A Relentless Pursuit for Love novel Chapter 81

Chapter 81

As soon as he had reached Nadeem City, Jace had been bombarded with texts from Yoel. He was puzzled as he went through the texts back in his office.

What did Sage have to do with Chef Myles Damian and the Damian family?

He certainly was aware that Sage knew how to cook.

Back when he was bedridden, she had cooked for him, but he did not have the capacity to enjoy food. He even remembered even knocking over a tray of food that she had prepared for him.

Later when he was discharged from the hospital, Sage had also cooked for him several times.

However, most of the time he had never eaten her food either because he had eaten before coming home, or he could not be bothered to even try it. He had often just glanced at it as it sat on his desk.

Thinking about it, Jace realized that Sage had treated him really well, but he had taken her for granted.

Reaching for the rose seal that Sage had gifted him, Jace traced his fingers wistfully over the name that was engraved on it.

Could it really be that one would realize the importance of a person once they are gone?

“Goodness gracious, that is one filling meal!”

Rubbing his belly as he walked out of the restaurant, Yoel was deeply satisfied with the meal that he had.

He looked at Sage and asked, “Tell me, is it true that Chef Damian was once your pupil?”

Sage nodded

Facing her, Yoel asked, “Say, how many skills do you have tucked away?”

Sage chuckled. “Get lost!”

Yoel too pulled into a smile.

Underneath the rays of warm sunlight, the grin on Yoel’s face looked especially bright. With his eyes lit up, he said, “You’re such a treasure, and I find myself liking you more and more each day. What should I do?”

“I don’t mind as long as you don’t fall in love with me.”

Putting on a pair of shades, Sage got into her car and said, “We’ll keep in touch after you discuss the matter of the racing track with your dad. I’ll be waiting for your good news.”

“Sure thing.” Yoel gestured an ‘okay’ and asked, “So, when will I get the chance to taste your cooking?”

Sage looked at him and replied, “We’ll see. Perhaps when I’m in a good mood.”

Leaning against his car, Yoel put on his shades and flashed a wide grin at her. “Well, I suppose I have to work harder to make sure that you’ll be in a good mood every day.”

Sage had not given much thought to Yoel’s greeting. She had assumed that he had not meant anything by it.

However, as soon as she arrived at the company, Sage was greeted with a bouquet of 9999 red roses. It took three people to carry the bouquet. It was a rather grand sight.

“Miss Sage, these flowers are from Mr. Yoel. He wishes you to have a good day today!”

The delivery man took out a notebook and requested, “Could you please sign here?”

Sage was baffled. She was suddenly reminded of Yoel’s cheeky smile.

So this was what he meant by he would “work harder”…

Right at that moment, she received a notification from WhutsApp, and it was from Yoel.

(I know it’s cliche to be receiving roses, but only roses could represent how my heart burns for you. Love you, XOXO!]

xo… Xo ?

Yoel was acting as if he was a teenage girl in love.

Sage chuckled and sighed at the same time as she signed her name. The bouquet had caused quite a stir in the office.
