Chapter 419

Freya was speechless. ‘Where did this girl come from? Are we sure she isn’t a fraud who
is here to trick us? Why does Sage always have so many strange people around her?’ After she
finished treating Freya’s wound, Melody stayed over. She went up to Sage and beamed broadly at her.

“Aunt Sage, can I spend a few more days at Rosa Garden? My dad has been busy with his blind dates
lately, so he doesn’t have time for me. I can only nibble on bread at home. Life is truly bleak, bitter,
melancholic, miserable, and sorrowful.” She even listed a string of adjectives to describe her misery.

Sage chuckled softly and poked the tip of Melody’s little nose. “I can’t let you come over for nothing.
Just stay over. You can stay however long you want.” Melody jumped for joy. “Great! Thank you, Aunt
Sage! I finally don’t need to look at my old man’s face anymore. You have no idea how hard my life has
been since my mother left… Aunt Sage, why don’t you be my stepmother? I certainly won’t have any
objections!” Sage was speechless. “I’m only eight years older than you.” “It’s only eight years, and I still
address you as my aunt. Since you’re already older than me, I’ve got nothing to lose if I were to
address you as my mother.

“Also, those vixens that my old man got don’t look like they were any older than me, but they wanted
me to address them respectfully. They aren’t even afraid of how disgusting that is!” Melody put her
hand on her waist and was extremely furious.

Sage coldly glanced at her. “If you continue spewing nonsense, I’ll give your father a call, and I’ll ask
him to take you home to lock you up.”

As soon as she said that, Melody immediately covered her mouth, and then she motioned that she
zipped her lips. She hurriedly ran away and shouted in a child-like voice, “Zamora, which room am I
staying in?”





Looking at the figure that ran away very energetically, Leah became very amused. “There’s really no
telling what kids nowadays are thinking in their heads. Their ideas are all very strange.” Sage shook
her head. “She grew up with such an unreliable father, and they both depended on each other for
survival, so it’s expected that she turned out to be so strange.” Leah turned around and asked, “Is
Melody Ross’s child?

“Mm-mhmm.”

When she thought of the naughty Ross in her memory, Leah could not help but smile.

“I remember Ross. He stayed in Rosa Garden for a while during our childhood. He’s your mother’s
godson as well. He’s very handsome.”

Sage replied, “Mm-mhmm. It was a coincidence that my mother saved his life. He then took her as his
godmother. I got an additional brother just like that. It’s just that he isn’t quite reliable, and he kept
teasing me.” “It’s… It’s the both of you who tease each other, isn’t it?” Leah exposed her while smiling.
Sage shot her a sidelong glance. “Are you asking for a beating?” “No. Get some rest, Sage. Good
night.”

Leah fled the scene.

Looking at Leah’s figure leaving energetically, Sage could not help but smile. As expected, a girl who
was in love was as sweet as honey. With Hunter doting and protecting her, Leah also became more
lively than before.

That cousin of hers felt alive again, but the other cousin still gave Sage a headache. She simply had
endless things to be worried about… Just as she was preparing to sleep after a shower, her phone
beeped twice. It was a message from Zachary.



(Sage, are you asleep?] (Not yet. What’s up?] After a moment of silence, Zachary sent another
message. (Nothing much. Salem City is going to be raining continuously these few days. It’s cold, so
remember to keep yourself warm.]

Sage was confused. What was Zachary up to?

(Tell me honestly, what trouble have you gotten yourself into? Tell me everything. I won’t tell Jace.)
Jace, who held the phone on the other end, was speechless.
