Chapter 108
Sitting in front of her office desk, Sage looked up to see a man, tall with broad shoulders, walking into the room, dressed in a suit and tie. He was exuding a charismatic and imposing vibe.
This was the first time that they were meeting for business in such a formal setting. It was new…yet strange.
*Please, have a seat.” Getting up onto her feet, Sage gestured to Jace.
Sage was in the same red suit that she was in earlier today. She did not change anything just for him but somehow, there was something different about her.
This was the second time that Jace was in her office. The last time they met, things did not end well between them and he did not get the chance to take a careful look at her office.
The style of her office was somewhat different from her previous style. Rather than a warm tone, the office had a Victorian style, and it was actually rather similar to the style of his office.
After taking a look around, a painting on the wall captured his attention. It was a painting of scenery that had a verse of a poem written next to it.
