Jay said, “Give me one reason why I should stay.”“Your mother is here!” Chloe cried aloud.Jay lifted his leg gently and shook off Chloe's hand, saying with a dull expression, “Wherever you go, that’s where Father will be. That’s the love between both of you. But for me, wherever Angeline goes, that’s where home is. That’s what love means to me.”Chloe shed tears of despair and regret. “I was wrong, Jay. I was terribly wrong. Stay and keep me company, please?”"Angeline isn’t in good health to start with, and after being bullied by you today, who knows how terribly her health will deteriorate? I can’t leave her behind,” Jay said.“If that’s the case… I’ll send someone to get her back." Chloe compromised reluctantly.If it was not for the fact that Jay was about to leave her behind, would she even stoop to compromise with Angeline?Jay looked at Chloe's wretched appearance and felt as though his heart had been sliced open.Josephine knew that Jay was a man who valued his family
Like a beam of light, Jay had brought the light of dawn to Yorks Stronghold, but after dark, he retreated without a trace.The once lively Yorks Stronghold had gone back to being silent and dull.Grand Old Master Yorks swayed and staggered on the mountain path, recalling every moment he and Jay shared. The child was cunning and wise and knew how to make him smile.However, he could not enjoy such bliss and warmth anymore.His heart was filled with regrets, but he had only himself to blame.On the other hand, Chloe was crying in Jordan's arms. Up until now, she still could not wrap her head around it and kept on mumbling, “Why is Jay so cruel? How can he abandon his mother?”Jordan had always been accommodating to Chloe. Firstly because of love, and secondly because of guilt. Back then, the Areses had imprisoned Chloe in the underground palace, which was why she contracted a strange disease. She had muscle atrophy and lost her mobility, and because of this guilt, he chose to be ki
Jordan could only sigh.Immediately after Jay set foot in Imperial Capital, he rushed to Angeline’s house in Swallow City.At the sight of Lady Severe and Mr. Severe, Jay asked anxiously, "Did Angeline come home, Mom and Dad?”Lady Severe was stunned. “Angeline is with you, isn’t she?”A hint of uneasiness flashed across Jay’s heart. Angeline did not come home. Where could she have gone?Josephine consoled Jay. “Brother, Angeline may have gone to Imperial Capital first.”Jay nodded, and before he could exchange greetings with the elders from the Severe family, he drove to Imperial Capital in a hurry.He went to Carefree Garden, Grand Asia, and even the newly built Tourmaline Estate… He went everywhere he could possibly think of, yet Angeline was still nowhere to be found.Jay grew extremely uneasy.Had Angeline made up her mind to part ways with him?After what Angeline had gone through this time, her health must have suffered a heavy blow. Thinking about this, Jay grew anxio
Baby Robbie lay on the sofa with his arms folded and said calmly, "You can help us cheat when we have exams!" Jenson was speechless. Jenson rolled his eyes at them and said, "Don't worry, Daddy will not give up until each of you become outstanding students." Baby Robbie and the girls almost fainted. Grand Old Master Ares found out that Jay had returned to Imperial Capital, so for the entire day, he waited by the door for his children and grandchildren to come and see him. However, after waiting for several days, Grand Old Master Ares lost his patience. He took the initiative to call Jay.Grand Old Master Ares questioned unhappily, "Jay, I know you’ve been back to Imperial Capital for a few days now. Why haven’t you visited me? Also, I heard that Baby Robbie is back. Come over with the kids." Jay said in a low voice, "Grandpa, I lost Angeline." Grand Old Master Ares kept silent for a long while. He finally understood why Jay had not visited since he came back. Without
Jay brought the children to Tourmaline Estate to visit Grand Old Master Ares. The estate was especially lively with the gathering of a few of the Ares family branches. Jean was a self-claimed pick-up artist. When Jean saw that Jay was holding onto his phone and texting the entire night, he could not stand it anymore. He snatched Jay's phone, threw it aside, and said, "Brother, is Sister-in-law answering any of your calls? Is she replying to any of your texts?" Jay glared at Jean with an angry expression. How dare this kid try to teach him a lesson?! When Jean saw Jay's expression, he knew he had hit his sore spot. Jean smiled and said, "She’s not answering your calls or returning your text messages, is that right? Let me tell you, there are only two reasons for this."Jay straightened up and listened carefully to what Jean had to say next. Jean said, "The first reason is that your writing is sub-par and your words can't move her." Jay gave a scowl. How dare this kid
Jay's icy expression instantly softened. He nodded and said, "Be safe." The children giggled. After Daddy adopted them, he regarded them as his own daughters and cared about their safety. If they were out in public, the people there should be the ones worried. Finally, it was Baby Robbie and Jenson’s turn to walk up to Grand Old Master Ares. Jenson's face was sullen, but Baby Robbie plunged into the arms of Grand Old Master Ares. He greeted him affectionately, "Great-grandpa." Grand Old Master Ares' tears filled his eyes. "Baby Robbie, I’m so happy that you’re back."When Grand Old Master Ares handed some money to Baby Robbie and Jenson, Baby Robbie took it and kept it like the others. However, Jenson kept his hands in his pants pockets and said coolly, "Great-grandpa, I’m not a child, so I don't need any allowance." Grand Old Master Ares held the money in his hand as he said, "Jens, in Great-grandpa's heart, you’ll always be my baby grandson." Jenson reluctantly too
Grand Old Master Ares shook his head. "I don't know. Maybe your mother wanted access to the research findings, but your grandma wasn’t willing to give it to her." Jay immediately thought of his mother's other child, the child who died of a strange disease. Did his mother look for Grandma Boye in hopes of bringing him back to life? However, Grand Old Master Ares revealed another shocking truth, "I interrogated your mother previously, but she kept saying that it was Boye's fault. She said that Boye is a scheming good-for-nothing and is not as kind as she appears. She also said that she cheated on me..." Monster’s face immediately came to Jay's mind. He thought about the timeline in his mind, then asked, "Was Grandma ever away from home in the years before I was born?""No." Grand Old Master Ares thought about Jay’s question for a while and shook his head. However, his eyes suddenly lit up as he said, "She fell seriously ill and her stomach was swollen for a while. However
Jay said resolutely, "Grandpa, share the findings with our government and let them serve mankind. This is the life purpose of a doctor. I would think that Grandma would want her research findings to be passed down from generation to generation." Grand Old Master Yorks waved his hand and said, "Give me some time to think about it." Jay left. As he came out of Grand Old Master Yorks' room, Jay looked at the restored Tourmaline Estate. The layout and appearance of the building were as per its previous appearance. The lush trees and wide asphalt avenues gave the whole place life. The reconstruction of Tourmaline Estate was led by Angeline herself. Jay’s heart ached when he thought of how much hard work Angeline had put in just to make him happy.He thought to himself, ‘How did I lose such a wonderful woman?’ Jay dragged himself to Fragrant Vessel Court. Fragrant Vessel Court had an antique feel to it as the building retained its original appearance. The only thing that w
“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
