Angeline felt sorry for her child, and when she noticed how cheerless Baby Zetty was and how she was overeating every day, it felt as though she was on the verge of collapsing.Angeline was experienced in this, so she knew very well that the one who started the trouble should be the one to end it. In fact, only Finn could save Baby Zetty now.However, Jay was intentionally keeping Baby Zetty’s matters a secret. Angeline understood his intentions and knew that he did not wish to use his own daughter to blackmail Finn because in Jay’s opinion, love was serious and sacred, fair and great. He had no right to stop Finn from making his own choice.Helpless, Angeline brought Baby Zetty to Carefree Garden.When Grandma Boye saw Angeline, she began chattering and complaining, “I heard that the two old cunning foxes, Dylan and Noel, set you up? Is it true that you accepted their emblems?”Angeline replied, “Jaybie said that my body is weak and I shouldn’t work too hard, therefore he handed
Grandma Boye took Baby Zetty's hand and said, “If you’re interested to take up my mantle, Baby Zetty, then I will teach you everything.”“Mm.”Angeline looked at Boye in astonishment and used a very long time to come back to her senses.Had she just sold off her daughter?Angeline glared at Boye and teased, “Grandma, I won’t know how to explain this to Jaybie when I get back.”The old man laughed. “Do you even need to explain it to him? He listens to you the most. You can just call out to your Jaybie sweetly and he will come running to you, eager to spoil you.”Angeline looked at Baby Zetty. Her calm and unresponsive demeanor made her head hurt. She sighed constantly, saying, “Jaybie loves his daughter the most. He has never planned Jenson and Baby Robbie’s futures for them but has drawn out a plan for Baby Zetty’s life.“Baby Zetty doesn’t need to work too hard, nor does she need to worry about food and clothing. Jaybie has saved a lot of money for her, bought land for her, and
Angeline looked sheepishly at Jay. “Well, actually, Grandma Boye does have a solution.”However, she was worried that Jay would not allow it.Jay eyed Angeline suspiciously. “Oh? Let’s hear it, then.”Angeline said with an extremely soft voice, "She has managed to divert Baby Zetty's attention."Jay figured that it was a good thing to have Baby Zetty’s attention diverted, though when he saw how crestfallen Angeline looked, he could tell that Grandma Boye must have asked Baby Zetty to do something unusual.He waited silently for Angeline to continue. Angeline hesitated for a fleeting moment before saying to him awkwardly, “Jaybie, Baby Zetty has decided to take up Grandma Boye’s mantle.”Jay was momentarily stunned.A hint of disappointment flashed across his mesmerizing face. “This child has always stood aloof from worldly affairs. Even if she only learns a smidgen of knowledge, she can still make a good career out of being a physician in Grand Asia next time. Baby Zetty is inte
Finn said, “We can sign a contract. You can clean my bathroom, feed my pets, and cook for me when I’m home. I’ll pay you 10,000 bucks a month.”Tammy’s jaw dropped. 10,000 bucks a month?Holy moly, this was a good deal that even not many of her seniors could get.Tammy quickly snapped back to reality and closed her gaping mouth. She darted Finn a sidelong glance. “I don’t believe you.”Finn stretched out his hand. "Give me your phone."Tammy handed him her mobile phone, and Finn transferred 60,000 bucks to her account immediatelyTammy looked at the amount on her phone, repeatedly checking the number of zeros before looking at Finn in astonishment.“Do you want to do it or not?”“Yes.” Tammy nodded.At this moment, the doorbell rang.Finn ordered Tammy, "Go get the door."Tammy staggered over to open the door. Standing outside the door was a fine-looking yet cold and elegant man dressed in a smart suit.“I’m here to see Finn," Tempest said.There was a polite smile on his
Tempest raged, yelling, “You could always wait for Baby Zetty if you liked her, just like how Sir Ares had waited for Madam to grow up back then.”Finn exclaimed in an exaggerated manner, “Foster Father is only six years older than Madam. I’m 12 years older than Baby Zetty. She’s just like a little baby to me. I can never regard her as my life partner.”Tempest pointed at the door. “Tammy, the girl outside the door, is just a kid too, isn’t she?”"She’s an adult, at least," Finn said.Tempest stood up. “I understand now. You like Tammy, not Baby Zetty, right?"Finn fell silent.Tempest walked toward the door, and when he got there, he suddenly turned back to say, “I think you ought to know that Baby Zetty is sick.”A flash of panic emerged on Finn’s good-looking face. Concern was written all over his face. “What illness is it? Is it serious?"Tempest replied, “Binge eating disorder.”Finn's eyes were filled with confusion. “Why does she suddenly have a binge eating disorder? S
Storm said, “You know better than anyone how much Baby Zetty likes you. How could you go out on a date with someone else in front of her? Don’t you feel sorry for Sir Ares and Madam at all?”Finn recalled the day he went shopping with Tammy at the mall. He had vaguely sensed Baby Zetty’s presence, but he did not see her when he looked around.Was Baby Zetty actually around when he flirted with Tammy that day?Finn was engulfed in self-blame. He pulled at his hair in agony and said with a guilty conscience, “I didn’t mean to hurt Baby Zetty. She’s just a kid to me. Besides, I’m not that young anymore and I, too, long to find someone I love. I want to have a family of my own and enjoy the warmth of my own family just like Foster Father.”Finn’s honesty touched Grayson and Storm’s hearts.They were all orphans who had been abandoned by their parents since childhood. Although Jay had adopted them, they were still haunted by the shadows of being abandoned.It was because of that Grays
Tammy was generous enough to share the story of her first love with him, saying, “I once had a crush on a boy who felt the same way for me, but we were both too young and our parents were strongly against us dating each other. As a result, my parents locked me in the house and I spent my days crying—even to the point where I tried to end my life…”Tammy raised her wrist and revealed a scar, saying, “Look, I almost killed myself once. But I regretted it as soon as the knife sliced through and blood gushed out of the wound. All of a sudden, death seemed scarier than heartbreaks.“After that day, my parents released me, and I went to that boy’s house only to find him kissing another girl. I thought my world was falling apart at the time.“I cried the entire way home and cried secretly for half a month without my parents knowing. I eventually learned that scumbags like that don’t deserve my tears.”Tammy shrugged, looking carefree and breezy as though she was telling someone else’s sto
When Angeline noticed the sharp increase in her daughter’s weight, making her turn from a white swan to an ugly duckling, she could roughly guess what was troubling Baby Zetty.She walked over and pulled Baby Zetty into her arms gently.“Mommy.” Baby Zetty cried her heart out in her arms. “They all laughed at me and called me a beast! I don’t want to go to school anymore."Angeline’s tears rained down her face.She gently patted Baby Zetty's back and felt the child quivering. She could tell how helpless her daughter was feeling.“Okay, if you don’t want to go to school, then you don’t have to.” Education might be important to Angeline, but it was nothing compared to safeguarding her child’s dignity.Baby Zetty said, “Daddy won’t agree to it.”Angeline said, “I'll talk to him.”Baby Zetty complained in distress, “I don’t want to be like this either, Mommy, but I can’t stop myself from eating all the time or I'll be very, very unhappy.”Tears welled up in Angeline’s ethereal-loo
