Jay had no idea how he got back to Garden Of A Diary. Although he desired to run away from this suffocating place, he still found himself back here for some reason.No matter how incompetent his wife was, he knew it in his subconscious mind that he still cared and loved her, wanting nothing to happen to her.Like a calling, love brought him back to Angeline. Despite that, he put on a confrontational expression on his face once again.When he opened the door of the villa, he saw Angeline sitting quietly on the couch. As their gazes met, his eyes were filled with a trace of anger, and she, a touch of guilt.He walked up to her, holding his white blouse in his hand that was now stained with crimson blood. He looked down at her from above.Angeline was forced to raise her head to look at his face. His mesmerizing face was shrouded in anger.Angeline’s countenance dimmed as she asked, "You went to the Ares family?"Jay was slightly taken aback before a self-deprecating sneer emerged
Furious, he released her and staggered away.He did not see Angeline when she fell stiffly to the ground nor did he see her helpless gaze as it fell on his straight, tall back.His words had pierced her chest like a dagger.“Angeline, I really hate living like a clown, like a pawn that everyone uses as they please and manipulated as they wish. I’m leaving now. You’re on your own now!"Angeline was struggling desperately trying to hold on to him and to tell him the truth, but she could neither shout nor move.She looked fixedly at the ceiling as she waited for this damn panic attack to be done and over with.As it happened, she had sent Baby Zetty away not long ago.She had planned to have a long conversation with Jay tonight.She wanted to dispel all the confusion he had but did not expect him to come home with a hostile aura. What was more, her body had failed her, putting her in this state of panic just because he sounded a tad harsh.Since childhood, seeing him angry was so
After hearing what she said, Steven gradually loosened his clenched fists.A trace of hypocrisy emerged on his frosty face. "Since you are injured, stay here and heal your injuries. I will make sure you’re treated fairly.”Madam Ares was pleased to hear that.After the servants took Madam Ares away, a flash of skepticism emitted from Steven's dark and sinister eyes. He turned his head and ordered his personal attendant. "Go and find out what Angeline is currently up to."“Okay.”The soft pattering rain lasted through the night until dawn broke and the bright morning glow shone from the horizon.The golden glow enveloped Grand Asia, leaving behind mottled shadows.When the bell rang, indicating the start of a working day, the bulky doors of Grand Asia’s executive conference room were pushed open. Participants immediately filed into the room.However, Angeline, the leader of this meeting, did not turn up.When Grayson found Zayne, he asked nervously, "Why hasn't Ms. Severe arriv
“Okay."Zayne sent a firm and decisive message to Grayson.Zayne: [Angeline can’t control or manage Grand Asia anymore. Figure out a solution yourself.]When Grayson saw his text, he surmised that something had to be very wrong with Angeline’s health.Grayson stood in front of the french windows while gazing at the rising sun with a dark and gloomy face. "Is God really going to bring Grand Asia to an end this time? This is definitely not what you want to see, right, Father? When you founded Grand Asia as a teenager, you said that you’ll only be worthy enough to stand beside her if you work hard enough to accumulate your wealth and climb to the highest social ladder. Grand Asia is a symbol of you and Ms. Severe’s love. Ms. Severe still loves you, so how can Grand Asia perish just like that?"Tell me, what should I do, Father?"After much deliberation, Grayson paced to the vast conference room.In the past, he would stand right next to Jay or even Angeline. As he stood surrounded
Steven was a sly and cunning man after all. To make sure that the plan was foolproof, he reminded Sera in a particularly cautious manner. "Find a chance to approach Angeline, Sera. Try and find out how serious her illness really is. If my guess is right, Angeline is probably fully paralyzed this time. If that’s really the case, then we’ll join hands with Titus Enterprise in the shareholder meeting five days later and force her to stand down.”Sera glanced at Nancy smugly. It was as if being regarded highly by Steven was equaled to receiving a supreme honor. "Okay, Dad."The next day, Sera disguised herself as a patient’s family member and snuck into Grand Asia Hospital. When she came to the VIP ward, Sera waited for Zayne to visit Shirley before sneaking into Angeline’s ward.Angeline was lying on the bed, paralyzed. When she saw Sera, a hint of anger emitted from her eyes."What are you doing here?"Sera took off her sunglasses and walked up to Angeline.She had, after all, stay
Shirley smiled brightly. “Apples are good. Little Angeline said that apples represent safety throughout the year!”Zayne muttered as he peeled the apples, “Don’t always listen to Angeline. All she thinks about is lovey-dovey stuff. I don’t see how she’s smarter than you.”He continued, “Besides, you’re the bis sis and she’s the little sister. I can’t control her, so you have to help me. Use your authority as Big Sis when she does something wrong and teach her a lesson. She’ll listen to you, but she won’t listen to me.”Shirley replied, “Why would Little Angeline do something wrong? She’s kind, and she treats bad people with amity. She gives everything she has to the people around her. How could I scold her?”Zayne was surprised, so he spat the piece of apple out from his mouth and cringed. “Did you marry me or her? I’ve been with you for so long, but I’ve never seen you worship me like that.”Shirley smiled. “Zayne, Little Angeline wanted us to divorce. Did she mention that to you
Zayne gaped. “My goodness, that brain of Angel’s really is something different. Why didn’t I think of that in the first place?”Shirley smiled and teased him, saying, “If you were able to think of a perfect plan like that, then you would already have a grown-up child with Josephine.”Zayne looked at Shirley. “You… You don’t feel bad about this at all?”Shirley shook her head. “I can’t be happier.”Zayne’s face suddenly became ashen. “Sigh, why do I feel like a failure?”He glanced at Shirley, still feeling somewhat adamant. “So I’m not attractive anymore? You don’t feel the slightest bit reluctant to leave me?”Shirley replied, “If you’re not attractive, then how could you have charmed Josephine? Zayne, I like you too. It’s just that my feelings for you would never be as strong as Josephine’s. I don’t want to get in the way of your happiness as well as Josephine’s. That will only make me feel guilty.”Zayne’s tears welled up in his eyes. He held Shirley’s hands tightly in his. “
Angeline lay on the hospital bed, her delicate face looking old and tired because of her illness.Grayson walked over to Angeline and said, “President, I’ve announced the news of you falling sick, and I’ve postponed the shareholder’s meeting to five days later.”Angeline thought for a while and said weakly, “You did well. That way, it would mean a chance at surviving together both for us and our enemies.”Grayson’s expression became solemn. “We only have five days’ time, but now that you’re very ill, I’m afraid that…”Angeline weakly raised her hand and said, “Although my limbs are not working right now, my eyes and brain are just fine. I’m far from being hopeless. Find a way to tell President Ares the truth and force him to take his position.”Grayson said with seriousness, “I have one more piece of news. I don’t know whether it’s considered good or bad news.”“Just say it.”Grayson hesitated before saying, “Grand Asia’s internal servers were locked by an unknown hacker.”Ange
