Each time Jenson was startled, he would look exhausted and weak. Now, he was lying on Jay’s shoulders. His eyes were half-opened, and he looked lifeless as well as sleepy.Rose looked at Jens, but Jay was looking at Rose.She was dressed in a cotton home attire that looked like her pajamas. Her pajamas had long sleeves and long pants. The outer layer was a small jacket. With just one look, he could tell that she had rushed over to see Jenson and did not have the time to dress up.Jay was rather surprised. After all, in his memory, every woman who approached him had spent time and effort to make themselves look good. They would pay attention to even the minute details like their nails. “Come in.” His expression remained cold and expressionless. However, his heart had a peculiar ripple going on.“Is Jens alright?” Rose asked worriedly.Jay gently ruffled Baby Robbie’s head and casually answered Rose, “The child suffered a little scare.”Rose looked at Jenson who had fallen asleep
Rose looked up and stared at him. ‘Why is this fella talking to me so kindly? Is he scheming something?’”Are you willing to come over and be... a nanny?“ he asked.Rose was speechless.‘Do I look like a nanny?’She was tempted to reject the offer immediately, but when she recalled Jenson‘s weak and tired appearance... When she thought about each time Baby Robbie and Zetty asked when they could see Daddy again...Rose’s prideful heart crumbled once again.If it was in the past, Jay would conceitedly think that Rose would be more than happy to accept his request.After all, she would receive a high salary for being a nanny at the Ares family.However, now that Jay knew that Rose was a skilled hacker and that she had the ambition to build her business empire, Jay was not fully confident that she would accept her offer.Rose thought about it for a moment and looked up at Jay, speaking with full resolute, “If you‘re seriously thinking about the sake of the children, then you shoul
‘Cohabitating?’Jay’s brows frowned slightly as he looked at the confident Rose.He disliked women who acted meek and lowly in front of him. However, Rose who was arrogant to the point where she viewed him as insignificant gave him a stronger sense of displeasure.“I think you should find out the market price for any mansion in Horizon Colors. That way, you won’t bring up such an absurd and impossible suggestion.” Jay’s tone was filled with an arrogance that brought others down.Rose bit her lips. ‘F*ck you. Are you mocking me for being poor?’“Sir Ares, name your price.” Rose’s biggest trait was being stubborn and refusing to give up until the last second.Jay smirked as he lifted one finger. His finger was slim, long, and fair. His joints were well-shaped, looking so sexy and alluring.Rose’s gaze had been drawn by his finger, and for a moment, she was in a daze.She recalled her childhood days when he had held her hand and taught her how to type on the keyboard.It was hard
Zetty did not have her own room, thus she could only share a room with Mommy.When she saw that Baby Robbie had a large and beautiful room, she could not hide her sadness and whispered to her mommy, “Why won‘t Daddy give me a pretty room as well?”Rose did not know how to answer that.That night, Zetty’s mood was rather low.Rose could only hug Zetty and patiently comfort her. “Zetty, you‘re a girl. That’s why you can stay with Mommy until you‘re a big girl. But Baby Robbie is a boy, and he is gradually growing up. There’s a difference between boys and girls. That’s why he has to stay in a different room from us. Do you understand?”Zetty finally felt better.Their new room may be the shabbiest within the mansion, but it was still a luxury for the mother and daughter.It may be just a room, but it was a large one. The only downside to the room was that the interior design was overly elegant. Silver-grey vertical striped wallpaper was not the kind of room that a dreamy little gir
Rose brought out her pizza, and the children all squealed in delight. “Wow!”Subsequently, Jenson abandoned his cutleries to join Baby Robbie and Zetty as they surrounded their Mommy.Jay’s back was toward the kitchen, so he did not see Rose’s pizza. He frowned and wondered to himself, ‘It’s just a pizza. Hasn’t Jenson had plenty of expensive pizza? Why is he so enthusiastic toward Rose’s pizza?’Rose came over and placed the pizza on the dining table. The children immediately surrounded her. Jay saw the specially made pizza and was stunned.The pizza was like a map, separated by a blue river. On one side was a dark zombie kingdom while the other side was Ultraman’s space universe.This pizza was special. However, what made Jay flabbergasted was the details of the handcraft. They truly displayed Rose’s capabilities in art.Rose divided the pizza into four slices using a knife and gave each child one slice. Only Jay did not get any slice.Jenson and Baby Robbie looked at the plat
Jay looked at that arrogant smug and thought to himself, ‘Since you don’t want to be a maid, I have my ways to make you unconsciously turn into the Ares family’s maid.’“Next time, I will eat with the children. I’ll eat whatever you make and will pay you some money for it. How does 20,000 a month sound like? You can still enjoy your regular weekends and holidays. What do you think?” Jay set out a trap for his prey.Rose thought about it. ‘I have to make food for the kids every day, anyway. It doesn’t seem like a hassle to make an extra portion for him either, and I can earn an extra 20,000. Why not?’“Deal.” Rose happily took Jay’s plate away.A smug success was seen under Jay’s eyes.At night, Jay went to his study to handle a document. When he came out, he found that Jenson and Baby Robbie were not in their rooms.He looked at his wristwatch to see that it was already their bedtime.Jay heard a clear voice coming from Rose’s room. The expression on his handsome face darkened.
Grayson informed, “President, we‘ve checked through all information regarding Rose Loyle. However, we can’t find any information about her from seven years ago until today. Don’t you think something funny is going on?”Jay’s eagle-like pupils became sharp as doubt shrouded his cold peach-shaped eyes.In this current society where the internet was so advanced, it was unusual for someone’s archives to go missing. Furthermore, what was missing from Rose’s archives was not from a long time ago when the internet was still underdeveloped. It was from recent years! This would probe anyone’s suspicion.“Continue investigating!” Jay ordered.“Noted, President.”Jay settled his work before going to bed.When he closed his eyes, his mind inexplicably surfaced Rose’s voice as she recited ‘To Oak Tree’. The circumflex accent brought a healing warmth which made him unable to stop himself from thinking about Angeline.Other than the difference in voice, Angeline and Rose’s tone when reciting t
Jay ruffled his son’s head but ignored Zetty’s presence. He did not notice that his ignorance was bringing upon a bigger animosity from Zetty.Jay went upstairs and knocked on Rose’s room door. Rose’s sleepy eyes were met with an angry Jay. “Sir Ares, what’s the matter?”“Breakfast,” Jay squeezed out the two syllables through gritted teeth.Rose was immediately wide awake. “Ah, I’m sorry. I’ll get to it right away.”However, she was still dressed in her cotton, short-sleeved, pajama dress. She wanted to get changed and head out of the room, but Jay remained at the door as if he had no intention of leaving.Jay looked at the Pikachu cartoon picture on her pajamas. There was a teasing look in his gaze.Rose covered the childish picture on her chest and blushed. “Stop looking!”Jay coldly said, “Don’t worry. Even if you stood naked in front of me, I won’t have any interest in your flat figure.”Rose widened her eyes. ‘I have a flat figure? How absurd. My body measurements are the
“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
