Chapter 27

Sage shot Michael a smile. “I’ve just registered for a kickboxing class.”

Delight fleeted across Michael’s expression. “What a coincidence! I’m a trainer who specializes in kickboxing!”

It really was a coincidence.

Sage thought the next time she’d meet Michael would be at a business meeting where they’d negotiate about the collaboration. She didn’t expect to see him so

soon.

“I guess I’ll be seeing more of you in the future,” Sage said smilingly. “Have fun working. I’ll be leaving now.”

“Wait, miss!” Michael called out.

“What is it?” Sage asked.

Michael offered shyly, “I don’t know how to repay you for the kindness you’ve shown me back then. Why don’t I treat you to a cup of joe?”

Sage just smiled while shaking her head. “Perhaps next time. I don’t want to take up your time since you’re working at the moment.”

“It’s fine. Actually, I’m about to get off work,” Michael said hurriedly.

Her lips curled into a small smile. “In that case, I’ll take you up on your offer.”

“Okay! Just give me a moment, yeah? I’ll be back as soon as I change my clothes!”

Michael acted very quickly. He had already exited the sports complex by the time. Sage reversed her car out of the parking slot.
