Chapter 102Sage's POVThe next day, I was at work running meetings till noon. The last meeting with my team of workers had very productive reports. Everything was slowly going back to normal, and I believed if we kept up the pace, we'd be back on track. As for Alex's shares, my employees during my absence had rallied against Alex's involvement in the company's policies, and now, he had multiple things to deal with, including the board's vote of the majority which was in my favor.Considering how terrible, the last two days were for me, this was a beam of light in my dark world.The elevator dinged as it got to my floor, the doors slid open and I walked out. I was coming from discussing some architectural changes with the group of architects who were working on our new project. As I walked past the receptionist area, she flashed me a smile which was returned.Walking into my office area, I saw Violet on her desk, and when she saw me, a wide smile spread across her face. Yes, she had i

Chapter 104Sage's POV"I don't like being ignored, Sage," Diego said, his voice low, a hint of teasing still laced in it. "Especially not when you're upset""I'm not upset," I shot back, trying to regain some semblance of control because I was losing it. He was so close that his scent evaded my nostrils up to my senses."Really?" He murmured, his lips quirking into that infuriating smirk again. "You've been steaming ever since Carla showed up"Why wouldn't I? She was leading you on, shamelessly. My chest tightened as I recalled how she tried brushing her hand against his. Though he had avoided her touch, I still felt infuriated, and he was right; I was steaming. Oh God, no!This was coming off the wrong way."Let me go," I said, my voice faltering as I tried to push away, but his grip didn't budge."Not until you admit it," He said, his tone playful yet firm. "You were jealous, weren't you?"I glared at him, refusing to give in, but the intensity of his gaze made it hard to hold my g

Chapter 106Diego's POVA small frown graced my face as I walked into my grandfather's mansion. I hadn't been here in a while, hell, I hadn't even set my eyes on him since I returned from Vegas.I'd only followed up with his condition through Bella, who remained the ever-chatterbox. Not that I minded at this point because no matter how mad I was at Augusto, he was still my grandfather and I had to care.But his cunningly pressuring Sage for an heir had zapped at my already thin patience for him."Diego, you're here!" Mom called out the moment I'd fully stepped in. She was in the living room and as usual, her eyes were glued to a soap opera showing on the TV. She stood up and smiled tiredly as I headed toward her. She didn't have to say it but I knew she was exhausted. The past few days, she'd spent taking care of grandfather that she barely had time for herself. "Are you okay?" I asked as she pulled me into her embrace. "You look pale. I've asked that you take rest numerous times bu

Chapter 108Sage's POVThe weight of Vincent's question weighed heavy on my chest. I pressed down my tongue trying to reign in the curse words that threatened to burst out.How did he know about the contract?Violet.Anger flared in my chest.Why did Violet tell him about the contract? I know she had a habit of telling him everything but this... Not this as well.I leaned back against the chair and attempted a nonchalant look. I was between admitting it was truly a contract and brushing it off but I knew that with Vince, the latter was the better option. He knew already and it was obvious.I pressed my lips together into a thin line. "Um...""Don't lie to me, Sage. I know all about the deal" He interrupted, eyes narrowing as he stared at me. "You had just gotten divorced, anyone would have thought it through"He had a point, but not everyone managed to see through mine and Diego's bluff – at least half of his family hadn't, but now, I was beginning to doubt it. What if they had known

Chapter 110Sage's POV"Sage!" Violet called my attention and I tore my gaze from Diego back to her.Fuck! I couldn't help it.The moment we stepped into this room, I felt like something was off but in a good way. The hairs on my neck had risen like I knew he would be here but I hadn't pondered in it so much. And just as I realized he was here, Carla was too and she was sitting right next to him, seemingly helping him wipe something off his clothes.Okay, he had stopped her from doing so but still...she was so close to him. Their proximity made my heart burn with rage and jealousy, which I was finding very hard to mask.I tried to keep my eyes on Violet watching as her lips moved, but my eyes kept darting to his frame."Sage, are you listening to me? I just recounted a few important details from the tour, did you get them?" Violet said, staring at me."Mail the details to me. I'll look at them tonight" I responded and threw a fry in my mouth, suddenly feeling annoyed at everything.I
