Chapter 36
Since Sage had come to save Freya, she decided to help her till the end
Sage decided to send Freya home personally. Sitting in the car that belonged to the “newlyweds”, Sage found the situation ludicrous.
Sage mocked herself for going to such lengths as Jace's ex-wife.
It was an extended Lincolne with enough car seats to accommodate both Faye and Zachary. As soon as Zachary boarded the car, he started firing questions at Sage.
"Sage, where have you been? We've been looking for you everywhere, and Jace had gone through every CCTV recording that he could get his hands on. But he just couldn't find you.”
"Sage, did you really fly the helicopter by yourself? I didn’t know you know how to fly one! When did you get the license? Why didn't you tell us? Can we have a ride too?”
Sage smiled gently and replied, “Of course, but it's raining today and I don't think we should fly it. Next time perhaps?”
"Yay! You're the best, Sage!”
Jace took a glance at Zachary who was acting all excited and cursed him under his breath
He then slapped Zachary on his back and hissed, “Calm down!”
Zachary sat quietly after Jace's warning.
Jace was sitting in the second row. He turned around to catch a glimpse of those sitting in the back seats, only to find his eyes meeting Sages. Sitting beside Freya, Sage sat straight, and she looked calm
Jace furrowed his brows. He noted how much Sage had changed since their divorce. She seemed to be a completely different person.
The way she was looking at him was different too. She did not seem to shy away from him nor did she look at him with excitement. It was as if she was looking at a stranger.
For some odd reason, the change in the look of her eyes made him feel uncomfortable. He felt a tightness in his chest.
Freya and Faye too had a lot of questions that they wanted to ask Sage. Sage had simply told them that she would tell them everything, including her real identity once she reached home.
Everyone in the Yuriel family had gathered. They were all waiting for Sage to reveal everything to them
Standing in front of everyone, Sage scanned the room calmly and said politely, “Grandpa, Grandpa,
Mom, and uncles, I would like to first apologize to all of you. My real name is Sage Norah, and I am
from Salem City,”
Sage then bowed to the elders respectfully.
The elders were all seated while the younger ones in the family were all standing.
Jace stood not far from Sage. Looking at Sage from the side as she revealed her true identity sent a shock through him, despite him knowing her true identity for a while now.
Even he found the situation surprising, not to mention everyone in the Yuriel family. “Salem City?” One of Sage’s uncles was clearly flustered. Looking flabbergasted and startled, he asked, “Don't tell me that you're from the Norah family of Salem City?”
Even though the family name, Norah, was not rare, there was only one Norah family in Salem City. Sage nodded and answered, “Yes, I am Sawyer Norah's daughter.”
