Chapter 787

Sage was speechless. Tim was really a cold-hearted man. If acting cute to him did not
work, that meant she would have to train to the hardest.

Sage picked up an oversized water tumbler and finished half of the bottle in gulps.

Yale walked over to Sage and asked with a faint smile, “Tired?”

“Yeah, yeah!” Sage pursed her lips and wiped the sweat from her face with a towel.

“It’s been a long time since I had such intense training. I feel like I’m a child again.”

Even so, Sage felt like she had less energy than she had as a child. When she was a child, she was
tireless in long training sessions. Now, she was huffing and puffing after two rounds of training

Yale said, “You’ll exhaust yourself if you constantly stay on offense. Your attack is already very fierce,
but men always have the upper hand of their natural physical strength. There’s no point in hitting them
hard.”

Yale gave her some tips and said, “What you need to practice now is how to defend. Try to attack your
enemy’s weaknesses with as little effort as possible…”

Sage carefully listened as Yale taught her a few moves. Then, she went back to fight two more rounds
in the ring. Tim’s face turned less grim. He looked slightly pleased.

Tim turned to Yale and suggested, “I think it’s time to get her a new sparring partner.”

“You didn’t eat enough today?” Primrose looked at Jace, who was fighting her. She frowned in
displeasure. “How are you going to protect my daughter if you’re only this strong?” “What’s with the
aggressive tactics?” Jack stood beside and watched them worriedly. “Why kind of son-in-law will fight
with his mother-in-law? If he hurts you, wouldn’t you both turn on him?”



Sawyer watched them coldly and said in a deep voice, “If he can’t even beat Primrose, he’ll be killed
before he even gets close to Shawn.” When Jack heard that, he immediately yelled at Jace, “Jace, your
father-in-law has spoken! If you defeat your mother-in-law, he’ll accept you as part of the Norah family!”

Sawyer was puzzled. He glanced at Jack coldly. How could he pass a fake message like that?

It was true that Jace did not dare to attack Primrose, but Sawyer’s ‘offer’ was too tempting. In that
case, he would not hold back anymore. Jace switched from defense to attack. He lowered his left
shoulder and ducked Primrose’s fist. Then, he spun on his feet and moved quickly. He was behind
Primrose in a flash and slashed his hand on Primrose’s shoulder lightly. He did not dare to use too
much force, but it was enough to make half of Primrose’s body go numb. It was a beautiful slash!

The look on Sawyer and Jack’s faces changed.

Primrose felt a chill from the back of her spine. She turned around and looked at Jace with a grim face.
If Jace had used a real weapon instead of his hand, he would have severed the aorta in her neck.

This kid was as fast as a flash, but his leg was not fully recovered yet. Did he think he was the flash?!

Jace only used ten percent of his strength in that hit earlier. He felt guilty for fighting with Sage’s
mother. When Primrose stared at him like that, he felt even weaker.

When he met Primrose’s eyes, he apologized almost instantly. “I’m sorry! I was wrong!”
