"Mr. Morrison, it's illegal to steal. I'm a model citizen, you know." "Anyone else doing so would be committing theft. As his wife, all you're doing is getting sinformation from your husband." His argument rendered Sage speechless.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtShe was familiar with Shane's working style after collaborating with him for a while. He could not seriously be asking for any classified information. She deduced that Giselle Rosethorn was the reason he asked her for help. After a brief moment of silence, she said, "Hasn't Ms. Rosethorn had enough? What do you wantto do?" "You're smart," he said. "Giselle heard from someone that you're starting work at Farsight Investment next month. She wants to join you." "So?" "I think you need an assistant." "No, I don't!" "We have a deal!" With that, Shane hung up on Sage. She was dumbstruck by his rash action.
She thought, "Damn it, Shane Morrison! Why are you stirring up more trouble for me?" He arranged for Giselle to be Sage's assistant, even though he was fully aware of Giselle's hostility toward Sage. Sage thought he was insane.
Feeling frustrated, she kicked the weeds by the flower garden. The weeds, seemingly retaliating against her, sprung back. She angrily stepped on them and snapped, "Try me!" "Pfft!" She heard a chuckle from behind. She turned around and found a friendly-looking man in his mid-twenties. He donned athleisure wear and wore a pair of glasses. He looked familiar.
"Sage, what a coincidence! I never thought I'd run into you here." He approached her with a smile.
From his voice, she finally recognized him as Thomas' grandson, Zachary Brent. After years of not meeting each other, Zachary had shed his youthful naivete and grown mature. He looked refreshed and warm.

I had wanted to pick you up from the airport, but I couldn't make it because I landed at midnight. Sorry about that.” She replied, "Don't worry about Grandpa and I! You're busy enough. We get around just fine." Beaming warmly at her, he suggested, "Grandpa must be chatting with Donald. If you have time, do you wantto show you around the hospital?" "Sure."
The area near the hospital was suitable for walks. The last tSage met Zachary was in her sophomore year They saved each other's En contacts, but they never stayed in touch.
