Before Sydney could finish her pleasantries, Jay yelled at her, “Scram!”Sydney was so frightened that she stumbled her way out.The room was left with only Rose and Jay now. Both of them were glaring at each other with raging eyes. The atmosphere in the room was suppressed to its lowest.“Rose, how bold of you to threaten me. Do you know that after all these years, you’re the first person who dares to threaten me?” Jay clenched his teeth.Rose smiled victoriously. “Thanks for the honor!”Jay’s expression turned dark. “Since you want to leave Imperial City, I’ll immediately book a flight for you and your daughter! As for Baby Robbie, you can forget about ever bringing him away.”Rose suddenly laughed. It was a bitter kind of laugh.Jay treated Jenson and Baby Robbie like his precious gems, yet he could abandon her and their daughter. However, Zetty was also his daughter. Was it not cruel and unfair for Zetty that he was treating her so coldly and heartlessly?“Sir Ares, I won‘t
Jay was not the least bit bothered by Rose’s provocation, but he was worried about one thing. ‘If a salted fish like her is busy being the savior of the world, then who is going to take care of my son, Baby Robbie?’The thought of his little Baby Robbie being neglected by Rose made his heart extremely uneasy.That day after work, Jay brought Jenson over to Exuberant City. Rose opened the door, and her expression was flabbergasted when she saw Jay.They had just argued so vehemently that afternoon. Where was his self-respect to be visiting her now?Jay was sacrificing everything for his son. Even his morality had been fed to the dogs. With a twinkle in his peach eyes, he smiled gentlemanly at Rose and said, “Jens misses his brother. I’ll bring the boys out for dinner. No objections?”Rose was stunned while remaining standing at the entrance.‘This fella actually believes that he only has two sons? If he continues to blatantly ignore his daughter, Zetty’s fragile heart is going to
After some time, Rose carried a few plates of dumplings out.The small rectangular dining table was full of animal-themed children’s plates. It was starting to look like a zoo. Jay looked at the dragon-themed plate in front of him and was flustered. Was he supposed to use such a childish plate as well?The children cheered as they received their cutleries. They tapped on the plate with their chopsticks and knives.“There’s my favorite carrot and meat dumpling,” Baby Robbie cheered.“There’s my favorite cabbage dumpling,” Zetty cheered gently as well.“And there’s my favorite potato dumpling,” Jenson cooly said.Jay looked at the plate full of semi-opaque and shiny dumplings. Through the skin, the children seemed to be able to see through the dumplings and happily guessed the filling.When Rose carried the last plate of dumplings out, Jenson, who was initially next to Jay, suddenly stood up and left his seat. He went over to Rose and pulled his mommy’s hand, guiding her to Jay.
“You want Baby Robbie to go over to Horizon Colors?” Rose asked.Jay nodded. He thought that Rose would make things difficult for him, but she suddenly passed him a box of dumplings. “Tomorrow’s breakfast.”Jay was stunned and felt rather unexpected that she would agree so readily.Rose looked at his suspicious gaze and explained, “Do not gauge a gentleman’s heart with one’s own measure. I will never drag the kids into our feud.”Jay gave her a rare nod of approval. “It’s good that you think that way.”Rose was rendered speechless. She was always so unbearable in his eyes.Although Jay had achieved his goals, he did not seem to have any intentions of leaving. He remained by the door frame, looking at Rose.“Is there anything else?” Rose asked.Jay seemed to have difficulty putting his thoughts into words as he replied, “Can I bring Zetty along?”Rose was hesitant upon hearing that.Jay did not know that Zetty was his daughter, and his attitude toward Zetty had always been col
“Zetty is very cute,” Jenson chipped in.Baby Robbie and Jenson were like two judges. The two pairs of wolfdog-like eyes were looking directly at Jay.Jay tilted his head and gave their question a good thought. ‘Why does everyone like Zetty, but I just can’t find it in me to like her?’After some pondering, he finally came to a conclusion. ‘I dislike a whole group of things because of one item. Because my heart deeply loathes Rose, I have no good impression toward her daughter as well.’However, he could not tell that to his sons. Jay concocted a lie. “Do I? I don’t dislike her. She is the one who dislikes Daddy.”Baby Robbie pouted. “I can see that Daddy doesn’t like Zetty.”Jay became sullen.Jenson coldly said, “Daddy, you’ll regret it someday.”Jay looked at his two sons who were in synchrony, and his eyes twitched.‘The reason these two brats like Zetty is probably the exact opposite of my reason for disliking Zetty... They love everything in the same category. Because of
Darkness flashed across Jay’s gaze, but his expression remained stoic. He looked at Baby Robbie and calmly explained, “Miss Nancy is not a maid. If all goes well, she will become your mommy in the future. You both should be gentle and affectionate toward her, understood?”Nancy’s mood improved greatly after seeing Jay protect her.Jenson was feeling unhappy inside. His expression was dull, but he remained quiet. However, he was obviously chomping hard on his pizza.Baby Robbie noticed how his big brother was internalizing his displeasure. Baby Robbie’s eyes glowed. He looked at his daddy and curiously asked, “Daddy, what do you mean by ‘if all goes well’?”Jay’s lips curved upward. The little boy’s mischievous gaze was obvious to see.“Don’t worry, all will be well.” Jay ruffled Baby Robbie’s head.That sentence was like a reassurance pill for Nancy. She was secretly chuckling to herself.Baby Robbie nitpicked on the pizza and gave up on the cutleries. He used his hand and tore
