A Relentless Pursuit for Love

Chapter 97

After dinner, Yeva showed up in the study room with Leah.

Sawyer Norah had designed the room to his taste, quaint but comfortable. On one side of the wall was a shelf filled with books.

There were a lot of antique vases and Victorian paintings in the room. Yeva and Leah had seen these accessories in their fathers’ room, but they were never allowed to go near or touch them.

Sage was flipping through a book while Yeva started reciting the house rules.

Yeva did not put much time or effort into memorizing the rules. Yeva had reluctantly tried to memorize some of the rules because she knew she had to face Sage today. However, as there were hundreds of them, she had not lasted a minute. Yeva could not remember them all.

“You’re done?” Sage looked up from her book slightly when Yeva suddenly stopped reciting.

Yeva nodded. “I’m sorry, Sage. I wasn’t able to finish memorizing all of them, but don’t worry, I will be sure to stick by all the rules.”

“Good to know. Now tell me, how many did you leave out?”
