Carson muttered, "If Old Master Yorks’ words can be trusted, then even pigs will start flying. Who knows, the branches in front of this widow’s house might have been distributed to each and every man in the Yorks’ stronghold.”Cole started smirking like a fool. "I can’t go around ruining other innocent women’s lives, can I? She’s the perfect candidate.”"Black Widow," Carson shouted at the top of his lungs.Black Widow was wearing a cotton-padded jacket and sashayed out of the house.The women living in the mountains would often get married early. Black Widow got married before she even turned 20 and was only 24-years-old this year because her husband passed away very early. Due to that, she still carried the tenderness that of a young woman.When Black Widow saw Cole, she was left nonplussed.“Whoa, what brings you here, Young Master Yorks?"Carson said, "You’re in luck today. Young Master is interested in you. Make sure you serve him well tonight.”A woman who was once marrie
The assistant next to her unzipped the luggage and fished out a heating pad, handing it to Baby Zetty. "Here’s the heating pad, miss.”Baby Zetty refused to take it and pouted. "A heating pad can’t keep me warm enough!" She just wanted Brother Finn to hold her."Use two then." Jenson's cold voice sounded again. His thin and attractive lips curled into a malicious smile as he cursed in his heart, ‘You cunning little thing!’Baby Zetty stared resentfully at Jenson, her eyes turning inexplicably pink.Jenson was slightly stunned, his heart of stone softening at once.He stretched out his hand toward her, his tough and unyielding attitude turning tender and soft. "Come here. I’ll hold you.”Baby Zetty melted into smiles as she rushed up to him immediately.Jenson draped his arm across her shoulders and exhorted softly, saying, "Remember, when we arrive in Peach Blossom County, don't talk to strangers and don't follow strangers. If you’re taken away by bad people by accident, do you
"Get out." Cole snapped. "Can’t you see that we’re busy?”Carson rushed out while covering his eyes with his hands. When Cole got dressed and walked out, Carson came forward and asked in disbelief, "You were actually serious about sleeping with her, Young Master?"Cole licked his sexy lips, looking satiated after having a satisfying meal.Carson was so irritated that he knocked his head against a tree trunk. "How did this happen? You were always able to crawl yourself out alive even when someone threw you into a sea of women. How did Black Widow subdue you?”Unwilling to believe that his young master was the one who took the initiative, Carson vented his anger on Black Widow. "That Black Widow is really something, huh? How dare she use her petty little schemes on our future patriarch?”Cole chided him, "I did it voluntarily."Carson was dumbfounded.Was Young Master so hurt by the last relationship that he did not even care who he chose as a partner now?"What are you doing h
The person in charge raised his eyes, glanced at the ordinary-looking Nine Paintings in Jenson's hand, and teased. "How can you call this a precious treasure? At best, it's just a work of art that’s painted slightly well."Though Jenson appreciated the other party’s aesthetic judgment, he deliberately made it sound mysterious. "You won’t be able to tell whether this is a precious treasure or not."In order to increase the value of the treasure, Jenson handed out a Diamond Card. "As long as you can ensure that the auction goes on smoothly, I’ll pay you five million bucks. Deal?""Five million?" The person in charge was so astounded that he carefully examined Nine Paintings again, yet even so, he did not find anything that stood out particularly.Despite that, money had been difficult to make these days, so they were willing to accept both large and small deals here at the auction platform. If the other party was willing to pay them five million for their labor fees, then this might
Peach Blossom County.When Jenson returned to Flower City Hotel and caught a whiff of the fragrant strew, his icy and dashing face broke into an imperceptible smile."Brother."As soon as Jenson entered the house, Baby Zetty rushed forward to greet him.She raised her hand that had been stained with flour and said with delight, "I’m making a wrap. Want to do it together?”Jenson glanced at the flour tortillas spread over the kitchen counter and let out a gentle smile. "Mm."The two siblings made a lot of tortilla wraps. Baby Zetty began counting. "Daddy’s, Jens’, Mommy’s, and mine… Huh? There are leftovers.”Baby Zetty was stunned for a moment before realizing what was going on.Her beautiful face turned dull and gloomy at once. "It's a pity that Baby Robbie can't eat the wrap we’ve made for him."Jenson, on the other hand, said confidently, "Don't worry. I’m sure he knows that we care for him.”It was just a matter of time.This was just like the time when he was away from
Finn patted Baby Zetty and Jenson on the shoulders. It was only then did the two children snap back to their senses.Baby Zetty brought the chicken stew to Mommy.Just as she picked up the spoon to scoop the stew, Jay suddenly stretched out his hand and commanded in a domineering tone, “Give me the bowl.”Baby Zetty had no choice but to pass him the bowl.After taking it, he took a sip, then frowned and complained, "The chicken is too hard to chew, there’s too much pepper, the stew is too greasy, and it numbs the tongue. Don’t drink it, Angeline.”Baby Zetty, “...”Was her chicken stew really that bad?Angeline took a sip of the stew and savored it slowly before praising, "The stew is obviously very good. The chicken is juicy, the pepper and ginger match perfectly, which makes the stew absolutely rich and flavorful.”Jay asked bitterly, "Does it taste better than the stew I make?"He then added sulkily, "I don’t like drinking chicken stew.”Sensing his jealousy, Angeline star
The doctor came up with a diagnosis for Angeline and concluded that she needed to be kept under observation.As for Jay’s eyes, it was a tad more tricky because his vision loss happened due to poisoning. "Mr. Ares, a special antidote is needed to reverse its effect. But I’m afraid that you’ll miss out on the optimum treatment time as a certain amount of time is required for the extraction and refining of the antidote."Jay seemed calm. "Don’t worry about my eyes. I need you to find a cure for Angeline so that she can get better soon." There was nothing he cared about apart from everything that was related to Angeline.“Yes.”When the medical team left the rental house, Jenson lingered in Catalpa Garden to gather information related to the residents living on the same floor as his parents.When the owners returned home, Jenson blocked their way outside the door and said in a straightforward manner, “I want to rent your house, mister."“I’m sorry, but my house isn’t for rent.”"I’
Cole lay on the ground and said in an unruly manner, "There are so many strong and capable men in the Yorks’ stronghold, yet you chose a weak and inept person like me as your hostage. Do you think they care about whether I live or die? Listen, if I’m dead, then Spencer that b*stard will only send me off to the netherworld by beating his drums and blowing his trumpets.”The young man smirked maliciously. "Cole Yorks, you’re the young master of the Yorks’ stronghold. Why do you even bother trying to belittle yourself?”Cole was petrified.“You… You recognize me?”"I will recognize you even after you turn into ashes.”"Fine. An honest man doesn’t resort to underhanded means. Why did you kidnap me?”The young man’s thin lips curled into a blood-thirsty and cold sneer. "Why don’t you give it a guess?"Cole put away his unruly smile and said, "For money?"Then, with an utterly carefree attitude, he said, "The Yorks have plenty of money. Go and ask Spencer for it, but don’t ever short
“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
