Grand Old Master Ares could not help but chuckle. “JJ, you’ve truly outdone yourself in loving this girl. She wants a whole essay, 1,000 words too! But seeing how you’re talented with words, I don’t see it being challenging for you. I think she’s finding a way to get you out of this situation.”Grand Old Master Ares then took Jay to the backyard. Jay sat on the sofa, looking depressed and pensive.Every time he went over to Fragrant Vessel Court, he was obviously determined to quickly return home. However, why did he always stay there for a long time for no good reason?Perhaps Angeline had not been doing very well these few days and was getting rather lonely. Was that the reason she wanted to adopt that stray rabbit?Grand Old Master Ares ordered his servants, “Prepare a calligraphy set for Young Master Jay.”The servant quickly brought a calligraphy pen, ink, and paper over.Jay looked at the grand old master speechlessly. “Isn’t a ballpoint pen enough?”He wanted to quickly
Jay could feel Angeline’s emotional grief and quickly turned on the lights. He was out of his wits as he held Angeline’s face.“Are you jealous of Judy, Angeline?” he asked.Fortunately, Grandpa had mentioned it earlier so that he could slightly retrace the source of Angeline’s fiery temper.Since Judy was interested in him, Angeline would perhaps misunderstand if he stayed in Fragrant Vessel Court for too long. “How could I not be jealous?” Angeline said, enraged. Jay felt extremely wronged. “Angeline, do you have to be jealous of her? Aren’t you well aware of where she’s placed in my heart by now?”Angeline pushed him away and said furiously, “I used to be well aware of how you treated her. But it seems like I’ve been out of the loop nowadays.”“Angeline, stop trying to stir up trouble unreasonably, okay? It’s late now. Let’s get some sleep,” Jay said tiredly.Angeline looked at Jay sorrowfully. After witnessing him and Judy being affectionate toward one another, he had the
Chloe suddenly thought of an idea and said to the servant from Château de Selene, “Hurry back and tell JJ that today is his brother, Ron’s, death anniversary. Tell him that I miss his brother and is currently in a foul mood. He’ll know to come and comfort me.”“Yes.” The servant left shortly after.Château de Selene.When Jay woke up and found that Angeline had disappeared, he thought about Angeline’s little spat with him last night. He got up in a panic and hurriedly went downstairs.“Angeline.” His voice was filled with anxiety.The maid told him, “Young Master Jay, Madam has already had her breakfast and went to take the rabbit out for a walk outside.”Jay was stunned in place.Did she not wait for him to have their breakfast together?Angeline was clearly still angry with him.Jay could no longer care about eating his breakfast and hurriedly went outside.In the courtyard, Angeline kept herself busy by feeding the rabbit some carrots. Although her expression appeared calm
He could feel his blood surging up.“Are you trying to leave me?” Jay said in disbelief. Then, there was a hysterical roar. “Why are you trying to make such a big fuss out of a minor issue?”Angeline cried out sorrowfully, “You were rubbing Judy’s head so affectionately right in front of me, and you even held her hand! Why are you not taking this seriously? Fine, I’ll find myself a random man tomorrow. I’ll let him touch my head right in front of you, and I’ll even hold his hand too... Let’s see if you’ll take it seriously if I do the same to you.”Angeline cried and ran away.Jay’s face turned ashen, and his stalwart body started trembling.“Was I possessed? How could I have done such a wretched thing?”Jay turned around to chase after Angeline.Angeline returned to the house and went straight to the bedroom.This time, she was determined to leave Jay.She took out all of her daily necessities and threw them out as if she wanted to erase herself from Jay’s world completely.
Jay would never have thought that he was capable of doing such absolutely disgraceful actions yesterday evening. Even though Angeline had forgiven him, it was not easy for him to forgive himself. After all, how hard must it have been on Angeline to know that he had been unfaithful?Jay felt immensely guilty toward Angeline. Tears were welled up in his crimson eyes. He held her tightly but could not say a word.Angeline sensed how remorseful he was and patted him on the back, soothing him. “It’s alright now. I forgive you. Just try and avoid her from now on.”Jay said quietly, “Angeline, I might be having auditory hallucinations.”Angeline looked at him in astonishment. A considerable panic appeared in her eyes.Jay continued, “I don’t want you to worry about my body. But I don’t want you to misunderstand me even more. Jaybie is not a half-hearted person who’d be unfaithful.”It was the lesser of two evils!Jay chose to tell the truth because the truth would be less harmful to An
At noon, the servant came over to pass them a message.“Young Master Jay, today’s your older brother’s, Ron, death anniversary. The eldest madam is currently in mourning and feeling upset. Miss Judy is so distraught that she’s now outside, waiting to see you.”As soon as the servant was done talking, Jay rebuffed, “Go and tell her that I won’t be going out for the time being.”The servant looked at the relaxed Jay and Angeline and was slightly startled. However, she had no other option but to turn around and leave.Angeline had a compassionate heart and a frail mental state, but because of her exquisite and generous feelings, she could empathize with the sadness of others. At this moment, Angeline thought about how Chloe was a middle-aged woman who had experienced the feeling of her child dying before her. She must be in a mournful state of mind. As such, she took the initiative to propose, “Jaybie, the pain of losing a child is no better than being extremely sick or disabled. It
When Judy pushed Chloe to Château de Selene, they saw Angeline wearing a fiery red backless V-neck dress as she lay in Jay’s arms in a coy and graceful manner. Even Chloe and Judy were forced to admit that Angeline won by a landslide in terms of temperament and clothing. It was just that they were refusing to admit their shortcomings out loud. Jay was sitting on the bench, and Angeline was seated next to him. Her upper body was nestled in Jay’s arms as he gently combed through her hair with his fingers.Chloe and Judy both looked at each other.Their eyes were filled with doubt. Jay and Angeline did not look like they had just fought at all!“Jay.”When Chloe’s voice was heard at the garden’s entrance, there was a tremble in Jay’s body. He stared at the uninvited Chloe with palpitations.“Mom?” There was a strong expression of resistance in his eyes.Angeline sat up from his arms as she could sense his anxiety and tension. She tightened the grasp on her hand and gave him a be
They originally came here feeling excited, expecting to see Angeline being cruelly thrown aside by Jay. They never expected to see Jay pampering her so lovingly. Chloe and Judy stood there, embarrassed. They did not know whether they should stick around or leave. They were here as guests.As such, Angeline warmly and hospitably said to them, “Mom, since you’re already here, why don’t you have lunch with us?”Chloe proceeded to nod her head.Since she had come all the way here, she could not bring herself to leave with her tail between her legs. Angeline would see her as a joke.After the servants served their lunch, they moved to the dining room.Grand Old Master Ares deliberately came over for a meal as well because he was worried about Jay and Angeline’s quarrel. He wanted to see whether the young couple had made up.Seeing Chloe and Judy inside, Grand Old Master Ares’ expression turned somewhat darker.The five sat around a big round dining table while Jay and Angeline sa
“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
