With her big round eyes, she stared at Jace and asked, “Uncle, who are you?”
‘Uncle?’ At that moment, Jace suddenly felt he had aged a lot. He did not know if he should laugh or
cry. Since Melody was Sage’s niece, he felt like he had already grown closer to her. He twisted the
corner of his mouth as if he was teasing a little kid and said, “This is my house.”
Melody did not understand it at first. Then she suddenly remembered she was in Yuriel Mansion. She
quickly responded, “Oh, so you are Jace Yuriel, my aunt…”
Just when she was about to stand up and before she could mention the word, ‘ex-husband’, Sage
stopped her and shouted, “Kneel down.” Hence, the scared little bunny could only continue to kneel.
Her eyes were glaring at Jace as her face was full of resentment. “So you are the heartbreaker who
hurt my aunt and made her become a different person. I hate you.” Jace was speechless by her
comment. Later, Melody turned her head and talked to Yoel,” Brother Rich, don’t play with him. There is
nothing good he can teach you. What if he teaches all the bad things?”
Yoel joined Jace in being speechless. Once again, the atmosphere became awkward again. An old
maid, who had been working in Yuriel Mansion for many years, took courage and called out,
“Madam…”
Sage looked at the old maid, “Aunt Lorne.” She wanted to tell her that she was no longer their madam.
Before she could say it out, Aunt Lorne was already shouting out excitingly, “It’s Madam. It’s really you!”
Followingly, those who had been working in Yuriel Mansion for many years and those who had spent
time with Sage quickly surrounded her. All of them were so excited that tears were in their eyes.
“Madam, you are finally back…”
The once tense moment suddenly became a very touching reuniting scene. Ross and Luther silently
stepped aside, leaving Sage alone in the crowd to enjoy the touching moment. Whereas Jace was just
standing at the side looking. He seemed to be enjoying it too. It took fifteen minutes for Sage to finally
comfort everyone. ‘How badly did Jace make them suffer after I left?’
Well, Jace had never really tortured them. Aunt Lorne was just complaining about how the house was
not a home when Sage left. Most of the maids were born and raised in the Yuriel family. They used to
take care of Jace’s grandparents and Freya, so they had a special relationship with the Yuriel family.
They did not dare to think they were members of the Yuriel family, but they had already felt that the
Yuriel family was their home. That was why they had been taking care of everyone with their love and
tenderness.
After Sage and Jace married, Freya had sent some of the maids over from the old residence. She was
scared that the new maids might not do a good job and also worried that Sage, the country girl, would
not be able to control them. Hence, she specifically picked those maids whom she knows are good at
their jobs and would not bully Sage.
Ever since Sage stayed in Yuriel Mansion, Sage had been a very good employer who would appreciate
and be strict accordingly. She had spent more time with the maids than Jace, who was not around most
of the time, so inevitably, her relationship with the maids was much closer too. Well, except for the
butler.
Sage looked at the butler with surprise and yet expected to see him. “Mister Joseph, are you in charge
of Yuriel Mansion now?” Joseph nodded slightly and stepped forward to take a bow, “Good day,
madam.”
Joseph Lindow was the son of Aunt Wendy, Freya’s butler. He used to work in the old residence taking
care of Jace’s grandparents. She did not know Joseph was being assigned to work in Yuriel Mansion.
She started to wonder what had happened to Mister Paul, the old butler… Joseph quickly explained,
“Mister Paul was getting old, so Young Master decided to let him resign in advance to go back to his
hometown.” Sage frowned.
