Chapter 697

Freya looked at her with sincere eyes.

“When Jay divorced you, he gave you a two hundred billion check. However, you didn’t take it and left it
behind. I know you don’t care about his money, so I scolded him after that.” “You took care of him for
three years. How could he use a two hundred billion check to get rid of you? It’s shameful.”

“After that, he explained that he didn’t want to give you so much money at once. He was worried that it
would be unsafe for a girl to have too much money in hand, so he planned to give you the rest of the
money after you settled down.”

“He got the property in Nadeem City a long time ago. He wanted to give you the Fairview Residence
unit. He probably bought the unit in Salem City much later. The keys are with me…” Freya turned back
to Aunt Wendy. Wendy handed two sets of keys to Freya, which Freya, in turn, handed to Sage. “Aunt
Freya, I don’t…” Sage wanted to return it, but Freya held her hand and stopped her.

“Sage, please accept it. You can think about the shares. I won’t force you. It’s too tiring for you to
manage Norah Group and Yuriel Group at the same time. I don’t want you to suffer from the burden.”

Freya said, “As for these two houses, I know you don’t want them. Even if you give them to me, I can’t
live in them alone. My son is gone. I only have you as a daughter now. Consider it a gift from me to
you.”

Sage held the two sets of keys and felt a tinge of bitterness in her heart.

Before leaving, Freya urged, “The unit at Fairview Residence is already fully renovated. You should go
and have a look. Jace, he… He left something there for you. He said it’s for you.”

Sage and Laura went to the Fairview Residence together.



Sage unlocked the door and opened it. The moment the door was opened. A fresh and pleasant
fragrance of roses welcomed them.

“It smells so nice.” Laura inhaled and said to Sage, “It smells like you.” Sage said nothing. She quietly
changed into the slippers at the entrance. This was a three-bedroom unit. It was decorated in a modern
and simple style. The color was warm. Even the sofa was in bright yellow tones.

Laura’s lips twitched. “This isn’t Jace’s style. He probably got an interior designer to do it.”

Sage was stunned. She was no stranger to this color and fabric.

When she lived in the Yuriel Mansion, she thought the room’s color palette was too cold. She liked the
cool decor, but she found it unsuitable at that time.

Jace was still recovering and had to stay in bed at home.

She wanted to make him feel better, so she tried to make the house warmer. She went shopping for
several days and decorated the house beautifully. She picked this bright yellow fabric for the bed
sheets and sofa covers. When she first bought them, Jace clearly disliked them. However, he only
twitched his mouth and said nothing. It was Sage’s turn now to press her lips and say nothing. Laura
made herself home quickly. She walked around comfortably and suddenly shouted,” Sage, come here!”
“What’s wrong?”

Sage followed her voice and walked over to see the large walk-in closet filled with all kinds of gift bags
and boxes. There was also a wide range of dolls. It was overfilled with items. There was no room for
walking at all. “What are these? Did Jace buy all these for you?”

Laura was very surprised. She knelt and picked up the closest gift bag by the door and opened it to see
a greeting card inside. On the card was Jace’s bold handwriting. It read, “Twenty-sixth -year-old



birthday gift for Sage. Happy Birthday, Sage. From Jace.”
