Jay suddenly felt that his kindness was a double-edged sword. Although his kindness protected Jenson's image of his beloved motherly figure, Rose misused his kindness to confuse Jenson in order to get him to her.

‘Shameless!’

At half-past midnight, Rose finally deciphered the hacker's password and resumed the operation of Qilin’s website.

After Rose shut down the computer, closed all the doors and windows, everything was sorted for her to leave. She picked up her bag on the computer desk and was about to leave.

Suddenly, the office door was kicked open from the outside. Right in the middle of the door frame, the lights in the corridor backlit a tall and big figure.

Immediately, the figure’s slender hand moved toward the light’s switches beside the door and the dark office became brightly lit again.

"Sir Ares? Why are you here?" Rose looked at Jay, his entire body piercing cold that would scare anyone by the sight of him. Even though he was always a cold person, he was especially icy that day, so cold that it woudl make anyone shiver.

He strided toward rose, step by step with his long legs, and his eyes bloodshot. Rose's heart started racing and her body moved backward involuntarily.

"Sir Ares!"

Jay's fist suddenly swung toward her. Rose was so frightened that she shut her eyes tight as she could not bear to witness his violence toward her.

However, Jay's fist did not land on her head but on the wall next to her. The luxurious marble inlaid stone wall was unusually hard and Jay's hand was immediately bloody.

Rose was scared badly and her chest undulated sharply. She started having trouble breathing. The copper colored eyes looked at Jay incredulously.

After some time, Rose’s wiry angry voice sliced through the air, "If you are angry at me, just hit me. What’s the point of abusing yourself?”

"Shut up." Jay growled at her. He stretched out his hand to hold her chin brutally and said viciously, "Rose, do you know how much I hate you?"

Rose’s eyes started to water. She loved him but he hated her. The amount of hate he had for her was the same amount of how much as she loved him. They were destined to be two intersecting straight lines, with only one intersection in their entire life, and then departing from each other further and further.

"Why?" Rose asked with a choked voice.

She was also a dignified and decent person. If it was not for her love for him, she would never do all those lowly things.

She gave birth for him!

"Rose. Since your appearance, you have triggered schizophrenia in Jenson. Are you happy with what you’ve done?" Jay roughly held Rose's shoulders and read her crimes against him in an aloof way as if she was his prisoner.

"You’ve confused him and taken advantage of his little heart. You took advantage of his desire for a mother to get closer to me. Do you really think that you can slowly creep your way up to be my wife again?”

"I didn't." Rose felt wronged and felt despair over Jenson's illness.

"Lies!" Jay roared like an awakened lion. "You liar, don't you think you’ve fooled me enough last time? Do you really think that I’ll believe anything you say?"

When he mentioned their previous time together, Rose was speechless.

She lied to him in the name of love.

"Rose, I want you out of Jenson's world completely." Jay announced with the inviolability of a king, "I’ll give you 100 million. Within forty-eight hours, I want you to get out of this country and never come back.”

Rose protested feebly, "Sir Ares, I can't leave..."

"That’s not my problem." Jay's eyes were burning with flames. "Rose, don't forget that your mother's life is still in my hands." His voice was like a lifeless ghoul crawling out of an ancient tomb, squeezing Rose tightly. She felt like she was suffocated and on the brink of death.

Rose looked at the furious man in front of her and tried to comfort him, "Sir Ares, Jens is just a child. It’s normal for kids to behave emotionally. Let me meet Jenson, I’m sure the doctor misdiagnosed him... "

"Rose, don't play tricks on me anymore. Let me say it again, if you don’t leave this country within forty-eight hours, you’ll be waiting to collect your mother’s body!" Jay announced and walked away.

    Jay's heart that was in his mouth finally fell back down. "You know where Jenson is?"Josephine was tooting her own horn and boasted, "I always knew your little boy had an ulterior motive. That’s why when I came to monitor him early in the morning, this little guy slipped out of the house at 6 o'clock as expected. He had his backpack on and took Bus 989 that headed to City North.”Jay felt terrified. In his eyes, Jenson was his little baby in a pen who would never go out without an adult. How did he go so far by himself?"Jay, that’s all I have to say. I’m driving right now, tailing the bus. I’ll call you as soon as I find out anything about him.” Josephine finished speaking and hung up.Before Jay had the time to ask her where Jenson was, he threw the phone aside sullenly.

She thought that it was because she missed Jenson too much that she mistakenly identified Baby Robbie as Jenson.When Jenson saw Mommy running off after seeing him, the tears from the corners of his eyes flowed down.However, Rose ran out again the very next moment and hugged Jenson tightly into her arms."Jens, it's really you." She was very happy and very excited. She picked Jenson up with one hand and locked the door with the other as she shouted at the two sleepyheads in their room, "Baby Robbie, Zetty. Come out. Come and see who visited you.”Baby Robbie and Zetty ran out quickly in their pajamas. When Zetty saw Jenson, her eyes widened. "He looks exactly like Baby Robbie!"Baby Robbie looked at Jenson and smiled.Rose was obviously more excited than the children. She said incoherently, "Wait, let Mommy calm down! I

    After Jay Ares knew that Josephine failed to tail Jenson, he reluctantly made a phone call to Rose Loyle, being worried about the child's safety. Rose was shocked when she saw the name on the call notification. She accidentally loosened her grip and the phone fell on the floor. The phone landed on the floor with a dull thud. The back cover detached from the phone and the power was immediately cut off. The ringing stopped abruptly. Jay Ares was waiting for the call to be picked up when a robotic voice notified him that the other party's phone was switched off. His handsome face darkened. 'How dare she switch off her phone?' Jay decided to personally go to Splendid Town to ask her directly. Just when his Rolls Royce rolled out of the garage, he received a call from Rose. Jay was a little surprised when he saw the call. Then, he remembered that she had to obey him because her mother's life depended on him. Otherwise, she would not be so kind as to return the call. "Sir Ares,

