Chapter 40 She Truly Lacks Nothing

Seeing the sincerity in the man’s eyes, Corynn reached out and accepted the business card from the man in black, glancing down to silently read the name on it, printed in gold letters.

Sage Brook.

“Thanks for your card,” she said politely.

Sage smiled and, upon taking a closer look at Corynn’s face, suddenly felt a strange sense of familiarity. “How old are you?” he asked curiously.

“Twenty–seven,” Corynn answered.

A sad expression crossed Sage’s face as he turned to gaze out the window.

Puzzled, Corynn couldn’t help but ask, “Mr. Brook, is something wrong?”

“You remind me of my daughter,” he murmured wistfully. “She would’ve been around your age now.”

Corynn understood immediately that Sage’s daughter must have passed away.

Snapping out of his reverie, Sage turned to look back at her and added, “Mr. Brook‘ makes me sound so old. Just call me Sage.”

“If you say so, Sage,” Corynn said with a grin.

The two chatted for a little while longer before Corynn excused herself and returned to Sofia’s ward.
