Chapter 770

When Melody came out of the bathroom, her eyes were still as red as a little bunny‘s. Wh
at a sad and tragic first love. At first, Sage was quite disappointed with her niece and thought she could
find a better one, but now, all she felt for her was pity. Chapter 769 After that, Melody just went into the
bathroom and shut the door behind her. Sage wanted to follow her, but Yale stopped her. “It‘s okay. Giv
e her some space.”

On the island, Jace was still undergoing treatment from Primrose. He tried hard to
fight and endure the dizziness from the treatment. He was not about to tarnish his image in front of his
mother–in–law.

“Your skill is very good,” Jace complimented, but his eyes focused on somewhere else. He did not even
dare to take a peek.

Primrose was amused and could not help laughing out loud. “You and Sawyer are quite similar. Nothing
actually scared
the both of you, except the treatment.” As the conversation went on, Yoel felt less frightened. “Oh, so U
ncle Sawyer is the same with

me.”

“Hey, who are you calling your uncle?” Sawyer had good hearing and shouted at the door from outside,
“We are not closed at all!” Jace
pursed his lips like an obedient student. Primrose chucked. She had never understood why her daught
er would actually fall in love with Jace. Despite the outstanding appearance, Jace was not soulful, he pr
actically was just a bimbo in male form. However, after spending time with him for three months, Primro
se discovered some of Jace‘s strengths. He was not a blabbermouth, and no one could guess what he
thought as he always had a straight face. Nevertheless,
there were still times that he was quite amusing. From the time Jace woke up, with the exception durin



g the beginning that his mood was a little low, he quickly adjusted his state later, especially when he rec
eived news about Sage. His mood was improving visibly day by day as if there was
some blessing of faith. He cooperated during the process of rehab and did not require anyone to super
vise him.

Since he had an accident before, he knew the rehabilitation process more than Primrose. He kept on s
aying how Sage helped him and how Sage encouraged him. Sage‘s name had become his mantra, an
d Primrose was so annoyed by it. Whenever he told Primrose about it, she would refute him directly, “I
never knew you love my daughter so much.” Then Jace would admit it sincerely, “I was too late when I f
ell in love with her and also missed the best years in which she loved me dearly.”

After that, he would space out looking at the East for a long time. Not
even God would be able to call his soul back.

Primrose once told Sawyer as she mocked Jace, “Isn‘t there a rock called Amah Rock that resembles a
wife waiting for her husband to return? I think this guy here is about to turn into rock too. I am going to
call him Sage Rock.” Sawyer glared at Jace with a meaningful look. At first, he despised Jace, and he s
aid nothing.

In order to keep their location a secret, this island was nowhere to be found on the map. There were pe
ople who would send food and
necessities over routinely. Other than a few of them, there was no one else on this large island.

Tack was a weak scholar. He only knew how to paint and had zero experience in life. So weak that he c
ould not lift a thing with his hand. Although Primrose was once a secret agent, she was diligent when it
came to fighting. Other than that, she was often a lazy person that would rather do nothing every day. A
ll of the hard work and tiring jobs belonged to Sawyer. Ever since Jace could slowly walk, he started to
help with whatever he
could do. Sometimes, he would follow Sawyer out hunting or fishing. He used to be a special force poli



ce, so he had experience surviving out in the wild. Sometimes, he was able to find something rare. At le
ast he was not useless.

When he was free, he would follow them out to sketch nature. He had laid a very good foundation in his
painting skill. He was also full of knowledge in terms of antiques. Once, he even told them how he won
the bidding of the colorful enamel bowl in an auction from Sage.

Primrose was so thrilled to hear the story. “You are definitely quite the man to be able
to snatch the colorful enamel bowl away from my sneaky and sly daughter.” Sawyer got attracted
by the colorful enamel bowl so much that he kept dreaming of it. There was nothing much to do on the i
sland except talk with each other. Gradually, Sawyer and Jace talked more often, and the time lasted lo
nger and longer. Sometimes they would spend the whole morning or night talking to each other. Primro
se sighed as she saw how fond both of them were talking to each other. She thought,‘ Oh no, oh no. H
e‘s into it. What about our poor daughter?‘





They all said that first love was the best and purest in the world. Nevertheless, getting hurt badly during
the first love might leave a bad influence and affect the rest of the person‘s life.

“Aunt Sage,” Melody called Sage with her sniffy voice.

“Look at you.” Sage waved her hand at Melody and pulled Melody to her side. Then she lightly scratche
d Melody‘s nose. “I thought you didn‘t like him anymore. Then why are you crying?” “I cried because I a
m mad.” Melody‘s nose turned red like Rudolf the red–
nosed deer. “I always heard people saying that you should not fall in love with a playboy, and I disagree
d with them. Besides, those handsome guys often attract many girls to like them, and it‘s normal. But...
but...”



She stomped her feet angrily. “But he was too much. His ex–
girlfriends were like the weed in the garden. No matter how you pick them, they just keep coming!” Sag
e said, “I told you before, but
you refuse to listen. How do you expect a guy to look after his heart when he can‘t even look after his o
wn bird?”

As someone who had experience, Sage knew Melody would not listen to her. Melody needed to experi
ence it herself to understand.

Melody was stunned with a puzzled face. “Bird? What bird?”

Sage pursed her lips. For a minute, she was thinking seriously about how to answer Melody‘s question.
Yale was trying hard not to laugh. In the end, he pretended to cough to cover his laughter. Melody got
distracted and looked at Yale with her big and innocent eyes.

Yale tried to change the subject, “Did anyone look for your trouble?”

It was very easy to sidetrack a child‘s mind. When Yale asked about it, Melody became angry again. “O
h my goodness! His ex–girlfriends actually formed a club and called themself, The Ex –
Girlfriend Squad or something like that. They came running at me and trapped me in an alley. They kep
t calling me their younger sister. I don‘t understand them at all. I never had so many sisters in my life. O
ne of them even wanted to punch me. Luckily I know a little about fighting and barely escaped.”

Sage took the opportunity to teach her a lesson. “Who was the one who refused to learn a martial art? I
f you learned it, then you won‘t have to be chased by them for thirteen streets. What an embarrassment
.”

“Thirteen streets?” Yale was quite impressed. “You can really run.”



‘What a weird thing to focus on.‘ Sage and Melody could not help and laugh.

“Your body is recovering very well.” Sage had arranged for Yale to undergo a few checkups. After she re
report, she was quite satisfied with how well his body recovered.”

At this rate, you will be running and jumping around when spring arrives next year.” Sage gave him a big

Then he saw the wooden hairpin behind Sage‘s head. “That wooden hairpin, is it the one that was broke

Sage was stunned and touched the wooden hairpin subconsciously. She nodded and answered, “Yes.”

“Is it fixed?” Yale was surprised.

Sage answered, “Yes.“.

Yale mumbled, “I didn’t know you can fix a broken hairpin.” Sage‘s feeling was quite complicated. She b

Tim‘s whereabouts had been a mystery lately. No one knew where he was. Since it was almost the end
