Chapter 466

Sage’s place was not far from the Yuriel Mansion.

It was only two blocks away.

Looming District was an old district in Nadeem City, and it was also an area for the wealthy. It was quiet
and private, with a library nearby and a police station just around the corner. It was also where Nadeem
City’s biggest antique shop was located. It was not the first time Luther had gone to the place. The
house was actually bought with his name, but Tim was the one who paid for it. There were no
installments nor a mortgage, as it was paid in full. Which meant that the house was chosen by Sage,
under Luther’s name, and paid for by Tim.

Jace was oblivious to all of it, of course.

However, what Sage said to him was not entirely made up to hurt him.

They said home is where you feel the safest, and when Sage could not go home during the three years
in Nadeem City, she decided to find a temporary shelter.

The first year of her marriage with Jace was the toughest. During that time, Jace’s health was still
horrible, and he was going through the hardest stage of recovery. For a police officer in a special force
team who used to be able to climb the walls, being paralyzed in the bed was worse than death.

Jace was a man with a tough personality, and he was not a person who would show his emotions. He
would lie in bed without saying a single word for days, and everyone was afraid of triggering his temper
and would walk on eggshells around him. The air in the room was always depressing. Sage was his
nurse and later became his wife. She was Jace’s closest person during that period of time.

She was also the person who took on his emotional baggage the most.



Jace would take it out on her. At that time, Sage was still grieving her parents’ death, and she could not
provide him with the warmth he needed. Jace kept things to himself without an outlet to cope. It was
agonizing

That year was Jace’s lowest point in life, but so was Sage’s. No. 1107, Unit No. 2, Block 11, Looming
District, was where Sage could truly relax. Not much had changed since she left Nadeem City around
two months ago The house was secondhand. Its previous owner was an interior designer, which was
why the house was nicely renovated. Sage was content with the previous tenant’s design, so she did
not make any major changes when she moved in.

Sage also hired a maid to clean the house regularly, so when they first stepped into the house,

it was squeaky clean and very pleasant to the eyes. “Aunt Sage, is this your house? It looks great.”
Melody said with her hands tied as she hopped to the window and looked down at the blue lake and
flower garden. “Hold off the house tour for now. Come with me.” Sage brought Melody to the master
bedroom after having Luther take a break. Melody turned around to face Sage when they were in the
room and said, “Please release me, Aunt Sage.” “Are you going to run away again?” Sage asked. “No.
Never again,” Melody said obediently. “I’ll beat you up if you dare to even attempt,” Sage said coldly.

Sage left Ross with a car and had her assistant, Louis, stay back and wait for him. After the
conversation with Yoel was done, Ross left with Louis in the car.

Jace had someone follow them behind to see where Sage’s place was at. Jace could not believe he
had no idea that Sage had a house in Nadeem City, and what she said to him had definitely hurt him
deeply.

‘It’s a place where I got to relax by myself because you had such a bad temper.’ Jace felt as if his chest
had been stuffed with sand, and he felt like he could hardly breathe. How horrible of a man was he



back then that had caused her to suffer silently and repressed to the point where she had to escape to
another ‘house’ in order to relax?
