Jay was sandwiched between his mother and wife just like sandwich cookies. How could he possibly lead a peaceful life this way?Chloe cried out and complained, “It’s because you indulged her that she has become so spoiled and arrogant. She doesn’t respect me as her mother-in-law and even slapped me in public.”“Why did she slap you?" Jay guided his mother patiently and systematically, deciding to have a peaceful talk with her so she would realize her mistakes.“I just called her a jinx for bringing misfortune to her husband." Chloe did not think she was wrong at all.Grand Old Master Yorks flew into a rage. "Chloe Yorks, you said that she brought misfortune to her husband, but that husband is your precious son Jay, isn’t it? You’re cursing Jay then, aren’t you? Why don’t you get it?Chloe said anxiously, “I didn't mean to curse Jay. I just think that Jay will never have a peaceful life as long as she’s with him. I feel sorry for Jay, that’s all.”Jay said calmly, "Don't blame Ang
Jay could not say no to his mother's pleas, so he reluctantly agreed.At night, Jay sat on the sofa and chatted with Chloe.Angeline texted Jay. [Jaybie, what time are you coming home?] When Jay saw Angeline’s text, he could imagine how excited Angeline was. He felt very guilty and replied to her: [Baby, I can't come back today. My mother tried her best to get me to stay, and I don’t feel great saying no to her. Get some rest, don't wait up for me.] Angeline’s expression turned sad when she saw his message. The reason why Jay was not coming home was not that Chloe Yorks was in an unstable condition, but it was that Chloe did not want him to go home. She replied to Jay: [In that case, get some rest. Goodnight.] When Jay saw that seemingly neutral text from Angeline, his mood turned gloomy.Jay had not seen Angeline for the entire day. He had been occupied with taking care of his mother who received an infusion earlier that day. Once he was done with that, Chloe k
Jay glanced at Judy and said, "Just leave it somewhere." He did not want to come into contact with items that other women had touched. Judy frowned and put the glass of water back to where it was. Chloe reached out her hand to Jay weakly. "JJ, please help me get up." Jay walked over and helped Chloe up. "I'm thirsty. Can I have some water?" Judy went over with the spiked water. "Jay, can you please take a sip for me and let me know if it’s too hot?" Jay took a small sip. "It’s alright." Chloe took the glass of water but did not drink it. Instead, she told Jay, "By the way, JJ, I feel so much better today. Can you go talk to the doctor and see if we can make a change to today’s treatment plan?" Jay stood up and said, "Okay." When he left, Jay grabbed his phone. As he walked out of the ward, Jay could not wait to call Angeline. Angeline answered the call almost immediately. She said in a lazy but coquettish voice, "Jay, I've been waiting for such a
On the way back to Tourmaline Estate, Chloe repeatedly told Jay, "JJ, I’ve thought about it. As long as you and Angeline are happy, I won’t disrupt your relationship. I think that it’s best that she and I don’t meet. We can then all live in peace. Please let her know on my behalf that she can disregard our mother-in-law and daughter-in-law relationship. We won’t meet each other if possible." She was afraid that Angeline would find out about her scheme if they met. Jay also knew that the conflict between the both of them was on the extreme side, and this was a good way to keep the peace. As such, he agreed to Chloe’s request. After returning to Tourmaline Estate, Jay sent Chloe off to Fragrant Vessel Court. Chloe asked him to stay for dinner. Jay was eager to head back to Angeline, so he refused. "Mom, I haven't had dinner with Angeline for a few days now. I won't stay for dinner with you tonight." Judy walked up to Jay and said with a smile, "Jaybie, please stay." The
She set her eyes on Jay's slender but chiseled body. That noble and elegant temperament of his made him look great in all styles of clothes. She stared at his charming face and mysterious eyes while thinking to herself, ‘How could anyone give up on such a man?’ "Jaybie, I must be with you," Judy said. Château de Selene. Jay tiptoed into the house and went to the bathroom to wash his face. He was finally able to suppress the guilt he was feeling. After he came out of the shower, Jay lay down next to Angeline gently. Initially, he did not want to disturb her sleep. However, after longing for her for a few days, he was unable to hold himself back. He gently turned sideways and held her in his arms. Angeline opened her eyes and looked at him bitterly. Jay was surprised. "You’re awake?" He felt joy from the bottom of his heart. He could talk to her about everything that had happened. He hugged her tightly and said, "Angeline, I miss you." Angeline sounded li
Jay looked at Angeline, who was blushing, then pinched her cheeks endearingly. He smiled and said, "Remember when we were kids? You got drunk, climbed onto trees to grab birds, and even secretly trimmed grandpa's beard...This is nothing compared to those." Angeline kept quiet. Her childhood memories in Tourmaline Estate flowed through her mind. When she was a child, she was a top student who was great in her academics and had a good character. However, she was close with Zayne since they were young and eventually, Zayne, the class clown, changed her for the worse. All of Angeline's favorite activities then became very male-centric. It was rare for her to sit down quietly like a lady. If she had not met Jay, she would not have become a lady. "Let's go." Jay dragged Angeline to the outdoor dining area in Château de Selene. Grand Old Master Ares was sitting in a wheelchair. When he saw Jay and Angeline walking over hand in hand, his wrinkled but elegant face fl
Grand Old Master Ares was not planning on letting her off easily either. After all, since Jay was displaying a keen interest in the topic, Grand Old Master Ares merely wanted to make his grandson happy. He simply wanted to share all the foolish things Angeline had done and said in pursuit of Jay.“Which one are you referring to?” Jay asked.Angeline covered his mouth. “Don’t ask.”Jay was filled with laughter. Grand Old Master Ares said, “Angeline, you swore an oath to me. Didn’t you say you’d give birth to a row of sons for Jay so they’d make up an entire football team?”Of course, Angeline remembered this.At the time, some tool sputtered nonsense about her being barren due to her petite figure. She furiously rushed in and swore an oath to Grand Old Master Ares, saying, “Who told you that a skinny person wouldn’t be able to give birth to children? I’ll give birth to a platoon of sons for Jaybie so that they can play football or basketball with Jaybie… If I can’t do it, Jaybie
“Angeline, did you know that from the first moment I saw you, I knew I couldn’t let go of you in my entire lifetime. It was because you had created ripples in my tranquil heart…” Jay could always recall the first time he saw Angeline. Her delicate and immaculate elf-like face had utterly moved his heart.Angeline listened to Jay’s words of love and suddenly felt an itching sensation coming from her ankle. She looked down and saw a rabbit gently rubbing itself on her feet. “I believe in having a sixth sense. And I believe that the way we ended up together was a gift bestowed to us by the heavens. So it doesn’t matter how often we were separated. I’ve never been discouraged because I firmly believed that you’d eventually make your way back to me,” Jay murmured emotionally. However, Angeline was not responding to him. Jay proceeded to raise his head in astonishment. Then he saw that she was passionately playing with a palm-sized rabbit.She stretched her legs out and the rabbit cont
