One of the young men took out a bottle of concentrated sulfuric acid. He unscrewed the lid and intended to pour it on Judy's face. Judy shuddered in horror. Jay was about to destroy her beautiful face that she had always taken pride in. "Please, don’t!" She was a martial artist. Suddenly, she jumped, and the concentrated sulfuric acid went down her back. "Help!" Judy cried out tragically. Sandra and Chloe were frightened out of their minds when they saw what happened to Judy. "No!" Sandra's ribs were broken. She lay down on the ground, suffering heart-piercing pain. One of the mercenaries stepped on Chloe’s hand. Her hand became bloody and mangled. Grand Old Master Yorks looked at the violent scene, his face as pale as a ghost. He tried to stop it but was not sure how. "It’s karma. The Yorks family have sinned far too much and this is payback!" he screamed. Grand Old Master Yorks, Spencer Yorks, and Jordan Ares looked at the tragedy unfold… but they could
Only then did Jay know that Angeline had woken up. He was very surprised and immediately took Angeline over from Jens. Angeline nestled her head limply on his shoulder. Jay was moved and said, "Angeline, I'm fine." After giving Jenson a sideways glance, Jay left in a hurry with Angeline. Jenson walked into Fragrant Vessel Court. When he saw Chloe, Sandra, and Judy lying in a pool of blood and trying to catch their breaths, he said indifferently, "It seems that I arrived a little too early." They thought that they would be liberated with Jay gone. However, when they heard Jenson's cold and merciless words, their hearts fell into despair once again. Jenson was clear-headed and more ruthless than Jay. How would he let them off so easily? Jenson thought about it for a moment and said, "Lock them up. Get a doctor to attend to their injuries." Everyone was surprised and heaved sighs of relief. Jenson continued, "If they die, they can no longer serve as Daddy's punc
When Angeline, Grandma Boye, and Grandpa were dining together, Grandpa and Grandma Boye were teasing Jay.“Angeline, when you were ill, Jay couldn’t eat or sleep for days. He became taciturn and quiet and was particularly boring,” said Grandpa.“He was more than boring. He was like a walking dead puppy that didn’t speak or laugh. Whenever he approached, we could feel the air around him drop several degrees colder,” Grandma Boye added, “Plus, he argued with Chloe to such an extent that he was so upset we couldn’t blame him for having social anxiety.”Angeline was utterly shocked that she dropped the utensils in her hand. “What? His social anxiety is back?”When Jay was a child, he was known to be on the autistic spectrum.When relatives or friends chatted happily in front of him, he would stick to doing his own thing as if he was living in his own world.Fortunately, Boye was a doctor who could deal with these matters efficiently. “Angeline, the thing with your Jaybie happened not
Soon, the pharmacist carried a bag of medicinal herbs over and walked up to Jay before respectfully saying, “Mr. Ares, these are the herbs that you asked for.”“Thank you.”Jay took it and walked outside while holding Angeline’s hand.“Jaybie, where are we going now?” Angeline was deliberately looking for things to do and say.“Home.”“I don’t want to go home.”Jay stared at her. “Then, where do you want to go?”“Let’s head to a bar. I’m so old now yet I’ve never stepped foot inside,” Angeline said as she smiled.Ja stopped walking and looked straight at Angeline. He had the feeling that the girl was trying to get on his nerves today.However, looking at her current attire—the lace chiffon blouse and high-waisted mini skirt—it seemed like she was all ready to go to the bar. If he rejected her, she would probably feel disappointed, right?“Okay,” he responded.Angeline was extremely taken aback. If she had made such a request in the past, he would have severely reprimanded he
“Why are you deliberately trying to anger me today?” Jay asked. “I wasn’t planning on making you angry. It’s just that….”“Just what?” Jay asked again.“I just wanted you to reprimand me,” Angeline whispered.Jay was dumbfounded…His handsome face looked amused, and he reached his hand out to rub her hair. He said, “What’s going on in that head of yours? Are you delighted when Jaybie scolds you?”“Of course, I’m not. But Grandma said that you’ve become autistic again. So I have to find ways to make you talk more, right?” Angeline came clean.Jay, “...”“Are the two of you a couple of three-year-olds? How did you even come up with such a childish idea?”Angeline retorted, “Then, tell me why don’t you care anymore even though I’m wearing a mini-skirt? Is it because you’ve stopped caring about me?”Jay explained, “Au contraire, I care too much about your feelings. That’s why I didn’t want to stop you.”Afterward, Jay knocked on her forehead and said, “You’re not allowed to wea
“Jaybie, it’ll be difficult for me to forgive her, but I have no other option but to be lenient for you and the kids. After all, we’re responsible for practicing the past generation’s righteous and gentle ways. Moreover, a family like the Areses who lives under the public’s eyes will not tolerate even the slightest flaw.”Jay sat up straight and said in a deadpan manner, “I can do it without leaving a trace. I’ll not bring shame to the Ares family’s name.”Angeline touched his face. “I don’t want you to live in regret. And I don’t wish to sow seeds of hatred in our children’s minds.”Jay saw the worried look on her face, and he hugged her tightly in his arms. “The thing I regret the most in this lifetime is to have taught you to behave so well. If only you’re able to be more selfish or cruel, or perhaps love me a little less, you’ll not have suffered so many grievances.”Angeline smiled and said, “Actually, meeting you is the luckiest thing that has ever happened to me in my life
“Then, how are you planning on punishing her?” Grand Old Master Ares asked.Jay’s gorgeous face showed a cruel expression. “We’ll have to exterminate the weed from its root.”Grand Old Master Ares implied meaningfully, “Back then when your mother murdered your grandma, I was just like you. I wanted to choke her to death with all the rage I felt. But ultimately, I took your father into consideration and spared her life, locking her up in the underground palace instead...”Grand Old Master Ares said this in hopes that Jay would follow his approach and allow a path for Chloe to survive. At the same time, he would still leave some hope for those around her. Grand Old Master Yorks would still be able to see his daughter, and perhaps he would not be too grief-stricken. Jay shook his head. “Tourmaline Estate was built by Angeline, so this should be a clean and pure paradise for us.”Grand Old Master Ares smiled and asked, “Then, what do you plan on doing?”Jay said, “She’ll be banned f
Angeline was stifled with anger. “He’s getting more and more unreasonable now. He can’t even tolerate a rabbit?”Afterward, she glared fiercely at Zayne once more before scoffing angrily. She then turned around and left.Zayne fell to the ground. “It’s over. I’ve offended Angeline. She’s not in good health at the moment. Will she fall ill from anger?”Josie quickly gave him an idea. “Quick, call Big Brother now. He’ll find ways to calm Angeline down.”Zayne hurriedly took his phone out and called Jay.“Hello,” Jay said once the call was connected.Zayne quickly explained, “Where are you, Big Brother? Get home quickly and see how Angeline’s doing. That girl was crying aggrievedly earlier, and I’m afraid that her old illness will strike again. I can only ask you for help.”Jay retorted with a cold voice, “You made her cry?”Zayne replied, slightly lacking confidence, “You can’t pin all of this on me. You’re slightly responsible for this as well for fooling me. Josie ate your rabb
