“W what? Y-you sound disgusting.”
Sage was speechless for a second. She blinked, leaned closer, and grabbed his hand. She shook his
hand gently, “Luther, I’d like to ask you for a small favor…”
“No! No way! I won’t do it!”
Luther slapped her hand, jumped away, and took three giant steps backward.
He looked at her with a wary face as if she was about to do something naugthy to him.
Sage’s face sank. “I haven’t even told you my request.”
Luther shook his head at her and gave her a look. He could easily see through Sage’s intention.
“You want me to help you escape to the branch office, right? Do you think I don’t know what you’re
thinking?”
“If you know then help me,” Sage kept going with her coy act. Luther took another giant step back and
stuttered, “Y-you… Don’t disgust me!”
Sage continued doing it, “Luther…”
Luther wanted to kneel to her in defeat. He put his hand together and pleaded, “Sage, please spare
me. Tim and Kane are the ones who decided to keep you confined. If I help you to escape, both of
them would kill me. I’ll die either way. Why don’t you just make my life easy and let me go this once.”
Luther craned his neck and looked like he was quietly saying, “I’m right here. Kill me if you
want.”
Sage threw a pillow at him, “How can you be such a coward!”
“I am a coward, thank you.” Luther caught the pillow and patted it. “Since you’re trying this hard, why
not just go out on your own accord.”
“L” She was about to say something, but someone opened the door to her ward.
Ross walked in and glanced around the room. He asked, “What’s going on? Who’s going out?”
“No one is going out Nothing’s going on.”
Sagr laughed weakly and sat properly.
Luther’s face lit with impish glee. He looked at Sage as if to say, “Look at you. You’re a bigger coward
than I am when it comes down to it.”
Sage gave him a warning glare
Ross simply ignored the silent Night between the two He said in a clear tone, “Did you know that
Sienna was arrested?”
Sage and Luther nodded in unison. “Yes”
Ross added, “Tim just called me”
Sage and Luther looked up in unison “Tim?”
“Yes,” Ross said, “He spoke to the branch office. Aren’t you both techies? You can just grab the
surveillance video of the interrogation and watch it here. I don’t know how to do that, but you can work
accordingly.” “Oh, f*ck! Right! Why didn’t I think of that?” Luther slapped his head. Ross kicked Luther
with a frown. “Why are you cursing?”
Luther stumbled a little from the kick.
Sage hurriedly spoke for Luther, “Luther is using it as a compliment! He’s praising Tim for being smart!”
Luther smiled, “Yes, yes, yes!” Sage looked at Ross’s inscrutable look and hurriedly said to Luther,
“Luther, come one. Bring the laptop over here.”
Luther answered with a hum and rushed over to grab the laptop.
He pulled the small table, turned on the laptop, and tapped on the keyboard at a fast speed. Sage
complained, “You’re too slow! Let me do it!”
Ross looked at the two little ones gathered together and sighed helplessly. He silently walked out of the
room and sent Tim a message. (Ross: Just like you expected. I took care of them.) A short while after,
Tim texted a curt reply. (Tim: Good.)