Baby Robbie and Jenson walked over to their daddy. Jay gravely told them, “Miss Nancy is Daddy’s chosen woman. There is no use for you both to dislike her because the one getting married to her is Daddy, not either of you. So, keep all your tricks to yourselves.”Baby Robbie innocently asked, “Daddy, after getting married to her, will you be giving us plenty of other brothers and sisters?”Jay answered without hesitation, “Nope.”Baby Robbie asked, “What if accidents happen between both of you?”“There won’t be any accidents.” Jay affirmatively declared.Tears welled up in Baby Robbie’s eyes. “That’s not something that can be guaranteed. Just like Jens and I. Mommy said that it was an accident that we were born in this world.”Jay was dumbfounded.Indeed, Jenson and Baby Robbie’s appearance had not been in his plans. If not for Rose who had used extreme measures to get pregnant, he would not have these two cute and handsome sons now.On a regular day, Baby Robbie’s pair of peac
Jay looked at Jenson and saw that Jenson’s gaze was crystal clear without any impurities. He had raised this child and knew Jenson‘s personality very well. Jenson’s character was similar to his. They were both so arrogant that they did not need to tell a lie to get what they wanted.Jay said, “Nancy, let‘s discuss this another day. I’ll bring the children home first.”Nancy bit her lip. Her hard work was now going down the drain because of the sudden appearance of Baby Robbie. She was feeling aggrieved and resentful.However, she had no choice but to obediently submit to Jay’s arrangements. “Jay, I’ll head home first.”Nancy left reluctantly. Looking at her dejected expression, Baby Robbie and Jenson felt guilty. They were only innocent children.“Satisfied?” Jay looked at the two mischievous boys with his hands crossed over his chest. He questioned them with a furious expression.Baby Robbie hung his head low in obedience after he realized that he had done something wrong. He lo
“Madam Angeline, do you have any last words?” The man showed Angeline mercy and gave her the chance to breathe in some air. Angeline pondered upon it for a while and said, “In the past, I only wished for my family’s peace and my children’s health. Right now, I hope that my children will be able to achieve all of their dreams. I hope that Jens will be able to revitalize our family’s business. I hope that Baby Zetty’s wish for there to be no more pain and suffering in the world comes true. I hope that Baby Robbie’s wish for there to be no more separations in families comes true as well.” The man was stunned. The gun in his hands tilted slightly. “Madam Angeline, wealthy people like you live luxurious lives that are free of worries. How would you ever understand the suffering of ordinary people like us? You didn’t mean anything you said to me just now, right?” Angeline said, “I’m about to die. Why would I lie to you? Although I’m from a wealthy family, I’m also a mother. I love
Angeline said, “Although Jens is young, Whitty isn’t at a ripe age anymore. Whitty has waited for Jens for so many years. She should get something in return.” Sir Ares remained silent. However, there was still an unpleasant expression on his face.Upon catching sight of the expression on Sir Ares’ face, Whitty immediately said, “Daddy, Mommy, Jens and I aren’t in a rush to get married. Jens has decided to get married after having a stable career.”Sir Ares seemed to calm down. Jenson stood up and told Sir Ares, “Daddy, I’d like to marry Whitty.” Sir Ares cast a sideway glance at him and asked, “What’s the reason behind your decision to do so?” Jenson said, “I love her.” Sir Ares’ lips upturned slightly. Not only did Jens’ personality resemble that of his, but his outlook on love was similar to his as well.Upon recalling how persistent he was while pursuing Angeline when he was young, Sir Ares knew that he could not stop Jenson.The relationship between father and son w
Sir Ares stared at Angeline speechlessly. At this moment, their memorable love flashed across his mind. He had once loved someone so deeply. He could go against his parents for her as well. Sir Ares sighed and said, “You really can’t keep your children by your side once they’re all grown up.” Angeline stared at the dispirited man before her. Her heart hurt for him. She reached out to hold his hand. Sir Ares smiled at her as she warmed up his hands. He said in an understanding tone, “Angeline, you’re still the best.” Angeline smiled and said, “Of course, I’m the best. That’s because I’m the only person who will stay by your side till the very end. Gale is such an existence for Angel, and Finn is such an existence for Baby Zetty as well.” Sir Ares said, “Alright, stop teasing me. I got it.” Yes, love was above anything else in the world. That was the tradition of the Ares family. Sir Ares was madly in love with Angeline. However, when it came to others, he felt that
