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
“Are you not afraid of me getting drunk and fooling around after drinking….”“I’m not. You’re a germaphobe, and even when you stayed under the same roof as Marilyn for so many years, you didn’t mess around then. I have faith in you.”Jay, “...”It seemed like he had given her too strong a sense of security.“Angeline, come over here and let me cuddle you.” Since Angeline could not grasp what he was trying to point out, he should express his needs straightforwardly. “Give me a second. I’m almost done with Jac’s nest. It’ll have a home by tonight.”Jay suddenly felt that he was lacking love.At this moment, someone from Fragrant Vessel Court came by.“Young Master Jay, Eldest Madam has invited you to have dinner with her tonight.”Grand Old Master Ares had five sons, and Jordan was the eldest. Hence, his wife was honored with the title ‘Eldest Madam’ by the servants. Before Jordan and his wife returned, Jack and his wife were the eldest in the household. They were honored with
“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
