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
Jay looked at the doll inside his hand with a sullen face. Then, he glanced at the little bun’s room. After Zetty entered the room, she slammed the door loudly which thundered through the whole house. It became obvious to all that she was in an extremely foul mood.Jay felt that the little bun’s temper was huge and weird. He was under the impression that she was born that way and that it had nothing to do with him.His mood felt better with his self-comfort.Inside the bedroom, Zetty hid under the blanket and quietly shed tears. Rose watched the little human who was feeling hopelessly sad and felt that she could no longer ignore Zetty’s psychological health just because she wanted to keep Zetty to herself.“Baby Zetty, you want him to bring you out as well?” Rose sat next to Baby Zetty, her voice gentle and soothing.Zetty raised her damp face from all the tears and nodded. Her soft and cute voice was filled with hurt and doubt. “Mommy, why doesn’t Uncle like me?”Rose thought ab
Rose had a stomach filled with anger that could not be digested, nor could it be released. The three children were innocently looking at her, thus she had no choice but to take in all that bitter anger. She gave Jay a huge smile. “Sir Ares, you’re right.”The only reason why Jay looked down on her was just that she was poor. Rose secretly swore that she was going to change the situation. She wanted to change her position in his heart where she was now categorized at the lowest rung on the social pyramid.The meal went on awkwardly.When dinner ended, Rose cleared the kitchen and returned to her room. She opened her email to see if there were any replies from the companies she had submitted her resumé to.Perhaps because it had not been too long since she emailed them, which was why not many companies replied to her. However, one email caught her attention.The reply read, “I have seen your resumé, but I have some reservations about the level of your hacking skills. If you can pass
Since Eminent Honor was desperate to hire her, perhaps she could try to negotiate and get an advance for her salary? If both sides could come to an agreement, then her urgent problem would be solved.‘To be honest, Eminent Honor is not my first choice. However, I’m in urgent need of money. If Eminent Honor can give me two years' salary in advance, I’m willing to work for your company.’ Rose hesitated for a long time before she clenched her teeth and clicked on the send button.The other party did not even hesitate and immediately replied with, ‘No problem.’Next, they needed to discuss the clause for the employment contract, the working hours, and others.Rose considered that she needed to take care of three young children. She suggested that she work from home where she would hand her work at a pre-agreed time to the company.As for Zayne, he badly wanted to keep Rose, thus he agreed to all of her conditions.He even went to the extent of transferring Rose her salary for two yea
