Zayne seemed to have realized something and walked to Josie. “Don’t be angry, Josie. I’ve thought things through and it doesn’t matter if we don’t have children. Instead, I’ll just raise you like my own daughter.”Josephine laughed wildly… and her belly full of anger dissipated.Zayne touched the back of his head and smirked.A woman’s brain was indeed a strange thing. One should never reason with them when they were angry. Using an absurd method to tease them would be the correct option.Josephine took Zayne’s hand and sincerely said, “I know you like children, Zayne. I’ll try my best with the doctor’s treatment. If we’re unable to conceive at the end, let’s go to the orphanage to adopt a child.”Zayne replied candidly, “We’ll go according to your plan.”Time went by calmly in the mountains.With such rare leisure time, Angeline took out some yarn from the bedroom. She said with a smile on her face, “Sis Shirley’s belly is starting to show, so I have to quickly prepare a couple
She knew better than to knit sweaters in front of these two men in the future.Suddenly, they heard an earth-shattering thumping sound coming from the gates of Green Plum Town.Everyone in the living room was caught off guard, and their expressions turned to panic.“What’s happening?” Zayne asked nervously.“I’ll go take a look.” Baby Robbie was still somewhat calm.Baby Robbie jogged all the way to the front. When he opened the door, he saw Judy standing by the door in a panic. She was out of breath when she said, “I need to see Brother Jay.”Afterward, she tried to drill herself through the entrance.Baby Robbie had quick reflexes. His back was leaning against the door frame as he stretched his long leg toward the opposite edge to block Judy’s path. “What’s going on?” Baby Robbie was acting unruly at this moment, but he was still smiling warmly.Judy had no other option but to tell him the truth. She anxiously said, “My father has been poisoned. It’s by no means one of Doom
Judy’s initial impression of Baby Robbie was that he was so young and she had contemptuously looked down on him. Now that she knew how much knowledge Baby Robbie had, she showed admiration for him.“Do you know the solution for this poison?” Judy asked humbly.Baby Robbie shook his head. “The composition of this poison is complex, and it’s difficult to find all the formulas in a short time. Unless the one who poisoned him is found and we’re able to get the antidote, he won’t be able to recover.”Jay walked toward Zechariah and tried to communicate with him. “Uncle Zechariah, can you tell us who poisoned you?”Zechariah stared at him with a pair of bloodshot pupils. The white part of his eyes seemed to be covered with black tree branches. It was a terrifying sight.Perhaps due to his high martial arts skills or Zechariah’s strong willpower, he abruptly started speaking in an unclear manner.“Jay, take care of Judy for me.”Perhaps he knew that his time was coming to an end, so en
Green Plum Town.Angeline stood on the road in front of Green Plum Town, eagerly looking into the distance with an anxious expression.“Why hasn’t your daddy returned, Baby Zetty?”Baby Zetty sighed sorrowfully. “Yeah, it’s getting dark out. Doesn’t Daddy know that we’ll get worried about him?”Angeline was utterly anxious. “He returned late a couple of days ago and I already gave him a small punishment for it. He should’ve learned his lesson already. I wonder if he’s caught up in something since he’s late again today.”Zayne tightened his lips into a fine line. “I don’t think he’s caught up by something important, but more like someone important.”Zayne was relentless when it came to belittling Jay.He deliberately raised Judy’s position in Jay’s heart by several steps.Women were always suspicious beings, so Angeline was immediately enraged upon hearing it. “This is no good. I’m heading out to see what’s keeping him.” Afterward, Angeline dragged herself toward the mountain.
“Uncle Zechariah is saved!” The stronghold’s villagers applauded.Cole and Carson looked at each other, and Carson asked in surprise, “Could it be a genius doctor?”When Zayne supported Angeline to the guest room, Cole looked a little confused when he saw them. “Do you guys have a way to save Uncle Zechariah?”Zayne smiled awkwardly. “No. But if I didn’t say that, there’s no way we could get in.”Carson’s face turned gloomy as he muttered in a low voice, “I want to choke him to death.”Cole whispered, “I agree, but you’ll have to do it behind Angeline’s back.”When Angeline entered the guest room, she did not see Jay nor Baby Robbie. A sense of loss appeared on her face. When she saw Zechariah lying on the couch, her face instantly sank. Angeline was even more frightened and pale.Cole saw the panic across Angeline’s face and knew that she was in poor health, so he did not want her to suffer from shock. Then, he said with a gloomy expression, “Send them out.”Angeline walked to
His falcon gaze scanned the area as his ears listened to the most abnormal noise. Angeline’s safety fiddled with the most nervous chord in Jay’s heart at this moment.Zayne thought about how he and Angeline made a long and challenging journey to look for Jay with much trouble. Meanwhile, Jay was taking a stroll with beauty. He could not contain his anger and said, “Angeline trusted you, and you’re here taking a walk with Judy under the moonlight?”Jay looked at Angeline guiltily, yet he did not make any sudden movements and just quietly stood there.Angeline, who was unclear of the situation, merely thought he was standing still because of his guilty conscience.All of Angeline’s worry turned into resentment within seconds. She was thoroughly enraged.Judy acted like a rooster that had just won a battle and reached out to hold Jay’s hand as she provocatively looked at Angeline.Jay pushed Judy’s hand away and was about to lift his foot to stride toward Angeline.Suddenly, a cold
Angeline might be narrow-minded, but she was not unreasonable. After listening to Jay’s explanation, her anger dissipated immediately. She asked Jay with concern, "Why is the assassin following you, Jaybie?”Jay did not want Angeline to worry about him, so he pretended to look relaxed. He squeezed Angeline's cheeks and smiled. "He injured Uncle Zechariah. I think he’s here to hurt Judy.”Jay then steered Angeline toward tragic cases of familicides, which diminished Angeline’s concerns and worries tremendously.The night was hazy, so the rugged mountain road became difficult to navigate. The road downhill was especially steep and precipitous.Jay bent down and said, "I’ll carry you home, Angeline."Zayne rushed forward, putting all of his weight on Jay. He said with an annoying smile, "I’m also exhausted from having searched for you all day, Big Brother. Why don’t you carry me too?”Jay grabbed his shoulders and performed a beautiful shoulder throw, smashing Zayne to the ground wh
She was trying to remind him to protect himself when his life was at stake.If Jay was gone, then she would not have the will to live anymore either.She wanted Jay to cherish his life.Judy pouted and snorted.Judy refused to believe that Angeline would love Jay so deeply.When they came to a fork, Jay said, "Send Judy home, Zayne."Zayne had been quarreling with Judy the entire way and was eager to get rid of this annoying girl. "Why me?"Jay said confidently, "Because I need to take Angeline home."Zayne whimpered and dropped his head, saying, "I’ll take Angeline home. You can take Judy home."Jay glared at him… Angeline suggested, "Jaybie, we’re not far from Judy's house. We can send her home on the way."Jay accepted Angeline's suggestion.Judy looked extremely abashed. Jay’s aversion to her had sent a substantial blow to her self-esteem.When Judy came home, Cole walked out with a sullen face and reprimanded her, "Your father's life is in danger. Aren’t you worried
“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
