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
There were not many people in this world who could receive gentle treatment from the cold and heartless Jay. In her past life, Angeline Severe had sacrificed herself but still failed to warm his cold heart of steel.Nobody would expect that he could be so gentle and doting with his sons.Rose was in a daze thinking about nonsense when Jay suddenly reminded her coldly. “Make breakfast.”Rose understood that she would never be the one he would be gentle to. It was that way in her last life, and it would be the same in this life.Rose made a dash downstairs.Jay walked into the room and sat on the edge of the bed as he ruffled Jenson’s head, gently inquiring, “Why did you have nightmares again?”Jenson’s gaze darkened. He had dark circles under his eyes, indicating that he did not have a very peaceful sleep. Jenson looked at Jay. Although his mouth quivered slightly, no words came out.Jay gently hugged his son. “Jens, do you have something that’s bothering you?”Jay could not fig
“Uncle, if you don’t like soy milk with youtiao, you can choose not to eat it. Nobody will force you to eat it.” Zetty's soft and cute voice reverberated into Jay’s ear, which made him feel that life had become meaningless.This young child was always at odds with him.Jay frowned as he looked at Baby Zetty, “Didn’t your Mommy teach you that you shouldn’t talk when you eat?”Who would expect that Zetty would raise her head high and fight back. “Uncle, then why are you talking non-stop?”Jay was rendered speechless.Rose could not help but gently pat Zetty’s head. Her action was obvious to all that she was giving Zetty encouragement.Jay’s arrow-like sharp gaze shot at Rose.The smile in Rose’s face froze, and she immediately buried her head low as she chewed on the youtiao.After breakfast, Jay was not in a hurry to leave for work. He called Rose over. His tone of voice showed that he was was not keen on having a discussion. He just wanted to overbearingly inform her that he ha
Jay had met people from different walks of life. The kind of people he met the most were those so poor that they owned nothing, yet they were still so full of themselves. When the cruel reality left them with a few slaps on their faces, they would turn from being just poor on the outside to being poor even mentally and spiritually.Rose Loyle had been defined by Jay within his subjective world that she was that kind of person.Jay did not give further thoughts about Rose’s request to loan money from him. “Wait till the day you can afford it before you discuss your responsibilities with me.”Rose bit her lip. Jay looked down on her and would not believe that she was capable of paying him back.Right now, she had a more urgent problem. Baby Robbie and Jenson’s schooling issue had been settled. However, Zetty had no qualifications to enter the affiliated kindergarten of Horizon Colors.The affiliated kindergarten of Horizon Colors was mainly set up to cater to the property owners in
“Mommy, he only brought Jenson and Baby Robbie out to play and left me at home.” Zetty looked sideways at her mommy. The disappointment in her eyes was not dismissible.“Zetty, do you want to go out to play? Shall I bring you out?” Rose walked over and sat next to Zetty.Zetty looked at the beautiful big house. She suddenly felt sad and sighed. “Mommy, I don’t like it here.”Rose was stunned.The gap between Zetty and Jay was rapidly increasing. If it was left to progress on its own, it would probably expand as wide and deep as a gorge, never being able to heal.“Zetty, do you want to acknowledge yourself to Daddy?” Rose nervously asked.She had been mulling over this question lately. In the past, she intended to selfishly keep both children to herself and never be separated from them. However, things had not been going as planned. She even failed to hide Baby Robbie, allowing Baby Robbie and Jay to acknowledge each other.Later, she decided to hide Zetty from him. At least with
