“Jocelyn’s dead.”“Sage, please believe me. Her death has nothing to do with me!”At this moment, Ash suddenly raised his hand and landed a slap across Angeline’s face… He ferociously rebuked her, “Jocelyn’s dead, and I’ll make sure you’ll be buried with her.”Angeline covered her stinging and burning face… It was so painful that she could not help but gasp.However, she continued the scene and acted according to the script.…Once the rehearsal was done, Angeline stood up tremblingly from the ground. At this moment, she could hear the other actors’ mocking laughter.Angeline also heard someone ridiculing her. “She deserves it for getting the role through her backer.”A wicked smile also appeared on Ash’s thin lips.Only now did Angeline know that he was trying to humiliate her with the help of the script.It was true that Angeline had a delicate and soft personality, but she was still a girl who was pampered by others while growing up, so she was undoubtedly by no means timi
Angeline was missing Baby Zetty, so she was not in the mood to discuss work with Jay. After she hurriedly finished eating, she went ahead and drove to Horizon Colors. After not seeing Baby Zetty for a couple of days, it seemed like she had gotten even rounder. Angeline felt distressed when she noticed how much weight Baby Zetty was putting on with each passing day.However, she did not want to instill such a harmful frame of mind in Baby Zetty. Hence, she forced a smile and pretended to greet Baby Zetty with ease.“Hi, my baby. How are you doing?”Baby Zetty looked a little depressed. “Mommy, I’m gaining weight again.”Angeline sat down with Baby Zetty and placed her daughter’s head in her embrace. She whispered to her, “Don’t worry about it. You’ll lose your baby fat soon.”Baby Zetty looked at Angeline and asked innocently, “Mommy, will I continue gaining weight like this? I don’t feel very good nowadays. Will I turn into a big monster?”Angeline could not answer Baby Zetty
Tempest said, “Foster Father loves his daughter deeply. Other than considering Baby Zetty’s life and safety, he also took her innocence into account.”Angeline suddenly realized something.At the time, Jaybie had worried about the entire demise of the Ares family. Out of fear that Baby Zetty would end up an orphan, he handed Baby Zetty over to Finn, believing that Finn would never develop any other types of feelings toward Baby Zetty.Tempest smiled in a courteously warm manner and said, “Madam, all men desire beautiful and noble women. Baby Zetty is such a cute and beautiful child. Once she’s all grown up, it would be difficult for us common folk to guarantee that we wouldn’t fall for her.”Angeline’s heart felt a little sore as she said, “Your foster father failed to foresee that the Ares family would manage to stand tall and mighty under his protection. If he had expected that he was certainly able to come home, perhaps he wouldn’t have made such an arrangement.”Tempest was so
The Rolls-Royce proceeded to drive away.Baby Zetty suddenly opened her pair of jewel-like obsidian-colored eyes. She sat up, making a few rustling noises. She put on her shoes before walking outside.“Baby Zetty,” Tempest’s stern yet gentle voice sounded from behind her.Baby Zetty’s back stiffened slightly as she slowly turned around. Then, she squeezed a bitter smile at Tempest.“Come here.” Tempest beckoned to her to come over.Baby Zetty heaved a low sigh and walked toward Tempest, accepting her fate.Tempest extended his broad and gentle hand, holding her hand. He rubbed on it before asking softly, “Are you heading somewhere?”Tears flickered in Baby Zetty’s eyes as she said sorrowfully, “Brother Tempest, I want to go see him… Just a peek will do.”Tempest had an unpleasant expression on his face. Grayson, Storm, and he had discussed this matter, and they had reached a unanimous consensus. If Finn was not able to open his heart to accept Baby Zetty’s feelings, then they h
Baby Zetty broke down in tears. She sorrowfully sat on the sofa and cried in an utterly grief-stricken manner.Tempest pulled out some tissues and handed them to Baby Zetty while saying, “Wipe your tears. I’ll tie your Brother Finn up and bring him over. You can say anything you want directly to his face.”Baby Zetty took the tissues and nodded.Tempest sighed once more and turned around to walk outside.Baby Zetty heard the sound of the door opening and closing.The look in her eyes became more cryptic.Tempest went over and knocked on the front door.Finn was wearing his home slippers when he opened the door, looking drowsy. When he saw Tempest, he said rather sourly, “What are you doing? You come home in the dead of night, making a ruckus. Now, you’re preventing others from getting their sleep.”He glanced at Tammy’s room inside the villa and continued, “My sleep doesn’t matter as much, but Tammy has classes in the morning.”A dark look washed over Tempest’s handsome face
This little lady had turned from that innocent beautiful girl into a dull and unhealthy shell. Her mind had collapsed along with her body.Finn had no clue how to comfort Baby Zetty. He ultimately hugged her tightly and coaxed her aggrievedly, saying, “Brother Finn will help you find a cure, Zetty.”Baby Zetty’s bitter tears were welling up in her eyes. “I can’t be cured. The most I can do is only try to alleviate such a disease.”Her love had been buried by Finn himself with Tammy in the picture. How could her illness ever get better?“You’ll be cured. You have to be strong and learn from your mommy. She had severe depression and somatization disorder but look at her now, still standing strong and tall,” Finn gently comforted Baby Zetty.Tempest was standing at the door, gloomily looking at Finn and Baby Zetty.He wondered whether the decision he made during a moment of softheartedness would bring disastrous results or a blessing to Baby Zetty this time around?Baby Zetty said
Finn answered, “Need you ask?”Tammy smiled extremely bashfully, “Hahaha, I knew it.”It was just that she failed to notice how Finn was incessantly gazing out the door, looking restless.Tempest was about to drive Baby Zetty over to Horizon Colors, but Baby Zetty insisted on another destination. “I wanna go home, Brother Tempest.”Tempest realized that she must want to return to her father and mother’s side. Hence, he turned around and drove toward Tourmaline Estate.When they arrived at Tourmaline Estate, it was already five o’clock in the morning.Baby Zetty sat in the car as if she did not intend to go down.Tempest stared at Baby Zetty in a daze, wondering what she was thinking.Baby Zetty was looking out the car window, unable to take her eyes off the window of Mommy and Daddy’s room at Château de Selene.“Can’t seem to go down?” Tempest asked.Baby Zetty gave him an irrelevant answer, “I’m sorry, Brother Tempest. You didn’t get a good night’s rest today because of me.
“Daddy and Mommy,” Baby Zetty called out as she stood up.Angeline strode over to Baby Zetty and embraced her into her arms. She affectionately said, “You’re finally willing to come home, Baby Zetty.”Jay’s deep gaze instantly stared at Baby Zetty’s face without blinking. The child’s smile looked incredibly forced and stiff, and the dismal in her eyes was so intense that it could not be shaken off easily. Her quick-witted self was now merely a dull shell.Jay recalled Tempest’s warning and felt his heart grow tense.The kid was truly abnormal.Angeline pulled Baby Zetty to sit down and said while smiling, “Stay here for a couple of days, baby. You can keep Daddy and Mommy company.”Baby Zetty nodded at her stiffly.At this moment, the quiet Jay interrupted their conversation, “What are your plans for the future, Baby Zetty?”Baby Zetty’s fingers jerked at the thought. It was as if someone had stepped on her sore spot. It took a while for Baby Zetty to calm her agitated emotions
