Calculate the results of a multivariate logistic regression model in R

I would like to build the results of multivariate logistic regression analysis (GLM) for certain independent variables, adjusted (i.e., regardless of the relationship included in the model), with the result (binary).

I saw posts that recommend the following method using the command predictthat follows curve, here is an example;

x     <- data.frame(binary.outcome, cont.exposure)
model <- glm(binary.outcome ~ cont.exposure, family=binomial, data=x)
plot(cont.exposure, binary.outcome, xlab="Temperature",ylab="Probability of Response") 
curve(predict(model, data.frame(cont.exposure=x), type="resp"), add=TRUE, col="red")

However, this does not work for multivariate regression models. I get the following error when I add "age" (arbitrary - can be any variable of the same length) as a mixing variable;

> x     <- data.frame(binary.outcome, cont.exposure, age)
> model <- glm(binary.outcome ~ cont.exposure + age, family=binomial, data=x)
> plot(cont.exposure, binary.outcome, xlab="Temperature",ylab="Probability of Response") 
> curve(predict(model, data.frame(cont.exposure=x), type="resp"), add=TRUE, col="red")
Error in model.frame.default(Terms, newdata, na.action = na.action, xlev = object$xlevels) : 
  variable lengths differ (found for 'age')
In addition: Warning message:
  'newdata' had 101 rows but variable(s) found have 698 rows

set.seed(12345)
dataset <- expand.grid(Temp = rnorm(30), Age = runif(10))
dataset$Truth <- with(dataset, plogis(2 * Temp - 3 * Age))
dataset$Sample <- rbinom(nrow(dataset), size = 1, prob = dataset$Truth)
model <- glm(Sample ~ Temp + Age, data = dataset, family = binomial)
newdata <- expand.grid(
  Temp = pretty(dataset$Temp, 20), 
  Age = pretty(dataset$Age, 5))
newdata$Sample <- predict(model, newdata = newdata, type = "response")
library(ggplot2)
ggplot(newdata, aes(x = Temp, y = Sample)) + geom_line() + facet_wrap(~Age)

  geom_line()