However, when Angeline found out about Grayson and Andy’s marriage, she insisted on holding a grand wedding for them.Angeline and Sir Ares called Andy before them. Angeline spoke up in a touched voice, “Andy, I’ve always treated you like my biological daughter. Now that you’re getting married, I’ll marry you off just like you’re my daughter.” Angeline handed a set of jewelry, a bank card, and a key to Andy. She said, “Andy, although Baby Zetty is married, we didn’t hold a grand wedding for her. I don’t know how other families marry off their daughters. Since you’re a girl, you’ll feel secure after having your own property. You’ll have your own freedom after having your own car. You’ll take the effort to dress up after having your own jewelry.” Andy cried tearfully, “Thank you, Mommy.”Angeline hugged Andy and patted her back as she said, “Don’t cry. You must come back often to visit in the future.” “Alright.” After Angeline finished speaking, Sir Ares stared and Grayson an
Whitney handed the envelope over to Andy and said, “Miss Laurel asked me to hand this to you.” Andy slowly opened the envelope under the sisters’ curious gazes. A red spider lily specimen fell out of the envelope.Tears filled Andy’s eyes when she saw it.The sisters all burst into tears. Whitney said, “I don’t know what meaning it holds for you, but I guess Laurel wants to convey something to all of you since she wanted me to hand it to you. Have you understood what she wants to tell you?”Andy cried out loud, “This is the blood oath that we made at the military intelligence division. When we swore to be sisters, Sis Daisy mentioned that although our fates were predetermined in this lifetime and we don’t get to decide how long we’ll be able to live, we can wait for the sisters in the afterlife after death. We must wait for everyone to gather before reincarnation. We can then be reincarnated as sisters in our next life.” Whitney was touched by this beautiful oath. She teared
Jenson then ordered the servants to search every nook and cranny of Tourmaline Estate and Imperial Capital. Baby Robbie seemed to have vanished into thin air. There was no sign of him anywhere.Sir Ares sighed after hearing the news. Angeline gave up after the long search. She told Jenson, “Don’t look for him. He’s all grown up now. We can’t restrain him anymore. Don’t waste more human and physical resources searching for him. Manage Tourmaline Estate well. You and Whitty will have to take responsibility for this household in the future.” Jenson stared into his mommy’s calm eyes. Although he was curious as to why his mommy, who loved her son more than her own life, could react so calmly to his disappearance, he kept that question in his heart. “Yes, mommy.” After leaving Chateau de Selene, Jenson returned to his room in an upset mood. Whitty walked into his room with a cup of hot tea and placed it in his hands gently. “Jens, you’ve been busy every day lately. You must look af
Baby Robbie nodded sternly. After Angeline’s health recovered a little, Baby Robbie paid her a visit at once. His face no longer gave out a childish air. His handsome face exuded a sharpness that resembled that of his father’s.Angeline knew that Baby Robbie would be filled with guilt for the rest of his life after this incident. She also knew that he would change his habit of fooling around and not thinking before acting. “Mommy, it’s all my fault. If I didn’t blindly believe in her, she wouldn’t have the opportunity to damage Tourmaline Estate,” Baby Robbie said. He was filled with self-guilt. Angeline said, “Baby Robbie, I know what you’re thinking. I’m having the same thoughts right now.” ”Baby Robbie was stunned. He glanced evaluatively at the weak and exhausted expression on his mommy’s face. Somehow, Baby Robbie felt upset on behalf of his mommy. It turned out that he was not the only one who did not have a good eye for people. His mommy was in the same boat as we
Jenson decided to rebuild Tourmaline Estate with the underlying theme of ‘remembrance’. Baby Robbie fell silent after looking through the design plans.“Jens, do you think that I’ve committed a huge sin?” He suddenly voiced out his thoughts. Jenson shook his head and said, “Baby Robbie, you didn’t want any of this to happen. However, you should’ve learned your lesson by now. You can’t be kind to everyone at all times.” Baby Robbie nodded and said, “I didn’t understand the meaning behind these words in the past. I get it now.” Jenson was stunned. After Baby Robbie left Jenson’s place, he paid a visit to Angel’s courtyard. Angel was now around seven years old. She was extremely tall and mentally mature. Therefore, she did not seem like a child at all. “Brother, I heard that you haven’t been in a good mood lately. I wanted to look for you since some time ago. However, look at the state that I’m in. How can I go out?” She waved her sleeves slightly. The furniture within the
Sir Ares stared at Sis Thirteen coldly. His gaze was devoid of the fatherly love that he had always shown her.“I knew that you had a hidden motive when you moved into the Ares family back then. However, I didn’t expect you to be so evil and have such a cruel heart at such a young age. Angeline’s love and adoration toward you didn’t warm your heart at all. To me, you’re not just a traitor. You don’t have a heart at all.” Sis Thirteen stared at Sir Ares in shock. Sir Ares’ scoldings seemed to help her better perceive herself. “You hurt my father. You hurt my daddy. That’s why I steeled my heart and decided to take revenge on the Ares family,” she cried out loud. Sir Ares said in a harsh tone, “Karma exists in the world. Why would I hurt him if he didn’t abduct my children? You don’t have the ability to discern right and wrong. You’re just making excuses for yourself. Do you think you’re being reasonable right now?” Sis Thirteen shook her head in devastation. “I only know that
