Chapter 445
Ross and Kane looked at Luther and nodded their heads at the same time. “Yes, you did.”
The both of them burst into laughter. Luther, “…”
Inwardly, Luther thought to himself, ‘Why am I always the one who ends up being hurt in the end?”
The gathering between Sage and her brothers only came to an end at midnight. By the time they left the restaurant, all of them were already tipsy and drunk Jim waited for Sage. When Sage came downstairs and noticed that he was still around, she asked, “Mm? Is that you Jim? What are you still doing here? Hop in, I’ll give you a ride home.”
“It’s alright, sis. I’ve brought my car.” Holding Sage by her arm, Jim asked, “Are you alright? Why’d you drink so much?” “Ah, just because!”

“Why’d you drink so much? i’ll go get some aspirin for you.”
Sage complained, “Ross, Kane, and Luther took the chance to get me drunk…oh have you received the wine that I’ve asked Sean to mail to you?”
Tim Shelby replied, “Yeah.” “Good. Sean paid for it but I was the one who came up with the idea.”
Sage then added, “But what matters more is my sincerity, right?”
A low chuckle was heard from the other end of the phone, “Mm-hm.”
Sage’s eyes slowly closed. Listening to the white noise on the phone, Sage murmured, “I miss you a lot. When are you coming home…” Her phone eventually slipped out from her hand. Sage fell asleep but the screen of her phone was still lit up, showing that she was still on a call. The person on the other end of the phone was yet to hang up. The caller ID showed, (Big Brother)
