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
It was already three in the morning when Baby Robbie returned to Green Plum Town.Jay was sitting on the couch in the living room sipping coffee in a seemingly elegant manner. Despite that, his charming eyes were covered with a trace of worry and it was clear that something was weighing on his mind.The door of the living room made a creak and Baby Robbie was seen tiptoeing inside. After taking just several steps, he was startled when he caught sight of Jay.“You didn’t go to bed yet, Daddy?”Jay eased up his tightly-knitted brows before standing up and pretending to walk upstairs. "I’ll go to bed now.”Baby Robbie was stunned. Daddy had been waiting for him. He was clearly worried about him.“I have something to tell you, Daddy," Baby Robbie said.Jay turned around with a big smile on his mesmerizing face. "Sure."He wanted to know if anything special had happened to Baby Robbie yesterday. Baby Robbie taking the initiative to talk to him was proof of their healthy father-son r
"The child has severe injuries, Angeline. We should let her rest.”Angeline looked at Sis Thirteen with a reluctant gaze. "I need to stay and take care of her...""Argh!" Jay suddenly clutched his stomach and furrowed his brows.Angeline instantly shifted her attention to Jay, asking anxiously, "Is your stomach acting up again, Jaybie?”Jay nodded. "Help me into the house to rest."Hence, Angeline supported Jay outside.Jay had just taken a few steps when he suddenly turned around and ordered Grayson and Finn, "By the way, Grayson, Finn, the two of you will live here from now on. Spring is nearly here and Baby Zetty and Jens have fallen far too behind in their studies. Please stay in Green Plum Town and help them catch up in their studies. I want you to draw up a timetable for me by tonight.”Finn and Grayson exchanged glances at each other. When their eyes met, they could read the implicit meaning of Master Ares’ words from each other’s doubtful eyes. They then replied reverent
“Stay away from her, Angeline," Jay put away his unbridled behavior and warned with a sullen face without warning.Angeline thought for a very long time before realizing what he meant.Jaybie was referring to Sis Thirteen when he said ‘her’.Angeline was extremely confused. "She’s just a child. She can't even protect herself…" She thought that Jaybie was overly anxious about her safety.Before she could finish her sentence, Jay picked up a potted plant on the table next to him. The small seedling looked malnourished and fragile in the small pot.However, Jay said, "A seedling can’t determine if it’s going to grow straight or crooked. It’s up to the person who cares for the seedling to decide.”Angeline stared fixedly at the stem that had not changed its position for several days now yet was obviously curved because the seedling was growing toward the light.Jay put down the pot and brushed Angeline's exquisite nose, saying, "Be a good girl."Angeline gave him an endearing nod.
Baby Zetty pointed at Baby Robbie. "He’s older and is setting a bad example by sleeping in class… Why aren’t you doing anything?”Grayson said, "He has learned everything in Legendary Youth Academy, you haven’t."Baby Zetty looked at Baby Robbie as he snored in his sleep and said in a rather puzzled manner, "Just look at how much of a sleepyhead he is! Who knows if he actually paid any attention in class when he was in Legendary Youth Academy? Why don’t you try and test him?”Finn shook Baby Robbie awake and asked him, "Let’s hear you recite the periodic table backward, shall we?”Baby Robbie looked at Grayson with drowsy eyes.“I can’t remember it anymore.”Grayson and Finn were stunned. "Don't tell us that you attended a fake Legendary Youth Academy, Jens?”Afraid that he would expose his identity, Baby Robbie pretended to look profound and mysterious by saying, “Do you know why Daddy asked you to give us lessons?”Grayson replied, “To make up for your missed lessons.”Baby
Zechariah’s emergency treatment lasted an entire day and night, but he still passed away in bed in the end.Grand Old Master Yorks presided over Zechariah’s funeral. That day, the villagers raised Zechariah’s body and leaned it against a block of wood. They stood around his body chanting prayers with the religious leader. Women clad in plain white clothes danced around Zechariah’s body to bid him farewell.Judy, Zechariah’s daughter, knelt in front of Zechariah in her mourning garment. She was wailing her heart out.Grand Old Master Yorks read the eulogy out loud, "Life may be short but it is resplendent like the flowers in summer. Zechariah has made great contributions to Doomsday. He’s a hero in Doomsday—Mount Pearl’s patron saint. Now, with great reverence, let us bid farewell to our patron saint.“Today, Mount Pearl has lost its patron saint, but fortunately, Zachariah and his wife have given us the clever and bubbly Judy who is not only beautiful but also great at medicine and
Jay grabbed Angeline's hand anxiously and gave her a reassuring stare. He then turned to Judy and said, "Judy, I promised your father to take good care of you, but I didn't promise him anything about marrying you. I, Jay Ares, am a person who takes my promise seriously and will never break it. With that said, I also promised my wife to marry her and her alone for the rest of my life. I’ll take care of you, but I won’t do so by marrying you.”Judy's smile froze on her face. Her unrequited love had turned into intense hatred. "You’re not keeping your promise." She then covered her face and ran away.The villagers all looked at Jay with condemning eyes. “Zechariah has just passed on and you’re already breaking your promise by refusing to marry Saintess Judy. We don’t welcome you here in Doomsday.”Jay was spurned, and his dashing face looked extremely awkward.Angeline squeezed Jay's hand and gave him a reassuring gaze.With Angeline’s comforting gaze, his icy heart was instantly fil
