrong with my kind of personality? Am I not better than Jace, who is so cold that he’s frozen
solid? To be honest with you, I’m really your aunt’s boy.” Sage shot a cold glance at Yoel which made
him choke back his words instantly. He was going to say boyfriend, but he forcefully changed it to
admirer.
“-I’m your aunt’s admirer.”
Melody immediately understood what he meant. “Oh, so you’re going after my aunt.”
Just when Yoel was going to nod, she immediately added, “You’ve got no chance then.”
Yoel was speechless. Melody said seriously, “My aunt never liked my father, so of course, she won’t
like you.” Yoel was speechless and the only thing he could do was sigh.
He raised his eyebrows and wanted to smack the kid. “What do you mean? Do you mean I am no
match for your father?”.
“I don’t mean that.” Melody stopped him from rolling his sleeves up and chuckled. “What I mean is that
your personality is almost the same as my father’s. Both of you don’t look reliable. Both of you are not
my aunt’s cup of tea.” Yoel was speechless. He still wanted to smack her, but he held back thinking of
the consequences. What kind of nonsense is she talking about? Does he not look responsible?
After they finished breakfast, Sage instructed Zamora to keep an eye on Yeva. “If she is well-behaved,
then just let her eat and drink as she pleases. If she dares to make trouble, kick her out. If she wants to
die at the hands of the Jefferson family, then she can create all the trouble as wants.”
The Rosa Garden was not very soundproof. Sage also did not deliberately speak softer. She knew that
Yeva could hear her. The volume that she spoke was meant to reach Yeva’s ears. As they were about
to leave, Hunter also came in. Leah handed the breakfast that was packed to him. “You haven’t had
breakfast yet, have you? Here you go.” Hunter accepted it and grinned from ear to ear. “It’s great to
have a wife.” Everyone was speechless after they were forced to watch them display their affection
publicly so early in the morning.