    "You're not saying anything? Have you run out of excuses?" Jay Ares said coldly. Rose Loyle's defiant tone softened by a lot. "I think I need some time to figure out what's been going on recently." Jay immediately ended the call. Rose Loyle roared at Baby Robbie in the play area. "Come over here this instant, Robert Loyle." Baby Robbie dashed over as fast as he could and stood in attention like a soldier in front of Rose. "Robert Loyle reporting in. What's the order, Commander?" Rose Loyle asked with her arms akimbo. "Tell me honestly, what have been doing with Jenson Ares?" "I was wrong, Mommy." Baby Robbie lowered his head and apologized when he saw that his mother was angry. "Stop beating around this bush. This is serious. Tell me everything." Baby Robbie did not dare to hide the truth when his mother said that things were serious. "Don't be angry at me, Mommy, I'll tell you everything.

    When Jay Ares arrived at Block 9 of Splendid Town, Josephine Ares appeared from behind an ornamental rock. "I've waited for so long here, but that Jenson hasn't appeared yet," she said dejectedly. Jay sullenly looked at the closed front door of the apartment complex and turned around to speak to Grayson who had come along with him. "Go to the management office and find out Rose Loyle's unit number." Just when Grayson was about to leave, the apartment door suddenly opened. Rose Loyle appeared with 'Jenson Ares' in her arms. Her eyes were red, evidently from crying. "Sister-in-law?" Josephine smiled when she saw Rose. She received Jay's death glare. "Stop barking. She has no relation to the Ares family." Josephine was cowed by her brother's intimidating glare. "What do you mean? She's Jenson's mommy," she grumbled. Jay was about to eat up Josephine with his eyes. Josephine gently slapped her cheek and admitted defeat. "Alright, alright. I'll just keep my mouth shut. Happy now

    After Jenson shrugged off Josephine, he jogged to the amusement park.The person who had invited him to the amusement park was Baby Robbie. The two brothers were very much in-sync and even wore the same clothes. These were the few they had in the same style—a black Adidas t-shirt, white pants and sneakers. The difference was that Baby Robbie wore a hip hop-style duckbill hat.“Jen—” Baby Robbie had spotted Jenson from afar and was just about to call out to him, but he then noticed a shifty woman following behind him.The woman held a large straw hat in her hands and hid her entire head with it. She wore a bright red dress and kept a distance of about five meters from Jenson, using everything around to cover and hide.Baby Robbie held up his smartwatch and sent a text to Jenson. “You’re being followed by a woman in red.”Jenson did not even have to turn his head to know this woman was his neurotic aunt.“It’s Josephine Ares,” Jenson replied Baby Robbie.Baby Robbie smiled slyly a

    “What did Jenson do to you this time?”“He didn’t do anything to me!” Josephine truly did not know how to tell her older brother. She was afraid this terrible news would make his head spin.Jay’s thoughts remained in the past. “Then what did you do to him?”Josephine said, “I didn’t do anything to him either!”Jay’s handsome face clouded over. “Then what are you crying and howling for?”Josephine’s sobbing turned into wailing. “Brother, something happened to Jenson.”Jay said coolly, “Josephine, can you say everything in one go?”Josephine wiped her tears. Her emotions of grief carried a hint of excitement as she said passionately, “Big Brother, today Jenson sometimes treated me coldly without a care like a freezer in winter, then other times he would be as warm as the sun in June. When he was cold, he called me Josephine Ares and called me neurotic. When he was warm, he called me Aunt Josephine and even smiled at me. Big Brother, in just this short time, Jenson kept switching l

    On one hand, Jay was feeling secretly gleeful that he had disciplined Rose, but on the other hand, he received a phone call from Jenson’s teacher that made him feel unsettled.Over the phone, Jenson’s teacher said, “In these two days, Jenson’s behavior at school has been overly strange. The contrast between his emotions is enormous. Yesterday, he was still a bright and active little cutie, yet today, he’s become a silent little lamb.”Jay quietly hung up the phone. The contrast in Jenson’s emotions was so obvious that anyone who had previously interacted closely with him could clearly feel the incredible change. Could this be a reflection of the severity of Jenson’s schizophrenia?Jay’s feeling of childish delight immediately ceased to exist.In the night, all was quiet and still.The city’s neon lamps were bright and colorful, but they could not shine through to Jay’s dark and gloomy heart.

    Rose protested softly, “You’re the one nitpicking.”It was fortunate she knew his tastes. He liked his coffee on the bitter side, yet he abnormally asked for a coffee seventy percent sweet today. Rose sensed then that he wanted to cause trouble out of nothing.It was lucky that she had been mindful and cleverly exposed his plot. This stopped his unprovoked troubling of her just in time.Only, she had greatly underestimated Jay’s penchant for seeking vengeance for the smallest grievances.Jay turned on his computer and randomly brought up the webpage of a company under Grand Asia. Using his so-far peerless hacker skills, he added a few firewalls to the webpage, then looked at Rose and prepared to let her fall into his trap.“Rose Loyle, Grand Asia’s Qiling’s network has been infiltrated by hackers. Turn on the computer over there at once and return Qilin to normal as soon as possible.”Rose stared at Jay’s smiling-yet-unsmiling eyes and felt that there was something odd about this
