Angeline’s intelligent gaze swept across several women’s faces, and she noticed that their eyes were full of unconcealed sneers. She refused to be looked down upon by them, so she pretended to be disdainful and said, “These jewelry are fancy-looking, but the material isn’t very good. I can’t wear such cheap things once I return to Imperial Capital.”Whatever Angeline disliked, and it did not matter how good the thing was, Jay would not bat another eyelid toward it. He looked away from the silver platter as his mellow voice rang out sweetly, “Uncle, do you have any other better jewelry?”Spencer was slightly stunned. Jay was a magnificent man, but he was obsessed with these materialistic things. It made him seem like he was not up to his own standard. Spencer’s thoughts were untimely uttered out loud by his favorite little mistress instead. “I heard rumors that Master Ares is the richest man in Imperial Capital. If that’s the case, why can’t Master Ares afford this cheap jewelry on
Jay pursed his lips into a thin line.Spencer was playing dumb, so if Jay were to give him a strong dose of medicine, how would he react?“Congratulations, Uncle, for your two happy occasions.”Spencer only heard that Shirley was pregnant from Carson. He could not think of any other occasions that would be deemed joyful.“What do you mean two happy occasions?”“The first one is the marriage between my cousin and Sis Shirley, of course.” Jay paused for no reason.Spencer was stunned.In his opinion, Cole marrying the weak Shirley Severe who was from a humble background was not a happy event.Spencer waited for Jay to announce the second joyous news as he wanted to acknowledge only the second happy occasion…However, Jay said nothing else afterward.Spencer asked him curiously, “What’s the second joyful news?”Jay replied, “The second one comes after the first, so if my dearest uncle would like to hear the second joyful occasion, then you must first agree in letting our sister
Angeline’s clear eyes stared at Spencer earnestly, as if she was a good student reciting her textbook to a teacher. She was fluent, and her words contained nothing but the truth. She never missed a beat in telling the story of how Sis Shirley had sacrificed herself to save so many in all these years. She spoke of how hardworking, selfless, and dedicated Sis Shirley had been.After the long-winded speech, Spencer was somewhat moved by everything. His face that had always been calm and composed gradually piled up into surprise and astonishment. He finally ended with a hard-to-believe gasp.“Is everything you’re telling the truth?”Angeline nodded solemnly. “Uncle, my big sister saving my brother and getting married to my brother is the truth. The way she stepped down so that my brother and Josephine could end up together is also the truth. The Severe family accepted her as our own because we’re grateful for all of her kindness.”Spencer was exceptionally stunned. “This woman has noth
Baby Robbie was slightly in a daze…A helpless expression appeared on his little face. “Sigh.”Very soon, Jenson and Baby Robbie came to the door of Grand Old Master’s villa. The guard at the gates hurriedly reported the good news to the old man, “Grand Old Master, the Ares family’s young masters are here to visit.”The grand old master was delighted and quickly placed the teacup in his hand on the table. Then, he hurriedly walked outside.“Haha, Jens, Robbie, which wind brought my two little great-grandchildren here, hmm? Come, come, come on in. Great-grandpa will give you some treats.”Jenson and Baby Robbie entered the house. As soon as they sat down, Grand Old Master Yorks requested all kinds of delicious snacks in his collection to be brought out. Soon, the wide mahogany tea table was densely packed with treats. It was dazzling to the eyes. Baby Robbie had always been a polite child, so he quickly thanked his great-grandfather. “Thank you, Grand Old Master.”The grand old
"Here at Doomsday, we have 8,000 Army of the Dead, which explains why the land is barren wherever we go. There are also 5,000 Tiger Army, all of whom are leaders who are not only equipped with extraordinary fighting skills but also superb intelligence..." Grand Old Master Yorks stopped speaking halfway.“You’re only a major general, so you’re not qualified to lead Doomsday's elite force."Baby Robbie breathed a sigh of relief in secret. If Jenson led Doomsday's elite force to fight against the military intelligence division, both sides might end up with huge losses and countless casualties.Jenson's face that was like an ice sculpture displayed traces of stubbornness. "What should I do to be qualified enough to lead them?"Baby Robbie looked at Jenson in astonishment. From what he could remember, Jenson had always been a kid who hated fighting. He would often say that if you could bully others with your brain, then try your best not to use force.Jenson had severe obsessive-compul
Jenson stood in place, wondering how he was going to make Baby Robbie believe that Monster was not as innocent as he thought.Jenson believed that it was only by completely getting rid of the bewitchment that the military intelligence division had on Baby Robbie would he be willing to go home with them."Tell me honestly, then. How did you survive in the military intelligence division in the past four years?" A bold idea was brewing in Jenson's mind. Maybe he should visit the military intelligence division and find proof of Monster’s criminal evidence himself.In the face of irrefutable evidence, Baby Robbie would stop being so persistent and pick up the pieces and go home. When that happened, they would be able to live together happily as a family again.In order to convince Jenson of his and the military intelligence division’s innocence, Baby Robbie decided not to hide it anymore.As they sat on the stone bench in the bamboo forest, Baby Robbie said to Jenson, "When I first arr
When Baby Robbie finished speaking, he cast a sideways glance at Jenson who was daydreaming and asked, "What are you thinking about, Jens? You look so lost in your thoughts.”Jenson recollected his thoughts and concealed the scheming gaze hidden in his dark eyes. "I was just wondering if the agents of the military intelligence division have contributed to your hooliganism."Baby Robbie grumbled, "How am I a hooligan?”Jenson stared at him with displeasure and said, "Both your behavior and words are frivolous.”Baby Robbie debated, "Am I frivolous? How am I frivolous?" Even if he was frivolous, he still looked very much like a gentleman, okay!Jenson leaned forward and reminded Baby Robbie. "You leaned in to me naked that day, isn't that frivolous? A man who’s seven feet tall like you called out to me using such a pampered and flirtatious voice, isn't that frivolous?"Facts spoke louder than words.Baby Robbie shrugged and stammered, "I was forced to do that in order to conceal m
Jenson stared speechlessly at Baby Robbie. "What did I do to you?""You said that I have no principles."Jenson said stiffly, "You don’t have principles."Thinking that this was a big deal at first, Angeline did not expect the children to be arguing because of a matter that was as small as the point of a needle.Angeline stood dumbfoundedly on the same spot, and for a while, she did not know how to mediate the conflict between her children.Jay straightened his spine and said, "Let’s hear it, then. In what sort of way does he have no principles?”Jenson said, "He pretended to be gay last time in order to hide his identity."Baby Robbie said, "That’s called a white lie.""It's not right to lie." Jenson intensified the conflict deliberately.Baby Robbie was speechless. In the end, he glanced at Mommy and had a sudden clever idea. "Ask Mommy if she has lied to anyone before. Perhaps you were even born from a lie yourself."Angeline was unjustly attacked while just being present.
