Jay hugged her tightly. His voice sounded hoarse when he said, “I can’t risk losing you, Angeline.”Angeline stroked his thick flowing hair and said softly, “To be honest, I don’t hate her anymore.”When Angeline saw Jay’s notebook and felt Jay’s deep love for her, she discovered that such a profound love could break all the cold obstacles in the world.Chloe’s hatred looked much more insignificant when she had Jay’s love.“It doesn’t matter how many heinous things she has done to me, I’ll still have to thank her for one thing. I have to be grateful that she gave birth to you because you’re the greatest gift I’ve ever had.”Jay held onto Angeline tightly. He had always known that Angeline was kind-hearted and would never hold a grudge. He should be protecting Angeline well since she had this nature. “Angeline, although you and I have been married for so many years, we’ve never gone on our honeymoon. Why don’t we stay here a while longer? Let’s not go back in such a hurry, okay?”
Angeline looked at the various fitness equipment stationed on the ground and felt like weeping.Jay was no longer as imposing and softly coaxed her, saying, “Don’t be afraid. Let’s start with the simplest exercise.”Angeline pitifully pleaded with him, “I don’t have the energy.”Jay picked her up and stood on one of the airwalk trainers. He held onto her small hands with his. “I’ll protect you so you won’t fall. It’s only your first day today. You’ll only need to do it for a few minutes.”Was his requirement that low?Only then did Angeline feel more relieved and slowly began to move. Angeline got off the fitness equipment about 40 minutes later.Jay was delighted as he patted her head. “You did an amazing job.”Angeline was in between laughter and tears. Was this considered remarkable to him?That day, Angeline’s consciousness was clear and she had active thinking. Jay felt utterly happy. Angeline began to be more confused again around evening time, and she suffered a brief
He was afraid that the tragedy that happened between his mother and Angeline would repeat itself.However, he was not aware that there were such things as grandparents who loved their grandchildren more.Boye seemed to have noticed Jay’s concern and took the initiative to dispel his doubts. “JJ, Angeline already knows my identity. She was the one who told me who you were.”Jay was dumbfounded.There was a blissful flower blooming in his heart. It was as if Angeline knew him better than himself. “Is that so? Then, did she tell you about those tragedies that indirectly harmed her… because of you?” Jay’s tone was not warm. On the contrary, it sounded rather cold.Boye’s enthusiastic smile turned lonesome and sorrowful in an instant. She said, “May Grandma sit down and have a talk with you?”“Please do.” Jay’s relationship with Boye seemed exceptionally courteous. Boye sat on the chair, and Jay proceeded to pour a cup of tea for her. Boye took a sip of her tea before sighing. “An
When Boye left Jay’s courtyard, her expression was still a little confused. When she got home, her husband asked, “Was it a pleasant conversation with your grandson?”Boye nodded and shook her head at the same time.The grandpa placed his work down in surprise. He came closer to Boye and asked with concern, “Does the child hate you?”Boye said in bewilderment, “He didn’t say that. It’s just that his attitude toward me was not really enthusiastic.”Boye suddenly chuckled out loud. “For so many years, everyone regarded Boye as a guest of honor and did all kinds of things to please me. He’s the only one who rejected the benefits I offered to give him.”The grandpa was a little surprised. “Were you planning on handing your research results to him?”Boye sighed. “He doesn’t seem to want them.”The grandpa asked suspiciously, “He truly doesn’t want them?”Boye replied, “He does. But he wants me to contribute his share to the country.”The grandpa was dumbfounded. “He’s truly a perso
This was simply the greatest news for the Ares children who had been making up for their studies for a few months now.“Hear ye, hear ye! Today’s the last day of our make-up lessons this semester. Tomorrow is the first day of summer vacation,” Baby Zetty announced with a megaphone speaker in her hand. “Sisters, what have you all planned for the two months of summer vacation?”Baby Robbie lay on the table lazily. He said with drowsy eyes, “I have a hunch that my dear brother-in-law won’t let us off for vacation so easily.”Baby Zetty threw the speaker in her hand and scolded Baby Robbie bashfully, “Who are you calling your brother-in-law? Tell me, who is it? I’m not even in a relationship just yet.”Baby Robbie stretched his hands, nimbly catching the speaker. He proceeded to tease Baby Zetty, saying, “You’re blindly confessing right now. You’re not the only sister around here, so how do you know that I was talking about you? Oh, I see. So, you do have someone in mind, then? Tell me
“We want our summer vacation. Please give us back our vacation!” the children protested.Grayson threw the test papers in his hand onto the table and cleared his throat. “These are your scores for the make-up lessons. The lowest score is 11, and the highest is 59. With such marks, even summer vacation won’t want you guys to be a part of it.”The children started giggling happily.Grayson continued, “You lot will enter Imperial Domain Experimental Middle School next semester and study in a class with other students. The bottom 12 positions in the class will probably belong to you guys. Aren’t you embarrassed?”“Why should we be embarrassed? There’s a bible saying that goes, ‘If not me, then who?’ Someone has to be at the bottom in every class, so if it’s not us, it’ll be someone else anyway,” said Baby Robbie.Grayson felt utterly dispirited. “Are your skins as thick as melon peels?”The children shook their heads.“Mine’s as thick as a watermelon peel.”“Mine’s pumpkin.”“Mine
Baby Robbie felt that there was some incomprehensible truth in Jenson’s nonsense. “What on earth were you up to?”Jenson said, “I’ve formally taken over Grand Asia and the responsibility of being the guardian of everyone here.”Baby Robbie felt his voice tremble uncontrollably. “Where are Daddy and Mommy?”It was like this every single time. Whenever something happened to Mommy and Daddy, Jenson would always use his most keen observation skills to detect specific trends and take over while he was kept in the dark. “Mommy is sick, so Daddy took her away for some relaxation time,” Jenson said in a light tone. “What kind of sickness?” Baby Robbie clenched his fists. Jenson was silent. “Did her anxiety disorder get worse?” Baby Zetty asked. His intuitions told Baby Robbie that Daddy would not have taken Mommy away if it was purely her anxiety disorder.Jenson looked at the sisters from the military intelligence division. Not wanting them to think that they had been abandoned,
“Bad news, Grand Old Master, Young Master Robbie and the ladies adopted by Master Ares have stormed into Fragrant Vessel Court aggressively.”Grand Old Master Ares was so shocked that he placed the teacup in his hand on the table and said, “Push me over there. Hurry.”Fragrant Vessel Court. Chloe, Sandra, and Judy were sitting by the courtyard as they chatted. Judy was very at a loss about her future, and her mood was utterly gloomy. She complained to Chloe, “Aunt Chloe, I think Brother Jay is unable to get rid of Angeline in this lifetime. Could it be that our relationship is hopeless now?”On Chloe’s aged face, her wrinkles seemed to have deepened by a whole lot now. She sighed in a lonesome manner. “You still have a little hope as long as Jay and Angeline are still in Imperial Capital. Even if Jay and Angeline don’t divorce, you can stay as a little mistress behind Jay. However, this is too degrading for you.”After so many obstacles and blows, Chloe had learned to compromise.
“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
